Any parents coming with their children?

[kuher]

Hi there,

We are a couple who are thinking of coming with our little one and were wondering if anything other parents want to team up?

Hi,

there are no kids allowed at Fusion, only at the camping area "Insel"

With a kid you will just be allowed to camp in one specific area and will be surrounded with other families with kids. Anyone without kids is not allowed in that area. So I bet you'll be able to connect with people there fairly easily once you arrive even if maybe nobody responds here.

Here someone talks about how it was there last year (it's in German though):

Hey my dear Fusionists,

I was reading about your plan to go together with your kid. I am a father myself and will explain, why I'm leaving her with their grandparents.
First of all the kulturkosmos did inform us, that they had to do some changes to their policies about children on the Festival area. These changes where enforced by our govermantal child protection agency. You will find some informations here : https://www.fusion-festival.de/de/faq#k ... ugendliche

My personal opinion: I love the Fusion and I would love to show this awesome place to my child one day, -but everything has it's time...
Children have different needs, than we grown ups and I don't think that these fit together. I saw a lot of times, how young, cool parents tried to keep up with their lives from before the time they became parents and had lost focus on their childrens needs. All these stimuluses (audio, visual, crowds of people) are a lot to deal with for a young mind. I saw fathers dancing with their children on their shoulders, not seeing their faces, while the children looked more than confused by what was going on, -sometimes even scared, pointing towarts the exit of the Sonnendeck.
Do not get me wrong: I am not saying, that people who take their children wouldn't begood parents. I am not going to judge your capabilities of parenting by a small view from the outside. I rather want to give you the oportunity to rethink, if you will find on the Fusion what you are looking for, without neglecting the needs of the young persons under your supervision.

We decided to give our daughter some time with her grandparents, whom she deeply loves and she is excited to go there. And we gift ourselfs some time as a couple. Just as we enjoyed Fusion in the time before taking responsibilities for another human being. (We also avoid having "Shifts" of partying and being sober that way )

I hope you will find a good way to enjoy yourselfs and have a happy, fullfilling time with or without your Kids!

See you at the Fusion!

Yea this sounds like it's for the best.
It's gonna be boring for them to just sit in the camps, and from my experience in other events, noone wants kids around.
