Pets can help ease loneliness. Even if you have great parents or friends. Sometimes you just want to talk to something that won't respond with words or criticism. Plus pets are fun and teaches a person a lot of responsibility. Sometimes all you need is a 10 min breather. A pet is good for that.

Owning a pet is not just by playing with them. There are some responsibilities exist, like taking care of them... feed them, bathe them, groom them, clear their mess, show them care, etc... and play with them of course. Having a pet needs to spend a lot of time.
