* Features heavily in ''{{PS238}}'', mostly from children who are WiseBeyondTheirYears such as Zodon, Victor and Tom (Murphy may or may not count. As a child, that is). USA Patriot and American Eagle also do this a lot, though much of what they're saying sounds more like rehearsed talking points than things they've come up with on their own. Most of the kids avert it, however.

* [[WhateleyUniverse Whateley Academy]] is supposed to be a high school for mutants, with most of its students indeed belonging to the right age group because mutations generally manifest during puberty. You wouldn't believe it from listening in to most of their conversations, though. (In some cases it's justified -- some of these kids ''were'' already highly educated before they arrived and/or have superhuman mental faculties --, but it's too universal a phenomenon to be explained by that alone.)

Exspecially Medli and Tetra are WiseBeyondTheirYears, but it's justified for them. Played with in ''OcarinaOfTime'' with Saria, who speaks very sophisticated from time to time as well.

** He still thinks like a kid in some ways though; in the first book, Holly says something sarcastic about lollipops as she's making her escape, and Artemis' first two thoughts are, in order, that he doesn't like lollipops, and that using the word "lollipop" is beneath the dignity of his intellect. Which, of course, leads one to the question of how he plans to patronize children himself when he grows up.
