Some people do not think it is a good idea to allow their children to have pets because of the time and money must invest in caring for them that has to be invested to care for them. On the other hand[이 표현은 일반적으로 사전에 "on one hand"를 사용한 후에만 씁니다.] However, I am convinced that it is desirable to let children keep pets. There are two reasons why I feel this way. One reason for my argument is that pets teach children how to be responsible. The other reason is that it helps children to develop a sense of empathy.
First of all, giving children a pet when they are young makes builds a foundation from which they will learn the importance of responsibility in the future. They will start to understand at a young age that their actions affect every aspect of amimal`s their pet's life. A child has to understand that, just like them, pets need to eat meals daily[매일 매일 보다는 정기적으로(regularly) 먹어야 한다는것이 더 강한 임팩트를 남깁니다). Also, the child needs to clean places messed up by pets and wash their body bathe them regularly. All of these things help the children to understand that their pet is dependent on them, and that they sometimes have to make some sacrifeces in order to take care of their pet.
Second, rasing a pet helps to develop a sense of empathy. Nowadays, many children use machines made with amazing technology[아무래도 기계와의 교감은 불가능하다는 것을 point로 삼으시는것 같으니까 기계의 뛰어난 기술 보다는 교감 불가를 언급 하시는 것이 더 좋을것 같습니다 ex:~use machines that you can't be bonded with]. so So many children are awkward to sympathsize sympathizing with other people. However,if children raise a pet at a young age, they can spend a lot of time taking care of pets them. Even though, there is a dumb animal, children can communicate with their animal. which experience could be a good stepping stone from which they will understand situation of other peolpe in the future. Even though the pet may lack intelligence, children can still communicate with them. This experience could be a good stepping stone to understanding communication with humans as well. [에쎄이 쓰실때에 dumb과 같이 단도직입적으로 부정적인 형용사는 쓰지 않습니다. "멍청하다 -> 지적인 능력이 떨어지다" 와 같은 경우]
In conclusion, I strongly agree that it is valuable to let children keep pets. This is because giving children a pet when they are young teaches children how to be responsible and also helps to enhance a empathy skills empathetic.
