Fairy Tales & Addictions

I saw this message posted on Facebook on April 29:
"How do you expect kids to listen to their parents? Tarzan lives half-naked, Cinderella comes back home after midnight, Pinocchio lies all the time, Aladdin is the king of thieves, Batman drives at 320 KM/h, Sleeping Beauty is lazy, and Snow White lives with 7 guys. We shouldn’t be surprised when kids misbehave! They get it from their story books...Copy this on your wall if you laughed!"

MY Commentary on the above message:
Grace Slick said something to the effect that Fairy Tales are based on Drug Culture and I believe it.
Just think of Alice in Wonderland, Jack & the Beanstalk, Tarzan, Cinderella, Pinocchio, Aladdin, Batman, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, to name a few. Contrary to what some "religious" people believe, Harry Potter is NO "worse" than Narnia, in fact probably less militant from the Narnia previews I've seen.

Seriously, I believe that people should tell their kids that those stories (and TV & movies) are NOT real. Ditto for Santa Claus & the Easter Bunny.

Kids grow up expecting to live like they're in a Fairy Tale and then finding out they've been hoodwinked and lied to, and it probably causes undue psychological damage!

Children, especially those under five years old are very impressionable. We should make sure they know that many of the things they read, hear, see in movies and on television is a "story" that someone made up, but is not REAL, because they usually cannot distinguish fantasy from reality. Many children use Fairy Tale characters as their idols and relate to them as part of their own identity.

When they become adults, naturally they have been shocked to find that adults lied to them and that "Fairy Tales" are not real.

From an early age, they need to know that all that stuff is "just pretend", NOT reality. Is it any wonder there are so many delusional people walking around drunk & on drugs?
