Haha yeah I cringe when I hear that as well.
Unfortunately for me, I can't say anything because I remember somebody telling me a story about their kid once before I had kids, and I tried to one up them with a story about my cat. At that time, I really thought pet ownership and being a parent were basically the same thing.
After my first kid was born, as you may recall, I traded that cat for a Hibachi and have never looked back.
