    The first one I get it, but the second… Then don’t anything, why live when there is eventually suffering? Thats just a sad and misserable way to think damn. And there is actually people reasoning like this, why 😭

    • I guess the reasoning is:

      Pets usually die before their owners do.

      In contrast, (human) children lives on and usually if things go well, parents never have to watch their kids die, and its kinda their “legacy”. Pet’s don’t really have much of a “legacy”, I mean other than working animals which can have a huge legacy of like maybe saving lives.

      (I’m not saying I agree, just explaining their views)

      Trauma, depression, ptsd, mental issues, not wanting yet another thing to push one over the edge, etc. The reasons to think and act like that are a lot. Not everyone lives life with rose tinted glasses.
