Some people think that keeping pets is good for children while others think it is dangerous and unhealthy. Which view do you agree with?

It is certainly true that at present families prefer to have a dog or cat as a

pet

animal in their

home

.It is generally said by some citizens that having a

pet

in the house is beneficial for their kids

however

some believe that it is hazardous to have a

pet

animal in the house. I agree with the former statement because if we have pets

then

infants can learn things which would be fruitful for them.

To begin

with advantages of having a

pet

,

firstly

they are good friends of an offspring because they are living with them in the same

home

and

also

they try to play or entertain

children

.

In addition

, most families are working these days ,

Thus

these

animals

protect human babies from some dangerous things.

Consequently

, these

animals

can work assistance for a kid.

Moreover

,if parents have a

pet

animal

then

children

would learn different skills like how to take care as well as feed process of these

animals

.

For instance

, a survey done by the Toronto university in which they noticed mostly Canadian parents has dogs in their homes for teaching friendly relations to their

children

with

animals

.

On the contrary

, there are detrimental effects of having a

pet

,

first

and foremost these pets can bite toddlers .The reason is some

animals

are not well trained and sometimes they get frustrated with things.

Therefore

, guardians of a child do not allow them to go close to a dog.

Furthermore

,many pets-

animals

have an allergy due to some diseases or they do not shampoo properly which in results

this

disease can easily transfer to a child and has an unfavourable effect on his/her immune system.

For example

, at present Indian doctors noticed in a survey that

children

have an allergy to dogs in their

home

because they touch a

pet

and do not wash their hands after playing with a

pet

.So, some harmful viruses might be transferred from

animals

to

children

. In conclusion, parents must have pets in their

home

owing to they are friendly to kids but these

animals

should be trained well

also

proper medicated so that they will not be dangerous to toddlers.
