Oh, God, that is so bent. Your pet’s mommy?!!

I get OP’s confusion. I love my dogs but do not refer to them as children - four legged or otherwise.

Why does this trigger you?
Stop parroting “triggering”, PP, especially when you’re clearly using it incorrectly. OP wrote clearly that she/he didn’t immediately process what the person meant. That’s not triggering, dear, it’s confusion. Four-legged children is a weird way to talk about a dog and a strange visual (a child with four legs).
Sure. If you’re mentally deficient.

My children are fairly independent teens who have a good sense of self and who will be going away to college and beyond.
My babies will stay dependent on us and will always require a certain level of care.
Why can’t they just be your beloved pets? But, fwiw, “babies” isn’t as weird as “children”. There are “baby animals”; there are no “animal children”.

They're pets, not babies. You sound very immature when you say that. Grow up.
