Not trying to be negative but kids now days do not like to read PERIOD! I don't know the answer to your question but I would be willing to bet not many do read these forums. Some might look at the pictures if they are pointed out to them first but do the reading.... I doubt it.

I am with Munszie on this one. I wonder how many kids even go to forums as they think they know everything.

Well I'm reading them, and I've been 17, err, 18, for almost 30 years!
I don't think American kids are geared toward this type stuff, very few, if any.
But, I couldn't be so sure about a world-wide population of kids, depending on, where they could be from, their interests, resources, etc....... It is an interesting subject to ponder for a moment, thank you.
Thanks guys below, we need to be aware, there are young hunters here, too.
Thanks for the reminder.

i have never seen anything objectionable on here that i would not want my kids to see! as far as kids reading this forum.........why would they if they were not into detecting?

I'm 20, and been reading for years. There are still lots of kids who like history, and the thrill of a treasure hunt never dies out! In fact, many video games have treasure-hunting components built into them. Just think of all the kids who see you at the beach, that is how I got started.

My Grand kids get on here and read the post . Three of them anyway , 9,10, 12 . They really like to see what everyone found and then ask me why I can not find things like the others do ! ;-)

Thanks for the replies guys.
Am a little surprised to find that kids actually read our posts, thought it was strictly for old fuddy duddys like me.
I stand corrected.
