"Let me preface this response by apologizing in advance for what I'm about to advise because I know it will most likely be something you do not want to hear.

"The girls have been obsessed with horses since they could walk and they are in 7th heaven since George brought home "Rainbow Dash". We have a huge backyard, but this animal is two years old, and from doing some initial research, I have learned they can live as long as 40 years!

A husband surprised his family by bringing home a miniature horse without consulting his wife. The couple has two young daughters who are ecstatic about the new animal. The miniature horse is two years old and may live decades, requiring hoof trimming, veterinary care, and regular maintenance. The wife, who works from home and handles most childcare, is overwhelmed by manure and daily upkeep. The husband has contributed little to care and resists rehoming because of the children's emotional attachment. The situation creates household strain and a need to balance children's happiness with practical responsibilities.
