So, in this fandom, four year old kid!Dean is considered mature enough to take care of his brother and father, is expected to take the role of an adult, complete with all the responsibilities that are implied with such a task. You know, because he was “never a kid, hunters never are” etc.

But, then again, in this same fandom, 37 year old adult!Dean is considered immature and incapable of thinking for himself so much that Sam and others are constantly encouraged to exercise some “tough love” to show him the error of his ways. Dean doesn’t deserve space, he doesn’t deserve the chance to make up his own mind bc he is clearly emotionally stunted and too stupid to be trusted to make any choices on his own.

Yeah. That makes, like, perfect sense. Right?
