RE: Why aren't parents teaching their children to respect animals?
Thank you. Yes, animals have feelings. I wouldn't want any random stranger patting my head or hugging me, why should my dogs? To a lot of people animals are belongings, objects...no they are sentient beings.
Right, and when you don't speak english the way we do, you communicate the way you know how, by possibly snapping or growling, as a HEY! I'M NOT COOL WITH THIS! For so many more reasons than just this example we need EMPATHY taught to kids (and most adults)
