It makes me wonder what the “emotional support pet person” would do if they got what they needed....namely, a hard slap across the face and the gruffly-worded admonition to “GROW UP!”.
Probably whimper loudly, drop to the floor and curl up in the fetal position, sucking their thumb.
Or maybe their 100 pound Dobe would rip your stupid face off.
Why don’t you try it and let us know how it worked out for you?
More likely, you’d be arrested for assault and the person slapped would turn out to have been sexually abused as a child or a victim of rape.
There are legitimate reasons for having an animal for emotional support-—but a dog expressly trained for that purpose will be well behaved.
