My point was not that the children shouldn't be killed off simply because they're children. My point, if you had read my comment correctly, was that people shouldn't WANT the kids to die because they THINK they're useless. Most children wouldn't know how to kill zombies or help bandage wounds or leave a trail if they got separated from their group unless they were TAUGHT how to do those things. Sophia and Carl clearly haven't been, so the fandom should stop bitching about how they don't 'contribute' anything to the group and should therefore be killed off. As far as I can tell, Lori + Carol haven't contributed much to the group's survival and they're ADULTS, so why should they get a pass while the fandom cheers for the kids to die?
