Beyond the idea of Patty adopting a kidActually though yeah, it must have been soul crushing for the kids' parents to learn that something went wrong and their child wasn't coming back. The good parents must have been so proud and trusted that even if they didn't win, they'd at least return home. Like that's motivation enough to distrust the entire monarchy, even if they didn't have anything to do with their disappearance. Maybe if there's a prequel side story they could go into it, but it isn't necessary
So the problem is that he doesn't fit into the posh aesthetic and not that the 13 year old mistress is adopting a 1000 year old 5 year old? Like, kids play pretend all the time, but if they actually really cared about her, they'd be questioning how long they'd continue going on for and how suitors might not be into a mom (and then they'd just have to learn to get over that after learning she's serious about it). Them thinking he'd scare off suitors just means those guys weren't good enough for Patty anyways
The problem is classism, the Glim Clan is historically a group of bandits
Belguim and his mom had to flee the clan, because even his dad was a scoundrel, so the social stigma is carried with him, he literally doesn't fits in with the upper class, and is being discriminated for his looks and who he is, what he represents, lowering the reputation of the family
