Fellow parents, when did you have “the talk” with your child about wrestling?

Wait 5 sec.

I’m a casual fan, at best. Go to the occasional AEW show when they’re in town. Catch 2-4 ppvs a year. Etc. so my daughter (9- 3rd grade) is a very casual viewer of wrestling. It’s not her favorite thing but occasionally if it catches her she can get really into it! I’m curious when to have the talk about wrestling’s pre-determined nature. At this point she seems to believe it’s 100% real. And while that is cute af, I know it’s only a matter of time before the illusion takes a hit. I think she would be embarrassed if someone at school or something told her flat-out, particularly if she had no idea. So I’m curious how you all have or would handle discussing the nature of wrestling with your kids or nephews or whomever.   submitted by   /u/joesephed [link]   [comments]
