It's very difficult for me to imagine anyone more irresponsible than a 21 year old who is in a situation that needs to rehome not just 1 but 2 pets. I just turned 23 and I can barely manage my time to do things for myself. When *I* know that my workload is absolutely consuming I take Teddy to daycare...sometimes up to 4 times a week, which is pretty taxing on a graduate student stipend. If she really wanted to she could make it work...I highly doubt she has less disposable income than I do. Unless she doesn't work, which given things like Ebay it's not difficult to find a way to make some money on the side to take care of your dog. I'm sorry, but the whole her being "young" thing thrown around here just angers me because age is not an excuse for not thinking things through. She clearly didn't think long-term she only thought short-term. |
