I'm just saying that I don't think age brings about better care/responsibility for pets...I just think some people have an affinity towards animals and others do not and never will. Not trying to insult anyone...I just don't like the generalizations made of those of us that are younger...I think we should be measured by the same ruler of responsibility as those of you that are older  |
Haha! You're right. So you take the people who have a natural affinity towards animals, and you'll find varying levels of commitment.
I was mistaken, as I feel I have become a better pet owner over the years just from experience. I am more commited now, but that only happened because I have 'more' to be committed to, since my pack has increased to 4.
I was very unsettled at that age, in all aspects of my life. And my plans changed many times... and still do, just not as often, and with more restrictions and commitments to be taken into consideration.
Also, at my age, everybody is younger than me! Lol! (I think LJ might be older than me though)
