Anyone think it could be a case of vegeta and tarble? They age very differently. Am I the only one who thinks tarble looks like a teen/kid?

Officially, Trunks and Goten were born without tails. They were never supposed to have tails, either. Toriyama completely forgot Saiyans have tails and never designed them with tails. Lol. Later Toriyama "fixed" it by saying officially that tails are recessive and Goten and Trunks were born without them. Also, Vegeta is physically 12 years older than Goku...I never realized that.

I'd think it has more to do with Goten and Trunks having eachother for friends. They can be little boys and fool around and rough house with eachother. Fighting eachother is fun. Along with the rivalry, always trying to playfully one up the other one. Poor Gohan didn't have any of that. He was being yelled at to train, and in his free time stuck at home being made to study. He never got to be a kid, and fighting was never a "fun" thing for him to do. No idea when DBS takes place. It could be a year after, maybe more. Need to wait for more information. Poor Gohan. All he ever really learned how to do when he young was DOOOOOOOODGE We don't actually know that her ever learned that quite yet. He just keeps getting informed of his shortcomings in the agile avoidance department.

Yeah, I just saw that interview where he said that. That's a cop out. I don't care if he said it, he simply forgot and said that to cover his own tail (pun very much intended)

Oh yeah, he definitely said it to cover his mistake. But, it's been adopted as the official explanation by everyone involved with the franchise.
Just imagine, mistakes like this are just going to happen more and more as Toriyama makes new DB stuff. It's like midi-chlorians and that crap. George freakin' Lucas...

But, Goten and Trunks were born without tails and Gohan was. That would make you think the Saiyan genes were more dominant in Gohan. It's never stated that they never had tails, we just never saw them. Trunks, Goten, and Gohan were all 1/2 Saiyans so they ALL should've been born with tails. Most people just think they were cut off at birth or sometime when they were young which is plausible enough to me. Makes sense since everyone knew what harm the tails could bring. Now Bulla and Pan is another story, who knows what happens when you're only 1/4 Saiyan?Bulla is actually 1/2 Saiyan, she's the daughter of Vegeta and Bulma. and we already seen before female saiyans with tails, so she needed to have one too.

Oh yeah, my bad, always forget that The official explanation is bull imo and I'll always believe Trunks, Goten, and Bulla were circumcised (Saiyan style)

prodigy1367 true, but even so in the HTC there is more gravity. And that's what makes pple age faster doesn't it? It's how vegeta after training 400x gravity, after the frieza saga, looked slightly older in the android saga

Gravity doesn't "cause" aging. A lot of scientists believe telomeres are partly to blame for that, right now. I'd attribute changes in Vegeta's design more to a change in style and different art teams than anything else.

Guys we need to stay on topic.. DBS and goten and trunks age can be discussed in the other movies and tv shows section, or whatever its called.

Goten and Trunks are sort of relevant, because if they have the same look in DBS, that means the chances of them getting SH Figuarts should increase! But still no word on them.

I know this is going back off topic, but just for a second, who the f is Bulla? I searched the wiki for it and came up with Bulma, which isn't correct. I thought the name of their daughter was Bra? Edit: Nevermind, another translation oddity, and autocorrect changed it to a search for Bulma.
