I saw that on TV and just thought how great an idea was that? They turned the page on the book, get things for them....WOW!!

They told about this years ago and the thing that stuck with me was that the monkey had to be cared for like a 3-yr.-old. It kind of cured my curiosity.

so bascily the monkey is like a HandServant. And usually there are Other adults around giving the majority of the disabled person their personal care. I mean the Monkey certainly doesn't Cook. :eek: :wink:

I recall an episode of Malcolm in the Middle when Craig got hurt and was in almost a total body cast. he didn't want to spend the money for a nurse so he got a monkey. LOL. Now, this turned out to be NOT such a good idea. I will TRY to find this on Youtube and Maybe you can watch it. It IS Hilarious.

Ok, it's supposed to be on this clip: http://malcolminthemiddle.co.uk/epis...hp?image_id=62

Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you. I have been looking for a monkey to buy. I am seriously considering a Marmoset, they are JUST Darling little things except they go for between 2 and 5 THOUSAND American Dollars!!!! :eek:


I'll have to do a bit of Saving before I buy one. Maybe a year or two. :rolleyes: :o

Okay, now that is bloody cute! Kind of a little pocket monkey! Is he full grown?

I agree with the thing about having others around, but I don't and I was thinking of what it would mean if I, personally, got one. I don't have kids and I definitely don't want one that comes in the form of a permanent 3-yr-old!
