I basically just told my mom last year that I would be getting a snake. She wasn't wild about it and told me she preferred I not. I was living in Africa at the time and thought I could do whatever I wanted, so literally the day after I got back I went out and got my first snake. My dad was pissed, but I chose to ignore it since he never actually came to me to tell me no. Fast forward to 3 months ago while I was away at school and I got 5 more, knowing that I'd be moving out quickly this summer. Well, again, my dad was pissed, but never actually came to me to tell me he was not happy about it.
Total disrespect, OP this is how NOT to go about it........................ Unless you pay the bills.
