I don’t know why but while listening to this, I imagined a Sith Lord with an army of Dark Side uses that he/she adopted and raised just to spite the Jedis and show them what it looks like from the outside.
The Jedi would so be like "But that's kidnapping and explotation of children!" "But I'm just doing what you've been doing for thousands of years?" "But it's a completely different situation" "No, no, we're doing the exact same thing now." "But-but...." *lightsabers activates* *child army attacks and destroys the Jedi, rescuing the kids*
The Sith only care for power, so naturally they would look less at children for apprentices that havent proven themselves. The Jedi want to teach temperance at a young age specifically because its easier to teach a child self control when they're younger. I don't see an issue with this.
I seem to remember in legends, the children raised in the temple bullied Anakin early on, bullied him because he had not been at the temple since birth. That bullying was the first step to making him resent the Jedi. Interesting that children that should have been trained for compassion, were already seeing themselves above others.
If I remember they mainly bullied him for letting his emotions get the better of him. Also he was so naturally powerful/potent with the force that they were jealous

Ancient sith: We do not train children for our wars Sidious: And I took that personally
I think Zannah was the exception. Granted she had an excellent teacher who knew that unnecessary cruelty and abuse was not a good way to raise her as a sith. He wanted her to admire his power, crave it, and respect him. It also helps that he knew what it was like to be abused as a child
What was common practice for families that did NOT want to hand over their Force sensitive child to the Jedi? Were the Jedi like, "Here's our card. Call us if you change your mind."? Or, "Okay, sorry to bother you. We'll be on our way." And what happened to the kids that didn't make it as Padawans?
Depends I think on the era. During the time of bane the Jedi forced people into their meat grinder of a war. During episode one if the parents said no the Jedi moved on. Students that failed to be a padawan could go back to their families or find other paths in the order.
Depends on time era. Ancient time the jedi took anyone they found who was force sensitive to indoctrinate them to the lightside as they feared the dark side so much. (this was also the time where the Jedi executed anyone who didnt obey the light side and the Jedi code, these was sometimes called heretics and or fallen heretics and to make sure they didnt learn to use the dark side they killed them without remorse) by the old republic they took anyone who was force sensitive within the republic and they could do so by right and law of the republic, if someone failed the padawan trials or even the youngling trials they were not allowed to leave the order however as they feared they still had potential if they fell to the dark side an dso wanted to keep an eye on those that failed their trials and would assign them to small duties around the temple and the order so they would never become a threat. (in other words they were prisoners) in high republic and clone wars era it was pretty much the same except that Jedi or even padawans who failed their trials was allowed to leave the order and return to their normal lives. But the Jedi still had rights to take any child who was force sensitive.
With myself holding off on watching star wars the acolyte until it's fully out. I really appreciate your chanel! You seem to be the only star wars lore TH-camr that only talks star wars. Allot of people put to much of their opinion and the politics of how star wars is made In their content. I always enjoy just learning starwars and you always teach us! Keep up the good work!
Luke Skywalker himself proves the Jedi policy of not training older Force-sensitives was horseshit. Yet another way the Jedi destroyed themselves with their arrogance, their stupid dogmatism.
I think you're also overlooking something. Kids tend to be blabbermouths. A Baneite Sith would have no interest in an apprentice who would force choke or electrocute someone for taking a Mars bar and expose the Order.
Yea the sith are just believe in eugenics, the strong dominating the weak, autocracy, genocide of lesser species, etc. But hey, at least they dont train force sensitive children how to have temperance and inner peace!
I think the Jedi were wrong about taking only young children or infints for they are only were using the easy way to become more dogmatic. Though you were wrong about Zannan she truily did try to over throw Bane she first was looking for an apprentice herself first but Bane was worried she wouldn’t so he started to looking for another and things almost went to hell for the Sith
I wouldn't call them villains per say, more of antagonistically align heroes... If you think about it both the jedi and sith realistically want the same thing... Balance in the force... Just the difference in ideals and values to reach said goals are what separate which side of the force they're more likely to be attracted to... If the sith were more peaceful natured and/or the jedi were more psychopathic tendencied they would be equal or in each others shoes
@@josephalonzo1059 The sith are absolutely villains, they care only for themselves and gaining power for the sake of power alone at the cost of everything else around them. They have no love for anything or anyone but themselves.
