Larger and stronger at a younger age would seem to be a good survival trait, not a bad one. It doesn't seem like the benefits of parental protection instincts for young children would outweigh the negatives of being weaker and smaller, purely on the basis of survival traits.
It is axiomatic that, as far as Homo sapiens is concerned, evolution disagrees with you. I believe the reason is you limit what survival traits are to less than what they truly are.
