[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, because Disney princesses so reflect reality.

THIS. Why do they do this?![/quote]

I know a guy who's pretty high up in Disney.  They do it for what they call "real estate."  There are only so many minutes in a movie, and if there's another parent, then they have to develop that relationship, wasting precious minutes.  The need to streamline it.

Also, in lots of kid's movies/books etc the parents aren't around (orphans, etc).  It's because the kids wouldn't be able to get into so much trouble if they were being supervised.  And if they did get into all that trouble, people would be screaming about Disney's horrible parents as role models.[/quote]

It's also the case that many, many, many classic fairy tales involve main characters who have lost one or both parents.  A child under proper parental supervision is not going to be able to go off and have adventures.  Disney did not invent this idea.  [/quote]
