Only freerolls. 😀When I was in high school, I discovered cash games through online poker. I didn't have a credit card yet, so I asked my parents to act as my deposit and withdrawal agents. But my parents wouldn't allow me to play poker, saying that "gambling at poker can ruin you. Would you allow your child to play cash games?

Only if they could show that they are a proven winner at whatever stakes they are choosing to play at and are practicing good Bankroll Management (occasional shot-taking allowed obviously).
BUT I refuse to listen to any badbeat stories... AND if I hear one 'RIGGED' comment coming out of their mouths their internet privileges will be cut off immediately!
how they sign up to a site will be on them. I would take no part in it. I would prefer if they chose to hold off and wait until they are at least 10years old before signing up to an online poker site. I understand that it is likely they can be a proven winning micro stakes player at under 10yrs. of age but I think it's important that they focus on their 'times tables' (ie. basic math that will be essential to their poker careers - multiplication & division, %, ratios etc)
