i have to watch my snakes starve as punishment

[Joshyboy]

You took the post too literally, sometimes you need to read what isn't said on the internet to get a persons proper tone. I post on the Blizzard gaming forums and deal with younger kids and a lot of people (adults included) can phrase things pretty badly and mean an entirely different meaning.

For example:
How long can I watch them starve could easily mean... how long do I have to come up with a plan?

It could also be he was asking for help indirectly and just really worried about his snakes (after all being panicked about the welfare of your snakes might make you write incoherently.)

Yes I was very scared but my animals are fine. I worked out a deal with my parents and they are all fed. I just got back and fed them today. I'm sorry for all the commotion I have caused it was completely unintentional and in no way are my parents bad or am I incompetent to care for my animals. I am extremely sorry.
