Dungeons & Dragons

[Silentone]

Just curious does anyone play D&D and if so did you play it when you were a kid. I am asking because I used to play AD&D 2nd edition...i know its changed 100x since i stoped playing and wanted to know if it is more user friendly now. I have 2 x 10 year old kids that i wanted to intruduce to the game sort of story time/play with them, is it worth buying new edition and content or should i just stick to my old stuff? does the new stuff have more eye candy so they dont get bored? any input would be great thanks.
