Well, we'd really need to know the legal age in Hyrule to really know if Saria's a cradle robber. I'd like to say Saria is somewhere in the hundreds in terms of age, but there really is no proof for that. It's just what I think.
And, if Link was Adult Link and Saria were to go out, I don't see anything wrong with that. I know what you're thinking "But, if Young Link is 10, that means Adult Link is only 17! Still not legal!". Well, as I said before, we don't know what the legal age in Hyrule is, but the fact that He's called Adult Link implies that he is an adult and of the legal age.
That's a good point, especially considering it's a fantasy setting, which usually have medieval or renaissance-like customs and rules. With those customs, adulthood was recognized at a much younger age due to shorter life span, particularly among girls (who I suppose were women, by the standards of the period). It wouldn't be uncommon in say, 17th-century France, for a girl to be married to a much older man by the age of 11 or 12 (which is pretty damn creepy). :awkward: Considering these circumstances, Link and Saria as a couple wouldn't be outside the social norm.
But like I've said, there are a lot of weird things that are the social norm in Hyrule, also because it has a fantasy setting. :xd:
