I'm so ashamed of myself. I'm so guilty for what I've done. I'm considering quitting my bird dream job because I dont think I deserve to work there.
Im an underage female, and my conure died this morning.
I loved to sleep with my bird snuggling me, it helped me sleep and he always wanted to (I couldnt get him off if I tried). I was aware of the numerous stories of conures ending up dead from this, but i thought if i were careful it wouldnt happen. I also thought since the other day I rolled over on him and he squaked to to tell me to get off he would simply squak and he wouldn't get hurt since I'm a pretty light sleeper. He didn't make a sound.
My coworker had warned me yesterday of the dangers, but I pushed it off since he had proven he would make noise and then be fine.
I regret what I did so much and wish I could turn back time. I just need to know if I deserve to keep my job, or even the other birds I have right now, or if I ever deserve to get another conure.
