I recently took up D&D myself as well, with some of the kids at work (I work with autistic kids and youth). Been so long, but I still love it, I like being the dungeon master and setting them up all the time. We use the 3rd edition, as it's the one I'm familiar with, and it has somewhat deeper mechanics that I enjoy. Needless to say; the kids are having a blast!

You should give Pathfinder a try. It is based on D&D 3.5, but a bit modernized. And the ruleset itself is available free online. Haven't tried second edition so far. Kingmaker is based on the Pathfinder rules, Owlcat games collaborates on the game with Paizo.

IMO, for a person who likes 3rd edition, the best thing about Pathfinder is just being aware of it's existence.  There are a ton of adventures written for Pathfinder, so if a person likes 3rd edition rules, then they can adapt a Pathfinder adventure pretty easily to their game.

I am of the opinion that all of the D&D editions have problems in their rules.  Currently I am going back and developing a new rules system based on 1st and 2nd edition rules.  This is mostly because I really like the adventures from 1st edition and basic D&D (0 edition).  This was actually before my time, but I just think their adventures are the best.  To me the top adventures are really what make D&D shine.
