One thing that caught my attention watching Dragon Ball (On ep 34-ish right now), and watching the first few episodes of Z, is that Gohan was a HUGE wuss as a child compared to Goku. The difference between the two is night and day. Kid Goku is brave and literally nothing bothers him and Kid Gohan cries about everything.
I wonder if Akira Toriyama at that time was kinda hinting at a view that newer generations of kids are spoiled. I could be wrong...

Y'all look too much into things, Gohans like 4 I think at the beginning I think, he's barely above toddler age.

This is my signature, there are many others like it, but this one is mine.
If you take 110% of what I say seriously then you're gonna have a bad time.

first few episodes of Z


Wasn't Gohan like eight years younger during that time than Kakarot was at the beginning of the first Dragon Ball cartoon?

Very different circumstances in the way they were raised.

When we first met Goku he was like ten. Gohan was fighting Saiyan conquerers and galactic tyrants when he was five.

Chi chi was coddling the hell out of him and not raising him as a fighter plus Goku is probably the worst parent ever.

Gohan was 4, Goku 12.
The were both raised differently. Gohan like a normal child, Goku almost like Tarzan.

This, pretty much. It's a *little* weird because she came from a family of fighters and learned to fight from an early age (in addition to seeking out a strong husband) but, as we saw near the end of DB, she did kinda have different expectations so it didn't entirely come out of left field.

Goku was acting the way he did from an early age and, as revealed in the first episode, was aggressive almost since birth. And Gohan was wimpier than the average kid.

Goku was aggressive because that's how all Saiyan babies are. His head injury knocked some wires loose and basically made him normal.
