So, why isn't this a thing yet?

I love these threads.

The reasons why we can't have child like characters are just plain hilarious. There are games where kids are/would be treated far worse than they would in XIV. They still were published, the companies publishing them are still going strong, and there was no media whiplash for it.

srsly. If you don't want child characters, just own up and say you don't want them. Don't try to hide behind some 'THINK OF THE CHILDRENZZ' excuse that is just plain BS in an attempt to come out a hero. lol I doubt anyone would judge you for not liking kids.
