And to all those saying "he was in Neverland for hundreds of years, therefore he was hundreds of years old" that logic is wrong.

People don't age when they are in Neverland. Neal was 14 when he entered it, no matter how long he spent in Neverland he was 14 when he left. So no, Neal is not hundreds of years old. But mentally he was 200. His mind did not stop aging.

And his biological age was stated; it was on the wanted poster that his year of birth was 1977, so he'd have been 22/23. I'll move over to the other thread after this, but wanted to answer this on here, since it is on this thread. Neal's birth year is made up, because Neal was really born hundreds of years ago, and in a different world. So we don't know if Neal is really 22/23, or if at some point he made up an age for himself that people would believe. He could biologically be 18 for all we know, and just has a fake birthday that makes him 22.

Also, I totally agree with all the time things Nightlily stated. You have to go by what the show tells us and shows us the timeline is, not what you assume it is because it makes the most sense to you.