Is this according to Disney canon? Cause in legends i know that in the old reublic the Sith academy was full of children and young adults of all ages as imperial law stated that anyone within the Sith empire was bound by law and duty to go to Korriban and the Sith academy if they were force sensitive to train and become Sith and they were sent to to the academy when they were discovered no matter how old or young they were.
In Legends there was no rule to not use kids. Bane's apprentice, Darth Zana, was a little girl when he first found her and she turned out as evil as any Sith could. Darth Plaguis was bred into existence because of genetics and Force potential from his parents. Age wasn't an issue, and species wise they leaned more towards humans than alien, all that mattered to the Sith in Legends was power. If the Master successfully trained the student to hate the Master, hate the Jedi, hate the Republic, lust after power, and found a suitable apprentice then that's all that matters.
He does mention in the video that the old Sith Empire (as seen in SWtOR) trained children to become Sith, but began moving away from that practice in the time between the game and the New Sith Wars as they preferred to select older candidates who had already experienced a trauma or hardship that could be used to fuel their hatred, but it was never a hard & fast rule
I don’t know much about Kotor but I have seen the cinematic trailers, specifically the newest one with the brother and sister Twi’leks. The Jedi master took the sister from her bother at an age where she was old enoigh to have formed a bond with him, the Sith Lord Malgus (who is just Vader without the mask) easily uses this to seduce her into the dark side. So I guess the Jedi from the prequels learned from this mistake and it’s why they choose infants, I can’t blame them honestly.
Are you talking about the Knights of The Old Republic RPG games by BioWare and Obsidian? Because that stuff isn't from those games. It's from other stuff
Not too mention that Sith children tend to be completely mentally unbalanced. Just look at Arcann and Vaylin. Vitiate himself is a prime example as he murdered his parents before the age of twelve.
I cant tell it this is Dinsey's EU/canon or this is GW EU/canon. As far from what ive known sith took you like the jedi and raised you to endure their beliefs, but their age limit for this practice was none
what really break qimir heart...seeing the trauma again since as stranded child witness what jedi did to his people...by seeing dying tenebrous on his young man arms
Even though it's not quite as simple as "baby kidnapping", it's still ABSOLUTELY messed up for the Jedi to only accept infants and toddlers. The prime argument I've heard is the Jedi taking in young children because their latent Force powers could be very dangerous without training. But then...wouldn't letting older, untrained Force-Wielders roam the galaxy without guidance be even MORE dangerous? Leave them MORE at risk of becoming Dark-Siders? I know that the Jedi Order is SUPPOSED to be flawed, but that is QUITE a lack of common sense for beings so "wise and insightful":/
I see the young force sensitive child like the X men. Once they start using their powers like moving objects or accidentally hurting people around them will naturally be afrad. Maybe to the point of hurting people. And attachments is an extension of themselves that they need to protect as well. The Jedi was doing makes sense, it both protects the child and the people. The youngling grows up in this monklike existence.
The Jedi practice of shunning attachments was ultimately why so many Jedi during the Clone Wars turned to the dark side. If they had worked to fully understand the emotions of attachments along with the psychological process that a Jedi must learn to let go of those attachments and dealing with grief, many things would have been different. Simply telling someone to rejoice at the prospect of someone close to them dying and becoming one with the force doesn't work, and in the end, it's why the chosen one fell to darkness.
This video was just trying to say that the Jedis was just as evil as the sith and that's definitely not true. Many master martial artists started training at a young age, as young as 3 years old.
Question. What was the original difference between the Jedi that formed the Sith? Both light and dark coexisted, then something happened. They separated. Somehow the differences expended the imbalance, till the Chosen One arrived. Please do a video on the differences that triggered the break.
