Yes, I'm cynical about humans, kids included. Some humans are awesome. Most are not. 53 years on this planet has proven that to me beyond a shadow of a doubt.
We are a self centered, cruel, despicable species as a whole.
Before you go writing me off as a miserable cynic, I'll let you know I'm a happy person around those few people I consider awesome human beings - those people who I call my friends, and my lovely wife of 30 years, an animal lover to the core. I also LOVE every moment of my time with my dogs. My dogs prove to me continuously that there is good in this world, even if it generally doesn't emanate from humans, or even despite us humans.
My kids are adults. Were they ever selfish bleeps, sure, still are sometimes. So are you, I'm sure!
Either way, a human wins over an animal every damn time.
Btw, would you want your wife, parents, siblings or friends killed to spare an animal? If not, you're a hypocrite of the highest order.
