1--Dad, can I have a pet? I did what you said and passed all of my exams.
2--Then I guess you get to have a pet. Do you know what you want?
1--I want a dog. My friend Mindy's dog just had puppies and she said I can have one.
2--You know who will be responsible for feeding and cleaning and all of that stuff?
1--I know, I know. I will do it all by myself.
2--Have you figured out the costs involved with feeding and caring for it?
1--Yes. It will cost me about $50 a month. And I make a little more than that already.
2--Sounds like you've done your homework. I think you're ready for this.
