Newsflash! Your dog doesn't have to go EVERYWHERE with you!

[SundaeAfternoon]

While it is a cute thing to say and I can appreciate the affection for the animal...legally, it is not your son no matter how many times you insist that it is. It is a domesticated pet.

Again, your opinion.

I'm so confused why it bothers you and other people so much. How does my affection for my dog affect you, really?

Do you have a legal citation that disputes your "opinion" and claims it to be "fact".

Again--i have no issues with what you wish to call your dog, but you are claiming that your dog and someone else's dog is in fact something when all it is is a token of affection.

I have no problems with you calling it by a token of affection.

I have problems if you insist to me that your dog is your child and "I" must accept such a thing.

So if it is your child--please produce the legal back up before telling me that what I am stating as legal fact is just an opinion.

And the key word is child/son/daughter that you are looking for.

I don't have to prove anything to you, and I don't give a darn what you or any other narrow-minded individual thinks. My dog is my child. Period.

While you are entitled to your opinion...it is very much legally inaccurate.


IOW--you are wrong, but enjoy it as you say--you can call your dog your chimpanzee for all I care. It does not make it so.

Are you high? Did your dog come out of your uterus or from an adoption agency? When you get old and go to the hospital, they will not be calling your dog for informed consent to treat you. It's alright to call him that but it does not make it a fact. That's all she's saying.

I'm glad you are a loving pet owner. All dogs deserve a loving home.

So do you feel the same way about same sex couples? I guess in your opinion what they have is not real because they are not legally legit?

LOL I am wrong? Oh honey....

She obviously isn't talking that the dog is legally her child, she's clearly speaking about her emotions/feelings. Why antagonize her with this? There's really no point, why not allow her to have her feelings and just leave it at that.

Wow....you people are so ignorant it's insane.

You need serious help.

 

[mom2boys77]

Seriously. Big time.

You need serious help.

I know that and acknowledged that.

But she siad I stated an opinion and I clearly wasn't at the time. She chose to engage and prove that her pet is her child and has now dragged in human issues. I simply said, legally it wasn't--and she decided to carry on a pitiful argument to prove she was right.

Sorry--she's entitledto her opinion, but me stating it isn't legally a child--isn't any less fact just b/c she loves her pooch so much she considers it as such.

If anyone is antagonizing--

 

[SundaeAfternoon]

Oh, I'm so hurt.

Again, you are comparing PEOPLE to ANIMALS. Legally recognized or not- same sex couples are COUPLES. Now if a man were to claim his DOG was his WIFE

She obviously isn't talking that the dog is legally her child, she's clearly speaking about her emotions/feelings. Why antagonize her with this? There's really no point, why not allow her to have her feelings and just leave it at that.

I wonder if she is one of those who would choose the life of her "son" over her neighbors human child- it seems she is.

Of course I would.

 

[Mermaid02]

Of course I would.

You would seriously save your DOG (whose lifespan is MAYBE 16 years) over the life of your neighbors human baby? THAT IS SO TWISTED I CAN'T EVEN PUT IT IN WORDS.

You can't be serious??

Of course I would.

You two aren't talking about the same thing. She isn't insisting the dog is legally her child, she's talking about how she feels. Trying to negate her feelings by saying it's not a legal term doesn't change how she feels about her dog. You are correct, the dog is not legally her child. She knows that, you win that point, but that will not change how she feels so why persist in proving that? It just comes across as mean, perhaps that is not your intention but that is how it sounds.

I don't think she does know that. After all, Fido gets in the lifeboat and baby Sally gets to drown.
