"I am looking for the quote regarding slave children being raised as free until they become a certian age."
Hello,
I believe this quote will answer your question. Also, from the main Cave page, there is a link entitled Children where I have posted every reference from the series where the word is shown.

Gorean culture tends to view the body, its development, its appetites and needs, with congeniality. We do not grow excited about the growth of trees,
and Goreans do not grow excited about the growth of people. In some respects the Goreans are, perhaps, cruel. Yet they have never seen fit, through lies,
to inflict suffering on children. They seem generally to me to be fond of children. Perhaps that is why they seldom hurt them. Even slave children,
incidentally, are seldom abused or treated poorly, and are given much freedom, until they reach their young adulthood. It is then, of course, that
they are taught that they are slaves. Men come, and the young male is tied and taken to the market. If the young slave is a female she may or may not
be sent to a market. Many young slave maidens are raised almost as daughters in a home. It is often a startling and frightening day for such a girl when,
one morning, she finds herself suddenly, unexpectedly, put in a collar and whipped, and made to begin to pay the price of her now-blossomed slave
beauty.
