Shaking and crying thinking about them outgrowing their $3,000 adorable rug in 6 months

Or you can build a fursuit together with you child, bonding you know. And it's cheaper than commisioning one.

You can but honestly I’d honestly just get them a partial, because they will grow out of it. Or if you want some fun bonding time you and your kid can make one.

I’m almost 16 with the money for a suit. I earned this money by making suits and I’m done growing. My mom is treating me like I’m 10 and pretending like I can’t buy a suit with the money I earned lol. I’ve made suits since I was 12, I think it’s fair to say that I am invested in the fandom. One day I’ll get the commission I want.

one of these days I’m send this to my mom one day

Never get a fullsuit for a 13-14 year old. Only when you are sure that you stopped growing then get a full suit! :3

My mum apparently asked me what u wanted to be when I grow up when I was only 3, and I said “a wolf!” I’d always tuck the fur in my coat hood in my jeans like a tail and buy headbands with ears. Whenever we played the typical “mummies and daddies” games at school, I’d *always* be the dog. 😅 Been furry trash since day one, people.

Step#1: tell my mom I’m a furry Step#2: tell her what a furry is....

I got my first suit at age 15 (it was a full plantigrade suit and still fits me,) and honestly I think it doesn't matter if kids have fursuits or not, because there's ways to make heads and tailor bodies to accomidate for growing; That goes to say, as long as they're responsible enough to be able to care properly for it, it should be fine. You're going to have to replace the suit within a few years anyway regardless of age. Also, I've never heard of a maker that makes parts of the suit before asking for payment??? I'm a maker and I would never do that, I think that's just asking for trouble.

Please note this is coming from a makers standpoint. As a maker telling them to " ask for them to start before payment then talk payment." Is a great way to have makers be lead on, scammed of time/materials on our end highly potential, and many other difficulties. You should of said see if they will do a payment plan so you only have to put down a down payment so they can order materials for a CUSTOM suit. No maker has every color under the sun to begin with in fur. They can ask for proof of purchase of materials like I do with my clients. Soon as a down payment is made I go over potential furs, let them select out of a few pics of different options for each color, then order right away with screenshot of materials ordered. If I already have that color from brand in stock I let them know. Another option for suits with minors is premade partials. The way you have worded some things can cause normie parents with furry children to be more of a hassle for makers and make more of them do a no minors commissions even with parental consent. This is coming from experience from when I first started making I now have a dragon tail that is too specific from a interaction just like this. The parent changed thier mind because of something they did and now I'm stuck with a tail that I can't sell because it's to charecter specific. Exact situation. A newer maker won't know how to handle that sort of situation and will get pushed around by the parrents, which I've also seen happen. An experienced maker will say either no thank you or throw a super high price so they don't actually have to say no without sounding rude. Other tips you could have given is make sure you read the makers terms of service as these are custom made. Since they are custom made a huge portion of the money is for the makers time along with the materials. These take a long time to make. As a suit can take a maker anywhere from 40-80 hours on the head alone. These things are not made overnight. A friend had a parent demand a tracking number the next day for a full suit. Parents that aren't furries or deal with custom made items do not understand how things like this usually work. Please know this is advice as I do like your videos. And have been watching them for a long time.The rest of the video was put together very nicely and worded great.

I’d say buy a partial and maybe a full body once they’re done growing. And you never know, their fursona or oc might change.

"get your self a nice ice cold glass of Clorox" -quote of 2020

I' m 13 and I've tried to do a head by myself without telling anyone with a walmart mask- when I told my mom I said we could do one together because she loves sewing and craft stuff ETC, I've done a really cool red head, paws and tail and it was REALLY CHEAP to make! I already know how to kinda do it in my own, so growth isn:t a problem!

Another opinion here, I agree with some of the comments and you, fursuits arnt like a video game or a new Xbox, they are a lot of money, and if the young fur really wants a fursuit, the max they should get should be about a partial, for a few reasons. 1. As far as I know getting partial is cheaper than getting a full one. 2. Gives them and idea of what a full fursuit will be like. 3. If they keep growing it’s best to just get a partial until, they can buy their own. That’s all from here, why yes some young furs might be urgent to tell their mom and dad that they want a fursuit, it isn’t always best to do so, give the young fur some time to think it over, and especially give the parents some time to think it over. Welp that’s it from me love the videos, keep up the good work!

