No. I tend to try and imagine what kind of person would make honest attempts at trolling on a rock climbing forum and then I burst into laughter.

That sign looks like you made it on Paint. Climbz and the green undetailed stake kinda gives it away. and no haven't seen those signs I don't even go to public rock climbing places

I tend to wander quite a bit, regardless of whether kids and teens climb or not.

I happen to be 18 and have been climbing for a couple of years now. A good chunk of my climbing friends are the same age... So, no, I can't say I have wondered.

My son is 7 and he can climb solid 5.9's! My daughter is 8 and she just climbed a 5.10b, granted it was at the gym. My dad is 58 and outclimbs most of us! If you start kids early they become super confident in the gear which makes for fearless climbers.
