At Least 15 Reddit Users Rally Behind Boy For Giving Away His Brother's Pet Hamster

If there is anything children love more than their toys, it's pets. Children fall in love with these furry friends for their cuteness. They can constantly convince their parents to buy them a pet until they get a "YES".
Having a new pet is just like getting into a new experience. For the first few days or a few weeks, you seem to take very good care of the little friend. You may feel happy and even proud of taking that responsibility. But nothing lasts forever, especially our emotions. You probably fed up with doing the same things with your pet every day. And for children, it doesn't take too long to change their mood.
Take a look at the story of @collosalpancakes, a 17-year-old Reddit user who has recently given away his brother's pet hamster after he stopped taking care of it for a while.

The boy was forced to be in charge of the pet when his little brother no longer needed it. Although he knew it was unfair, he agreed in the end because there was no other choice.

Until he learned that his friend's hamster had died several days before...

Children are sometimes irrational in the way they think and behave. It was clear the little brother didn't want to care for his hamster, but he also didn't want to give it to someone who'd care.

Moreover, it is unfair for the 17-year-old boy if we blame him for giving the pet away. If the younger brother no longer fostered his hamster, it was the parents who should take over the responsibility. But they became unreasonable for asking their older son to keep the pet.

So now, when the pet is back, who should take care of it? Redditors agree that the parents should. If they can't, then wanting the hamster back is nonsense!

It is better the little creature lives while staying with someone else rather than dying being the brother.

More people are taking the side of the boy.
