I'd actually disagree, predominantly due to the setting the game takes place in. Considering the styling of the world, as well as how they speak, I was under the impression the game takes place in a relatively medieval time period. During that time period, it was pretty common for people to start their combat training young... very young. IIRC, even the roman's started swordsmanship training at 7/8 years of age, so I don't really see why kids can't learn in FFXIV.
