What's the difference between adopt a child and getting a pet?
I have a hard time seeing much of a difference. Both are born from different families. You pilfer care of and love them both and they are part of your family.
Weird grill, yes. Any thoughts?
your joking right? One leading difference is that (while I have adopted both) my son is human and my dog is not! While Harley (dog) is covered in fur - J is not. While I can report J I love him and hear it in return - Harley just pants beside a slight smile on his face. I can see the accomplishments and milestones that J makes - but can only coach Harley a few "tricks". And I think the biggest difference is that one people can give "birth" to and the other not!
Is this question for real?
Big difference between adopting a pet and a child. Pets lately want to be loved and looked after whereas children are a huge responsibilty. Children need emotional and physical security, to be driven, to be treated with the same respect as non adopted children. I could travel on but that would get boring.
If you're adopt a kitten or a puppy, it's recommended that they stay with their mothers for at least 6 weeks.
Human beings are ripped from their mothers at birth.
"I have a hard time seeing much of a difference."
You tight besides the fact that most pets are fluffy, covered in fur, walk on four legs and non-verbal, while children are not? Can I respectfully request that you never own children, adopted or otherwise. Kinda sucks for you that you're a bit dim.
"Weird question, yes. Any thoughts?"
Besides the fact that you're a moron? Not really. Source(s): Adoptive/foster mum.
If you go by the behavior of my child's former adopters, then here IS no difference. In fact, they treated their dog better than they treated the children the adopted.
Similarity: Someone buys a genetically-unrelated stranger -- same whether it is a dog or a human.
Difference: dog and cat moms go and get to keep their babies and nurture them for several weeks. Human mothers are forced/pressured/ made to surrender their infants right at birth. Society and adoption agencies don't give them a chance -- the "rights" and "needs" of the prospective adopters to enjoy a "womb-fresh infant" supercede those of the mother, who merits no protection, no-one to speak up for her love for her baby. No-one informs her that she has the right to recover from birth, near ALL the resources she requires to keep her baby, before making any decision.
Difference: animals at least come with papers showing their REAL ancestry. Adoptees come with papers fake their birth records, stating that the strangers who adopted them gave birth to them. And they're expected to be self-satisfied with this. It's a felony offence to falsify elected representatives records -- unless you are hiding an adoptee's ancestry from them.
Oh yeah, the price is different too. You can buy a pure-bred dog for $400-1000. Buying a human costs $20,000 or more on average if you want a "white" one, less if you want an African-American or Hispanic. I guess it's because you can then pretend you give birth to the human. More value that way -- it can replace the child of your own that you wanted to hold. No matter how much you love your dog, you cannot pretend you gave birth to it or wave around fake birth records stating you did (and in ALL states, fake birth history are issued when an adoption takes place).
The definition of "adoption" is the same, but hello... a human is very different than a pet. For one, I can't for the duration of my potty train my golden retriever.
But if you come into this section, say something the "anti's" disagree with, they'll TELL you to adopt a puppy instead. Stupid. They're the ones bringing it to the table, really.
kids cost more and pets are more grateful
Pets aren't sentient, and if it doesn't work out you can take them to a shelter. Kids...um, no. I don't think anyone who doesn't see a difference should be having kids contained by any way - natural or adopted.
If you have to ask this question you should probably not raise any.
Pets come with adjectives their paperwork and can trace their ancestry back further than the average adopted human. Source(s): Secret Identity is a violation of human rights. Even pets enjoy more info of their origins
adopt an animal means that you adopted a pet, not a person. if you adopt a child, then you have to take more responsibility and shift through more paperwork.
There is NO comparison. Get a pet only.
Answers: Weird question, NO
Stupid Question, YES!
Only a person with a LOW IQ would enjoy a problem with seeing a difference. So are you getting enjoyment out of admitting to the world that you are truly slow? Source(s): the indentation speaks for itself.
EXCUSE ME? You are comparing a human with an animal? There is a huge difference, my friend. A child is a human that you want to parent. A pet is an animal you want to have to relish. You cannot really mean you think it is the same item? I am an animal lover- I have a dog and 2 cats, however, my 2 adopted children are much more important than the 3 animals. How could you suppose that there is any similarity at all?
The difference is adopt people are human.
Pets are great, but they aren't our children, or substitutes for children-- they're loving companion animals. Providing care to a pet is vastly different from raising a child to be an independent, moral, intelligent fully developed.
Equating pets and children diminishes the value of both, because they are different and each have special upright qualities.
Get a life span! I feel sorry for you that you can not see a difference between a 4 legged furry pet and an actual human being!
What is the difference between you and a pig? Think about it!
