Is a turtle a good pet for kids?

I believe it depends on what the kids want.  If they’re going to be happy with a turtle as a pet, then yes, it’s definitely a good choice.  If you’re thinking of getting a pet turtle, and you’re going to force your kid to be happy with it, that’s a different story.  I feel like kids can be happy with almost any pet, unless it’s a pet you’ve chosen for them and not something they’ve picked out.

Are they easy to take care of?
user
It depends.  The more you provide for a turtle, the easier it is to take care of.  So if you don’t take care of their food, their water, their space, or whatever else they need, that will be much harder to do.  If you want to see what kind of work it will be to take care of a turtle, I can tell you about a recent research project.

Of course I would take care of it.
