I agree and I also dissagree, I say this b/c I have seen many small kids with small pets and some do fine have learned how to handle a small pet But theres some small kids that get over joyed when seeing a small pet and come running very loudly and picking up the puppies the wrong way. So i think it all depends on the kids. If they have been taught and learned that a small pet is not a toy and to be very gentle, But there are some kids that one minute they are petting it so gentle then the next trying to run thru the rooms with it. So it all depends on the children.My kids learned at a very young age how to treat a small pet. My sisters kids , I would not trust them with a small pet not even today and they are now teens lol.
