Can someone explain to me why there are no children in this game?

Well the sword hanging off my waist would cut all the children as I run by because there are also no weapon sheaths.

Because Tamriel souls are smart.

I played a different game with small child like chars,and all i heard in chat was pedo talk. It put me off playing the game.

Wood elves ate the kids.

There are children in this game, they're all playing on consoles and spamming crap in local chat.

You let cannibals wander the city streets with no restrictions, what do you expect?

I don't see any starving wood elves in the cities...

Many reasons, Knahaten Flu , Bosmer and vampires eating habits etc..
I want kids with Meridia but that doesn't work either ...

Psychopaths are the ones that would support killing children. Psychopath do not comprehend right and wrong as moral views.
Sociopaths are kind of crooked, but comprehend most basic sentiments of right and wrong. A sociopath might lie to you about knowing how to do a 4-person dungeon they never did in order to trick you into letting them into a party, but do not tend to be violent.
Different gradients on the scale of mental illness.

I am a sociopath according to most testing scales. My scores are not high enough to count as full-blown psychopathy, and the tests clearly distinguish between the personality types -- a sociopath is unable to empathize with the emotions of others, but knows right from wrong in a rational manner.

I see what you are doing. You are just saying you are a sociopath to trick us into thinking you are a sociopath. Wait...

ZOS would not be able to ban them fast enough for my taste. For all the technical reasons to not include children, the worst of which would be the gigabyte of voice, model, and texture material patched every week, this is the best reason to not have children in the game.

Both of those sentiments are terrible. Just plain awful and all of those people should be flogged.

The PvC crowd as I call them. Player versus Children. Fallout 3 had a lot of those... ilk. They try to explain it as adding some sort of new moral dimension to the gameplay, but, yeah, no. I often wonder if there's much overlap with the gank squad.

Didn't know about the PvPets folks. I did suddenly notice at some point you can't attack cats and dogs, but went on my merry way. I must be more normal than I realize.

I think you can kill the little guars? That should feed their need.

If you made them immortal, then sociopaths would complain about not being able to kill them.

Then let them complain. Besides, they murder NPCs at will as it is, with little to nothing in the way of consequences.

Short and simple answer:

There are lunatics out there that think having children in this game will result in people attacking, killing, etc. children in the real world if someone plays this game.
