You ladies want to hold out some kind of moral superiority for the way you love your children and are acting as though you are blind to the obvious reality that billions of people don’t love their kids all that much or else we wouldn’t have billions of abused and formerly abused children walking this earth.

‘Love’ is a feeling created by hormones and neurons in a complex reaction in the human brain. There is nothing moral about it.

Of course humans can experience the same exact complex reaction in their brains about animals or other humans unrelated to them etc.

Just like spawning doesn’t automatically compel a human to healthy parenting, it doesn’t automatically confer a greater capacity for experiencing ‘love’ in the human brain than exists in human brains whose bodies never spawn. All certitude to the contrary is just made up social convention BS, no matter how vehemently you believe it or preach it.

Science, ladies.

👆🏽👆🏽👆🏽Exactly this.

A lot of the mothers on this website have this inherent need to use their motherhood as a throne upon which they sit and judge other women.

It reeks of insecurity, and it’s just stupid.

Cope.

I kind of need to know if you truly believe the grief and loss is the same level between one’s dog and one’s child dying, or if you’re just playing devils advocate and enjoy arguing.

If you just like arguing and debating, I might gently suggest that you not choose trolling grieving mothers and equating their loss to a pet dying. Choose a different topic, there are tons of threads to choose from. It’s so hurtful it’s kind of beyond what I can describe in words. But it takes my breath away.

For that PP who said it was? Yes.

That’s all anyone is debating.

You folks are making it a proclamation about your love for your kids.

It’s not.

“It takes my breath away” is so ridiculously dramatic.

Sorry that you think my breath being taken away from someone comparing the loss of their schnauzer to the loss of my Fing baby takes my breath away, yes. I hope you burn in hell. My baby will be watching you from heaven.

She didn’t do that, PP.

I hope you get the peace you need.

I do NOT want you to burn in hell.

Ummmm one poster is definitely doing that up and down this thread. Jeff should really delete them

I don’t recall anyone comparing The loss of their own dog to the loss of that PP’s baby.

That said, the PP above wants me to burn in hell. She should step away from the board because it’s obviously too much for her right now.

Damn girl! You’re cold!

Please never ever say this out loud to someone who has lost a child

People like PPs do not have children, and therefore believe their love for a pet is a close facsimile. It is not, and obviously those of us who do have kids (and pets) know this.

I actually laughed out loud.

nO oNe UnDeRsTanDs ExCePt Us.

Yes, chimps, rats, and every other live-birthing mammal understands. Weird flex, but……Congrats?

That’s beside the point. The first PP formed a strong bond with her dog, and she’s mourning. She has no reason to say that to a parent who lost their child.

[NP]

She literally said that her pain is no less than than the pain of a parent who loses a young child. Without sarcasm.

She said HER pain was no less because it was a dog and not a human. She did not compare her pain to anyone else’s or make any judgments about how other people feel. Everyone is not the same. She is explaining HER feelings, which she is entitled to, as you are entitled to yours.

She said, and I quote, “my pain was no less because it was a dog”. Meaning, no less than the pain of losing a human child. She literally made a 1:1 comparison. I’m sorry, but that is messed up.

Yes, she was talking about how she felt. She felt the same pain as if it were a human family member. She’s relaying her experience. It doesn’t have to be the same as your experience or mine or anyone else’s.

It’s gross.

It would be like me saying I lost my favorite earrings on the metro and I’m devastated about the loss.

If she can say her pain over losing a dog is “no less” than the pain of losing a child, then would it also be okay for me to insist my sadness over my lost property is “no less” than her pain over her lost property (the dog.)

That might be true. Those earrings might have such sentimental value to you that the pain of losing them rivals the pain of someone else losing their dog. It’s not a competition. People feel what they feel.

Exactly.

Who am I to say that those earrings don’t hold a special meaning? They could’ve belonged to a dead loved one.

Personally, the PP feeling equal loss over her earrings as I felt for my (hypothetical) dog wouldn’t bother me at all. Of course, I’m well adjusted.

”It’s not a competition.” Nicely stated, PP.

True but the title of the thread literally asks if you love your kids more than your dog, hence all the comparisons being made between dogs and kids on here.

Yes, and the PP answered about her love for her dog.

The PPs making her comment about everyone’s love for their kid have completely lost the plot.