Anakin was to old and apparently to Jaded to be trained and his attachments lead to his fall to the dark side to the point he sacrificed children for the sake of his personal attachments so there's a real reason why the rule should have stand especially in his case
When I read the Darth Bane trilogy, Zannah couldn't attack Bane while he had the parasite armor and still felt like she had something else to learn, by the 3rd Novel she was actively looking for an Apprentice of her own and planning Bane's demise, that is what I remember of the novels...
I think it just boils down to, never knowing what a being will become. You can have an idea and increase the odds but, there's never a guarantee sooo. Pick your acolyte for their potential, if they do become close to what you hoped, you failed them. 😉
It's much easier to hate an enemy when they are painted as someone who betrayed you. Growing up in Darkness, it's difficult to not wish for a taste of the light. It's easier to convince someone who's already had it, that they never deserved it.
Aside from Darth Maul, this analysis also parallels so much with Darth Vader's secret apprentice Galen Marek, better known as starkiller. Vader kidnapped the young boy after killing his Jedi father to raise Galen in the ways of the Sith, and Galen showed full potential as a Sith warrior, however his absolute loyalty to Vader was incompatible with Sith tradition of succession where the apprentice usurp and kills the master.
Wait, I read the second bane book. Bane feard his apprentice because he didn't know why his apprentice hasn't struck yet. Zanna defeats bane. But bane uses a cheap trick to take over zanna body. This was that last chapter of the second book.
The Sith doctrine knew exactly what they are talking about 👌🏾 The Jedi order created more Sith/Enemies then their actual enemies did themselves. “Ironic … 🎙” - Palpatine voice 🤣👏🏾
We can also surmise that when raising a child Sith, such an action will do another thing but affect the Master just as much as the Apprentice: both will become restricted and “chained”. And we all know that a Sith pursues freedom over all else to freely utilize whatever passions that drive them. As such, power is the only thing that matters. Power is what is used to break their chains and they become another step closer to attaining victory and freedom in the Dark Side.
The older you are the more you become susceptible to becoming evil A life of pain, suffering, resentment, sorrow, greed You need to experience life to know the evil of the world and dark thoughts that a life of pain creates
Would say Sith an Jedi had opposite beliefs regarding training... Sith seem to want people that have lived through things, seen some shit an ESPECIALLY been through some or A LOT of it too... To make them Angry, sad, vengeful, easy to manipulate with promises of "better" etc... to make POWERFUL Sith then after all this helps irreversibly corrupts them Dark. While those same sorta people deciding to STILL try to be "good" even when they for all intents an purposes SHOULD be Evil .. then reject it or learn to anyways... Would an tend to make for good an powerful Jedi. Since they are exceptionally hard to corrupt or break an if they rejected it all that time one more time wont matter as Jedi an probably would only anger them in the WRONG way an give them reasons to fight for an as Jedi..
The basic answer is who wants to raise a child ? They are way too needy and have nothing to offer until they grow up. It's better to wait until they are older and life has completely abused them , then they will have enough anger and hatred to amount to something.
but for qimir case...he was found by teneborus ...confuse and full of grief for small very young child who lost both of his parents and entire clan his family with...what teneborus would do?? leave him or take him in, this is part teneborus told him when time comes as teen to know whole truth and what happen on the planet...he will say the jedis did that ..genocide entire planet as collateral damage from a war torn between station and planet, yet they made Vernestra Rwoh a master after the incident while gave the boy all deaths around him and nothing but fear and grief without food and without shelter
This video is relatively unnecessary. I appreciate the content and the official canon reason why, so thank you for the video just the same. That said, Good 'ol Sheev sent Vader to the Jedi temple to slaughter younglings. Specifically. He could have had the 501st do it. He could have taken them all let them fight it out to determine who the best inquisitors would be. But no. He was specifically sent there to kill children. One of the most heinous and evil acts one can commit. That was when I realized the darkside was much more evil than just a point of view.
