This is a disambiguation page. On All The Tropes, Man Child, Man-Child, or Manchild could refer to:

Tropes

  • Adult Child, which redirects to One of the Kids, a grownup who often spends time with children and thus acts like a child
  • Man Child, a grownup who by nature or personality behaves like a child (including but not limited to Peter Pan syndrome)
  • Older Than They Look, which can be about someone who is grownup but doesn't look it
  • Younger Than They Look, which can be about someone who looks grownup but isn't

(As yet, we don't have a trope for what Wikipedia calls Puer aeternus, somebody who is forever young.)
