They will approach me but I can't touch them yet. My current pair is just a year and a half old. And I've had this pair for about a year. It takes a long time with emus. I had a pair a few years ago that was very tame with me. I could pet and mess with them all over like you would a dog. But other people they wouldn't come near. And had them for years. I'd say it took about 3 years for them to totally trust me. I wouldn't really call emus a tame animal. They tolerate people, but can be very dangerous when cornered or frightened. They could easily severely injure a child or even an adult if they wanted to.