You've got some facts wrong. Darth Zannah was with the Army of the Light before Bane found her. 2 Jedi, not republic soldiers, killed her friend and she was indeed planning to kill Bane. She was about to after she returned from a mission for him when right at that moment he thought she wasn't going to and decided to search for the essence transfer technique.
Bane met and began to train Zannah at 9-10 according to 'Path of destruction' it appears that she was hesitant to overthrow Bane but she would say that she had thought about it and put it off too many times towards the end of 'Dynasty of evil' this to me personally comes across more like fear than respect or 'love' for her father figure. Zannah seems to be cold to Bane too, she only seems to react positively when he praises her but it only inspires pride in her, not love or affection for Bane.
Perhaps not "love" as we know it but love in for lack of a better word. For Zannah was already an orphan then separated from family at ruusan. Found by Bane all alone. Zannah did have some attachment to Bane as her "father" even if it isn't something she would ever admit.
understandable about Sith not taking younglings at students of dark side, attachment. Bane realized Zanna was strong but she waited too long to kill her master, Bane realized he was dying and even if Zanna attacked him it would not be fair because Bane wasn't at full power, in the end he transferred his essence into Zanna
I don’t think Darth Zanana ever saw Darth Bane as a father figure. I could be wrong though, but that’s just my interpretation after reading through the Bane trilogy. I bring that up because the second book states that Bane treated her more like an heir and was not cruel or abusive to her.
Remember, she was an orphan. After the death of her bouncer friend. She was all alone when Bane found her. She did see Bane as a father figure, especially since he wasn't cruel or abusive.
@@timothyvanhoeck233 Because the video itself states that Palpatine never directly trained Maul until he was a teenager, not when he was a young child. So no, the entire premise of the video isn't false.
I do wonder though how sith purebloods raised their kids given the force and dark side came fairly naturally to them as a species. Also shows that most sith have certain lines they won't cross both of practicality but also some moral reasons as well
tenebourus is always like to be father to his creations that makes others think its unnatural of his work...plaguies is too realgious with ruled of 2 and what he witness with teneborus is becoming close to one child ...like a father something anger plaguies a lot
Meanwhile, Tenebrous almost forced a force sensitive woman to get impregnated by Caar Demask to create Plagueis… A toddler was already too old for him.
It is easier, and more fulfilling, for a Sith to corrupt those that already have pain and suffering in their lives. If there is not enough suffering yet, they can arrange for it... over time.
What do you say is the best lightsaber form? And if you were to make a perfect lightsaber, what crystal, design, and material would make the lightsaber?
The people calling the Jedi evil for training children seem to forget that a Sith apprentice was tortured and starved to engrave them with anger and hatred.
If the point is to create a traumatized person full of rage who's willing to kill the person that leads them, raising them from childhood with that abuse would be *the* way to do it. Jeez, it's as if SW writers had happy childhoods or something.
It is sadly hilarious to realize the Sith understood that simply living in this screwed up existence is enough to warp someone to the darkness. No need to
People tend to overlook these things so they can have their cake and eat it too. I think most people just want to shoot lightning and have a red lightsaber so they'll say anything to justify the existence of the sith and their beliefs. Never mind how blatantly evil, selfish, and psychopathic they are.
Well P.S before i watch the video if you think about it and believe the in the way of the Jedi and the way Yoda ran the temple was for the Jedi to become more Powerful and Force sensitive to listen and follow the Will it was to be balanced in the ways of the Force never ruled and the best way to do that would be to make sure they don't have attachments outside of the Way of the Jedi look at Anakin allowed his emotions to rule and control him even after he became Vader and still couldnt beat Yoda let alone Obi-Wan and if you talk Council Plo-ku, Fisto and Mace Wedu are very likely candidates who could beat so thats why they dont train children with latin abilities who are of age or age 5 or higher Anakin could've lived a good happy probably life had he taken Yoda training more seriously when a Padwana himself but and meditated more but his fears ruled and controlled him which is why i do believe the Jedi have a point to train them young.
