Children have a bit of a strange understanding as regards sexual relationships between adults. If you don't know about the intricacies of all that kind of stuff, it just seems like the husband-wife relationship is between two people who love each other a lot. Never mind what ''kind'' of love it is. Obviously, since we're talking about little kids here, the effect is usually sweet and endearing rather than creepy.

* An ''[[Animorphs]]'' story involves [[Kissing Cousins|Rachel and Jake]] falling in love with each other, but acknowledging that it probably can't work out with any sort of permanence. Rachel invokes this trope in her narration. "When you're seven, people think it's cute when you say you want to marry your cousin. When you're seventeen, they call you a redneck."
