It really bothers me because people uneducated in the subject think and talk as if I'm somehow putting my kids in danger by keeping these animals. Especially when said people have dogs the size of horses. Not that the dogs are a danger but is keeping snakes certainly are no more of a threat to them. People just fear what they don't understand. But as a responsible parent I absolutely need to set the record straight when such accusations are made. Not only are they safe, they teach respect and responsibility it gives my kids and I something that is "ours" that bonds us. Something as mundane as spot cleaning crap may turn out to be some of the most memorable time I spend talking with my kids growing up. Always after all that point being when people say dumb things I really think its on us to put the truth about our hobby out there one person at a time.
