Yeah. Girl and Boy, are not just about masc/fem gender, they are also a bit of a cute infantilization.

"Person", carries an unsexy amount of respect.

We're not culturally at a stage where "Kid" can be used without mental connections to the real violence, I think.

My bet for the best available workaround, would probably be to just let the word stand on its own:

"Have you been good?"

"You're so good for me ❤️"

"Oh my god how good can you be, so cute 🥰"
