What’s so gross about animal hair? As long as they’re bathed in the last 2 months or so and don’t reek of pee or have crap caked on them, I see no issue with fur that you can easily clean off since you don’t have the dogs in your own home. They can’t just get rid of the fact their animals shed but you can take extra precautions if you have a problem. I’d honestly be embarrassed a little to make this post or have these issues, unless someone was like dire allergic or something but yes, that’s dramatic and weird and I’m dumbfounded lol

Talk to your husband he is the only person who matters in this situation. But kids can be washed and its good for them to be around dogs and cats it will help their immune system dress j. Clothes you don’t care about and visit them so they dint bring it to your house. When yiu get home take a shower.

This is hilarious, why wouldn’t you want your child around animals. It’s good for them. It helps teach them wrong, right, and loving animals. That might be why you don’t like animals as you never were around them. And that’s the grandparents, I can’t for the life of me could even think about asking them to meet in public. That’s just absolutely absurd and selfish. You are crazy lady.

I think you are valid in your feelings. If you feel that way around animal hair, there is nothing wrong with that. But I do believe you have to compromise somewhere. It is not harming you or your child and it will definitely cause a strain in your relationship. I’d be offended if my spouse was grossed out so much from my family that you won’t even go over there. That is your son’s family and he has a right to spend time there and make memories. You can try your best to be cautious but at some point you will have to allow your son to bond with your husbands family.

This post is just gross 
I was once with someone who never cleaned and allowed the dog to just use training pads and it NEVER left the house. I refused to allow my kid on the floor over there, ESPECIALLY when he started crawling because the training pads usually had poo on them and everyone wore shoes in the house and would step on the pads and track it around on the floor 
The hair is gross, but they at least clean. Take lint rollers for your family when you visit them or let them use them when they visit you.

Dog or cat hair has never killed anyone yet !!
This seems extreme to me! Your child should be exposed to some hair, dander, dirt, germs, etc. to help build a strong immune system. And making your in-laws only get to see their grandchild in public because of hair is messed up in my opinion.

Perhaps take a blanket from your home that your child can sit on the couch or on a pallet on the floor, Or take a pak and play?
Or get covers for your furniture for the times they come over. Don’t let your child miss out on loved ones who WANT to see them, without trying to find a compromise.

Honestly Just wait till u see how gross that kid gets! babys are gross, todlers are awful, and teens are the worst…yet all those stages in life are necsasary to becoming a well adjusted adult. Sheltering your child from dirt pet hair or animals in general will leave then compleatly unaware of how to handle real life situations where they will encounter those things. Thats just my opinion tho.

I mean… don’t go to their house then. Use a lint roller, my sister is allergic and still comes over, my best friend hates it but still comes, brings a lint roller to clean herself. It sounds more like a control. You shed too…
6 Likes
Technically speaking… you’re an animal.
And you are not exempt from shedding.
So then by technical standpoint… does that mean that you think that you are also gross?
Teaching our kids to respect animals is just as important as teaching them to respect other living beings and perhaps even helps teaching them to respect the planet we all share.
Perhaps you need to do some research and learn that humans are the only ones who destroy their own natural habitat and resources, yet you think that it’s the animals who are gross.
That’s what’s really gross. Do better and teach your children to be the change this world needs to see.

Have u or your husband talked to them about how u feel… I mean how much dog hair is a lot. That’s very selfish of u to do that to them.

And u say they are covered in dog hair when they visit u maybe get a lent roller and have them use it before they hug your baby.

Um… I feel like you’re going to make a problem bigger than it should be in this. While you feel the way you do, it could result in a cascade of negativity down the line.

Y’all are so negative. lady if you don’t like animals are hair there is nothing wrong with that, just express how you feel. You have a right to your own feelings and your own opinion. Folks should respect how you feel when it comes to your baby. I think not allowing them over is a little bit of a dramatic decision but set an old blanket or sheet down or something when they do, if they have that much dog hair in them.

It’s okay that you think the hair is gross. If you are able to get past that, I think it’s worth just going over there to visit because having people in your life who love you and your baby are worth those small sacrifices. Your baby will be okay crawling on the floor 
you could probably ask that they sweep up the floor and keep the animals in a separate area if you are more comfortable that way.

I mean I love pets. But I don’t want any. Mainly because of the hair. But I’ll still visit my mom (5 dogs) and boyfriends mom (dog and 2 cats) and my daughters grandparents(dog and 3 cats) pretty regularly
Obviously if you don’t like it then avoid it. But don’t make it some big ass deal and hold the kid over the grandparents head as a “you can’t see them if you have ____ pet”

Reading these comments of people just attacking you because you don’t want your child covered in animal hair is wrong. I also don’t like my kids being covered in it so I don’t think you’re in the wrong. Going out in public also gives you all a chance to socialize outside of them home 
my parents have too many cats for my comfort, I’m also allergic so anytime we do visit I just change everyone’s clothes the minute were home.
I don’t think you’re unreasonable for not wanting your kids covered in hair.

If the kids aren’t allergic I think you’re being weird. If the kids go outside and play in the dirt it’s “gross” right? Even pet owners hate the hair everywhere but it’s literally just cleaning up and washing the clothes after right? When u said animals are just gross it kinda told the reason behind this because kids gets dirt, hair, food, slobber, spit, pee, puke, etc on them randomly. You just don’t like animals so talk to the family and be honest about it.

I hate hair too, but I also have a logical reason…I own four adult Shepard’s and four puppy Shepards and ya know what I find them to be gross just like I do my children whom I have 5 of so I mean yea it’s gross it’s tough it’s hairy and some days I want to pull my hair out and run away but I’ll be damned if you ever see me airing my things online about my poor In-laws living style with pets. Like come on I could see if there was feces and urine all over the place like yea logical reason…but hair?! Girl get out of here and look in the mirror if you aren’t offering to be over there every weekend to clean that house for them then get out of here. PHOTO…just to annoy her

You’re an ugly person debating ruining your baby’s relationship with their grandparents over animal hair. Also tension with your spouse and his family, and then with the two of you. Over dog hair. Chill out!
The fact you said animals are gross makes me think the hair can’t be as bad as you’re making it sound. Their house and their clothes will never be spotless just like much anyone else’s.
Kids need to build resistance and need some exposure to a little bit of germs to have a healthy immune system. Being kept always from every thing wil make them get sick very quickly.

You can say what you would like to do, there is nothing wrong with that BUT it’s also their kid’s house and their kid’s child so someone else has an opinion in the matter. The same rule should apply to your parents. If one set of grandparents can’t visit and the kids can’t go then the other shouldn’t either.

I would just put the kid in an outfit and change them when your gonna leave and put the play clothes in a bag to be washed. Find a compromise that doesn’t eliminate taking your kid over there or them coming over and jeopardizing what is hopefully a good relationship. I walk into my friend’s house whose older husky just loses chunks of fur everywhere, no matter how hard she cleans. But I walk out with half that dogs fur when I leave, I swear it! It doesn’t gross me out but I just brush it off outside and change my clothes when I get home. Get your self a dust buster for when they leave and just do a 5 minute clean-up. Compromise.

Anyone else grossed out by kids? I do not want them around my pets at all. my in laws have so many kids…and while they clean as much as they can…they still have so much snot and toys in their house and I dont want my pet on their floor…and I am almost to the point where i do not want them coming to my house anymore because their clothes are always covered in spit up and stickiness. I just think kids are gross…would it be wrong if we only met in public palces from now on?
