Daisy Mae started the thread by stating "Some people are so mean"; "think about things before taking action"; "think before you hit send". You stated "I am not advocating offensiveness or being ignoble"; that is what lidarose is saying we should agree with. I think the thread started off well, but just like a lot of threads it has gotten off topic a few times. | |

I had the same thing happen to me when I posted that I had to rehome a pet, as a consequence of that.. its really hard to post on here as often as I used to. I still remember each and every person who said nasty things to me, and it really hurt. So thank you for this thread.

) but I don't like being told that I will change my mind about something. I'm pretty stubborn and don't change my mind too often once I decide something...actually I'm REALLY stubborn LOL (just ask my Dad ).

| Had the same problem when I bought a handicapped and sick puppy, so people are mean whether you have to rehome a dog or whether you try to help one. Some people are just like that, I guess.

| i personally can completely respect and appreciate those who do not want to have children..and don't. I would rather you be honest about how you feel and not have the kids than to have them and turn out to be a bad parent. NOW...those of you on here saying you do not want kids...i'm not saying you would be a bad parent...i'm only saying i know some people personally that should never have had kids ![]() Quote:

| whoa! Very heated discussion. MyFairLacy, you have every right to your opinion. I hope and pray that you NEVER have to make a choice. It's a horrible, painful thing to have to do. My issue was not that you are so sure YOU will never have to rehome a pet. It's the statement you made that you "don't feel sorry for the human, just the pet". That was a cruel thing to say. Sorry. That's the truth. Nine years ago when we got Rusty, two and a half years ago when we got Tucker, a year and a half ago when we got Maddie....we thought we'd have them forever. Life didn't work out that way. The dogs are doing great in their new homes. Megan and I, well......

did anyone stick to the topic??? I agree with LORI (and with her dog Daisy Mae) ... I just did not understand why someone said something about never having children, not wanting to have children, and having to rehome a puppy .... does your friend (whom you are defending, I think) have a baby who is allergic to her dog? is that what this is about??? I do not mean to be offensive, I was just baffled. I guess that can happen when a thread gets so long and there are so many diversions .... but I am not the enemy. I did not even voice an opinion. Bless you all ... (dogs, babies, tubal ligations, hysterectomies and everything else mentioned) and if MyFairLacy does not want to have children, at least she knows what she wants or does not want. bless her heart also .... I agree, do not be mean to others .... and I might add the golden rule ... do unto others, etc etc and so on.....

| WOW! 220 something posts in less than half a day! Ya'll 'discuss' things like my family. Its gonna take all day and in the end there are gonna be people who are hurt but there will also be people who have grown and even some relationships that are stronger. Here is how I feel about rehoming. YT members are family to me. Lets say my sister was pregnant and could not take care of the baby and was talking about putting he/she up for adoption. I would do WHATEVER was necessary to support her and the baby (even if that meant giving the baby a new loving home myself), because I would never want to see her hurt like that. Thats probably why members who HAVE to rehome come here to YT first. Because they know that their YT FAMILY will do everything possible to support them and create a solution to the problem. I can honestly say that I don't know what I would do if I was in a situation where I might have to think about rehoming but I can tell you what my family would do. They would do everything possible to protect me and Jamie because he is an extension of me now. JUST like my skin baby's will be in the future. In conclusion, I love you guys because everytime I get on here its like having Sunday dinner at my moms but not QUITE as loud!
