Point of View - Day 2

What is point of view?

Pets are family. We love and care about them deeply. Lately there has been debate about whether or not pets should be kept in cages. The answer is simple: yes, for their own safety. Take a hamster, for example. There would be great danger to a hamster who was kept outside of his/her cage at all times. The hamster could get trapped somewhere in your house, injured by a human who didn’t see the hamster, or even attacked by another pet in the family. I think that putting in animals in cages is meant to protect them.

How does the author feel about cages?

Kids struggle with having to balance school, activities (like sports), and home life. So should they have to do chores on top of everything else? After all, shouldn't kids just worry about school? But I disagree. Chores teach children how to be responsible citizens, and set them up for being independent. Chores also give kids a sense of accomplishment and makes them feel as if they are part of a team, as they see their mom/dad doing daily chores around the house, too. I think it’s very important to teach children how to have responsibility and pitch in around the house.
