You need to be able to care for yourself before you can care for a pet. I stand by my advice and suggest that since she is young, and has no children, it would also be a good idea to acquire a set of skills that are marketable, and will enable her to provide a home for herself, and others. |
I do not believe for one minute that Nancy or anyone else is judging the OP. If we were smarter, we would actually see the importance and wisdom of Nancy's words. And in fact, Nancy has been the only one in this thread who has actually provided helpful advice rather than a 'pat on the shoulder'
I could say more on the subject - but I will leave it unsaid because it would be a lot harsher than anything else anyone has said already. Obviously the OP doesnt care for real advice - or even advice pertaining to "option C" - which makes me wonder why she would have even posted it. I'm going to stop here.
