Re: Based on #1

It isn't even them being super good. It is how they always sound and act way more mature than they should be. Kids can be insightful sometimes but not like how they are portrayed in fanfic.

That's Victorian too. You'd have kids as mouthpieces for the morality of the story because they were considered "pure" in a way that adults weren't.

Re: Based on #1

I really don't think fanfic writers are mirroring Victorian literature so much as they just don't know how kids act. So they just make tiny adults (or teens).

Re: Based on #1

No, I mean that that type of child has permeated literature (and movies and other media) so that it a bit of a trope now. Lots of non-Victorian media calls back to that kind of character so it's not surprising to see it now. It's kind of cultural.

Re: Based on #1

Yeah, I think the thing you're talking about does exist, but I think there's also a lot of fanfic that just writes kids shittily.

Re: Based on #1

[(Anonymous)]

I didn't say it was the only reason but I also don't think that you can conclude it's just people not having been around kids. There are other factors.

Re: Based on #1

That, or they sound/act WAY too young.
