I have two little brothers age 8 and 10. I want to get them into Dnd but my mother says they are too young. She says let them stick to pretend. I say they're old enough. What do y'all think?

What is her idea of what D&D is? Unless you're in the "D&D is the spawn of the devil" camp, it's ALL pretend, isn't it? In any case, I was about 9-10 or so when I began playing D&D. I wouldn't try to teach anyone younger than that, though I haven't seen the beginner/introductory set that was mentioned earlier.kanithardm said:She says let them stick to pretend.

While yes, they can feasibly play D&D, assuming that they can both read and do basic math, getting on the wrong side of your mother with regards to D&D is never a good idea. Especially when it comes to your little brothers (her children). One way or the other, it's not a battle you can win, and either way... it's not your place to tell your mother what your brothers (her children) can or cannot do.
Let it go. Try again in a couple years.
