I am actually so serious I think it really messes with a childs creativity and joy to tell them to never make a mary sue OC. Like that unbridaled form of joy where you make a self insert OC who super cool and everyone loves them and they have every superpower in the world SHOULD be something a kid makes, it nourishes their ability to create things for fun and not be stifled by "oh but what if my character is too overpowered and cringey...". whatever

Children should be encouraged to let their imagination soar through the sky!
ESPECIALLY if they're partaking in something as art!
If a 7 year old is excited to show you his drawing... and you noticed that the drawing has a bunch of scribbled lines and clashing colors...
Would you tell him how you believe his drawing is cringe and that he should learn how to make “good art”?
No! Because children's brains are still developing. Of course they might be inexperienced when they're making art such as creating OCs!
Telling a child to not be cringe is like telling a bird to not fly.
Because children being cringe is a healthy way for them to grow up.
It's how their brains grows and they will learn to not be worried about being made fun of because they just wanted to create something.
That's why I LOVE seeing art made by children! I love that they decided to take on a medium that lets you go wild with your imagination!
And they did! And while they may not be THE best at it... they were still doing THEIR best.
Let them have fun. Let their imaginations shine. Tell that 7 year old that you liked his drawing. We are cringe but we are free.
