Why?
This FML is from back in 2015 but it's good stuff
Saint Charles, United States
Fuel to the fire
Today, our dog died. My daughter was really upset about it, so my husband tried to cheer her up by saying, "At least she will be doing something that she liked forever: Sleeping!" My daughter continued to cry for half an hour. FML

Haha, lucky for me, my parents never tried to cheer me up about pets when I was a kid. As a matter of fact, all my pets went off to live at farms, and none of them actually—oh. Wait…

I have kids and our dog (very loved by all) died. It is really hard for everyone. I think your husband made a good attempt - it really difficult to deal with.

Well, he tried. So sorry for your loss!

I have a pup who I love to death. We're together 24/7, literally. And I hate knowing that he will die one day. It's horrible knowing it's bound to happen eventually. I'm so sorry for yours, and your daughter's, loss. Hopefully time will heal her a bit and maybe a new puppy down the road will help.

My cat died earlier this year. She loved to sleep. At least she's doing something she loved.

That sucks:( always hard to lose a pet. Especially for a young kid.

Tell your daughter a long time from now one day we will again see those who we had missed for so long

I can sympathize with your daughter. My father used to sing "another one bites the dust," when a beloved animal died.
