| | Parents-owners always at fault |
 | | The parents and the dog's owner may both be returned to reality with the screams of a bitten child, followed by the undeserved destruction of the dog. |
 | | Many are quite happy to leave children playing with a dog (it relieves them of taking control of their child's behaviour), even when they know nothing about dog behaviour, do not own a dog, and have no idea what a dog's reaction is to teasing. |
 | | Dogs are feeling, reasoning creatures, not toys - we would not expect another child to just sit and let itself be hurt, teased, stood on, have its hair pulled and do nothing about it. |
