I find the word, in its essence, to be demeaning because the same standard isn't applied to other things, like kids play sports, adults play sports. No one calls it kidulting when adults continue to play sports.
for me it has nothing to do with being a kid at heart, which I am but it still has nothing to do with why I am a toy collector. I can afford to buy things I have always liked.
The reason I have no issues telling people I collect toys is because I put toy collecting on the same equal footing as everything else people like doing. Some people buy sports memorabilia, some people buy collectors cards, stamps, shoes, purses, maybe vacations, concerts, whatever the case may be, kidulting is NEVER applied to those nor should it be to anything people enjoy spending their money on.
