Therapy Dogs For A Society In Deep Trouble

I heard a commercial on the radio yesterday that really freaked me out. The announcer explained that therapy dogs are now being used for college students to "ease the pain of being away from home." Are you kidding me? Going away to college is now a handicap? This all started when moms became their kids' BFFs, then we all bought mini-vans and drove our kids to their friends houses two blocks away, then we let doctors do our disciplining with Prozac, and now the little creeps can't go away to school without a therapy dog?

What happened to beer-pong, eating cold pizza for breakfast, skipping class for like a month and then making up lies to cover your horrible grades? These were all good learning experiences for later on in life.

Dear Whiney Bratty Little Pukes Who Can't Leave Mommy Without A Therapy Dog,

How 'bout this: go get a job pumping cesspools or cleaning bed pans. I would think a person would need a therapy dog for something like that - not for going away to college. Morons.

Your Former Friend,
