kids at cons

Bad.I feel like all cons should be 18+ at this point. Both because they've always been a space primarily for manchildrein and whatever the equivalent for women is, but also because of how many perverts attend cons (both now with your Comic Con example and in the past). But at the same time it feels like there are fewer kid-friendly spaces these days in general, so it might be better to risk bringing your kids to events like cons than letting them rot in front of Fortnite all day. Arcades have also turned into places mainly aimed at manchildren and perverts (I can't think of a single arcade in my area that isn't a barcade, and we have many large arcades where I live), but I wouldn't say those should be 18+ as they don't have a tradition of being aimed at an 18+ crowd (despite the aforementioned barcades usually kicking all the kiddies out and becoming 18+ once it gets late enough in the evening).

Good and should allow, I see no reason not to allow kids to go to cons. Kids are exposed to violence and the danger of dying every single day. It is the parents' responsibilities to guide their kids.

I don't mind them at your average convention but parents need to constantly watch over them most the time for safety reasons, some parents treat it like some kind of daycare

Kids at cons should be allowed during daytime hours, exposure to cosplay and the hobby is better for kids than wanting to be some retarded streamer or just watching brainrot skibidi shit at home, it gives them something to work on and a craft to perfect. After about 6 or 7pm no one under 18 should be allowed on the con floor unless accompanied by someone over the age of 21 and even then I’d like it to be with proof of hotel stay only but I know that’s a reach. Going to Holmat and seeing retarded 16 year old Hazbin kiddies screeching while I’m trying to get my midnight buzz on made me want to blow my brains out and realize that it is an epidemic and many boomer and now gen X parents are making it daycare, sometimes the whole weekend through. At Holmat 2019 I deadass witnessed a woman check in at the Mariott for her underage daughter and then a seperate room for herself and presumably she was planning to fuck off to the bar or Disney or whatever it is middle aged white women with no personality do while her screeching autistic teenagers run amok.

Kids are fine most of the time, but really depends on the con and how it’s run. If a con is clearly family-friendly, then people should expect kids and behave accordingly. If it’s more of a free-for-all where people are pushing the boundaries with NSFW cosplay and merch, then maybe having kids around isn’t a good idea.That said, turning every con 18+ because some people push the line is overkill. Cons just need better sectioning, family areas vs. adult zones, so everyone knows what they’re walking into. If parents bring their kids to a con full of lewd cosplays and hentai booths, that’s on them.Also, let’s be real, half the 'kids shouldn’t be at cons' crowd in this just doesn’t want to be reminded they’re aging weebs.

Kids at cons are fine. As long as they are interested and supervised. Too often you see couples dragging their baby/toddler around or 13-17 year olds not knowing how to behave in public.

I want to take my 9 year old sister to an anime convention with me so she can dress up as Chiyo (I cosplay as Osaka). (Also I'm an adult lol) I think it would be so adorable, and also fun, but I'm worried about her seeing weird stuff (although she's unfortunately already on the internet constantly so like, she can handle nerds and seeing some slutty cosplays lol.) I've never been to a an anime con before (only like, more local sci-fi or video game ones) and they were fine but anime is it's own thing. I think she'd probably have fun because she LOVES dressing up and she loves doing stuff with me, and she likes some little kid animes, but I don't want her to feel left out and I especially don't want her to see anything actual sexual or disturbing (like... Actual hentai/gore/etc). Idk, is it a bad idea to take her? She wants to go but would be okay with not going too

Just finished taking my kids to our con, 3 under 3. The fact is weebs are growing up, so they're going to be there unless you designate areas or cons in general as 18+. Currently they aren't designed for young kids like mine, so I find myself sequestering myself to areas where they won't bother people (lots of con goers have autism and I want to be respectful), touch their costumes, etc. that being said, seeing people light up at our cosplays makes it worth it, and my partner and I met at that con too so it's hard not to go each year.

F*cking hate them. They're insufferable, instable, rude little sh*ts and their parents do absolutely nothing to keep them in line. I support the idea of a minimum age of 18 to attend cons.

i think being a teen and going to cons is a core experience. But teens are insufferable at times, at the end of the day its just a space to be yourself. If you mean little kids middle school and under, i think parents should just protect their kids away from creeps and stuff. groups of teens as well, although I dont think a parent coming is necessary for like 15+.. Creeps target everyone.this also goes for older female cosplayers who like allow photos like the OP to happen. I think they are creeps too and should have accountability. Parents just be smart.

If the general con space is relatively family-friendly I don't mind school-aged kids (age 5 and older) going, as long as they're well-behaved. But babies and toddlers? Leave them home. They don't want to be there; they'll probably get cranky or overstimulated and they won't remember the experience anyway. Navigating around strollers and big-ass wagons in the dealer's hall and hearing a baby cry one booth over in the dealer's hall isn't fun for other congoers, either. They're only brought because parents don't want to take the time or spend the money to get a babysitter.

>What do you think of kids at cons? I saw a like 3-4 year old Nezuko waddling around at a con once with her parents. She found a Shinobu plushie and kept trying to get her mom's attention to buy it for her, but her mom was yapping to some other person and couldn't hear her. It really inspired me to keep going to cons, because some day I'll have kids of my own, and I'll take them to cons with me too.

Cons are usually centered for comics, video games, and anime. AKA shit for kids. Unless it's explicietly an 18+ event, or something that should be (I don't know why people take kids to casinos, that shit is degenerate), why should kids be barred?If you're walking about with your ass and half your labia sticking out, that's on you. If you don't want kids seeing something, don't do it in a kid-prone place. My local con has 18+ events, usually events that occur after 7pm.

Cons should be 18+, honestly. Lots of NSFW artists, VERY skimpy cosplays, and just general gooner behavior. Not sure why they haven't went 18+ yet.

Its the parents that are more annoying than anything with trying to get pics that the kids just honestly dont care for, neither do I really want to be having my pic taken with kids even if my cosplays are always sfw. Cosplayers arent quirky props for your photo reel, we're people trying to have a fun time, and probably so are their kids.

I say let kids attend Anime conventions. I don't get you fucking weirdos with your hatred for kids other than the fact nobody wants to have children with you BPDemoms and degen males or you're still traumatized by some normies kids mocking you for playing dress up or because you're autistic.Keep the skimpy slutty cosplays for nighttime shit when there aren't any kids.

parents taking their 0-12 year olds everywhere is annoying. Gen X and Millenials dragging their annoying unruly kids to cons or dressing them up for social media points is frustrating at best and disgusting at worse. Its less then a decade, either skip the con or get a baby sitter dont make the rest of us nerds deal with your mistake.teenagers are annoying but fine as long as they go home before the late night stuff. They generally stick to their groups and its part of cons to have annoying teens crying over their first breakup. its like music.

Maybe I'm some sick perverted freak but I don't actually think kids seeing a glimpse of some cleavage or ass cheeks is all that big a deal, kids have existed around people in bathing suits for decades fine. Yeah you shouldn't fuck kids or let them get addicted to porn but entirely shielding them from sexuality/the human body then just dropping them into it at 18 seems silly.

Lets kids be at cons but only with the parents' understanding they may see some adult stuff, don't make it anyone else's problem.People should be most concerned about what kids are seeing on their phones or tablets, a little T&A at a con won't hurt them.
