My Daughter had to first tell me why she wanted a BP over a kitten, Lizard, etc
Then show me she could earn the money to care for it, I made her buy her own setup
Then save up for the animal itself, and show me that if she was not able to get work outside of the house she was willing to do more work around the house to earn extra money on a regular basis so she could afford to FEED it as time went on (I did not want to have to inherit the darned thing when she went to college)
and she did, and she has
I M very proud of her
and 3 years ago she thought I hated snakes, now she knows how much I loved them when I was her age, she asked MY mom
