obviously your parents coddled youYou are sooo right - everybody has a right to be afraid of whatever...whenever. But the world does not change for you!! You have to protect your self. For example - I will make a confession here...I am 53 years old, I have three degrees, but still I am terrified of RUBBER BUGS!! Yep - I am one of the weenies that covers her eyes in "Bugs Life". I have no fear of the real thing, after all I can smack those with a spatula and they die!! but those RUBBER ones!!
You smack them and they won't die,
you smack them and they won't squish,
they are just there and they wiggle
and they taunt you and
they just bounce at you.
They stick to your clothes
and they get in your hair...YeeeAhhhh!!! - sorry
I can't stand snakes....I freeze up. I can't see on tv, behind glass, and lord help us all if it's not enclosed and a happen upon a garter snake. I guess my parents Didn't raise me right either.
I just stand outside at most reptile houses or walk away CRAZY fast when I see one.
