its all about controlled risks, there is a risk to it that is doubtless but they can be minimised with correct, training, equipment and attitude, alot of people that get bitten admit they were in the wrong, were being careless lost concentration or generally wernt doing what they knew the should of been, not everyone gets bitten.

I would also like to know if any of you have children and how you educate them about these venomous?

I must admit i feel the same, but my boyfriend is intent on having kids eventually, he finds it difficult to understand keeping venomous for this reason.

That was my reasoning. He wouldn't even have the key to the room as they are of no intrest to him. Only me and a friend who would also be trained to handle them would have access.

His arguement is that: i would rather the venomous than children. which is essentially true. Being as though he lives with me (though i pay the bills) he feels he has the right to stop me.

As you can imagine, my reply was along the lines of a less polite : if u dont like it then go live with some1else.

He didn't want any of the previous snakes i had but he loves them now (exept flare because he is bitey)

i'm not the easiest to live with

my temper is similar to flares i think thats why i love him.

I just want him to understand that when i do something i do so with knowlege not just jump in the deep end without armbands!

He doesn't research i.e. if a car breaks he tries to fix it, makes it worse forgets how to put it back together. Then when i find out i've got to sort it and when i ask him where he put things its like ''i dunno i cant remember''
