My whole point about this issue being posted never had anything to do with romance existing in children that have not passed puberty, it was posted on the basis that romance isn't active anymore in animation. While there are quite a few shows today that do focus on kids, not all of them do.
That is my point, is the subject of romance not around in more recent toons or is it just me? I include movies, animes, and stuff like that because the whole point of the term animation means beyond just what you see on your local TV set. Far as Simba goes, he was a "kid" when he hit it off with Nala.
The same pretty much happened with Kiara and Kovu in Lion King 2. But as I said, the point was to see if romance was missing, I never EVER said I wanted it to be the focus so I would like to ask people to please stop assuming that. The subject is of romance in animation: period. Not with kids and not it being the focus.
