Forum:200 years after the Great War...

At age 16, kids at Little Lamplight are kicked out. It's a kids only society, Lord of the Flies style, only with both sexes, and has lasted for 200 years. So this begs the question, how has there continued to be a child population at Little Lamplight? Puberty usually occurs before age 16, so are we to assume that these "kids" are fornicating and producing children regularly? WTF? This is so sick, I really have to question what the writers of Fallout 3 were thinking when they came up with Little Lamplight. Thoughts on this?


 * I believe it is assumed in game that it is more like an orphanage, where children from across the Wasteland go to live. I highly doubt the children would fornicate to keep Little Lamplight going, because if they were that desperate to keep their colony alive they wouldn't be letting people go, now would they? So, basically, the children don't have children; rather other children from across the Wastes travel there to live. Yes Man default.pngUser Avatar talk.png 09:03, November 19, 2011 (UTC)

You're not supposed to think about it too hard. It's a major screw-up on Bethesda's part. http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/0/08/Personal_Sig_Image.gif Tagaziel (call!) 10:44, November 19, 2011 (UTC)
