I understand being a pet lover, as I raised many dogs growing up and truly truly truly love pets. However after having partially raised a few humans, I have come to the conclusion that they are not comparable endeavors.

That said, I will never express that opinion out loud. In general, hearing someone compare raising kids to raising a puppy doesn't drive me crazy or anything... it just makes me think: if only kids were that easy!

Do you have friends where if you bring up your kids, they bring up similar stories about their pets?
