Incidentally the curse was real, but he would have believed in it even if it hadn't been. Same goes with Peter Pan: he totally bought Wendy's story without questioning it even for a second. And I mean, yes, he is eleven years old, but isn't that the age kids start questioning childish beliefs? .-. Ironically, this is exactly why Henry is the Truest Believer. No wonder it took Peter Pan, so long to find him.... most children are not that stupid, or gulliable. Would I be giving the writers too much credit by saying, this was their intention? I feel as tho Henry's beliefs and feelings come from wanting to be a Hero. Wanting to save people and see them unharmed. In "Manhattan" Henry was a bug, but many times he cared about how Rumple was doing.

Like I mentioned, the only times he told off Regina was when she was hurting others. Which I think is a noble trait. Going to lenths to stand up even to loved ones on behalf of his friends. Henry is not like other kids these days. He thinks about and cares for the safety of others.
