Try telling him (the father) to man up and stop being such a wussie... after all if your 5 y/o has the bits to handle them...

And well 'normal' is not being afraid of harmless things... maybe suggest that he(the father) try sleeping at night with a light on...

What is the definition of normal? I personally think there isnt one as everyone is so different to one and other...keeping a cat or dog is more common and more heard about...there must have been a time where keeping a cat or dog was 'abnormal' give it a few years and i think reptiles will be the more heard about pet after all they are more interesting and i think easier to look after.

Hi, actually my son has Aspergers (on the Autistic Spectrum) and we have Frank (baby carolina corn) because he wanted him and loves him so much. I also had comments from his dad (divorced) but we ignored them!!! Ahmed, my son, is 7 and absolutely loves Frank and cleans and changes his water daily and feeds him with the pinkies and thoroughly enjoys being a snake owner, and takes him out daily. If anything I would say that it has brought him more out of himself as he tells his tales of Frank to anyone who will listen. So ignore the "Bad mother" slur, I am sure you are great and it is just people's ignorance.

Too right, I don't think my ex knows I have two snakes. He kicked up enough fuss over me getting a dog! That dog and my son are the very best of friends! My work has a pet day tomorrow, my boss has asked me to bring a snake down (which will be Neidr not Nyoka...) ... then an hour or so later there's a horse visiting! (work in a preschool) going to be a fun day! I'm slightly horse phobic so going to face that fear :-)
