    I love how everyone worships dogs. Most dogs I’ve met are exciting as fuck, they play constantly, run around everywhere and jump with you. I fully understand that this is a dog lover problem, but damn, dogs are special.

    Kids are similar, they are exciting, dirty, loud, playful, etc… Again, this is usually due to being human.

    Most dog owners and parents are probably having a great time being dog owners and parents.

    I hate how everyone worships dogs. Most dogs I’ve met are annoying as fuck, they bark constantly, shit everywhere and jump on you. I fully understand that this is a dog owner problem and not the dogs fault. But why are dogs so special?

    Kids are similar, they are annoying, dirty, loud, ungrateful, etc… Again, this is usually due to bad parenting but they don’t seem to get the free pass dogs do.

    Most dog owners and parents should not be dog owners or parents.

    Edit’: The replies I’m getting to this comment are proving my point. You all care so much about dogs that you automatically assume anyone who doesn’t train them properly is an asshole. Maybe the problem is the fact that having a dog and barely training or caring for them is considered socially acceptable. Most people are not ready to take the time required to properly train a dog. We should be discouraging these people from getting one. Instead everyone just fucking goes on and on about how great dogs are. No shit everyone wants one…

              Bro what. Assholes who don’t train their dogs sounds exactly like what is causing your complaints. How is this a stretch?

              As for the kids thing, I don’t want them personally either. But it’s not like every kid I’ve ever met annoys me or pisses me off. That also comes down to how they’re raised

      If you have a dog and see him daily and play with him then you will understand. Or you just don’t like dogs which is fine.

        No I wouldn’t. Do you seriously think that me having a dog would change the way I feel about other peoples poorly trained dogs?

        I have kids myself and still can’t stand most other kids.

      Tell me you don’t have a dog or a kid without telling me you don’t have a dog or a kid.

      I have both, 3 years ago I had neither. I get where you’re coming from, but it’s a bit ignorant to assume (dog)parents wouldn’t put that dog/kid on a pedestal. It’s what they live for.

        I have kids. I do everything in my power to make sure they don’t turn out like I described. It’s a lot of fucking work and most people aren’t willing to do it. My spouse works in a daycare. Parents these days do not parent. They just want to be labeled as one.

          Parents these days aren’t any different, not really. Having kids is the default life path for most people, so of course a good percentage are gonna suck at it.
