May not be "minor" but the whole trope about the kid knowing more than the adults in horror movies is very tired.

Somewhat related: kids that are clearly written by someone who has never spoken to a child in their life

Even more so if it is just so the kid can get themselves into a dangerous situation, so that said men have to save them.
