Aladdin is said to be around 18, where are you getting 35? Jasmine is said to be around 18 too.
And if you’re wondering why some people become thieves while “being able bodied” that’s a very privileged pov

I am unclear, are you going based on the age of the actor? Also, do you really expect anyone to watch an hour long thing instead of just pointing to where it’s mentioned? The original Disney version is what I am going off of
It's from the original 1001 nights story.
Hmm I don’t think that’s right, it was added by a French writer later

Afaik the 1001 nights is a compilation and has posterior input from other writers.
However, as your link states, the story is originally coming from Syrian vocal heritage, and the French author acted as a transcriber.
I haven’t read these so I can’t speak to them, so unless you can please share some highlighted passages just saying something like this is kinda annoying because it’s misinformation at best and misattribution at worst
