I would never say that in reference to one of my children, so I would never say that about one of my dogs. It's just not ethical. It's called a credit card. |
I don't like to hear that either and in 'good times' that could be an excuse that would bother me but with the economy the way it is, I think we will be hearing more of this from members who maybe have lost a home or job and not telling us the entire story so let's try to keep an open mind.
