Kind of based on 4

What characters do you think are never written well in fanfiction?

Children.

Tomboys and more feminine men.

I'd also say that while I don't think it is never written well, it is really hard to get the tone right in things set in the more distant past or past-like settings. A lot of fics in these fandoms just feel too modern.

Villains are also hard to get right. And characters getting redeemed.

It's rare to see children written well. Writers mess up basic developmental stages, which I'll admit can be tricky unless you research it. But irritating babytalk dialogue, or the reverse where an 8 year old who's supposed to be a regular kid ends up talking like Jeeves.

Even many professional can't write children well so I guess I can't expect fanfic writers to but damn. Just google some milestones or something!
