    And what are your Mom's concerns??

    Get a job, get good grades, otherwise be a model child

    I was not able to start getting pets of my own unless I saved up and bought them myself. Find a way to earn money (if you're too young for a job, try negotiating extra chores for extra $$) and save it up until you can afford the snake, cage, and food. That is usually a great way to show responsibility and maturity deserving of a pet snake.

    Hi, first off how old are you?
    Who would take care of the snake?
    Who would purchase the snake and supplies?
    What are the reasons your Mom doesn't want you to have a snake?

    Yes I know a lot of questions... as I am a Mom.

    Ok, I've had lots of fish, and my old dog Ellie who watches over me in heaven, and my two alive dogs Sammy and Gracy. Cutest jack russels ever! My mom is deathly scared of snakes and Arachnida.

    If she's afraid if then it might be harder...is that the main reason you don't have one yet?? Or is she more concerned about the care aspect??
