If I were a parent, I would want my kids exposed to the culture, environment, and attitudes of the playa but not until I had gotten a handle on them, personally, first.

Thanks for your comment!

I recently had a question about this very subject from a non-burner friend of mine who was interested in Flipside. It was covered by another parent that is a burner, but now I have an “official” reference. My suggestion to parents is to attend the burn solo first. Everyone has a different experience. For me it isn’t necessarily what the child will be exposed to, but my own ability to take care of my child(ren) when everything is so shiny, pretty, and distracting to me. My two cents anyway…..love and light all!
