My 6 year old wants a parrot.  I don't think it's a very good idea.  Is there anything you can tell me about them?
Yes! There are 393 species of parrots! They are mostly found in tropicals! From what I hear and read they are friendly pets and they can also talk!
oh my gosh!!  I had no idea!!  I wonder if they do well as pets?
Yes, generally most species of parrot can make excellent companions! They are fairly large as birds and they beautiful to look at as their colors vary from the rainbow or neutral colors such as white.
They are very beautiful.  I've seen them at the zoo.  I wonder how much they can really talk?
I'm not sure, but parrots that interact with their human counterpart end up talking a lot more I'd assume?
I would say for sure.  That would be funny if they started talking to Amazon Echo
Yes! That would be hilarious if a smart speaker would interact with the parrot. I wonder if Alexa would be able to interact with the parrot.
I suspect it could!  It would be super funny to come home to the music playing the parrot's favorite song! 
Haha it'd be terrible if Amazon Alexa set alarms and to do lists from the parrot as well!
