Re: Interesting secret thread

[(Anonymous)]

When I was little, I had a tiny fishtank and would buy one or two of those cheap little fish from the pet store for it every so often. I'd almost always forget to feed it after a few days and not care when it died because I'd just get another one. Whenever I think about it, I still feel so guilty and terrible for all the fish I made suffer and die. Sometimes I cry about it. I was young, like I said, but I don't think I was too young to know better.

Honestly, unless you were twelve, and I'm guessing you weren't, I think it's understandable. (But why did your parents let you keep dong it?) Even if you understood that it had died, you weren't old or maybe even mature enough to understand the ramifications. And that's part of it too - some kids mature faster than others. Apparently you were not ready for a pet.

Honestly I think my mom might feel as bad about it as I do. I've never reminded her of it, but for as long as I can remember she's been the kind of person who spends forever catching bugs in the house to let them out instead of squashing them, and slows down when there's a squirrel in front of the car. Maybe the fish were an eye opener for her too and that's why she's like that now. I was never punished for them, though.

That wasn't great, but this more on your parents than you, IMO.

This is how I feel, too. Putting kids, even young teens, but especially younger kids in charge of pets is fucking stupid. Parents should always take responsibility for the animals' safety and welfare. It's their job to monitor both the animal and how the kid interacts with that animal.

I'm sorry :( Developing empathy is part of growing up and not everyone achieves it. I'm glad you did.
