[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On a related note, why are Disney movies always missing the mother? Beauty and the Beast (no mom), The Little Mermaid (no mom), Aladdin (no mom), Cinderella (evil step-mom), Snow White (evil step-mom). I suppose a few of them have moms - Peter Pan (gratuitous parents), Sleeping Beauty (although Aurora is raised by "aunts"), The Lion King (real parents, but of course, they were lions). What's the deal with that?[/quote] Not just disney, many many fairy tales have this particular theme. My DC reads and watches many fairy tales, many have no or evil mothers/stepmothers and distant/unavailable fathers, leaving the kid(s) on their own. My view is that its the dependence/independence struggle kids must figure out and right now DC is doing just that! :roll: [/quote]
