(Found a resource from this tv trope and reading an article about a young girl who was raised by monkeys in India out in the wild.)
Hm?
Wait! Wha?! (Surprised)
(Eyes opened big and wide)
I.. I.. I.. I.. I thought.. my parents said.. a human child.. being raised by animals.. out in the wild.. was just a story.

This example is kind of shoehorned in:
"Subverted by Buffy the Vampire Slayer with the character of Anya. For years, the characters thought that her odd manerisms, literal-mindedness and tendency to say whatever she was thinking were the result of being an ex-demon adjusting to being human again after 1000 years. Then a flashback showed us that she had been like that originally."
I love Buffy but this is an example of No Social Skills and not this trope. Any objections for removal?
Link in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is technically raised by Kokiri who are human-like but are not human. Do you think this warrants a mention on this page?
Hide / Show RepliesNot really. He's raised by a civilization which is very much against the trope.
Found a Youtube Channel with political stances you want to share? Hop on over to this page and add them.Although I corrected the error, I'd like to call out whoever made it... regarding the Sluggy Freelance example. What the hell is wrong with you that you can't differentiate between centipedes and roaches?
