My own almost 14 year old wants a big spider. For now it's no, until I can get past my own unreasonable fear of larger spiders as I know I would need to help care for it and help him learn to care for it properly and I can't do that if I'm afraid.

Is the forum green by chance? LOL

Anyway, I don't think I can handle arachnids myself. Guess that makes me better appreciate what our friends who are fearful of snakes feel! LOL
