Five year old playing Apex?
One of the daily 'Apex clips' feeds yesterday showed a five-year-old playing (and streaming) Apex. How do people feel about this? I'm genuinely interestered to know. I would never have allowed my s...

@Zeelmaekers Ehh go watch Hal or Toosh video with Choopi. He is 9 he is very very good at the game as Hal even invites him to play. He is young but with in minutes of him streaming with Hal he had thousands upon thousands of followers and subs.
Kids playing there is nothing wrong with it imo. Everyone deserves to have fun. Only thing id say is bad for them is fellow players who have no respect whats so ever and just say anything to anyone. It is not the little ones fault that adults cant act their ages.
I am all for it but also warn there are childish adults on this game.

@E9ine_AC We finally disagree on something! ;D
I’m a firm believer of let kids be kids, but there are guidelines for a reason. We know games aren’t the main denominator for violence and such but they contribute to it. Letting a 9 year old play a 16/18+ games just because they’re good makes no sense for me as it exposes them to violence and realism they’d not see in their age-appropriate content.
Heck, intercourse consent and pw0rn watching is 18 in most parts of the world. Nowadays 9 year olds watching and doing it without any mind for what they’re doing or even understanding it fully... what does that lead to? A discrepancy between love making and sex... along with the rap young’uns listen to and it’s basically a common thing nowadays for teenage pregnancies to occur... Well at least where I live xD.
Like Eric Cartman sings “In the ghetto, in the ghetto” xD

TBH I am thankful I was a child when I was a child.
One of the people I play with on a semi-regular basis is eleven. Last night he was in tears ... literally crying ... because in two games in a row he was pounced on by a full squad on drop and eradicated. Children this young do not have the emotional capacity to cope with the emotions Apex can produce.
I also do not like playing with children as when I do 'parent mode' kicks in and I spend more time making sure they are okay than I do concentrating on my own game. If they go down and I hear 'help!' in a squeaky voice I can't help but running over.
@EdwardDLuffyPshh choopi would carry you. =P He carried hal for few games lmfao till hal was like eff this try hard time
- @EdwardDLuffy It is interesting to think about the difference of when I was a kid vs my own. I grew up in the middle of nowhere and had a bb gun at like 7 years old. By 10 I'm fairly certain I had a 22 and was killing all kinds of small animals. Shot my first deer with a 3030 at like 12 or 13. It was just normal there at the time. I now live in the city suburbs so hunting is a bit of a pain. I havent done it in years so my kids arent exposed to guns at all.
- @hayhor Well I am in the UK where guns are not really a thing. I've only fired one in my life and that was at a firing range in Florida (I clipped a Lifeline for 15 damage).
Never hunted and never want to (I don't eat animals) but again, it's not really a UK thing.
