This is not the same as "baby talk" (e.g. momma me is hungwy).
Another language form is "telegraphic" speech, any early form of speaking that leaves out articles and modifiers (e.g. "car is yellow" "go see train").
Childishness in communication is subjective, but can be displayed in speech by a lack of sophisticated reasoning, in that observations may be facile and suggestions may be impractical.
Examples :
Stating that a rule is unfair simply because it disadvantages the minor child.
A pouting complaint or a refusal to go to school.
Insisting that a sibling always gets preferential treatment.
