Children in A Chaste Maid in Cheapside

It seems in each section of the play, children are both celebrated and portrayed as unwanted. They have both been abandoned in baskets of meat and, pre-birth, referred to as flowers. Beyond this, they are constantly either referred to as jewels or bastards--depending on whose children they are. But through this, I find it interesting that we see two teenage children from the same family, Moll and Tim, who are seen as unable to obtain, and too full of obtained desire--both are seen as jewels, however.
