As Thomas said, authors treating them as "childlike" is just ignorance telling on itself. Are you confusing them with Kender? With Kender, those are explicitly childlike and playful and so on. Halflings are not. They're based on English country folk (or rather Tolkien's perception of them).This is a deeply self-serving attitude in this context, pious as it may sound. Also, given you think being associated with one of the most purely positive races in D&D is "humiliation", your standards are hard to understand.If you can't afford something, and you're not smart enough or good enough at making deals/negotiating to get it for free, but you don't actually have to do it (unlike, say, eating), maybe don't do it? Novel concept I'm sure. We have the internet now. I'm pretty sure if you are clear that you have no money, but would like advice, going to the right parts of the internet will get you some advice from the right people. <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="🤷‍♂️" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f937-2642.png" title="Man shrugging    :man_shrugging:" data-shortname=":man_shrugging:" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" /></blockquote>
