    It kinda does.

    Daycare in my area was $2500 for two kids (with a discount). That’s just daycare. This ain’t even a fancy ass daycare, nor is this a fancy city. Everything is just that fucking expensive now.

          Can I just put up one of those gps fences with an electric collar on a goat and just strap my child to the goat when I’m not around? Kid can play outside with his friend and the goat will make sure he doesn’t leave the property… While mowing any abnoxiously tall grass.

          /s

            Get them a really protective pit bull :) Train it not to go too far and heard the kid back home.

            bonus, belly rubs and pitty leans.

              2 pitbulls broke in and killed one of my chickens the night before last. Little dude was only born in November.

              Also got bit by a different pit bull mix that lives next door January 20thish, hasn’t fully healed yet. (That one was partially fault) Neighbor has an older dog about 10 or 11 and the smaller pit mix got in a fight with her, I made the mistake of pulling the smaller one off because there was to much blood coming from her throat, thankfully both dogs are fine now, still live in the same penned area, but this past 12 months or so haven’t done well for my pitbull confidence. Never disliked them, but for now I’m keeping my distance lol

                There’s a reason they’re fought; they have legendary bite force.

                I rescued one once that was over 100 lbs and could hold his own weight and hang from a rope, he was also able to climb a 6 foot fence.

                Raised poorly or starving the’re dangerous AF

                Raised by you in your ‘pack’ they’re dopy lazy happy sausages, as long as nothing threatens you or yours. Ours took cues from me, if I wasn’t mad or anxous about he wouldn’t even lift his head when someone came in the door. When someone came up drunk beating on the wrong door late at night, I was scared to open the door enough he could see out, he was definitealy fearless and angry.

                I’ve only been around a couple that have been poorly handled, our guy was a bait dog at one point, he came to us all scarred.
