I was the one who raised the point that the Jedi Council should have treated Anakin as a regular Jedi recruit, making him a youngling instead of a padawan so that he spent the next six years building those bonds and that feeling of belonging and earned his promotion to padawan, but guess what? That was shot down too.
Yeah, because Anakin would have been like 6 years older than the other younglings and unable to form those bonds anyway. They wouldnt have been his peers.
