Do we have a Trope page that describes the constant failure of even the most competent superheroes to deal with little children? This can be either because they are far too removed from normal society, the kids have superpowers themselves are just lucky (in avoiding harm, 'accidentally' injuring the hero and slipping through his fingers seemingly without noticing it themselves) or the hero is simply emotionally incompetent (ties in with point one). Examples would be Raven from Teen Titans, Kylar from The Night Angel Trilogy or Bob Ho in The Spy Next Door.
