Thanks to Princesslullaby's recent 투표 questions, I ended up looking at my own childhood vs. each 디즈니 Princess's childhood. Some of this is just painful for me, and there is no getting around that.

My categories of adverse childhood situations (some with severe adverse conditions) are based on evaluation from the domestic violence class I took. I'll be frank. I have my own dissociation/childhood trauma.


This is an 기사 where I'm defining where I'd group categories of adverse childhood experiences, specifically for the 디즈니 Princesses. I'll also add in how each princess copes with their where-I-was-born dilemma.

Ariel and Rapunzel are right close together, because they just share the border between authoritarian parenting and authoritative parenting. Those parenting styles are similar, but are not the same.


Severe and Pervasive Childhood Oppression-- the Authoritarian Parenting Style

Cinderella, Snow White, and Ariel receive this slot.

Cinderella

신데렐라 becomes a slave in her own home. With her parents both dead, her stepmother treats her like dirt. 신데렐라 has the most "hope in her heart" 다음 to Snow White. 신데렐라 copes 의해 백일몽 and dreaming of a life free of her tormentors.

Snow White

Snow White is first shown in rags, and is mopping the stairs of the castle. I don't know how she ended up as a slave, but with both parents dead, and another evil stepmother in place... Snow is basically impoverished, with one good dress, and one that is rags. Stepmother tries multiple times to kill this girl. Snow copes 의해 노래 songs, 의해 praying, and 의해 doing her own pastimes: cleaning and baking.

Ariel

Ariel is first shown exploring a shipwreck, and saving her best friend 가자미, 넙치 from a shark. The very 다음 scene we get featuring Ariel is one in which she gets scolded 의해 the court conductor, Sebastian, and reprimanded 의해 her father for forgetting to show up at a concert. It seems like both the court conductor and Ariel's dad each are insulted and embarrassed 의해 Ariel's behavior, and so the two of them "decide between them" that Ariel requires CONSTANT SUPERVISION. This "constant supervision thing" is Sebastian's idea, first, but King Triton wholeheartedly agrees with it, and this set-up soon predominates Ariel's whole existence under the sea. Sebastian is tracking Ariel's every move. It's Sebastian who sells out Ariel 의해 divulging that she saved a human and is keeping a grotto of human detritus. Ariel copes 의해 노래 to herself, collecting what debris she can find, and generally trying to remain upbeat in a restrictive atmosphere. However, for her pains, Ariel is yelled at for her forgetfulness and curiosity; her father uses his trident and violently destroys her collection to "get through to her" that all humans are awful, and that he protects her 의해 dominating her life. I find "constant supervision" stultifying to a person. This should be applied only to someone who is around 5 years old 또는 less. Ariel is not 5 years old in the original 1989 film.
Constant supervision is not something a sixteen 년 old wants, and most psychologists will tell you, that parents who "set-up" this authoritarian parenting style are actually implementing abuse.


Less Severe, but Extremely Problematic Parenting Styles-- halfway between Authoritarian and Authoritative

Rapunzel

Rapunzel is kidnapped soon after birth because her parents used/stole an 마법에 걸린 사랑 꽃 that belonged to a witch named Gothel to prevent Rapunzel's mother from dying in childbirth. Gothel decides that in retribution for what was "stolen" from her, she will do the stealing, too. So Gothel sneaks in and steals their child away... which is similar to the original Rapoince tale where Rapoince's father steals this type of 상추, 상 추 from the witch's garden to prevent his wife from dying, and in trade, the witch steals the daughter from the parents. So, Rapunzel's folks are partly to blame for what happened to Rapunzel even in the 디즈니 version. Afterward, Punzie grows up isolated in a tower, provided with every material thing she could want from Gothel, save seeing another face that isn't Gothel's. Punzie sings, paints, plays chess, sews, cooks, makes candles, reads, and tracks the stars. Punzie dresses up her chameleon, Pascal, to get a practical joke 또는 two. These are Punzie's coping mechanisms, along with seeing "the lights" every 년 on the same day. Punzie is most curious about the lights, and THIS is the part where she feels DISSATISFIED. Otherwise, Punzie doesn't see her life as horrible, and this is rooted in her own ignorance resulting from Gothel's situational manipulation, and this is also partially because Gothel hasn't been a helicopter parent on Punzie, nor reduced Rapunzel to direct servitude. It's Pascal who attempts to leave the tower first, and Punzie scoops him up before he can get too far out the window. Rapunzel feels BORED and wonders "when will my life begin?" But is she tormented? I have seen children who were tormented individuals (as I am a nurse), and I can tell 당신 that no, Rapunzel is not 연기 like a tormented adolescent. Finally, deviating from the warped fairy-tale, 디즈니 introduces Flynn/Eugene who stumbles on Punzie's tower while running from a heist-gone-bad. And it is Rapunzel who ties Flynn up and DEMANDS that he take her to see the lights if he wants the "crown object" back. Gothel is abusive in creating an environment that preys on Rapunzel's gullibility and ignorance. But compared to someone who is under constant supervision for every choice ( which is what is going on with Ariel)--- this is not so with Rapunzel. Gothel visits Rapunzel once a week, if that. And Rapunzel doesn't get told that her priorities are wrong. Gothel has "one rule" for Rapunzel, while Triton's law on humans was 더 많이 like 5 rules disguised to deter dissent. I see Rapunzel as a victim of both her parents stupid choice to steal a plant, and as Gothel's equally stupid retaliation 옮기기 to prevent age deterioration. But when I think about Rapunzel's actual day-to-day existence, Rapunzel's day-to-day life is 더 많이 like Merida's and Jasmine's: little on the excitement part, and big on the tedium. Gothel never gives Rapunzel constant supervision. Rapunzel hides Flynn before/and while Gothel is there. Rapunzel herself is good at withholding things she doesn't want her pseudo-stepmom to know. Even the Rapunzel in the original tale hid the ladder she was making to escape the tower. The Rapunzel in Disney's tale and in the original has agency, and she makes her own choices. She is not being supervised and bullied 24/7.


