Rule about Underage Characters in Stories.

One key piece of information I do not see in this thread:

What age is underage? Age of consent varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, with most being somewhere in the 15-21 span and others disturbingly lower.

I've joined solely because I felt inspired to write something and don't want to get anyone in trouble if I post it and find the jurisdictional differences are a problem. While the main character is in the more normal AOC span, I'd rather find out if there's a problem and tweak the story than cause problems for others.

Thanks

This website is ran from the US so it goes by US laws. Underage is 17 and under. 18 is legally an adult in the US. That means they can do sex work, get involved with porn industry, vote, and can work full time now and over time and can legally consent in all 50 states and can get married without getting permission from their legal guardian or from the judge if they are a ward of the state.

Thanks, I think I'll finish the story and then loop back to see if I can rewrite it so. Hadn't realized the age of consent in the US was so high.

Age of consent being age of being an actual adult might stretch things (e.g. relative looking after the main character) to being incredible so early in the story as to just ruin the read.

I know college students seem more and more childish, and certain college administrators recently compared them to babies but still not sure it'd work in the story.

 

Suspect easiest approach might simply be to omit that detail from the character entirely and let people fill in the blank themselves according to their particular whims. I will think on it.

Underage refers to characters under eighteen years of age.

I think people will find loopholes like make the character 18 but still make them be in high school and are still under their parents rules. Or they make the character over 18 but they make them be petite and small and have no breasts and they lack body curves. Some consider this child porn. Another loophole is making the character be disabled so they act younger and they need to be cared for like they are a child. Some ABDLs may also have a problem with this. Is it still following the story guidelines, yes because the character is 18 or older. 

 

I never like stories where the character has a body of a child because they never really entered puberty or never gotten breasts and they are real tiny. To me that isn't realistic and I want realistic stories. Unless the character has some medical condition like Turner's, then that is different but I know they do that to justify the character's body. It is rare for someone to not ever enter puberty or to not get much breast development. My mom had a friend like that and because of her delayed puberty and lack of breast development and never really getting her first period, she was not able to have kids. It lead to a divorce because her husband wanted kids of his own. There were other problems too in their marriage my mom told me. We have pills for that now. I believe the same pills we give them we give to transgender kids for puberty.

I just went with deleting the age and putting them as finishing school, preparing to go to college. That way people can make up their own minds based on their own perceptions/cultural norms of what would be a normal age for that. Thanks again for clearing things up.

Had nothing so far about the main character's physique, again probably leave that for people to fill in themselves.

 

Surprised mentally disabled characters isn't seen as more predatory than late teen ones but hey, as long as it's legal whatever works for you. Be fine for general, non-sexual, babying but since this thread is specifically regarding sexual situations I'm taking it you mean some write such stories regarding characters like that?

Yes someone here did once post a story about an 18 year old and she had a mental age of a 11 year old. I forget what it was about and what happened in it. But someone else mentioned how the author had given that character a disability to justify his writing.

This subject comes up often, and I thought I had been clear; but we seem to have another instance where someone chased off a writer for a story with kids in it. While I am working to resolve that, I want to be extra clear about our rules:

Stories MAY contain underage characters so long as they are not included in sexual situations or descriptions.

I, myself, write such stories as I am an Adult Kid and I write from and for that perspective; and no member or other mod has the permission to change that rule. This is a rule that will not change as I obviously would not do something that would exclude me from a site I have invested nearly twenty years and tens of thousands of dollars into.

Hi I'm sorry if I missed a different reply. But I wanted to write a story, it's a particularly long story but it's about my life. I was abused as a kid see and some of the story is true but some of the story has been excajurated. Like some of the things the main character goes through might not have actually happened to me. But I was sexually abused which is the reason I'm an ABDL. Just seeing what you thought of that? Many thanks

You can't write scenes of children in sexual situations even if it autobiographical. I'm sorry for what happened to you and I understand wanting to write about it but this rule is in place to protect the website and it's users.

Just out of curiosity are age regression stories okay? Meaning the character is 25 and is age regressed somehow down to a toddler (mentally still 25). If that is allowed than what is permitted with that? Obviously anything sexual is forbidden but would something like breastfeeding be okay? I hope this question isn’t out of bounds

[Man-go]

Hi, I'm new in the forum.

Is nudity considered "sexual situations"?

Sexual stuff is only forbidden for minor characters, if the character is 25 there not a minor there an adult.

I think you'll be fine with breastfeeding, and there's lots of stories with age-regression themes on here so I don't see any reason why you shouldn't be allowed to write one to

Mmmh, like, I can't mention an underage character's butt, etcetera?

One big thing I like to RP about but is close to it is that children participate in the diaper punishment and do torture the 'protagonist'. But more so out of ignorance and simple childish cruelty. That they are pretty much given the go-ahead to bully someone and they don't have to feel bad for it so they go do it in full.
Especially if you fall below a little kid in the rank and that is not just a throwaway line. That they truly do have authority over you and being close-minded and selfish as kids tend to be make use of it to burn out anger or just have some sadistic fun. It's mainly the idea of being at the mercy of someone who doesn't fully grasp their own power or what they are doing.

Well Sh1t man there goes the 2nd person narritive of My autobiography ?.

----------------------------------------

I would have changed the names of course but I would probally be banned for life and probally send people running for a councilor because of the psychological trama they recieved just reading 

Me writeing a 2nd person narritive of my own autobigraphy seems like a liability risk to me man ?

The littles would wake up with extreme night terrors in shutdown mode and the bigs would probally become littles to try to cope with what they just read. 

It just isn't worth it man, especially when my own mental health team has to have a mental health team of their own just talk to them after seeing me for a appointment ?

My current mental healthcare provider seems to take alot of 1 week vacations after appointments with me ?

Not to act too wise to what is happening with that but the adult crisis unit in my area has a 1 week stay and so does the psychatric hospitals for people that aren't a threat and need intensive counciling ?. 

Anyways this is why I probally will never write a story on here tried to be funny and it went really dark really quick.

Well I guess you could consider it darkly funny that I'm so messed up even my mental healthcare team needs intensive counciling after appointments with me ?

Had to edit this 20× already within the course of 6hrs ? I'm done and posting it man ? I had to remove a bunch of stuff because well ... ??not fully awake and the reply wasn't exactly concise. I mean It was so long I doubt it would have posted anyways ?.

most of my stories contain children and adults in nappies for different reasons, but there is no sex involved in any of my stories i don't see nappies as sexual  as they are mostly about families and how they live compared to others even my teen babies or pre-teen babies will never be involved in sexual situations but some might be babied and some might not depending on the characters and the reason they wear nappies.    

[Jace Shepard]

how can you write child characters without describing them a lot of my characters start off as children and grow up as the stories continue i agree with the no-sex situations rule, but the part of the description confuses me can you please explain this to me i mostly write stories about families where both kids and adults wear nappies as part of their families lifestyle or for medical reasons.

I believe he means "sexual descriptions." Don't write about their naughty bits.

ValentinesStuff thank you for letting me know, i was getting worried that I couldn't describe my child's characters
