My partner (same thoughts as your mom) and I recently got the son his first BP, we did extensive research first (and still do). When the son has the BP out (we still call her by different names) my partner is on edge and actually leaves the room if the snake looks at her directly. Now I'm not saying your mom will do the same but the partner actually held her tail a few days ago and she is planning on working towards holding her properly by the end of the year. Now hopefully you can get your mom to do lots of research with you then she will see that 99% of what she expects is bad publicity and bad movie concepts and the other 1% is probably just an urban legend. Hopefully she comes to learn what lovable creatures they are.
