Should people be allowed to keep exotic animals as house pets? This article mostly talks about why people shouldn't be keeping exotic animals as pets. Some of the reasons are that many exotic animals have diseases that can be fatal and most exotic animals will attack their owns. This article also gives some other reasons of why this should not be legal.

I can not believe that people really place ads on Craigslist pretty much giving away or selling their children like pets. This article shows real ads that were placed to basically get rid of their children just the same as one would sell a dresser. Not only does this actually happen it is LEGAL!

This is just insane. It's unbelievable how something like this can be legal. Kids aren't pets or an object to be selling or giving away in a website. Although, towards the end of the article it does make a valid point, what makes us think that it's right for agencies to profit and make money out of these adoptions?

I didn't know this was real until I met someone that sold their child to a family in Italy. I can't imagine selling my kids. What is even more sad is that these people don't even know if their baby is really being cared for or placed in sex trafficking or the black market for some sickos.

The key distinction to remember is that a psychiatric service animal is actually trained to perform certain tasks that are directly related to an individual's psychiatric disability.

Those with disabilities need extra care and attention at times while some do not. No matter the case, everyone should be kind and understanding to those with disabilities. However, many disabled peoples are discriminated against all the time.

Totally agree with you that people should be kind to those with disabilities. Many people that don't have a physical disability that can be seen are often discriminated against. I see people with support pets get discriminated against often and many people don't know their rights. Thanks for providing the site!
