I have never believed that a child should be made to take care of a family pet. Out pets always belonged to the family. The children shared in the caring and joys of the animal. I do believe that children should grow up with domestic pets from an early age. In that way they learn to love animals and to be tender and gentle with them. That is far more important than giving a child more responsibility that he is emotionally ready for.

The point is she doesn’t want one more thing to take care of that is supposed to be the responsibility of someone else.

He has to go to work every day. Her mother lives at home, which means she has someone to share the chores. She’s a witch.
