Yes these birds are suitable for children because they tolerate being handled very well. They can bond quite well with their owners, making them wonderful pets for young bird lovers.

It depends. If you child wants a really hands-on pet, a parakeet might not be a good choice because they don't always like being handled.

No, they are much to nervous and fragile. I suggest sticking to a common goldfish or betta fish until the child gets older and more responsible.

Birds can be unpredictable - making them a little dangerous for a 6-year-old. If the bird is kept caged, then it might be a good "observation" pet.
