This is somewhat reminiscent of the people vs animals thread we had... On any given day, I think I prefer animals to most people, but.. that's because I don't have any children. When the decision is made to have children, they should become the priority, you might not take extravagent vacations any more, or booze it up any more, all things that you give up because of the child... If, for some odd reason, your child is allergic (and I thought allergies were inherited, but maybe not) then they should be the priority... it's a pet... not a person.
As a kid, I had terrible allergies, I think I was allergic to practically every living thing that bloomed, and underwent allergy shots all spring and summer, thankfully I outgrew most of those allergies, and no longer need the allergy shots, but I wouldn't wish those shots on anyone....