Before I watch the video, I would guess it's because they feel that you have to experience true emotional pain before you can go to the dark side and children haven't experienced that. Now let's see. Oh look I was right :D
Uhhh, darth maul? Was he not a baby when Palpatine got him? Im making this comment before the whole video, and you have a good habit of hitting my thoughts too so i should know better by now. Edit: nailed it, you would think id learn by now
The Sith didn't train children because the little bastards are too good at it. You want to be replaced by an apprentice whose voice hasn't cracked yet?
That's why the sith are more compelling to me than the Jedi. Aside from a few exceptions as brutal as the sith are, they know it's wrong to rob infants of their childhood.
The sith are the last people in this story to care about what's right and wrong. They are more than fine with killing kids with their own hands if they gain something for it.
Nothing hits harder than life. The sith realize this.
So do the Jedi… and they both exploited this fact in their own way
I don’t know why but while listening to this, I imagined a Sith Lord with an army of Dark Side uses that he/she adopted and raised just to spite the Jedis and show them what it looks like from the outside.
The Jedi would so be like "But that's kidnapping and explotation of children!" "But I'm just doing what you've been doing for thousands of years?" "But it's a completely different situation" "No, no, we're doing the exact same thing now." "But-but...." *lightsabers activates* *child army attacks and destroys the Jedi, rescuing the kids*
It's like even the Sith knew how fucked up it was.
The first Jedi was definitely a PDF file for making a rule that only infants could be added to the order and they had to call him Master
The Sith only care for power, so naturally they would look less at children for apprentices that havent proven themselves. The Jedi want to teach temperance at a young age specifically because its easier to teach a child self control when they're younger. I don't see an issue with this.
Yeah, no wonder Anakin joined the dark side of the force.
Meanwhile, Darth Vader training starkiller who was still a kid
No, it wasn't, especially when you compare Jedi training with Sith training.
the brighter your light the deeper the fall into darkness. the deeper your darkness the easier it is to see a glimmer of light.

The Darksiders are like wine the older they are the better life is
Wait, I read the second bane book. Bane feard his apprentice because he didn't know why his apprentice hasn't struck yet. Zanna defeats bane. But bane uses a cheap trick to take over zanna body. This was that last chapter of the second book.
The Sith doctrine knew exactly what they are talking about 👌🏾
The Jedi order created more Sith/Enemies then their actual enemies did themselves.
“Ironic … 🎙” - Palpatine voice 🤣👏🏾
i explain my reasoning when i steal kids, they dont accept my reasoning either
We can also surmise that when raising a child Sith, such an action will do another thing but affect the Master just as much as the Apprentice: both will become restricted and “chained”. And we all know that a Sith pursues freedom over all else to freely utilize whatever passions that drive them. As such, power is the only thing that matters. Power is what is used to break their chains and they become another step closer to attaining victory and freedom in the Dark Side.
Bane met his apprentice when she was still a child
The older you are the more you become susceptible to becoming evil
A life of pain, suffering, resentment, sorrow, greed
You need to experience life to know the evil of the world and dark thoughts that a life of pain creates
Would say Sith an Jedi had opposite beliefs regarding training... Sith seem to want people that have lived through things, seen some shit an ESPECIALLY been through some or A LOT of it too... To make them Angry, sad, vengeful, easy to manipulate with promises of "better" etc... to make POWERFUL Sith then after all this helps irreversibly corrupts them Dark.
While those same sorta people deciding to STILL try to be "good" even when they for all intents an purposes SHOULD be Evil .. then reject it or learn to anyways... Would an tend to make for good an powerful Jedi. Since they are exceptionally hard to corrupt or break an if they rejected it all that time one more time wont matter as Jedi an probably would only anger them in the WRONG way an give them reasons to fight for an as Jedi..
People are very emotional about things so we criticize the jedis methods but from a logical standpoint they were correct
The basic answer is who wants to raise a child ?
