I'll have you know my opinion did not harm anyone, nor was any child harmed in the process of forming my opinion. D&D is not really popular in my country anyway, so I didn't have to go out of my way to avoid playing with kids. But that's not the point. The point is, I meant well. I respect the OP for playing with kids when I would rather not. I respect the OP for being willing to deal with all the logistics and trouble of managing 10 players.  Seriously, that was my intention, but I was never good at giving praises anyway, so I am not surprised that my post was met with hostility. Though I should note that there is a big difference in, being a player among a bunch of kids, and DMing for kids (I am fine with the latter). But still, its odd that you would mention the age restriction being 12+ only, then proceed to insist its a kids game. It depends how you define 'kid', but I thought the most common definition of a kid would be below 12 years, because 13 and above would be a teenager. So you see, my opinion isn't far off from the game developers. You could ask them to give reasons why they think D&D is only suitable for ages 12 and above, and I bet it wasn't because they want to discriminate kids. Whatever their reasons are, you probably won't agree with them, and you aren't obliged to follow. But you already know that. I admit the words that come out of my mouth are rarely music to anyones ears, and maybe I've seen one too many noisy brat who can't sit still for a minute. I know that exceptions do exist, and I did use the phrase 'more likely to treat a game...' instead of 'all kids would treat the game...' But people on the internet always cannot discern the difference. I actually don't mind playing a one shot with kids, but weekly sessions would be a flat no.</blockquote>
