This is a question that has been floating in my mind for a while. Being a 12-year-old myself, I have been asked this many times by adults who clear...

Pleased to meet you - we are all for kids coding! Languages are easier when you are young. Youth often have passion and creativity and are not jaded - all good qualities. Please drop on by zimjs.com we love the front end!!! Code creativity!
Just dedicated a post to you! dev.to/zimlearn/what-s-after-scrat... Cheers.
Why not? 🙂
I see coding the same way as playing games. Both work in front of a computer. Kids and adults are doing that anyway.
Improve your talent silently, don’t try to impress people directly by talking about coding in person. Only talk about it IF THEY ASK. Write blog posts about your learning journey online. People would accept it. Believe me!
Well, adults are adults. They're supposed to know everything. Sort of. They at least are expected to know more than me, which they 100% succeed in. I usually only talk about coding if they are interested like you said. However, I've been trying to start coding classes for my peers, some of which are older than me, and they certainly don't know more than me in certain areas. So I'm already following your formula 😀.
As for blog posts, nah. I'm not doing that. Well, on dev.to, I already am. Not really, but close enough.
One last thing.
Coding is not the same as playing computer games!
Well, that's going to be the most memorable thing I've ever read. Thank you for this and I want to say that you should never stop this process and always try not to care about others. It's you who builds you. I hope you will send me a message on Instagram in a few years and praise your success. in a few years, find me with the hr_ghafoori ID on Instagram 😉
Thanks!
I am just a year older and I can definitely agree with you on most points. It's really cool to impress your friends(and you get that sweet reputation) with websites and unless you are doing something crazy back end is only nice the first time because after that it became a repetetive. Really wished I had more time I could spend programming
yeah lol.... it's hard multitasking. Being a kid AND surviving school AND running a business AND coding is really hard for me :D
Kids should definitely learn coding! The job opportunities are endless, plus it's great for logic and, well, a lot of things.
Anyway, all that said, I admire your abilities. Yes! Kids should code. At 14, I don't really see how an adult could code any better than a kid. I know someone who made several apps, some software, and a couple websites before they were 15.
Cheers!

Yes definitely. I started coding when I was 14 but I really wish I stayed with it and was more serious about it back then.
Chances are, you were more serious about it than you think :)
Yes, Kids can code visit code.org/ they are great for kids coding
