I was just noticing, I havent seen anything but human children in the game, Where are the baby Lalafels? The baby Roegadyn?
I got to thinking how cute/creepy babies would look from some of these races.

i miss them!
star onion brigade ftw. children in FFXIV or riot.
They are in the game, but hidden behind the rooms where it's written "No Entry", it's too dangerous for them to be outside with all the monsters and the crazy adventurers !
New Gridania does have a playground, behind the Woodworking guild, but they'd probably be in the "residential" area that we can't go into behind the Lancers guild. No idea where they'd be in Limsa or Ul'dah. Probably drowned in Lim, and kidnapped and sold as slaves in Ul'dah
The reason there are currently only hyur and elezen children in the game is probably because ARR reused a lot of assets from FFXIV version 1.0, and that version specifically had hyur and elezen children in cutscenes for the parts of the storyline (particularly the Gridanian storyline and parts of the Ul'dah story). As 1.0 was notoriously unfinished when it was released, the original development team probably just never got around to making character models of children of other races.
However, I remember that the current development team did confirm at the Fanfest that children of other races do in fact exist, and that future updates will be adding new character models of these children into the game.
It should be noted that there are several instances already in both version 1.0 and ARR where lalafell children are actually shown though - they just have 'adult' lalafell bodies (the only way they're even known they actually are kids is their nameplates identify them as such), meaning that lalafell do not seem to show any outward signs of aging, even less than their tarautaru cousins in FFXI did:
Plus, there have been several scenes recently in ARR where babies in the arms of their mothers have been seen as well (I'll have to dig the screenshots for these particular scenes out though so it might take a bit before I can show them here) - one was during the patch 2.3 main scenario, and another was during one of the recent Postmoogle quests. So yeah, little kids of all races definitely do exist in Eorzea!when Minfilia explains about the cycle of life at the Rising Stones

if your a boy.
You helped calm a baby's crying during Christmas.
The only ones I've ever seen have been either hyur or elezen, but I remember them saying in the fanfest stream that there are kids around, and there may be more child npc's and cutscenes with them added into the game eventually.

I'd really like to see child models of the other races as well. It's super weird and creepy when they talk to a full grown lalafell as if its a child character.
