It doesn't bother me much in this sort of fanfic, because I think the greatest thing about fic is the total freedom it gives everyone - even the fourteen year olds - to write whatever they want. And I have, of course, the freedom not to read it.
And I don't read stories like the above, because they are, generally speaking, easy to avoid because their nature is usually clear from the first paragraph. Even if not that, it might well have a warning that says something like, "This is my first KOH story ever, be kind," and adds that it hasn't been beta'd. Or worse, that list of people who beta'd it goes on forever - for some reason, those are the worst.
I wrote stories when I was fourteen, and they probably weren't any better. But I didn't let many people see them, either. Just as well I couldn't put them online!
