I heard one recently, the preacher asked the scared little girl on stage why she wanted to be baptized.

"Well, mama and daddy want me to and everybody else is doing it"

Truth be told, even the idea of being saved is nonsense for a kid. If they don't understand what they're doing then what's the point?

I think most Christians think that kids get a free pass, but I don't think that's in the Bible.

Is baptism required to go to Heaven? I'm pretty sure you just have to be saved.

What do you think about young kids getting baptized?

It's always bothered me. The kids have no clue what it means or what they're doing, and it's always a bunch of adults pressuring the kids into doing it. So you have these kids on stage, crying and nervous, and the adults pretend like it's because they're so happy or whatever. But it's really the kids just being scared, and the people that are supposed to protect them are the bullies.

I think baptism should be for 18+.
