>>88988628note that Steven never went to school, and barely interacts with children his own age (before Connie came along, he only had Peedee, and that kid is too busy with work to hang-out), most of his friends at the start of the show were all much older than him, and all treated him like a little kid (not to mention he looks like a little kid, since it is revealed he does not age like a regular human would)