And so me as a 12 year old is broken hearted hearing I can’t have a fursuit until I’m 15. *im quaking*

I’m going for a mini partial. I’m 13, just a tail, a head, and some paws

okay. i made a plantigrade halfsuit when i was 10. still fits and I'm 16.

"how old your child is" "they may be too young" *cries in 11 years old wanting a head of my fursona*

I’m 14 turning and have been in the fandom for 7 years so what does that say about me? 😂

I'm waiting until this quarantine ends and then I'm going to comission my fursuit. Anybody know a maker that makes good hoved suits,ideally for a Boar?

I showed this video to my dad and he said he will get me a fursuit

Why do they have to be so damn expensive ???? 😣

I’m a 12 year old making a suit and I’ve been 4’9 since grade 3 👌😬

Everyone: * talking about what Seether said * Me: *Woah what game is that?*

Me a 13 year old hearing the start and wondering how i got here from watching once upon a time from netfix:

hey i been on this fandom for a long time and i haven't get suit and i feel like getting a 16 old with a fursuit doesn't sound bad also if he grows out of it i think he can just get a stretch and a re-fur...

I'm kinda young around my teens, but I've been into this fandom for atleast 3 years. I just recently told my parents about wanting to make some deer legs, their reactions were a bit.. not so good. But ever since I told them, I Have lost my focus in nearly everything for wanting to make these legs. I mean, I can barely sleep or focus on school. Should I give it a break or keep trying to make these legs?

that manokit on the thumbnail--- it was so CUTE- so beautiful too-- also, I built my own fursuit when I was little- I kept building off and taking things off as I grew up xdd I kept the material cheap and simple until I stopped growing, haha. Children should do this, they will see a great improvement as they continue to build and replace as the years go on. I was astonished when I saw how my first suit looked in the beginning and how it looks now.

This is kinda why i just want a dino mask fursuit bc 1: It has more jaw abilities 2: They are just a little over $100 3: they are also much easier to make (in my opinion)

Making your kid save is good parenting because they will under stand if they want to actually spend they’re money on it

I'm not gonna lie, to the based KZfaq viewer that thumbnail title is just top tier meme material.

Remember Exchange costs, Yeah... They are gonna be your arch enemy when getting anything ESPECIALLY FURSUITS. And if you forgot about shipping costs, your gonna be reminded by that hefty fee.

There are a lot of young teens interested in the fandom and suits. The best thing to suggest would be make a partial suit together with the kids. And, even if someone is as tall as they'll get, they could still experience changes in other dimensions. Example: A 13y/o girl is 5'7", and that's likely her full height. However because of her age, a full suit would end up too small in the hips and bust regions because they haven't completed puberty. And a young boy might end up with a much broader chest as well. Full suits are just not a good idea for kids. Especially in care department. Parents, just do your research, gather materials and help your kid make a head. Depending on how well they care for it and if they get good use out of it, then later on consider helping them save for a custom. These are honestly big bucks. It's more important to save for their college or their first car. Consider making them save their allowance, or helping them budget of they're old enough to have a job. Suits are honestly something more for adults. Crap, I nearly forgot.. parents need to remember that wearing a fursuit comes with risk. Besides overheating, when going to a convention (as I've seen many parents do with their kids) in a suit, the more fur there is, the less people will hold back. Many congoers like to get close and hug suiters. Especially in a fullsuit, it may be hard to tell what age someone is. Young people can easily become overwhelmed, uncomfortable, or even violated by others. Many incidents occur where someone tries to give a suiter belly rubs and ends up going too high or too low. It's also possible that other suiters in a group could begin adult conversation with the child, simply because it's hard to tell that they are underage. This is something parents need to take into account. *Disclaimer: obviously I don't mean a convention is not a safe place, but accidents happen when anonymity is involved.

You should probably give your child a partial fursuit instead of a full suit. And try to get a suit that’s a bit larger than they actually are. I’m 12 years old and I have a fursuit with a head legs hand paws and feet paws. But it was a lot cheaper and only costed about 90 dollars because I made it myself so if a child really wants a fursuit maybe help them do research so they can make their own suit like I did. It won’t be perfect at first tho I made my first suit when I was 10 and it was horrible but I’m getting much better at making them! I hope this comment was helpful to someone :P

I’m a kid and I’m making a suit. I bought some paws from furryvalley and to be honest. I like fursuit making, though I only made 1 which is my fursona, Zean.

