Comparing/Treating Pets as Human Babies
Posted : 23 Jul, 2011 09:59 PM

When someone refers to their pet as their baby, treats their pet as their baby, or compares having a pet to parenthood I just get so riled up! To me the mere notion so belittles and demeans the incredible miracle of human life made in the image of God and the incredible blessing and responsibility it is to have a child and to raise him in a way that is honoring to God.

Don't get me wrong, I love animals and I even think pets can be considered part of the family though in a much different and lesser sense than a human family member.

I realize that most people who do compare their pets to human babies don't intend to belittle the value of a human baby or being the parent of a human child, but to me there just seems to be no way around it.

Your thoughts?

What really is the problem is when people start treating their children as pets.
