I have never cracked open an egg and pretended to hatch a santa clause.

Listen, lady, if you live in DC anoles aren't native to here. The furthest North they live is North Carolina.

I actually work promoting animal welfare....I went to grad school for it. Your ignorance is shocking.


If you went to grad school I hope they taught you how to read.

Think of it as releasing it to its natural habitat.

Everything we do with our kids teaches them our values. You are essentially telling your DD that instead of stuffed animals that are toys, you can use live animals for your amusement.

If you want to experience wildlife, go for a freaking nature walk in a park. You might learn something.

Or keep the anole as a pet. They are super easy to take care of and you can model RESPONSIBILITY.

Why should I keep it as a pet? It's a wild animal that survives perfectly well out in the wild. He will have a better life outside the house than being our pet.

You people never use animals for your amusement? Never go to the zoo? Or circus? Or never bought pets? Never eat them? Don't wear leather? Please save you breath.

Nope to literally everything you said. I detest zoos and the circus for the reasons expressed here, I don't eat meat and haven't for 31 years, don't wear leather, and don't keep pets. So I can still call you an idiot? Well, I just did. I guess I don't need your permission. You don't buy an animal just to throw it away outside. You're beyond deranged.

She's been waiting for it to hatch. Is there something I can buy at a pet store that I can pretend hatched and release it out into the back yard?


What's wrong with the crocodile idea? I mean, you did bring it up. Time to make good!
P.S. You're an idiot.

These seem like very odd values you have in your house.


My 13 yo sporty boy sleeps with a large brown bear. PP, you sound like a peevish dullard.


I know! My 12 y.o. sleeps with her special teddy bear…

Let's be clear: This isn't to amuse her snowflake, this is to cover up her own lie.

OP, just own up to the truth. Tell your daughter you were playing when you said acted like something would hatch from a glass egg. It's a valuable lesson for your daughter that adults can't always be taken at face value.
