Default What about letting one housemate go in who is under 18?
What do you think? Maybe if they let a housemate go in who was around the age of 15 to 17?

Would it be a good idea? Or would it be an excuse of chaos?

I think its illegal, without a parent, and you cant have children on a TV set for longer than a certain amount of hours.

And it would also be illegal for them to drink alcohol and smoke I think [I can't remember the age thing for smoking - sixteen?]

Yeh, so they wouldn't be able to smoke or drink which could be a problem when everyone else is. If they ever did then Big Brother would be in the ****.

You can smoke at 16 but you cant buy cigarettes until your 18.

I think having someone actually turning 18 in the house would be interesting - imagine the party then!

No!!
They wouldn't be emotionally mature enough to deal with being on BB and would be forbidden to do certain things that the other hms could do.

Would throw up plenty of legal issues... So no and many reasons why!

I think it was 2002 or 2003 that channel 4 did a teenage Big Brother, that could be done again but i doubt many will watch.
