justalady721 Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 I just want to say hello to everyone. and plus I wanted to give everyone an update. If you all remember my future son in law was giving me a hard time about my African Grey (Houdini) and having a fit because he read that they pass germs and illnesses to people. WELL...... I had sent all of you all's replies to my question if parrots passed on illnesses well.....my daughter read it and loved it. she laughed. Well....they had taken the baby for her 4 month check up and what do you think he had to ask the doctor about my parrot. so you know what she said to him no worries....domesticated birds are fine its the wild birds you need to be concerned about...lol I wish I could have been there so I could say ninner ninner ninner.....lol I love this web site so much it is so informative and the people are absolutely wonderful. Thank You to ALL.... Deborah Jackson
jessdecutie18 Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 I'm glad they don't carry diseases, or I expect most of us on here would be super-sick, all the loving we give our fids
Luvparrots Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 Glad Houdini has been vindicated with the help of your grandbaby's pediatrician. Hip, hip hooray!!! :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

I bet you felt so triumphant Deborah!! Way to go!! :laugh:
Greywings Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 Love when a plan comes together-good work! The poor man was most likely deprived of animal companionship as a child.
danmcq Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 LOL - Guess that will teach the Son-in-Law to never doubt the wisdom of his MIL.
Acappella Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 I'm not a parent (of a human child), but I have to laugh at how over protective some parents are these days. I grew up on a farm and was into everything, all the time. Plus I was always an animal magnet and would pick up and pet almost anything with a heartbeat. I'm guessing your son-in-law will eventually figure out that kids aren't as fragile as they seem.
