As a mom, how often do you hear this question? At my house, this is a daily question. I never grew up with pets. My husband grew up with a ton of them. Right now, we use to have fish (and we are getting a little fish tank next week). That is the only pet Madison has known.
She asks all the time for a dog or a cat. However, she does ask if we can keep the rabbits, squirrels, ants, chipmunks, and pretty much anything else she sees on the ground. If she’s sees a commercial for an animal on TV, she has to have it. She’ll even go as far as pausing the tv (we have a dvr, so she can do that) to make sure we see it! Yes, I think she needs a pet. However, we are often gone on the weekends which does not make our house too pet friendly. I am also allergic to both cats and dogs (not a bad allergy, but one nonetheless).
What kind of things do your kids want as pets? What do you have as a pet?

It is amazing that ABC will take money from Exxon and other oil and energy companies to play their commercials. However, when someone comes up with an ad promoting *gasp* other fuels to use, they refuse to play it. Come on ABC, what is the real reason this ad can’t play? Big oil in your pockets too? Here is the commercial that is RePower America is trying to use. What do you think? Why won’t ABC play this?
Please forward this on, so ABC gets it into their heads that this is not okay. Of all the crappy male enhancement commercials I am stuck watching on a daily basis, this commercial is good and they won’t play it. If you feel this is wrong, here is a petition to sign to let ABC know how you feel.
