The relationship between animals and children is a very special one, especially the bond that forms between children and dogs. Pet has influence on children. Children need to know they are loved unconditionally and consistently, and sometimes the only place they can get this is from their pets. So, children should have pets for three reasons.
First, pets also teach children social behavior. Dogs, in particular, provide sympathy, love, and security to children. They will watch how parents treat the family pet, and that's how they will treat it. Pets can show how to make friends. For example, teaching proper care for the family dog is a great way to teach children about appropriate behavior and respect for others.
Second, teaching children about the cycle of life. Children can learn birth from puppy. They will know death when pets died or know sadness and they will understand cycle of life.
Finally, while caring for pets definitely teaches responsibility. Children should only be given jobs they can handle. They must do given jobs with pets. For example, walking the dog
but children should never be allowed to walk the dog alone , watering or feeding of a pet, etc..
In conclusion, because pets have influence on children. Teach children many things. Therefore, children should have pets. What do you think about children should have pets?
