Although Prahlāda is only five years old, even at this young age he has given up his affectionate relationship with his father and mother. Therefore, he is certainly untrustworthy. Indeed, it is not at all believable that he will behave well toward Viṣṇu.
Gauḍīya Ācāryas
Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura Gauḍīya
Translation
Although Prahlāda is only five years old, being unfit, he has given up the affection of his father and mother, difficult to reject. Will he put his faith in Viṣṇu? Viṣṇu should not be believed. How could a person who is intelligent put faith in him?
