Have you come across an interesting observation today?

I am my elderly mother's caregiver. Being disabled, she doesn't get up to a lot, besides watching tv, so she talks to me about things she watched.

I'm making us lunch and she says, "On one channel, they are asking for 12 dollars a month to help children. On another, they are asking for 17 dollars a month to help animals. People in this country care more about their pets than they do people.

🤔 Hm

@Eclipse That's true. She wasn't suggesting that we should entirely disregard the lives of animals. :)

people tend to care more about things that are rare or unusual, and most animal species are much rarer than humans, plus other species don't argue about politics or religion

@lorne13 lol animals are easier to love, no doubt. Their innocence makes them like children in a way

Yeah, I have also observed that many people from Western countries are ready to invest any amount on pets

@SW-User Like Lorne said, they're more lovable than people lol
