What's the deal with ESA?

Emotional Support Animals... Okay, I suppose there are a select few people who are so emotionally in need of support that they need their pet (animal) with them everywhere; but seriously, how did this become such a big thing?

I have seen a number of people who truly benefit from dogs, especially. Sad truth, my friend, is that fewer people are able to cope, every passing day.

Recently I saw that a woman tried to take her support peacock on a plane but they wouldn’t allow it. I thought that was short-sighted but looked it up and peacocks live 10-25 years. Support ducks and chickens are growing in popularity now, and it’s not wise to get emotionally attached to them.

I don’t claim to understand it, but, hey! Whatever gets you through the day.

@Mamapolo2016 oh I agree, it was just the part about the peacock. 🤣

@ZenKitzune I know. Life just can’t help being funny sometimes. Interesting thing...ESAs often resemble their owners, or vice versa...and if the owner is draped in bling, so’s the dog. I keep trying to envision the wardrobe of a woman with a support peacock.
