My opinion is that of course Burmese shouldn't be sold to any average 15 year old kid!! Of course not!
But is snakemann87 an average 15 year old? Doubtfully. He has shown the time needed to build the cage which alone tells you he has more than a passing interest in reptiles as well as having a full grown Ball Python. He apparently cares for that snake well. The average "party hard" and 100% influcenced by anything teenager would OF COURSE get tired of taking care of a 15 foot snake. They want to go out, nothing is more important than friends and fun, they don't normally care much about anything but their own social lives...and thats not to say anything bad about teens, we were all like that.
But when a teenager, or even a child shows an interest in something continually they tend to care about it more than the average "got it because it looks cool" And in this case I agree with the rest of these people, leave him alone. I mean really he will never be able to satisfy you, and no matter what all you will see is the number 15. Not every teenager should get a Pilot Lisence but the ones who show a true ability and interest are allowed to test and learn and eventually have them.
If any law should be passed it should prevent teens from owning large snakes but allow an exception for those like snakemann87
who obviously show an interest in learning and caring for their burm properly. And berating him constantly without even caring about his true interest in reptiles is not helping anyone.
snakemann87 the best thing you can do is take care of that burm responsibly, and properly for its entire life
