Guys!!!
Found this...
Don't know if old news, but I think is interesting at least...
Looks like the Starchild... A LOT.
The pic was taken in the Docks Holding Area of the Citadel.
Seems bad news for IT (I'm a full IT Supporter btw)

Note the text reads; "Last seen on Earth." As in no confirmation of death. Meaning more than likely this gives an indication that the kid when we first see him in the first minute of gameplay was real. After that, he disappears. Though this DOES settle the issue of whether the child was ever real or not. Apparently the Reapers are lazy enough that they chose a real kid for the template.
I've always figured the kid was real the first time we see him, mostly because I've known about that picture since like the day the game came out. I figure he probably wasnt real when we see him in the vent though, because even if he was real when you see him run into that room, I dont see how anything could survive the explosion the Reaper laser caused in that room.
Oh easily. Though the other fellow made a good point, the picture itself could just be a hallucination, trying to give more legitimacy to the kid's existence in Shep's mind. After all, if they can make him hallucinate an entire child, I doubt a picture frame is a paticularly tall order.
But yeah, there is no way in hell the kid is real after the first time you see him. He scales a sheer, polished metal wall, with little to no handholds like Speedy Gonzales on coke, something even the Husks were having difficulty doing, runs THROUGH a locked door, the red light never changing, when every oher time we see a door opened, the door light turns green, indicating it is unlocked, AND THEN survives a direct hit on the beam FROM A SOVEREIGN class capital ship, somehow, is NOT found and eaten by Husks, hides in a vent that had no paticular reason to be open, which by the way has it's own unique texture of a warning sign that just looks weird and is seen NOWHERE else, at all, then he is not even referenced OR NOTICED at all by Anderson, acts dramatically out of character for a 9 year old boy watching his planet burn, using a strange phrase that seems designed more to chip at Shepard's resolve than anything else, before disappearing in a flash with NO sound, not even making a noise as he is just there one minute and gone the next, and THEN somehow getting through a literal warzone that even two highly trained commandos and N7 graduates were having difficulty with while ARMED, both of whom are by the way, athletic, full grown men, loading onto a shuttle where everyone seems to be completely oblivious to his presence, before the shuttle is blown to pieces. Appropriately enough, by a Reaper.
How anyone can think that kid is real is beyond me.
EDIT: also, has it occured to no one else that if this were the case and the kid were real the whole time, even his death, that Shepard would either have the option or maybe a quest or a cutscene to basically go "Hey lady, I saw your son die in a shuttle crash"? Especially the way he's obsessing about the kid?
