Details can be found at http://east.paxsite.com/. Unfortunately, Saturday badges are sold out already, and that's the day of our panel. However, our panel was lucky enough to have been chosen as one of 17 PAX East panels that will be livestreamed (and archived), so you can at least watch the panel online from home, for free.

is there an admission fee and if so, how much?

As much as I'd love to repeat my performance at the panel, we will be prepping for the arrival of our little girl. You guys break a leg or two. ;)

The GeekDad + GeekMom panel:

Raising the Next Generation of Geeks
Naga Theatre
Saturday 7:00pm - 8:00pm
Should you let your toddler play Skyrim? What's the best way to introduce your child to RPGs? How do you handle it when your kid doesn't want to play a game because he thinks he'll lose? What do you say if your daughter says she likes "Twilight" more than "Buffy?" These questions and many more will be discussed by writers for GeekDad.com, GeekMom.com, and geek parents in the audience. Come share your stories and advice for how to ensure our kids grow up to be geeks like us! Don't have kids? Show up and find out what may be in store for you if you ever do!
Panelists include: Matt Blum [Managing Editor, GeekDad.com], Corrina Lawson [Senior Editor, GeekMom.com], Rebecca Angel [Core Contributor, GeekMom.com], Doug Cornelius [Contributor, GeekDad.com], Curtis Silver [Core Contributor, GeekDad.com], Nicole Wakelin [Core Contributor, GeekMom.com]
