When I was a kid, I wanted a horse so badly, but of course, horses require a lot of room to run around. They aren’t cheap animals!
I remember looking up how much space a horse needs to roam (at least one or two acres) and then going out to my backyard with a measuring tape, determined to see if we could have enough room for my dream pet. Alas, we did not have that much room. Such is life in the suburbs. And a owning a horse costs thousands of dollars each year, between paying for food, a stable, and any vet issues that may come up, so it’s just not feasible for the average family.
Now, this person is actually living the dream, in many ways. She has two horses who both live at a nearby riding school. That’s one way for horses to give their owners a good ROI: let kids take riding lessons, walking or running around the paddocks. It’s not too hard on the horses, and kids get to live out their horse-riding dreams.
But now, this kid is being called entitled after sharing her latest horse-related dilemma. Do you think she is?
