Re: my moms opinion on snakes changed drastically
My grandma went from "Get out of my yard" to "Go get Ruby out so she can get some exercise" in a matter of a couple months. Once people get to see the true beauty in them, they usually fall in love

I know you how you feel!
My mom snake-sat for me last weekend because I was going out of town. She went from thinking the same - that Panndor would be slimy and cold and aggressive - to being able to hold and stroke him. She seemed so surprised at first that he was so soft and gentle. It is nice when you can pull someone out of that mindset. A fear of ALL snakes is ingrained in a lot of people from a young age.

Re: my moms opinion on snakes changed drastically
i kept a northern albino pine over the summer a few years ago and my mom wouldn't come within 10 feet of me if i had that snake out. now she'll take my bp out and hold her and cuddle her like a baby. she even calls it her grand snake child...talk about change!
Re: my moms opinion on snakes changed drastically
i told my mom she will have the first hatched baby in 2 years and she said i cant wait.
Re: my moms opinion on snakes changed drastically
its funny how you can change someones opinion when they know how the snake really is
Re: my moms opinion on snakes changed drastically
Yeah, my mom went from being freaked out, to emailing me one time asking how her "grandsnake" was doing. :D It makes me happy to know that she likes my girl too ^_^
Re: my moms opinion on snakes changed drastically
it deffanitly is a good feeling to change peoples opinions, and my dad finally stoped callin my ferret a rat and started actually calling her by her name and playing with her so i changed him too. though he still doesnt like the idea of a snake in the house. he is tolerant of my montana
