Manchildren

“	Jake Peralta is my best detective. He likes putting away bad guys and he loves solving puzzles. The only puzzle he hasn't solved is how to grow up.	„
	~ Terry Jeffords on Jake Peralta.

“	SpongeBob: I guess you're right, Plankton. I am just a kid. Plankton: Of course I'm right. Okay, Neptune, time to kill-. SpongeBob: And you know, I've been through a lot in the past 6 days, 5 minutes, 27½ seconds. And if I've learned anything during that time, It's that you are who you are. Plankton: That's right. Okay, Neptune... SpongeBob: And no amount of mermaid magic... or managerial promotion... or some other third thing... can make me anything more than what I really am inside: A kid. Plankton: That's great. Now, get back against the wall. SpongeBob: But that's okay! Plankton: What? What's going on? SpongeBob: Because I did what everyone said a kid couldn't do! I made it to Shell City, and I beat the Cyclops, and I rode the Hasselhoff, and I brought the crown back! Plankton: All right, we get the point... SpongeBob: So yeah, I'm a kid. And I'm also a goofball, and a wing nut. And a Knucklehead McSpazatron! Plankton: What's going on here? SpongeBob: But most of all, I'm... Plankton: Okay, settle down. SpongeBob: I'm... Plankton: Take it easy. SpongeBob: I'm...! Plankton: What the scallop?! SpongeBob: I'M A GOOFY GOOBER! (Rock!)	„

Manchildren are adults who act immature. Despite the title, the character does not always have to be male to apply for this category, as its counterparts are womanchildren and adultchildren. They can never be PG or NPG as they are too immature and childish for it.

Note: Kids, toddlers and babies (e.g. Vanellope von Schweetz, Din Grogu, Wonder Red and Jack-Jack Parr) do not count, as a child, toddler or baby acting immature is only natural, especially because of their limited moral agency.
