i for one welcome this law as it might provide better guidelines for animal welfare! And children shouldn't be allowed to go out and buy animals at 12 anyway ... most children just arn't responsible enough!
I think 12 is way too young for them to go and buy them, I used to work in a petshop and we wouldn't sell any pets to anyone under 16 unless we could contact ehir parents to make sure it was ok.
i know this might sound stupid but at some fairs up here their is games you can win gold fish so how will that law take effect on that respect as i know loads of kids go to these fairs and win gold fish gawd knows what happens to them but will this be banned or something? or will the kids have to have an adult with them to get their prize
sorry for going off the subject and i do think this law has been the best in a long while
i was just asking though, poor wee fishes i get scared when i see kids with this bag of water witha wee fishy i keep thinking the worst
