[40d]Blacksmith's older brother is a Child.

I'm thinking this shouldn't be possible. I saw this in my blacksmith's relationship screen.

Ok after checking it seems that he is not in the unit screen anymore. I'm thinking he was one of the two that were stolen by goblins.

Can you provide a screenshot of your blacksmith's relationships?

Ironblood didn't use an axe because he needed it. He used it to be kind. And right now he wasn't being kind.

Alternately, the child died as a child, not growing to peasanthood.

That seems most likely.

nah, he was probably child snatched, and the dwarf will never update his view of the child even to seem as a full-blooded warring dwarf fighting him in the field of battle.

"You are no longer my son"-? Really?

I wonder if that's intentional.

Yea, that effect carries over onto Dwarf Manager (dunno if it does on Dwarf Therapist) since it still records that kid as bieng alive, recently I've taken to finding the kid or baby that got kidnapped and label their profession as zzzKidnapped. The z's are to keep it separate from the rest.
