Well, I looked for "hamster" in my reaction pic folder, and the only image I've got is surprisingly relevant.
You kill the child and use the hamster as a substitute, to ease your pain and grief.

When I was in 5th grade, my pet hamster got deathly ill and there was nothing we could do, so in order to put it out of its misery, my dad took it into the garage with a mallet. I miss you angel, you were an awesome hamster.
When I was 8, I had a hamster that used to get out of her cage a lot. One day I didn't realize she escaped and I stepped on her.
My first hamster, and I accidentally squished her like a bug. Needless to say, I've never had another hamster again.

Sometimes I wish my parents had been able to more exactly convey concepts to me as a child. "Dad, why is the sky blue?" his reply? "I don't know."
When my kid, someday in the future, asks me why the fucking sky is blue, I will explain it to him with all of the scientific knowledge I've accumulated why the fucking sky is fucking blue.
I apologize for the arbitrary rant, but it's something the post reminded me of and it's a huge pet peeve of mine. I can understand that some people might think the child that's asking the question wouldn't understand if you explained the concept in detail, but how else are they going to learn? If they don't have the ability to understand things like that, they probably wouldn't have had the scientific drive to wonder about why the sky is blue or why the grass is green.
If a kid asks me about the Sky's color, I'll explain wavelengths and such. He might then ask what wavelengths are, themselves, and I'll explain those to him too and I would keep going until I've exhausted my basin of knowledge or until the child is satisfied, but with some hope, the child would never be satisfied and would continue questioning things for their whole life.
That being said... I guess the difference between me, people like me and those who wouldn't explain further than "it just is" or something similar is that people like me aren't lazy and actually care about the next generation's love for science and knowledge in general. I'm now beginning to realize how long this rant has become and I apologize for that.
TL;DR - I like explaining things.

No way man, not brutal enough. You need a hamster and a microwave. That'll learn 'im the concept of death.

I won my first Hamster in some contest. I got the same ammount of points as a friend of mine and he decided he'd take a guinea pig instead.
I took good care of my hamster until one day it just died. So they bought me another one.
One day it's water ran out and I decided to refill the little glass pipe it drank from. I broke it and I had to take my hamster out of the cage for a few hours. It died, because it got sick from something outside its cage. Then I got another one. It ran away 3 times until I finally never found it again.
I hate hamsters. I've never wanted a pet since that last hamster.
