I'm thinking that the Disney channel and cutely laundered made-for-tv-movies have spawned a generation of kids who are unaware of the realities of life. I do not fault them one bit, if they have not real gotten info or experience from family or school and if they think that life is 100% warm fuzzies, then they will think like the OP.
The OP might be a troll, but might be a product of Disney. The issue presented by her post is an opportunity to talk about education and living in society, anyway.
Our great-grandmothers went out into the yard, killed and plucked a chicken and cooked it for dinner and the kids saw all that being done.
Today's kids go to the drive-through with their parents and get a bucket to KFC. We tend to think that more modern is better, but in this example, the great g'mom and her family know more about life than the KFC crowd.
Much of today's life is glitzed and deodorized and packaged. If the OP is a troll, I'm all for ignoring her. But who knows, if she is in fact the product of today's society, a gentle reality check would be good for her snake, and for her as well.
The problem with a world run by spin doctors is that it is a disservice to those who have NEVER had their feet on the ground through no fault of their own, and if we can help anchor one inexperienced person at a time, it would be a service to snake and owner both.
