That seems like a bit too much time-distorting when the focus is supposedly on Henry and his situation in the future. If they wanted to introduce a CS kid, I don't see why that character couldn't just appear in post-6x22 flashbacks as an actual child instead.

And in general, I personally don't think any of the announced actresses are any of the veteran mains' children grown-up. Like yes, they pulled the "weird time realm" thing with Gideon, but season 6 did not have something like "H/R/R not aged, while Henry's over a decade older" on top of that. I agree. It's hard to imagine Hook, Rumpel and Regina being the only OG characters to have not aged. I would assume everyone in Storybrooke to be frozen in time, even if they don't all directly live in Hyperion Heights. This would allow all former cast members to appear in the present. Based on how the Black fairy used the curse, perhaps the new villain trapped some characters in Hyperion Heights, while others are frozen in another realm like Hook and Cora in the Enchanted Forest during the first curse.
