In the era of TNG, Worf's son Alexander, Molly O'Brien, and Naomi Wildman seemed to grow older super fast in their early years and then grow older at more normal rates later.

But the aging of those characters doesn't have to be examples of SORAS.  Soap Opera Rapid Aging Syndrome is never commented on by the characters or explained in any way, as the writers like to pretend nothing happened.
