[QUOTE="A.J., post: 1608523, member: 13664"] Sorry to hear about your pup. I’m in agreement with you on the subject. I guess it depends on the individual child, but we started out telling and showing our son about this at an early age. He’s 4 now, and has helped me bury several pets, calves, goat kids, etc that have died, and he’s dealt with it really well. I just try to explain to him it’s part of life and it’s ok to be sad and miss them. We have prayed over several that were sick or injured, and he’s seen some make it, and some not. We’re teaching him to give them the best care possible while you have them, and sometimes it’s not meant to be, and they don’t make it. This is one of the many good lessons kids can learn on a farm at an early age. [/QUOTE]
