I have to agree.
Honestly, I expected better from our little PetTalk family here. On other websites, sure, but the people who post here generally are more sensitive to others' feelings than this.
I think it was pretty obvious from her first post that she was upset and had no idea what it was. Unless you have fed mealworms to a pet before, why would you know? She was obviously upset enough to follow your ridiculous, and potentially dangerous, instructions as best she could.
It's one thing to joke around with people who are obviously in on the joke. It's quite another to further frighten a young person who is already upset about the unknown. Not nice.

Sorry, but it looks too big and too dark to be any meal worm I've ever seen. I bred them for quite a few years for my frogs. But its not a true worm and its definately some sort of larva. Darkling beetles are a member of the lightning bug (firefly) family, if this is a related larva, you might have a true lighting bug baby.