They are way too needy and have nothing to offer until they grow up.
It's better to wait until they are older and life has completely abused them , then they will have enough anger and hatred to amount to something.
but for qimir case...he was found by teneborus ...confuse and full of grief for small very young child who lost both of his parents and entire clan his family with...what teneborus would do?? leave him or take him in, this is part teneborus told him when time comes as teen to know whole truth and what happen on the planet...he will say the jedis did that ..genocide entire planet as collateral damage from a war torn between station and planet, yet they made Vernestra Rwoh a master after the incident while gave the boy all deaths around him and nothing but fear and grief without food and without shelter
This video is relatively unnecessary. I appreciate the content and the official canon reason why, so thank you for the video just the same. That said, Good 'ol Sheev sent Vader to the Jedi temple to slaughter younglings. Specifically. He could have had the 501st do it. He could have taken them all let them fight it out to determine who the best inquisitors would be. But no. He was specifically sent there to kill children. One of the most heinous and evil acts one can commit. That was when I realized the darkside was much more evil than just a point of view.
Let the Jedi train them… then the Sith turn them….
Stocks.
You've got some facts wrong. Darth Zannah was with the Army of the Light before Bane found her. 2 Jedi, not republic soldiers, killed her friend and she was indeed planning to kill Bane. She was about to after she returned from a mission for him when right at that moment he thought she wasn't going to and decided to search for the essence transfer technique.
Bane met and began to train Zannah at 9-10 according to 'Path of destruction' it appears that she was hesitant to overthrow Bane but she would say that she had thought about it and put it off too many times towards the end of 'Dynasty of evil' this to me personally comes across more like fear than respect or 'love' for her father figure. Zannah seems to be cold to Bane too, she only seems to react positively when he praises her but it only inspires pride in her, not love or affection for Bane.
Perhaps not "love" as we know it but love in for lack of a better word. For Zannah was already an orphan then separated from family at ruusan. Found by Bane all alone. Zannah did have some attachment to Bane as her "father" even if it isn't something she would ever admit.
understandable about Sith not taking younglings at students of dark side, attachment. Bane realized Zanna was strong but she waited too long to kill her master, Bane realized he was dying and even if Zanna attacked him it would not be fair because Bane wasn't at full power, in the end he transferred his essence into Zanna
I don’t think Darth Zanana ever saw Darth Bane as a father figure. I could be wrong though, but that’s just my interpretation after reading through the Bane trilogy. I bring that up because the second book states that Bane treated her more like an heir and was not cruel or abusive to her.
Remember, she was an orphan. After the death of her bouncer friend. She was all alone when Bane found her. She did see Bane as a father figure, especially since he wasn't cruel or abusive.
So the sith refused to indoctrinate children whilst they're easily lead and gullible but the jedi mostly refused anyone too old.
Interesting
They never refused to do so, many sith were in fact trained since birth or infancy. This video is just a click bait title.
Maul was a young child when he began his training, so the entire premise of this video is patently false.
@@timothyvanhoeck233 Clearly you didn't watched the video until the end.
@@LuccianoBartolini Why would I bother watching a video built on a false premise???
@@timothyvanhoeck233 Because the video itself states that Palpatine never directly trained Maul until he was a teenager, not when he was a young child.
So no, the entire premise of the video isn't false.
Lot of people in the comment section either didn't watch the video and commented or completely missed the point.
Interesting that the Sith came down on the right side of the child soldier problem...
I do wonder though how sith purebloods raised their kids given the force and dark side came fairly naturally to them as a species.
Also shows that most sith have certain lines they won't cross both of practicality but also some moral reasons as well
tenebourus is always like to be father to his creations that makes others think its unnatural of his work...plaguies is too realgious with ruled of 2 and what he witness with teneborus is becoming close to one child ...like a father something anger plaguies a lot
WTF the Sith have always been the good guys?
