Well, I think it depends on what you like. It also depends on what the show is... ...Like, for example, I can watch the Ren & Stimpy Adult Party Cartoon ( Shhh... Don't tell mother... << >> <<...) and end up cracking up at all the gross stuff, but, at the same time, I can watch Pee-Wee's Playhouse, and end having just as much fun screaming at the secret word as I can watching Ren & Stimpy APC. XD But... That's just me. However, what I DON'T like is when people shove it down you to stop watching cartoons. >_< "Ohhh.... You're a TEENAGER now! You should be watching more MATURE things than this!!" Um, sorry, but most of the real stuff on TV, in my eyes, is just... crappy. (no offense to those of you who DO watch real TV) In fact, the last real life TV show I watched without being FORCED to was... Degrassi? Yeah, that was it, and that was up at my aunt's place a month or so ago. ; So yeah. So pretty much what I'm trying to say here is that: I watch cartoons, even mature ones. It all just depends on what you like if you find a cartoon "childish" or not. And if you DO find cartoons "childish", please don't try and FORCE me (or anybody else) to stop watching them, as it does get annoying.

I kind of agree with Kimi that cartoons are mainly for kids... but like what a lot of u said, it depends on the cartoon. I mean, you can get cartoon PORN- definitely not for kiddies XD
I think stuff like Camp Lazlo IS mainly for children, but I think it can be enjoyed by teenagers & adults too. And I don't think there's any shame in liking them as a teen or adult = ] And like AB said, I don't think ppl should try to stop u watching them...
I have to admit most people I know in real life stopped liking cartoons (besides the simpsons) when they were like 10 or 8. Most (not all) ppl over here are more interested in being chavs lol. No offence to anyone who is also from the uk...

I don't think cartoons are just for children, I think if you like something it shouldn't matter what age you are as long as you enjoy it that's all that matters.

Honestly, I have to say that, well... cartoons are for children.
Why? Well, they're made for children, they're targeted at children. They're made with kids in mind, not teens or adults! They are originally made for children, so yes, they are "childish". Think about it... if Dora the Explorer had the same humor stylings as Family Guy... well, it wouldn't be a very popular pre-school show now, would it? Cartoons are made for children's entertainment.
However... this doesn't mean that teens and adults can't enjoy them too! I agree with Anime Blob, and I hate when people say "Oh, you shouldn't be watching these cartoons!". We should be able to enjoy whatever shows we please without judgement.

You're forgetting that there are adult cartoons as well. "The Simpsons" and "Family Guy" being two prime examples.

it pretty much depends on your definition of "cartoon" and the target audience of the show
cause like. if you consider "cartoon" to be anything and everything animated (from Dora the Explorer to Family Guy to Fullmetal Alchemist) obviously the answer is no. if you think the term is only attached to things that play on Nickelodeon and such. then. well. yeah.
but. just because something isn't in your age bracket, certainly doesn't mean you cant enjoy it. if you find entertaining. watch it!

This is what I have to say about cartoons. They make the world go round. I think that cartoons are better than other shows. I watch them because TV nowadays is dead. So the only thing that I like and I grew up with on is cartoons. I think they are made for children but some older people watch them. This is what I say "Your never to old for cartoons!" But that is just my opinion.
