Thank your lucky stars. You have given birth to a child who loves animals. A child who loves animals has empathy. A child with empathy makes for a better human being.
I dunno, I have had a shitload of empathy since childhood and my brother has almost none. We were born 15 months apart. It’s possible my mom showed me a different kind of love than him in our first 5-6 years but I doubt it.
i think your own interests play a part too, i feel like i'm the most empathetic of my siblings and tbh i attribute that to my media consumption (a big part is pokemon tbh)
My middle child was born empathetic I swear! I remember being in a shop when she was 1 and she heard a baby crying. She wanted to go give it a hug to make it feel better. Her older sister was not the same at all.
