Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Good point on both. I've never experienced either myself, but I just kind of assumed they were still done somewhere.
Both existed when I was a kid (in Canada)
talent shows for sure real.
Take your kid to work seems to have decreased as people realized it really only (safely) works out for office jobs, and trying to entertain a child and get work done is no small feat.
I've never seen a career day where you bring your parent to school to talk about their jobs.
Apparently they are still done somewhere. I just don't know anyone irl that has done them. Well I haven't conducted a poll, so maybe I have and just don't know it.
