Well that kind of hurt... My parents don't say much, but I know they don't really approve either. Not to sound like a rebellious teenager (I'm in my 20's, after all) but it isn't really anyone's approval I'm after. On the reverse side of the coin, my brother's friend "loves" snakes, and when he visited with my brother today he just wanted to hold my biggest snake and wasn't getting the hints when I kept suggested he put him back. First time I had ever heard any of my pythons hiss, but this guy handles snakes much too roughly. I'll take people avoiding snakes altogether over the ones that only think they know how to properly handle a python.


*It was't the new snake he was handling, it was Chelsea, who will henceforth be referred to as Chase.
I did the same. Got pretty much the same response. "Are you crazy? Thats gross". "Thats gonna get lose and bite your toes off while you sleep"
I agree 100% with you tho. I just turned 18. Im already on my own. Approval? Nah. Plenty of people disaprove many things i do. Oohh well. My life. Lol

And about handling, unless i am absolutely sure they know what they are doing, they not touching my snake. Lol
