22. I think it has more to do with "cute"...
Humans seem to have a natural attraction to "cute". It seems natural, since otherwise we'd be throwing screaming babies and kids out of car windows.

I remember in grade school we would volunteer to tutor the "learning disabled" class. There was a little kid that looked just like that actor that played Corky on TV - I think he had the same problem. The special-ed teacher finally had to shut down the tutoring program because the normal grade school kids only wanted to tutor Corky Jr. We actively ignored the rest of the kids.
