I agree with Perrault's and the Grimm's version of LRRH. I'm not necessarily happy with the outcome, but I do agree with it. LRRH is never given an age, but as the story is written it sounds as though she isn't older than 15. Girls are very naive and gullible. There is never any threat of the wolf until he eats the grandmother. As LRRH approaches the wolf the first time there is no danger and she doesn't feel as though she's in any danger. Therefore, her being naive caused her downfall.
