All three require more care than most people accept.

Hold up. Some people think cats are worse than dogs? Wtf.
if you think of children as pet then yeah of course it'll be the worst.
It's an animal you have to take care of
Technically true, however in that context, so are you.
if that's all the definition of a pet, then sure yeah. But its like saying a car is a chair because you sit in it.

Which is also objectively correct. Automobiles (with seats) are just extremely complex self-propelled chairs. Fighter jets are very fast self-propelled chairs that can shoot missiles.
You can leave a cat and a dog at shelter at any age. For kids there's a age limit although I'm not sure what it is. Like... 3?
As in a baby goat, right?

one advantage of a kid is eventually you stop having to clean up their poop…. I’m sure I’ll think of another one…
Depends on the kid…
Kids are damn funny though. I have really enjoyed the phase where they go from looking up at us to ...reconsidering and now they basically mock us and look down on us as teenagers.
The banter is fantastic!
admittedly I did encourage them to be cheeky when little and we had a ton of fun with silly games and hallway piggy in the middle stiff which gave them a solid sense of humour and seems to have somehow included them having a read on what's 'going too far', but this been so worth it
Sure, the first 3 years are really hard, that's just the state of high dependency they come from.
Another one is that it's like a puppy who learns to talk and you can play videogames with it
They now the grass at an early age if you leave them outside while hungry, too.
Damn, kids are pets now?
climate change is crazy
Having a kid as a pet is a very, very bad idea
Having a kid
as a petis a very, very bad idea
Fixed it for you

Why the jk? It's ok to not want kids.
And people who don't want kids shouldn't have kids, and that too is ok.
But those who don't want kids need to have patience for those that do and make concessions for them for the obvious reasons.
I did chuckle at your post by the way, but it's complicated...
Why the jk? It's ok to not want kids.
Because, while that's absolutely true, claiming that it's objectively a bad idea for anyone to have kids would risk starting a huge discussion not worth the time and effort 🤷🏻

Which is why I included the jk rather than pretend to be serious about my universal condemnation of breeding 😄
Never took care of a kid so I can't make my own judgement but ...best pet to have?
Yes, subs of 196, you're being called out yet again
Puppy girl on a leash.
They are so cute :*
best pet to have?
This cutie

C/childfree is leaking
Life's short, why spend the majority taking care of a kid(s). I love my cats though.
