I'm getting a lot of mixed information right now.
Some people are saying that I just need a permission slip from my parents, and then I can be with a 17+ person at all times, and others are saying that my mom or dad has to be there. (And by the way, there's no way my mom or step-father would ever come with me to a con.)
Can this be cleared up by MEW staff somewhere else?
MEW is getting close, and I'd like a solid answer.
Pretty much what is needed is your parent or LEGAL guardian needs to sign the form and say that they are ok with you being with " said guardian" For the convention and will be with where ever you go. So if your parents are ok with "Said gaurdain" and as long as it's ok with the guardian and the guardian is with you at all times. Then you can go into any event but the ones that would have Hentai.( Since you have to be legally 18)
It's so someone's parents go or not; they can distinguish what they want their children to see or hear at the convention. Take for example;
My parents when I was 17 would let me go to 18+ plus shows when i'm with them because their ok with me seeing what ever was going on.(Language, adult content, etc.)
But some parents would be REALLY against it, and would not want their children to go.
Most of what is going to heard or see at the con is what you would see in a rate R movie. (No full nudity) But we do have some girls that do burlesque doing stuff and some do strip to pasties and underwear. So if your parent or guardian doesn't want you to see something like this. Then they don't let you go in said event.
It's easier so we don't have different type badges, and if something happens your parents would be there.
I Hoped this help make it clearer and both LexManos and Legoman 60 are head Staff. As well as me, but were not registration so if you'd like a direct answer the girl running registration would have the best answer.
Here's her contact.

And I apologize for the confusion this has caused.
