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
- Dawson Casting, which can be about a grownup actor playing a teeanger
- Really Seven Hundred Years Old, taking Older Than They Look to a fantasy or SF extreme
- 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.)
