Do you think virtual pets influence people to get real pets, or not really? Do you think some people prefer taking care of virtual pets instead of real pets?

Have the responsibilities of virtual pet care influenced others to become real-life pet owners?
 
I can say that virtual pets can spark an interest in caring for real pets, it can build and teach responsibilities though virtual pets are not a replacement for real pets, it's a good starting point because they can foster empathy and understanding of animals' needs. Caring for a virtual pet can also help individuals develop skills like routine management and responsibility for their pets.

Some people prefer virtual pets because there's no financial burden or much responsibility compared to real pets.
 
Anyone who manages to dedicate a lot of time in managing the pets on the virtual pet site game he's playing will definitely have more concern when it comes to handling their pets in real life. So, the game have an influence or makes an impact.
 
I don't know, I'm sure some kids have been influenced by them but it's very difficult to know for sure.
 
When you can devote time to taking care of imaginary pets that you have online, I believe that it goes a long way in helping you to do the same thing to them if you have them in real life.

It does but it's not going to work for someone who's not financially capable of taking care of them because doing it online is 100% different from doing it in real life.

Being financially capable is the first thing. In order to take care of your pets, you need to be financially capable because taking care of pets isn't a child's play and if you don't have money, your pets won't look well in appearance.

This is why pet site games have a limiting scope in making everyone who plays it to adopt pets in real life. It's only those who are ready for it financially, emotionally and mentally that can do it.

After playing the virtual pet games, I started day dreaming on how I will take care of my own real pets. The way that I will play with them and all that. It's only a dream because I'm not yet buoyant enough to get them as I want.
