Lag Child (noun): A term used in online gaming to describe a player who benefits from lag without realizing it, and believes their success is due to their skill rather than the advantage provided by the lag. This player is often oblivious to the fact that their internet connection is causing them to have an advantage over their opponents, and may deny using it to gain an advantage. The term is often used to describe players who may not intentionally cheat but still benefit from a poor internet connection. However, it is important to note that having an advantage from lag in online gaming is still considered unfair and can ruin the experience for other players. A "lag child" is not an honorable or respectable player, and their behavior is often seen as dishonest and disrespectful to other players.
