Thank you all. Of course I won't lose interest in this forum. It's full of a lot of great people that have helped me more than hurt. There's always going to be someone to disagree with anything so I can't hold that against the entirety of the forum. I'm planning to mention and praise this website when I present Dave at the reptile show because he wouldn't be where he was without all of the help.
I can tell my attitude has changed. I've told how I can get mean and I'm not all passive as I seem to be; agreeing with everybody and trying my best to please everybody. Obviously, nobody can please everybody but if somebody is going to insult me or my family for their choices then they have another thing coming. If they keep responding, I'm not feeding the troll.
That being said, the legal issues is what both me and my mother are worried about. Obviously they can't file a lawsuit for taking away their snake or other animals for all the right reasons but they could target me and my family or find another way around to hurt us. Yes, I do care a lot for Scorchmuffin. If I lived alone and was all grown up in my own house, it'd be a different story. I'd call animal control in a heartbeat and not care if they went after me. However, I don't want them after my family. They do know where we live, you know. I don't know just how crazy Arthur or the rest of the family would get.
I'm so sorry it seems like I"m giving this up completely. They did say they'd hand him over if he got worse so there's always some chance.
Thank you all for the support.

I agree. However, their tangents won't stop me from coming on this forum. Like I said, this forum is full of more gems than bad eggs and I do get really fantastic advice from people. I know there are a lot of fish in the sea in terms of friends, too, but I have been friends with Ariana for around four years now. My mother would be more upset with the breakup than me, though. She's not the best. I'm not either, but as said before: she is toxic.
