The Advantages of Having Parrots Instead of Children.

1. Parrots hatch. This is a big plus!
2. As long as your parrot is alive, you will always have a child
in the house. (For some this may be seen as a disadvantage! )
3. A parrot plays like a child, talks like you, has temper
tantrums like a child, gets over them unlike some children.
4. A parrot will eat her veggies.
5. Parrots grow their own clothes which are usually attractive,
colorful & enhance their looks. A parrot will never wear a lycra
see-through blouse or their jeans below their underwear. If their
underwear isn't clean, it means that they are sick. They are good
about their grooming.
6. Parrots are cheaper to educate & appreciate your efforts to
educate them. After classes are done, they do not move to the
other side of the country & stop calling you.
7. Your parrot talks to you. If she doesn't talk to you, she will
sing or whistle to you.
8. Parrots are good listeners. They love to hear you talk about
anything as long as they are not tired. If you wonder if they are
listening, they will repeat back to you what you said.
9. A parrot is always happy to have dinner with you. Or lunch or
breakfast. If they would let parrots in the stores, your parrot
would go shopping with you &/or to the movies. When she is tired,
she will yawn & go to sleep if you let her.
10. When a parrot is angry with you, she is direct about it. You
will know. There is no reading between the lines.
11. If you do not abuse your parrot, she will not stop talking to
you for years. Parrots make sense. They are logical creatures.
They know who feeds them & who is kind to them. They reward love
with love.
12. A parrot appreciates attempts to make her happy.
13. A parrot knows who is kind & who isn't. She does not reward
those who are not kind. Those who love her & show her they love
her are the ones she trusts. She will not run off with the ex-con
drug addict who she met in a bar. She might bite him!
14. Parrots do not go out & buy drugs or indulge in liquor.
15. Parrots are naturally smart!
16. At night parrots sleep quietly. They do not play drums or
watch MTV at full volume till 3 A.M. or hang out in bars or on
street corners carrying boom boxes & a bottle in a brown paper
bag & funny handrolled cigarettes in their pockets. Parrots do
not smoke.
17. Parrots have a sense of boundaries. If you let them know,
they will sometimes respect yours but they won't hold a grudge
over boundaries. They will let you know where their boundaries
are. There is no guessing with a parrot.
18. Parrots are cheerful, affectionate & funloving.
19. A parrot will never ask you for advice & then get mad at you
for giving it.
20. A parrot is a very forgiving creature.
21. Parrots do not fart!
22. If a parrot throws up in front of you, it probably means she
loves you!
23. Parrots never ask for money unless you teach them to ask for
money.
