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.

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!!!!


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

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!
