This is just not true. My kids need to experience the birth process. This is not true. School programming, virtual computers or films can convey the same information in a more caring way. Visiting the local zoo or science center are other options too.
Children can experience the birthing process other ways and enjoy it more.
They will experience it later in life anyway. Just think about all the hassles you will not have to deal with through that process, the birth, raising all those babies, and the veterinary bills. Surgery is performed under anesthesia and animals are usually back on their feet into normal activities within 24 to 72 hours. This slight discomfort is not harmful and prevents the suffering and death of hundreds of unwanted animals that could be born if you do not spay or neuter your pet. Surgery for this procedure is expensive.