I started making suits when I was 11, and my first suit was AMAZING. I nailed all the markings and the fur and the shaving and I have no idea how considering I did the suit myself. I still have him even though he doesn’t fit me anymore, he brings back good memories of when I’d play with kindergarteners at my school while in my suit.

The reason why i will be making my kid's full suit. They can then see their characters develop and grow as they grow out of them. Also it will allow me to learn and get better at making the suits.

I know that I’d probably grow out of a fullsuit, and knowing how expensive they are I’ve decided to just create my own partial. I have a dino mask that im designing and I plan on making paws and a tail for it later!

I am a child and have started making a fursuit! my parents cheer it up a lot, and I have discussed what I want, can do or will do and so far I've just decided to with a partial but I absolutely love all the time and love that is spent making it, just seeing the character mold into something that you love. It's also great time spent, I get lots of experience and new techniques. learning from a young age is pretty amazing :)

A possible solution is to make it a family heirloom. Pass it down like some do with other childhood costumes and clothing. There are some makers that I would totally consider heirloom quality.

When I told my parents I wanted a fursuit, they respectably said no, despite the fact that I like to think I met all of the criteria. However, they did put money into buying me supplies to make my own. Personally, I feel like this is a good approach as well. I had fun doing it, it was a good learning experience, and I have so much respect for the work of other makers and am committed to taking care of it because of the fact that I really poured a ton of effort into making her.

I wouldn't get them one at all. Wait until their grown and can buy it themselves. It would be more meaningful to them then just having it given to them.

I’m frickin young but I don’t wanna ask my parents for a fursuit because I will feel like they gon be mad

"If it's near the holidays which it's not" Me: ITS MY BIRTHDAY IN TWO DAYS

My fursuit is only going to be a partial and not a full suit so I can commission the bodysuit when I'm done growing (and I actually think I've stopped)

I would say that would be perfectly fine to get your child a fursuit (if they are mature enough of course)

Him saying it's 8 months before the holidays me watching this in Christmas

I wanna add for parents to make sure that the fursuit maker is willing to work with minors what what age is the minimum for them. Me personally I only work with minors 15 years old (i have it as 13 rn but I'm lifting the age up) and older, and I limit what they can buy. If someone under 17 wants a fursuit from me they can only order a mini partial (head, hands, and tail) since thats what will last longer for them.

POV ur getting a Dino mask fur suit and u don’t know if u need to be 15-16 years old to get one : 👁👄👁

I would give my kids a fursuit but...they already have fur and paws. If only the made them for fish.

2:20 $500 😂. I’m spending over $1200 JUST for my Sergal head. It would be $1800 for paws and tail included. Full suit is over $4k and that’s lowballing it.

I’d say always start with a partial, like a tail and handpaws, maybe even feet or a head, never start with a fullsuit because that can cause so many problems.

I asked my sister for a premade partial on Etsy, about $300 for christmas last year. She laughed in my face. Not asking my family for anything furry-related for awhile..

I feel like this dude is just roasting young furs the whole vid

I’m gonna get a suit once corona virus ends

while im over here wanting a fursuit for years but is too scared to even talk about what furrys are and what my parents googled and found out ab furys is wrong

One recommendation for younger furrys is a dino mask you can adjust the size of the mask and put fur on it yes some people do not say that it is not a fur suit but it is recommended for the child to be fully grown

Adding on: A good alternative is buying a Jurassic World dino mask. They are normally 20 or so USD at target, 40 - 50 (sometimes more) USD on amazon. It is just a mask you can wear, and you can customize it if you want (like with acrylic paint).

My mom checks my watch history and search history. So I put so many things like this in my watch history and search history xd

Tip if your child is under 16 first buy a Dino mask

I’m 14, and my mom doesn’t even know I’m in the fandom. However if I did ask if I could buy one with MY OWN MONEY, she’d say no. I also wanna go to a con but I already know I wouldn’t be allowed that either :( I’m saving up and next summer I’ll be working a job.

sell the fursuit when it's too small

I feel like you can get at least a mini partial when you are about 14 :))

You posted this on my birthday so, Haza!

My first fursuit lasted 13years until my ex wife set it on fire. When I do look into getting my next suit I am going to : 1) Beastcub creations 2) DHC 3) MFL 4) MFY 5) SplinterFox, Or one of the other makers that I have been looking at. Seether as usual you gave sound advice there great work good hearing from you once again. STAY SAFE STAY WELL and STAY FLUFFY. Till the next vid have a great week.

