no cartoons are for all ages to enjoy even though it does seem childish to some people.
You are never to old to watch cartoons. If people are nagging you then they obviously don't know what true TV is.
Absolutely not! There are even perfectly normal adults that watch nothing but cartoons. People continue to watch cartoons into adulthood because they are familiar television shows. People usually watch cartoons all throughout childhood, so naturally they cling to the familiar and beloved pastime.

Because some people are ignorant and think all cartoons,anime, and animation are just for children, not knowing animation started as an entertainment form for all audiences in movie theaters, and became concidered children's programing in the 1950's when networks aired them on Saturday mornings.
because older people are jelous and have no time to watch carttons with their children, and think that children watch cartoons because have a lot of time and to keep them quiet and not doing anything...but some adults think that cartoons are stupid, and only kids watch them because kids are not that "smart"as adults, but i disagree with that because not all of the cartoons are stupid..and besides, everyone watches cartoons,nomater what age the person is..if you ask someone "do you watch cartoons" and they make a face like "what the heck?" and answer you"no,i don't whacth cartoons" because they try to be mature - trust me, they lie...everyone watches cartoons and everyone likes them as well...
