Should adults over 18 have their own version of yahoo answers?
494232
I can see your argument but if you look at some of the questions teenages and sometimes younger ask and then read some of the answers that their peers give it's scarey.\n\nWe might have forgotten but when we were teenages we all thought we knew everything and in reality we knew very little. If there are youngsters asking questions it's got to be better to have some adults giving sensible factual answers than the ill informed answers others youngsters will give them.\n\nI like the idea of an adult only area where if youngsters or christians choose to go they couldn't complain about the topics of discussion or language used there. But would it deteriorate into a somewhat sleazy area much as the adult groups area has, which by the way Yahoo would love to remove completely? Which also brings up the problem of responsibility - Yahoo wouldn't want it because some holier than thou pillock would want to regulate it. \n\nGood idea though.

hallelujah .\nI suggested to yahoo a special category ,\nHuman sexuality ,\nso that beings from out of space who know nothing about humans and who are apparently checking up on us ,judging by the questions\n,and those humans who  have lived in total isolation of other humans  ,\n could check up on all these forever asked questions and find out what they want to know ,with out having to loose points and annoy those who are tired of the same questions ,\n\nespecially masturbation, if there is anything on this planet we all  instinctively know how to do ,it must be  this one.\n\nAnd i don't agree with kids having a age category ,that is as bad as racism,some kids are a lot wiser than a lot of adults i know ,and you cannot hide the world from them ,that would be a lie, and only drive them INTO the wrong direction ,not AWAY from it .\n\nSome people forget what they were like at eleven

Before the children told their friend, the site was mostly adults.\n\nYahoo believes that their numbers for Users is great but does not understand that right now for every 10 adults, there are 90 kids, some as young as 8 or 9 (the limit is 13).\n\nI'm 58 and have been here since last December when it started.

I think its a good idea to see an age just so some of us old guys who are on here dont get friendly with the kids. If I know Im talking to a kid I stop sometimes you dont know its a kid, there are adults on here too.\n I even went as far as going to the bottom of the answers page and asked them to consider a room for us older people.Yahoo has a suggestion link. \n I see your point cause there are weirdo's out there....but for me, if I know its a kid,,,I dont get involved\n ALSO IF THERE ARE ANYMORE people out therewho are older it would not hurt to send a comment to yahoo asking for a old people place. Adults and kids both would be happy if they had it

they need to have some type of age restriction on this site, no idea how they would go about doing that though

I totally completely agree with you. a few minutes after i got on the site, i was amazed at the questions being asked. i was like, "this is unbelievable." lots of them were very inappropriate. lots of them were also needing-help questions. like homework, friends and family, but their should be a limit to all this. \ni like to answer appropriate questions, and ask them too. but i stay away from and ignore inappropriate ones. if my mom were to see all the stuff on this website, she would seriously flip and ban me from this site. \n\npersonally, i believe there should be separate yahoo answers: adult, teenage, 9-14-year-olds, and 7-8-year-olds. \nfor your little one, the 8 year old, i suggest you to block this site in case she has seen it, and tell her about the dangers of being on this site.\n\nanyway, i completely agree with you, and sometimes i know parents can be over-protective, but they are mostly right.\nletting children explore the internet and it's useful resources is one thing, and going on sites that you may accidentally give out information about yourself to strangers is another. completely.\n\ngood luck!\n(you are one of the most caring moms i have heard from. :) ---i'm glad you brought upn this topic so people can see your point of view and others about this site)

You know in the Teen & Preteen  page, this is for adult here. Are you a juvenile? Asking questions of adults when you should be asking chilren your own age, on the childrens page.

I am 53. I play Serious Sam on line, I do Teen discos, I head bang to AC/DC, Zep, Van Halen, Jet and Green day. This site is for any age to come and either ask or express or answer. Older people are usually wiser than younger people. All in all I would say the mixture of cultures, races and ages on this site, is second to none. It is necessary to have different views, and just because bushbot acts about 11 and is rude it doesnt mean to say we all follow his silly ways. Hey bushbot, what would you think if we all reported you for abuse. Your question was perfectly legitimate Krystina.

i completely agree with you, there needs to be a block on content on here. i mean, minors still have the right to ask questions on this topic, but they should have their own category

Does it make sense to you to have teens (who need answers) asking other teens (of whom very few know the REAL answers)  about important and sometimes very very serious issues?  That is why it is good that adults also use Yahoo answer.  And it is good to have people of all ages and experience sharing with each other and asking/answering questions.  If you feel that this is a teen site, i beleive you are mistaken.

if you are over 18 the questions are the same as if you were over 50.

does your yahoo account make your age over 18? If not yahoo blocks you.

I like the smartass Refresh's answer: duh, time for an Yahoo revolution. Real bright, huh? Just like when he answered my question about the sexually explicit questions being asked by young people on this site. Telling me to "get a life" because I was concerned that pedophiles might use the site to stalk some of the teens asking questions about sex. Hey, Refresh, Are you a pedophile? If not, then why did you attack me so vehemently, accusing me of being of the censorship mentality. By the way, yes I am all for censorship when it comes to minors combining sexual conversation with open internet sites that can be accessed by pedophiles. Looks like you should freshen up on human ethics, Refresh. How ironic a name, by the way.

I am 40 and have a very full and happy life.  I don't spend my entire day/night on yahoo!answers, but I do visit in between projects at work.  I'm on here because I've noticed that there are a lot of people - both young and older - who have honest questions and are looking for answers from "experienced" men & women.  I guess that includes me...\n\nSometimes it's more comfortable to approach an outsider for advice than someone you know.  What better forum than the internet, where you can be as anonymous as you want?
