Well, I looked into my crystal ball and bupkis! Gee, I
wonder why?
No one can tell you which bird will work out the best for
you situation.
I don't care how well behaved your children are; they will
overwhelm the new bird even if it is with kindness and love.
Small children and birds do not mix.
The bird will suffer in the end, probably looking for a new
home when Sally is repeatedly bitten and Joey starts crying.
