Yeah, that makes sense! I see where you're coming from a little more clearly now

Tbh, I've not seen a lot of minors getting into this but then again, most of my interactions with the community have been in person and local, with only other adults, so I'm not super well versed in the online age regression community/culture.

Misinformation and kids being judgy of something they might not fully understand is really frustrating, especially when they're trying to claim that they too are age regressors :( it's important to remember that kids, especially teens, are trying to explore themselves and set themselves apart from their peers and adults, which is where the attitude of "this is not for adults, you're weird/bad if you don't do it the way I think it should be done" might come from. Luckily (hopefully), most people grow out of it. But yeah, that is really frustrating to see :/

(also slightly off topic but I've never heard the term "pure" regression before, I honestly didn't think there was a word or a distinction between regression having meltdown/tantrums vs not)

It’s always bugged me when someone says they want to get into agere like it’s some fashion trend or a cutesy little thing to do on the weekends. It’s not. It’s a coping mechanism that comes from mental illness or neurodivergences. It’s not just dressing up and playing with toys, it’s sobbing into stuffed animals, shaking in fear because it’s the only time you can. If you want to dress like a kid then sure whatever, kidcore. If you wanna play with kid toys? Have fun! But that doesn’t mean you age regress. To me it’s like (similar not saying it’s to this extreme or that it’s as bad as when someone does this) when someone gets into DID, trying to say they have alters. I’ve seen DID and it’s a disability for a reason. Which isn’t to say if you found out you age regress and wanna get into the community, that’s different!

I’m not saying that voluntary age regressions are invalid, they totally are! I’m saying I don’t see how someone can make themselves an age regressor because they want to be one. Age regression isn’t a trend, it isn’t cute (while we are all adorable and can do cute things), it’s hard and upsetting and sometimes confusing. It’s kind of insulting when someone tries to become one when they aren’t. Anyways, what are your thoughts on this?

[amberroseyrae]

I see where you're coming from, but I kind of disagree. When I hear someone say that they "want to get into" age regression, I hear that they want to see if they can age regress and adopt it as a positive coping mechanism, which is totally valid. And while age regressors who have meltdowns/tantrums are totally valid in their regression, so are age regressors that don't have that experience.

When I first heard about age regression, I was curious to try and see if I could regress and what that would look like for me (I voluntarily regress). I discovered that I could, and that for me it was a way to re-experience the positive part of my childhood without heavy religious undertones and chronic illness (there were a few years where I was very sick as a kid and a lot of time was spent in hospitals). I don't experience tantrums or meltdowns or anxiety during regression, and that's ok. That doesn't mean I don't regress, or that I'm somehow not a true age regressor, just means that that's how agere looks for me and how I experience it.

Everyone starts out differently and gets different benefits from age regression. We don't need to invalidate someone's experience because it looks or started differently than our own.

Edit to add: even if it is becoming "a trend" what's wrong with that? Just seems like more people discover a potentially positive coping mechanism and maybe there's more understanding and acceptance for age regressors :) win win

Animal crackers and apple juice

They’re just special to me, whenever I have either it just brings me right back to my childhood. I feel safe and so happy. I remember summers where me and my sister would sit out on the lawn and play pretend. I miss that.
