Is it me or do humans like their pets more than their family members?

Because we put down our pets when they are getting old to put them out of their misery.

BUT most humans keep cancer patients or other terminally ill patients alive and in a lot of pain.

Is the pain they have to go trough (before most of them die anyway) really worth it?

Please post your opinion below.Is it me or do humans like their pets more than their family members?It's just the product of screwball logic (created by equal parts religion/healthcare as big business) that most people don't give much thought to.

I feel that any sentient being that is mortally wounded or terminally ill (i.e. not getting better, and only has an excruciating protracted death to look forward to) has the right to be put out of their misery.Is it me or do humans like their pets more than their family members?
I think thats just because we value human life more than animal life.It is alot harder to see granny die than fido. I do see your point though. If Iwas miserable and in pain all the tiem i'd rather be put down and I have made that clear to my family. I think if my grandparents and parents get to the point their life isnt worth living and theyre on life support id pull the plug because I love them too much to make them suffer because I am not ready for them to go.Is it me or do humans like their pets more than their family members?Honestly, theres a million different opinions for this kind of topic. The fact that people put down their pets seems like it would show less affection as opposed to family, dont you think? Of course, its heartbreaking and very sad, but you know its best for the animal. People who try to keep their family members alive is something totally different. On one end of the spectrum, you want to end all pain youre loved ones enduring, but on the other hand, how could you even think of letting them go when theres a possibilty their life could be saved? A decision most of us will never agree on, even when faced with it in reality. May God save any of us from going through such an experience.

But, in answering your question, human beings will always care for each other more than their pets.Is it me or do humans like their pets more than their family members?
I can see your point as a person who actually loves a pet against humans for example...

my grandma has a Chocolate Labrador got her when she was a pup and i've loved her ever since visiting for the first time we used to sit by the fire with the dogs head on my leg resting as a child and we always used to play outside having fun, now ive gotten abit older everytime i visit my grandparents the dog sees me and gets all excited the point is the other family members never really took that much interest and i couldnt see why when the most freakin awesome dog ever is here and they dont give a rats *** they only care for themselves and family membersIs it me or do humans like their pets more than their family members?A tone of people like their pets more :)
