Should repeat animal abusers be barred from owning pets?
It saddens me when I read about young people being cruel to animals.
It is important for young people to realise that they should respect life, including the lives of animals.
I think it is important for schools to teach children that respect.
Teachers should take time during lessons to discuss animal-welfare issues.
The mistreatment of animals is serious in Hong Kong. The government should increase the penalties for those found guilty of animal cruelty to act as a deterrent.
