There is a distinct shortage of children here - what about grown up kids with toys?

He'll defend the right of adults to play with toys.

You won't get DQ'd, but the voters will make you regret it if you care what they think.

Thanks. I have already noticed how this works.

Many literal-minded types seem to do the bulk of the voting, and tend to have firm ideas as to what they want to see. So if you want to do well in terms of scores, best to play safe and colour within the lines.

For the first little while, until you get bored of doing so and have grown a rhinoceros hide. Then you can enter the inages that please you, not the voters, and *suffer* the consequences in terms of low scores. But, I feel, you will earn respect for being different.

Welcome to the craziness and good luck! :-)

I'd consider many of the adults I know "kids". If it is truly a "kid with toys" shot that just happens to have an adult kid, that works for me.

However, I bet you'll get hit by others.

Men might be 'kids'. But I wouldn't call men 'children' which is what is specified in the challenge description. A man can be 'childish' though... I dunno ;)

So,, where's the thin grey line? I don't think that any of these would meet the challenge, although my grandson claims a couple of them.

Yes... that makes them (wives) as old as their own mother.

I hate when "guys" called kids :-\ like we have "obligation" to grow old and act old!

Too often, I have said grow up, as I was in years past.. How irresponsible that..

Hehehe... I just now remembered a photo where a person I know entered a photo of a "TOY"...Yep, sure caused a stir in this conservative lot, it most certainly did.

Be very careful of what you wish for!
