Why both Sam and Dean where children
It always bothered me that Dean đã đưa ý kiến not once, but twice that he was not Kid. The first time I hear Dean say it to Jo on season 7 episode 4 (defending your life) it made me sad for his Mất tích youth but it also bothered me I didn’t quite understand why. Then when he đã đưa ý kiến it, again this time to Mary in season 12 episode 14 (the raid) I had the exact same feeling as before and I couldn’t understand why I had that feeling, until today. I recently đã đăng a phiếu bầu on prank wars and most of bạn agreed that it would be awesome to have them back on the show. As I was thinking back to prank wars, I also thought back to the countless amount of times that Dean did childish things: laughing at a couple kissing, eating like a 5 năm old, pudding, defying authority, losing at rock paper scissors because he likes rock, making noises when bored, prank wars (you can’t convince me that Dean didn’t start that)…..the danh sách could go on and on, but basically all of the earlier seasons is a great sum up. It is impossible for someone with that massive amount of creativity, and energy not to have ever been a kid.
It was then I understood why it bothered me. It bothered me not because I thought that he didn’t have a hard childhood hoặc because I thought he didn’t have to grow up way to fast (which bởi the way I believe he did have both a hard childhood and that he grew up way to fast). It bothered me because he was a child in every sense of the word.
Someone who is never a child hoặc allowed to be a child doesn’t know how to play how to be a kid. Countless studies have shown how technology is robbing our youth of their ability to imagine and play, because they spend thêm time behind a screen. Nobody is going outside getting dirty, running, jumping, etc. Part of it is society, part of it is safety and part of it is convenience. The bottom line is most kids don’t know how to be kids.
Dean however does, and not because Mary let him be a kid while she was alive, but because he got to be a kid growing up. He had a lot of responsibility, but he also got to have fun to be a kid to test the boundaries, to act up. He did all that he was thêm of child than the children of our current generations are. He was a child because he got to be a child, just not freely and consecutively, and yes, it’s a shame, but he did have a childhood in between hunts hoặc being in charge, he was. He had to be and for a very long time after all “childhood amnesia”, a term that defines an adults lack of ability to remember things before the age of seven, wouldn’t have let him remember things concrete with Mary just bits and pieces.
So yes, both Sam and Dean were kids and had a childhood. Sam’s being richer than that of Dean’s but they both got to be kids and that is cannon.

Meg sat on her knees, outside the police station. With her right hand she held her stomach and with her left she tried to pull herself up on the wall. She closed her eyes and focused.
“Meg!”
Meg opened her eyes and saw Sam walking in her direction. He helped her up, while Dean frowned.
“How did bạn get out?” he wanted to know.
Sam helped Meg to the couch, but she refused to lie down. She groaned from the pain.
“What is wrong with you?” Dean asked.
“Daphne attacked me” Meg đã đưa ý kiến difficult. “My stomach hurts, my hands hurt”
“Cas’ ex attacked you, why?” Sam asked surprised.
“It’s not her fault” Meg said. “Zoey manipulated her. Where’s Cas?”
Sam looked at Dean, who scratched his head.
“Please, tell me bạn know where he is” Meg đã đưa ý kiến weak.
