It's a long commitment (30+ears) and you are very young and your parent right now are doing you a favor, I did not see it that way when I was in your shoes but I do now, I wanted a snake, my parents said no and it was a goof thing, it allowed me to grow up, travel, live and supp myself abroad in 3 different countries which I would not have done it I had the responsibility of a snake. (I would have had to make a choice)
You have time, if you are passionate now you will be in 10, 15, even 20 years.
I went from no snakes to finally settling down abroad and now I breed snakes and have 2 snake rooms under my roof.
