I don't have kids but mine are around kids, my bf has a niece and she was 6 when i got them. Because of them she learned to be very gentle, she used to be so loud and rowdy. But now every time she sees them she lowers her voice, talks in a little baby voice and is so sweet to them, she loves them. I also have a 1 yr old niece that is learning to be around them. She is sooo gentle with them, she won't pull their hair or anything. She will just softly pet them and smile. And i have a little sister that was 7, and she learned tons about them. I think me having them around these kids has been a learning experience for them all and teaches them how to love animals and be kind. |
