I had an email from a potential customer the other day. And in the email the person asked me "Is it dangerous to have a ball python around a child?" My response to this was "It might be dangerous for the ball python." I speak from experience on this subject because I have a 3 year old. And my 3 year old has handled a few of our snakes, BUT ONLY UNDER ADULT SUPERVISION. I do not think that it is in anyones best interest to buy a snake for a child or to have the snake around the child excessively. None of our snakes are our son's snakes, and he understands that he is not aloud near the snakes unless me or my wife are around. I just think that it's mind blowing for someone to ask me that. I guess it was the way it was worded, or maybe the way it was projected to me. Who knows.

Anyway thought I would share some of my views on this subject.
