Convincing Parents (I know)

[dakski]

Thank you all for the info. I also agree with everything that is being said. And I am lucky enough to be able to volunter at a local reptile shop which is truly amazing.

I am glad we could help. It is not easy to hear "no" from anybody, but it takes a big person to evaluate the situation, and do the right thing, especially if it isn't what the want. That shows real maturity for any age.

Awesome that you volunteer at a reptile shop now!

Keep fueling your passion, learning, and when the time is right, you'll kick butt as a reptile parent! Plus, you will experience multiple species and types of reptiles, so you should know exactly what you want to focus on.

Good luck!