I'm 16 and will be turning 17 in june. I really want a fursuit but I'm broke and I think most of the fursuit makers I like are 18 and older I think

Seether I do enjoy these vids you have going, they can be very interesting and telling on how people take them. Enjoy what you do stay strong things will get going again soon STAY SAFE STAY WELL STAY FLUFFY and be who you are.

One of my friends have had their fursuit for 10 years and yes it doesn’t look as good and have a few small holes but it’s still not ugly !

Me being a furry for 3 years, not gonna tell my parents

Get em a dino mask then ! DONT LET EM MAKE A FULL SUIT THEY WILL GROW OUT OF IT

Me: mom! Can I get a- Mom: no Me: but- Mom: noway

I’m making mine . I’m prolly getting yards of fur and foam for Christmas!!!

Can I out grow of a suit that only has a head, paws, feet paws, and a tail? (Maybe I should leave the tail part out lol but just wondering cause I wanna get one of my own!)

BING CHILLING

I wanna protogen suit but I'm only 11 and that won't turn out well :(

As a 12-13 year old fursuit maker I have a family member my size ( a bit bigger ) and she helps me with sizes as I can grow into my suits for future references ( please don’t argue about my age ) 😊

Me and my mom were building a fur suit instead, I think it’s better than buying because you get skills. Buying usually looks better though.

Thank you so much for this!

I'm having some trouble here I already have my fursona but I'm having some trouble finding a fursuit maker that makes cute and high quality fursuits if you know any please do reply it would be very appreciated

10/10 Space Channel gameplay.

0:50 I"M BOLTED TO THE wall!

I mean...I've order d a fursuit head. I won't outgrow that. Smarty

I've always wanted to cheer up crowds

me, a child who made a partial and a fullsuit with my dad and grandma: this video is a bit late :v

Thanks this helped me out a lot

Fursuits in brazil are like 10.000 of money😢

I stopped basically growing..I'm so short- but I got a partial that's a bit big just a tiny bit so I can get a fullsuit when I fully stop growing.

Bro next year I'ma be 13 and I wanna build my own PROTOGEN.

What website do you recommend for getting a fursuit or any furry parts also love this vid

Another cool idea is buying a raptor mask, you can find these at stores or amazon! They’re pretty cheap and you can paint them! Also the jaws with these mask can move

Oh boy, I'm at this side of the internet again

If I 3D printed my own skull dog and added buckram and fur is that fine? I’m 10 so uh

The problem is my mom thinks she knows me and said “he’ll never dress up like that” guess what.. I’ve been wanting one for months now

It would be much more fulfilling to make a fursuit with your child if they are adamant about having one. That way you haven't sunk so much money into something they won't be able to keep.

I got my first suit at 13, I ordered a larger size and that was a great idea since my fursuit took 1 year to make, when I got it It fit perfectly .

Hi, I'm a bit on the younger side, 10-14 and I want to get a partial. (Head and tail.) I have purchased paws and made masks before. I wanna try and get a partial for Christmas. But I'm debating whether it's a good idea. I can take very good care of it it, I'm just seeking advice. Also. I have found a good head and Etsy shop I want to buy from... The person wearing the suit and showing it looks around 20. I am quite unsure.

What you gotta do is cover it in anthrax

Something that I'm seeing is a lot of young furs starting to make their own suits. One suit I know was made by a minor, and her father's seen her potential well enough that she's getting commissions--though how they're negotiating taxes and payment, I'm not sure. I'm positive the father takes care of the legalities, and I haven't seen anything to suggest he's taking advantage of her gift. I hope she does well. I'm glad that more people are starting to create, because that could mean more competition and options. I must say that I'm coming across a strange predicament, what with me being older. Quite often when I'm heading to events, the fursuiters I come across tend to be under the age of 18. Very rarely are their parents with them, which can be troubling in and of itself. I'm not doing anything untoward, but the social landscape is a bit awkward to navigate through when you can potentially have a bad situation. I'm not even sure letting them know my age helps matters, but if there isn't anyone looking after them, I tend to keep an eye on them myself. At a convention I attended before the worldwide quarantine, I came across a young fur who was 12. The only time I saw either of her parents was when her father came to pick her up. She was lonely otherwise and I was trying to keep her company. =_= I think what happened was they got to the check-in and after he checked her in, he just left her there. Parents, please don't leave your children unattended at a convention.

My daughter walked up to me and said "can i have a fursuit" i didnt know what else to say except yes and now she has like 7
