Jared is 15, Henry is 12-13. There's not that much difference (althouigh i will concede that at that particular age, 1-2 years can make a huge difference). All it would take is one more good time gap to catch Henry up. There's no reason that Jared can not continue to portray Henry.

And depending on how they manage the storyline for the Camelot search and dealing with Emma, they could easily build in some short jumps between episodes to allow the group to actually stop and think about the next steps. This quest could be quite massive in terms of preparation, and be more like a short period of action followed by a short period of regrouping. Besides, they probably need a little time to get Rumple recovered, that's not going to be an overnight occurance.

Point being, Jared's not going anywhere, and I really don't want him to.
