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...
I think what he was saying was that the system is different and overfeeding a child doesn't drain it of a weeks worth of energy like it does for a snake.
I don't think he was denying the responsibility meaning to that, which is completely true. :]
