Hello all...I'm new and just looking for a place to share or get advice.
I have a neighbor who has a beardie. It looks closer to adult than baby size, but that's all I know for sure. These people are just awful. My daughter sometimes plays with their little girl, but I don't know them well enough to get involved. The parents just don't care. The dad's abrasive and mean. Worst part is their son. I know he must be this way because of his awful home life, but he's awful. I've been to their house a couple of times with my daughter because I refuse to let her go over there alone (and the little girl has no other friends.) This kid has a beardie, and I was shocked by what I saw. He keeps it in a dirty tank with a red bulb, but that's the best part of this poor thing's life. I've seen him toss it around like a ball or a toy. He carries it by the tail. I walked by once and he had it tied outside to his porch railing and it was freaking out. I tried to approach but he came back out and when I asked what he was doing he cursed at me. The sister says he lays it on its back and laughs while it struggles. She said he gets angry and throws it into the tank and once taped it to the wall. I asked the mom once and she just said she "hates that thing." This animal is suffering. Those kids have an awful home. I just feel powerless to help...
