Children and magic

[Mattao19]

I'm 19, but I wish my dad had the time to sit down and learn magic. He's bought me cards and stuff before and he supports the fact that I play the game, even tells me good luck on Fridays, lol. I'd love if when I have kids they're interested in the game and want me to teach them, though.

Surprisingly I haven't told my parents that I play lol not that they would mind but its just an extra thrill to sneak around to play lol

I kept it a secret from my mom for the longest time, but not because she's a flaming super Christian and thinks bs like each individual card has a demon on it or something... Needless to say, I had no childhood because of her, otherwise I would have started playing magic a whole lot sooner.

I just want to scoop you up and play tons of magic or something! Just to make up for your childhood!!  If you're close to Reno Nevada, and you need some magic cards, come see me.

I got my 8 year old into playing, and take him to Fnm. He always goes at least 2-2, and people enjoy having him there.

This is what I like to see.

I've seen children at fnm before, but they're usually snobby brats while their parents are out doing something else. If you can find a good player, that's awesome, but if he or she is a child then that adds to the amazement.

I used to play when I was about 10, which is when I started so I can relate. This is why I feel it's nice to get them into it now so when they're older they are well versed. That is to say they stick with it over the years.

Lol thanks. xD unfortunately I live all the way in Northern North Carolina, otherwise I'd come over. =P We can play some wall games if you like, though? And I'm always up for online trades lol.

[Ertai]

Unfortunately I only trade sets. (It's a security thing) also, I'm not too familiar with wall games, but I was checking them out. Sounds kind of fun, and sounds like a tourney of wall games is in order. Has that ever been done?

[Vileo]

Yeah, I don't have any sets, lol. And I'm not sure about a tournament, wall games normally take a really long time.

I'm over in San Francisco. If  can make it to your shop or if you come down to my area for a bit maybe we could meet at an fnm or something?

Also, link to website?

I know I said that I like kids to learn magic but yesterday I had to play a 7 year old. He actually had more experience than me lol and even took game 1 bc I (honestly) didn't take the game seriously. I still tried but I purposely misplayed bc he had a polukranos out and he was so happy then he swung I had Doom blade in hand and he blood rushed GCR and he was excited bc that was lethal he had no other creatures out and next turn I had lethal but I just couldn't he was so happy lol

* I then smartened up and took the next 2 games easily but I felt bad

It wasn't my parent, but my uncle and his friends who brought me into magic. I loved the game from the beginning. My first deck was given to me by my uncle--It was a poison counter deck {Marsh Viper} used to scare me --and him and I would play games and he would destroy my deck. He and his friends taught me by challenging me. I've always had someone to play with.. at the time. Now they've moved away from me and I find myself, quite literally, playing decks against no one. When/If I would have kids if they wanna play Magic with me or just learn how it works I will gladly teach them and play with them whenever they want to play, just because I didn't have that opportunity when I was younger.
