Timmy should grow up. At least that way he won't be Singh's charge anymore. At least not physically in any case. If he happens to grow up he can actively keep himself from being shoved into barrels of toxic waste.

Oh Timmy, stay a child -- I so wish I could have! Adulthood is overrated...

agreed! i wish i was a kid again.

Finally someone who agrees with me! I wish I could have stopped growing at eight...that's the perfect age to me. Wouldn't it be nice if Timmy ended up that age? It was what he looked and acted like at the start of the EI Reports (yes, I remember when they started!). I still find life the most fun when I feel like a kid...why does everyone think adulthood is such a good thing? It's a terrible bother, at least in my view...

It's not that it's best but it's less harmful. If you stay a kid you'll eventually see your friends grow up, move on and you are still stuck there, undeveloped. You won't be able to live your live far than what the norms say. It would not be healthy for him to stay as a kid because as a human (even if he doesn't exist IRL) being he has the ability to develop. If he can't develop physically he'll develop emotionally and being small and unable to love will create a bigger trauma than growinig up does. Why? Because you eventually get used to growing up, but to NOT grow up is desperating. Most of us spend our childhood wishing we hasd X age or Y age older than our age so that when we get there we don't want to be that age anymore. For Timmy's mental health [to not make him MORE TWISTED THAN HOW HE IS ALREADY] I think the healthiest choice is adulthood, he'll get used to it, eventually.

Ah...so I'm not normal. You see, I never wanted to be older than I was. I would have liked grown-up privileges (playing with make-up, eating more candy than was good for me, staying up late) but I had no real desire to be any older, physically or emotionally, than I was at the time. As I grew older I actually was afraid of growing up, and rejected adulthood for quite a long time...I played with dolls until my early teens, tried to dress childishly, and would take any chance offered to behave like a child, such as the presence of pets or younger kids (this was seen by adults as "understanding them" and got me a lot of dog-sitting jobs and a few babysitting ones). Or of course there was my favourite day of the year, December 1st, time to play in all the tinsel while erecting the tree... I'll admit this was bad for my emotional development. I was quite solitary and preferred the company of either adults or younger kids. I remember being horrified when two girls my age were discovered to be working as "ladies of the night" as an adjunct to their summer job. Basically, I was what Timmy will be if he grows up -- a child in an adult's body. Let me tell you, it's not pleasant. It wasn't until last year, at the age of seventeen, that I got the courage to make a phone call or go shopping by myself!

(And because you're probably wondering this by this point -- no, I am/was not retarded. My IQ's slightly above average! Overprotected, coddled, and perhaps borderline autistic, but not retarded...even though that was the insult that was often thrown at me. Did you bother to think what other people are going to call grown-up-kid Timmy?!?)

heart GROW UP TIMMY! GROW UP!! 4laugh
This way he may actually stand a CHANCE with kissing the Doc someday. stare

If there was a new character added to the EI on a semi-permanent basis, I think it would be better that Timmy stay a child.

Otherwise, I'm curious how his character will change with a forced physical change.

Timmy .... we ALL grow up on the OUTSIDE eventually, some more faster than others smile ... but it is a natural occurence to do so ... and you'd have an advantage .... ALOT of adults are just big kids in an adult body ANYWAYS smile . I know that there will ALWAYS be an "inner child" full of curiousity and wonder inside ME, and I might be an adult, but I STILL like being here with my friends of ALL ages. Time to grow Timmy ... we're with you smile . Alot of us have already been through it, we've already been there, and for some of us it WAS very hard, but it will be OK smile . You will just be able to get through it much quicker than we did, and you will still be YOU biggrin !!!!!

Timmy Should be like Peter pan and stay a little boy forever! ^-^ Think About it!.... you can always use that cute face to get what you want cuz your young ^^

[FallingAngelWithinGaara]

Yeah! Think about the case of Claudia from the book and movie, Interview with a Vampire by Anne Rice. She turned out to be a miniture nut job. I mean she used her body to get blood, but that's not all she wanted.

And Valentina from Laurell K. Hamiltion's books. She's a grown woman stuck in the body of a five year old. She's truely f'ed up.
