Moran and LeBlanc kids.


I personally think the Moran and LeBlanc children are infantilized throughout the series. No matter how much older they get, it seems like there is an attempt at keeping them "little", or stuck at the age they were at the beginning. They way in which the kids are spoken to and interacted with, always remains rather babyish, even when they reach preadolescence and there is an obvious physical growth. I feel like this is especially true with Finn and the LeBlanc's. No matter how much older he obviously gets, the show tries to keep him like a cute little five year old boy who functions almost like a toddler, all the while trying portray him as an academic genius. I feel like I am looking at children who are reaching their teenage years, but still doing and saying things that one would expect early elementary school aged children to be doing. It is just my take on it, but it gets on my nerves. Especially regarding Finn.
