Although I have worked with Thematic, I love all the extras Genesis brings to the table. For me as a developer, but even more-so for my clients.

I’ve used Genesis on quite a few sites and really like it. Customizing your child theme, especially with their plugins, is nice and easy. I’ve been debating checking out Thematic since it’s free though.

No need to worry about that. Anything you do in the child theme, and I literally mean anything you do in a child theme will never have any impact on what’s going on in the parent theme. So no, that’s not a valid concern

Am debating between the Genesis and Thesis framework at the moment and finding it quite difficult to decide. I understand the concept of parent-child themes but am concerned that if I make huge customisations in the child theme, it might not work as well when the parent theme is updated… not sure if I’m being paranoid! The main customisation in the child themes involve bringing in RSS feeds from a few of my other sites to make a consolidated ‘magazine’ type site. Is this a valid concern?
