Ah, is my memory right? This is the term for fics that have to do with the children of cannon characters? Tell me if I'm wrong. ^ ^;
Anyway...
How do you feel about it? Most I have seen have died out quick and seem a bit cliche. But, at the same time, I think it would be fun to write one.
What's your opinion? Would you read one or recommend writing one?

I've tried reading a few, and the children always seem to be exactly like their parents or the exact opposite. Like, in a Sailor Moon story, Sailor Mercury's daughter would be either a genius or a bimbo. No middle-ground.

I mostly don't read stuff based on what it's written about; more on how it's written.

I'm sure out-there, somewhere, there are good "next-gen" stories, but usually not. You could try, though. I mean, at least in the Harvest Moon genre, they are usually at least decent. Especailly in the Harvest Moon series. Though usually only in Sim genres. Anything else usually comes out like crap.

Okay, I brought this up because in the future, not the near future, but just the future in general, I am going to be playing with the idea of Next Gen characters. So, I may post a bit about them here sometime and would like to make sure I do Sue the hell out of them. I mean, since they are going to be main character, they will have powers, but...yah.
