The Truth About The Little Mermaid

okay, so you know how like, you absorb media without really thinking about it sometimes?  Yes?  well, I was thinking about Disney Princesses, and wow are those people messed up!  let's take Ariel (because she bothers me the most).  please realize, i'm not trying to step on anyone's childhood, but Ariel was an ungrateful punk.  why?  because she was never satisfied.  i mean, she had plenty of sisters, animal friends, a bunch of human knick knacks from ships that sunk (eerie, much?), an entire ocean to swim in, a kingdom that she help to rule, fish and animals that can talk, a bunch of people around her that can sing well, and she didnt need anything at all.  she was provided with everything she required in order to live, but still, that wasnt enough.  wow.  selfish much?  I mean, she had all these great things and a dad who cared about her!  she dumps her whole family in order to be part of a different world because she was too ungrateful to live with what she had.  she thought the grass (or sand or whatever) was greener on the other side for some reason.  why was she not satisfied with all the people who loved her and all the freedom she was allowed and all the things that provided her with a comfortable and fun way of living?  she stressed out her dad and animal friends and literally dumped Flounder just so that she could live in our world.  what a plot twist!  she lives on the same planet as us!  *WHOA*  do you feel me?  she was just being an annoying and rebellouis teen who thought of no one but herself!  i think Ursula was trying to save her by taking away her voice.  maybe she was trying to deter Ariel from potentially ruining her life.  but no, she'd rather sacrifice her family, kingdom, and friends just so she can meet some random dude and hopefully get him to love her.  maybe.  if she's lucky.   obviously, since this is a Disney film, she turned out fine (well, she sort of cut off a lot of access to her friends), but realisitcally, I mean, really?  Dear Ariel, can you not?  anyway, i hope that this got everyone to think a bit more.  I also hope i didnt like, ruin someone's favorite movie.  now, i have to go!  until next time!
