Ellen DeGeneres & Adoption - Your Views

I read recently that this is the sixth or seventh time that Ellen has taken a dog and given it away. If that's true, I don't feel bad for what happened to her at all. I think she's crying because she didn't get her way.
   

This discussion is about regulations of animal rescue and the home that the said puppy was in. The puppy had bonded to the child and the Child apparently loved the puppy. The Child was extremely tramatized when it was taken away. This is about how the situation was handled by the rescue, not Poor Ellen senerio.
   
I feel bad for the family that had the dog. There are many animals that need a home. This one had a home. It's true about the theraphy that an animal can have with children. Especially one that lives in a split home situation. A dog can actually improve grades in school with reading. Children are very responsibe at the age of 12. They are cooking and cleaning and can be left alone. Children are tought to be more responsible these days with both parents that work.

So as long as a child feels bad or traumatized, it's O.K. to just do things your way and not follow any rules? What if everyone did this? This is how the world would work: "Sorry I didn't follow the rules but if I'm punished in any way, my child will be traumatized, so just let me do it my way" Now there are no rules. Everyone will just do what they want and cry victim if they don't get their way.
