[quote=Anonymous]A lot of kids movies have the young main characters having adventures or doing things that, typically, parents would never allow a child to do. If the parents were around in the film and being good parents by our societal standards, the plot couldn't really advance with the kids as main characters because the parents would always be stopping the kids from doing whatever in order to protect them. And if it's not for that reason it's to show the young main characters having to grow up and become independent outside of their parents' shadows -- coming of age type films have always been popular and having the parents around might get in the way of that.[/quote]
