you do not see how a parent over feeding a child may be similar to a snake keeper power feeding the animal that they care for?

i made no reference at all to the amount of chemicals put into mcdonalds or how organic rats are.

i was only trying to compare the responsibility of a parent caring for a child to the responsibility of a snake keeper caring for their snakes. something that you take care of can only be as healthy as you allow it to be. that was the point and thats pretty remote...
