[QUOTE="Mantis Lady, post: 315458, member: 10691"] I think the parents/schools can do their part to teach their childeren that insects are not creaures that needss "to be killed with fire." I have seen some of the adults can react when you have a mantis in your hand. (saw it on my camping trip) They think it is dirty, creepy or something. I saw it when I was showing Cochise to other friends there. But saw that a few of their childeren wanted to see Cochise and starting to ask qiestions. I liked it that i could tell the kids about mantids keeping. My nephew wants now one too. And his mother says it is ok if he takes care of it himself. He get one if I get nimphs of Cochise, or I will buy him one next year for his birthday. But it is indeed sad when people don't see the beauty of the insect world like a praying mantis. [/QUOTE]
