Post History
yes, and in fact I encourage this. If it's from a child's POV, try to use a child's language, understand and perspective. Don't stress so much about what's "allowed." Do what seems to work for you...

yes, and in fact I encourage this. If it's from a child's POV, try to use a child's language, understand and perspective. Don't stress so much about what's "allowed." Do what seems to work for your story. Talk to your beta readers after it's done and polished. Get impressions from your readers before second-guessing yourself. The concept of what's "allowed" in fiction is so fungible as to be nearly useless in practice. What's allowed is what works, period. If you can make it work, the reader will allow it. (Think I'm exaggerating? Someone on this board recommended a story [told from the viewpoint of a _sentient pregnancy test._](https://writers.stackexchange.com/questions/25819/writing-a-novel-can-i-do-this-or-that/25828#25828) And it worked.)
