Why not just make Steven 6 years old if he's going to act 6?

Because then this show would be on disney jr. where it belongs.

that's how his aging actually works though

why not make pre-teen characters actual adults if they're going to be in adult situations?

Kid characters in action/drama are fun as long as they don't act like kids. Kid characters in drama/action that act like kids are annoying and stupid (ie. Steven).

Kid characters that act their age are only good in comedy.

>>93068969
Because you want to have them be relatable to the audience in a semi-flattering way while also making the characters be able to handle the fantastic situations they are put into. Acting with Wisdom and Maturity is a virtue and sign of exceptionalism. Acting foolishly and Immaturly is aggravating and a singe of weakness.

Why are you people so obsessed with this?
Steven was about 11 to 12 at the start of the show.
His body is stuck at 8 because of his weird alien powers.
Case closed.

>>93071168
Yes, and his mental age seems to be 6. Did you read the OP?

>>93071257
I just said his body and mind are stuck at 8 thanks to him being half Alien.

Nope. What you actually said was, and I quote:

> His body is stuck at 8 because of his weird alien powers.

Someone begs to differ

Congratulations, you found the one exception to the rule. Totally disproves the general statement.

>>93071168
So that means his mind can't mature and he has to act 2 years younger than than the age he is stuck at, and 4 years younger than his actual age?
