Our 14 year old dog, Abbey, died last month. The day after she died, my 4 year old daughter Meredith was crying and talking about how much she missed Abbey. She asked if we could write a letter to God so that when Abbey got to heaven, God would recognize her. I told her that I thought we could... more

Warm-hearted, but I don't think it's healthy for the child to be lied to and deluded in this way. Mortality is a concept she will have to accept one day, and although a made up story like this may help her feel better now, as a human being she will find it important to accept reality. The mother is kind, loving, and is trying to look out for her daughter, and the anonymous benefactor is kind-hearted, but they are unintentionally hurting this child by preventing psychological growth.

I'm with everyone else.. like that it'd make the little girl feel better.. but not really big into the religion thing.. and then if I was, I'd be told dogs don't go to heaven.

Fuck religion. It gives people false hope. Even worse: They're exposing children to this bullshit.

To those who say don't lie to children: prove that it's a lie. What evidence do you have of no after-life or for that matter that it exists? They are beliefs and everyone is entitled to their own.

Yes it is very sweet that some stranger would be kind enough to answer a child's prayer... I don't know, I was reading the comments below mine and realize the negative ones are right. We are not supposed to lie to our children, especially with regard to death... I see their point, I also see the point of the parent in the story, and whoever really did write the letter. Forgive me for getting a little philosophical here but sometimes it is possible that everyone is right.what does happen when the child is older and realizes the letter did not come from God? Do they remember only the fact that they were lied to? Or do they feel the need to give of themselves the way another once gave to them?
