I'm curious what brings you to this dilemma.
Perhaps start with the animated version in middle school, then graduate to the real deal in high school? lol
What ingenious argument is being presented by your little one that would convince you to consider such a request?

I know the person who is asking this question. It isn't that he is actually considering his request... His son feels he is being unfair, too rigid and is unwilling to let him grow up. He posted the poll to try and show his son that Dad probably isn't the only one who feels this way.

OK, Im the maybe!

If all anime is being banned in fear of a sexual act or naked body being viewed, I think that is probably overkill

I'd like to see him 13 as well-more in the line of a PG-13 movie

But I dont think anime is 'bad'; it's different

I don't think the OP was attempting to ban ALL anime...the post spoke specifically of Anime PORN.

I let my children watch movies - I do NOT let them watch porn movies.

I let them watch anime - I do NOT let them watch anime porn.

I let them read magazines - I do NOT let them read Playboy, Hustler, or Penthouse (not that either of MY boys would want to LOL, but you get the idea).

No 12 year old should be watching porn of any kind - at any point in time.
