Thanks Danny, this post is really appreciated. I have taken kids of various ages to conventions for varying durations of time for the past six years, and I like to think I've done a reasonable job of ensuring they don't have an impact on anyone else's con (although, of course, yes, they seriously impact upon my own con experience, but then, that's my choice). And I think people underestimate the indoctrination process we put our kids through - if we get them into cons at an early age, understanding what conventions are, and being part of that scene, surely that's breeding the next generation of fans, hopefully a generation who are going to be understanding of all of fandom in all its glory?!
