Breaking immersion

Am I the only person who has a problem with AJ's voice? He doesn't sound or talk like a 6 year old.

I understand that he was born and raised post apocalypse, but his voice, tone and way of speaking do not make me hear a child at all. I'm not sure if it's the dialog, or the portrayal itself, but something just isn't clicking for me.

I just keep thinking back to S1 Clem and how Melissa Hutchinson really made me believe she was 8 (9 by the end.) Idk...

    Would you rather have AJ be voiced by an actual 6 year-old lol xd?

    I thought he sound fine. The VA did an awesome job. Also he had to grow up fast because of the circumstances. Even Clem says he act more like an adult than a kid. His tone and delivery were on point.

    Then just think of him as 9 or 8

    Because you're used to 6 yr old kids in our world. He has never known a time without walkers and psychos. He hasn't had the luxury of being a whiny little kid like the kids of our world you think of when you think of little kids.
