Your right, Although fish keeping can be nice and a lot of people like
it, its also not for everyone, i know i would like to be aware if i was
getting a live gift just to make sure i wanted it in the first
place..........
============
I remember when someone gave my son a pair of white mince for his
birthday. They never thought to ask us if it were ok. It wasn't ok but
what can you do after the fact? Fortunately I was able to talk him into
swapping them for a battery powered Robot he wanted - and took the mice
back to the pet store.

When it comes to live things I think you are correct in asking the person
first. Not everyone wants a live pet.

I guess we all run into that, a couple years ago my neighbor came down with
hamster in cage and knocked on my door, my six year old answered, she ask
for me "but" ask right in front of him....I was wondering if Luke would like
to have a hamster....ugh no he does not, yeah right ....Luke was by that
time on his 20th please mommy can I.....so i had no choice, the little (fill
in the blank) was mean and bit and i seen quickly why she did not want him,
a little fact she left out....he died after a year and a half and me getting
bit many of times.
I now have a bunny, two nice hamsters, my dog and fish, which is to much for
me but i can live with them.
