Your 10 year-old daughter tells you she REALLY wants a dog. You only have 2 cats right now. She's pretty responsible, but then again, she's only 10. What do you say?

I'm sorry, but you're only 10. You need to wait a little bit before you can have a dog. I need you to prove to me that you're mature enough.
- B.
You say Ok, but you realize it will mostly be you taking care of the dog. You're fine with that, as long as the dog is a good companion for your daughter.
- C.
You say Ok. Hopefully, this dog will teach her responsibility, and training it will teach her important skills.

Of course! This is the whole reason you make the money you make! To make her happy! You talk to her about the importance of taking care of a dog and tell her you can get it.

You tell her to REALLY think about it. Getting a dog is like getting another a family member. You talk with her about the different chores and duties of taking care of a dog, and work out what she would have to do and what you would have to do.

No. We can't get a dog. Why? Because I said so.
