Ok, this is something I have always wondered and have never figured out so thoughts please...

Peter Pan...he left home when he was a baby. He went to Neverland where people don't grow up or age...how is it that when Peter meets Wendy and the actual story takes place Peter is about 12?

- perhaps it's because he makes frequent trips back to the "real world" so while he is there he ages as usual.
- another more sound theory is that neverland doesn't keep you from aging, it's keeps you from "growing up" so pan is not grown up at 12 and thus once he has reached that age he stays there. They also never really make mention of his actual age, only that he is child like in his personality and features. He could for all we know be over 40, but neverland keeps him young at heart and yound in his body.

~one of my favorite books, can you tell~

interesting...i thought of the not being "grown up" theory and that does make sense..

but if he is like 40 thats really weird because wendy was most def a young girl...