Meanwhile, Tenebrous almost forced a force sensitive woman to get impregnated by Caar Demask to create Plagueis… A toddler was already too old for him.
what about the new show? "star wars acolyte" the witches seemed to be training the girls at a young age??
It is easier, and more fulfilling, for a Sith to corrupt those that already have pain and suffering in their lives. If there is not enough suffering yet, they can arrange for it... over time.
What do you say is the best lightsaber form? And if you were to make a perfect lightsaber, what crystal, design, and material would make the lightsaber?
Maul: *cough* *cough*
The people calling the Jedi evil for training children seem to forget that a Sith apprentice was tortured and starved to engrave them with anger and hatred.
If the point is to create a traumatized person full of rage who's willing to kill the person that leads them, raising them from childhood with that abuse would be *the* way to do it. Jeez, it's as if SW writers had happy childhoods or something.
Clearly they never heard of power of many
I think a bit, however small, is also just because they don't want to be the Jedi?
Wasn't Maul a infant when they grabbed and trained him
It is sadly hilarious to realize the Sith understood that simply living in this screwed up existence is enough to warp someone to the darkness.
No need to
Could a Valyrian Steel Sword block a Lightsaber?
Didn't Palpatine try taking a group of infants in the clone wars?
teaching and rasing a child is in itself a very unsisth like thing to do lol
I mean…most members of the One Sith Order like Darth Talon were trained at infancy
People tend to overlook these things so they can have their cake and eat it too. I think most people just want to shoot lightning and have a red lightsaber so they'll say anything to justify the existence of the sith and their beliefs. Never mind how blatantly evil, selfish, and psychopathic they are.
What happens to Force users that are denied training by the sith
Did the first order get the idea kidnapping child soldiers from the jedi or im reaching or its not quite like that ?
Wasn't maul a child when palpatine took him?
Well P.S before i watch the video if you think about it and believe the in the way of the Jedi and the way Yoda ran the temple was for the Jedi to become more Powerful and Force sensitive to listen and follow the Will it was to be balanced in the ways of the Force never ruled and the best way to do that would be to make sure they don't have attachments outside of the Way of the Jedi look at Anakin allowed his emotions to rule and control him even after he became Vader and still couldnt beat Yoda let alone Obi-Wan and if you talk Council Plo-ku, Fisto and Mace Wedu are very likely candidates who could beat so thats why they dont train children with latin abilities who are of age or age 5 or higher Anakin could've lived a good happy probably life had he taken Yoda training more seriously when a Padwana himself but and meditated more but his fears ruled and controlled him which is why i do believe the Jedi have a point to train them young.
Can Sith take their own names or do they have to receive it from their Master?
Idk how anyone can live life in either camp. 100% being one way or the other.
Before I watch the video, I would guess it's because they feel that you have to experience true emotional pain before you can go to the dark side and children haven't experienced that.
Now let's see.
Oh look I was right :D
"Why Sith never trained young children"
Maul: "Hold my bottle"
Uhhh, darth maul? Was he not a baby when Palpatine got him? Im making this comment before the whole video, and you have a good habit of hitting my thoughts too so i should know better by now.
Edit: nailed it, you would think id learn by now
I feel like the sith pay better
In the EU novels they did.
The Sith didn't train children because the little bastards are too good at it. You want to be replaced by an apprentice whose voice hasn't cracked yet?
Bane did with his apprenctice.
🛸👽😈MAKE A VIDEO ABOUT THE LOGRA!! aka The Bohemoth!!!👿👽🛸
They don't.
The Sith Empire of Swtor does and have trained children in the past.
The Jedi are the bad guys
Couldn’t agree more
That's why the sith are more compelling to me than the Jedi. Aside from a few exceptions as brutal as the sith are, they know it's wrong to rob infants of their childhood.
The sith are the last people in this story to care about what's right and wrong.
They are more than fine with killing kids with their own hands if they gain something for it.
Didn’t darth bane train zannah as a child?
jedi: sith are the embodiment of evil. now let me take this toddler away from the family to be trained as a religious zealot who does anything we say
