We converted my daughter's bff, from being scared of snakes to loving them. Her parents don't mind at all. However, I think open communication between parents is a key. I wouldn't want to find out one of my daughters friends parents were hiding something from me. I like to know the people and whats going on, before my daughter stays there. We have in the past had a friend that wasnt allowed to come over because we own guns, but none that I'm aware of due to the snakes. And they all know we have them, we take them to school each year. Personally, I would tell the friends parents. The kid is probably going to go home and do it for you.
Its great when your kids have friends, its even better when you like or get along with their parents.![]()