Merida

Merida's mother is strict. Merida doesn't get "a 일 all of her own" until the end of the week, as it were. Most of the time Elinor is trying to groom Merida to become the 다음 퀸 of Dunbroch. Merida doesn't like this, and balks at every opportunity. Merida copes with her mother's restrictive schedule on her life, 의해 using the bleep out of her "one 일 a week personal time" to do everything from archery to climbing the firefalls. Elinor is strict, but she isn't sneakily abusive like Gothel, nor is she constantly supervising Merida's whereabouts like Triton does to Ariel through Sebastian. I don't like Elinor initially, because she's so prim and stuck-up, but she does less harm to Merida than Gothel and King Triton do to Punzie and Ariel.

Jasmine


She's confined to the palace. She is restricted 의해 location and 의해 the fact that she has to marry a prince. Jasmine's options in suitors irritate her, and she chafes at being "a prize to be won." But Jas has a better life than Rapunzel and Merida, because the sultan, her father, is never purposely sneaky nor purposely restrictive. He also does not send someone to watch 재스민 속, 재 스민 24/7, and leaves her largely to herself. 재스민 속, 재 스민 copes... 의해 having Rajah nip and bite playfully at her suitors. That's the bonus for having a tiger for a pet.


Mulan

Chinese culture was restrictive and obligated women to become wives. 뮬란 isn't confined to the house like Rapunzel is, doesn't seem to have a rigid schedule like Merida, and doesn't have a designated row of suitors pushed up in her face like Jasmine. However, 뮬란 doesn't have the freedom to be herself and to make her own choices, which is societal and which her parents are reinforcing. The good thing is that 뮬란 isn't being watched 24/7 either, which is why she could get away with cheating and painting verses on her arm as a method to try to pass the matchmaker's exam. 뮬란 mopes and sings when coping with her situation. I don't see her doing a lot else in the movie with coping, at least not until she decides to try to prove herself.


The Best Childhoods Among The 디즈니 Princesses-- halfway between Authoritative and Permissive

Aurora

The movie seems to show that Aurora hardly received a stern word from Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather. Aurora views these women as "my three nosy aunts," but doesn't seem to feel that they are undeniably restrictive, and who watch her every movement. In fact, the three 요정 send Aurora out all 의해 herself on her sixteenth birthday to collect berries. That doesn't sound like King Triton's constant supervision of Ariel, nor Rapunzel's "one limitation rule," nor Merida's strict schedule of activities, nor Jasmine's palace ennui, nor Mulan's societal expectation. Aurora has 더 많이 freedom....now that I consider it...than a lot of the princesses have had. And I did not realize this before. How far did Aurora roam in the forest during all of her childhood? She seems pretty darn familiar with her surroundings. Aurora copes with her pervasive loneliness 의해 using sly humor, 노래 to herself, and dreaming at night of her "mysterious stranger."

Belle

With the exception of her mother dying in Paris ( 또는 somewhere) during Belle's youth when she was probably 3 또는 4, Belle doesn't seem to have had any horrible experiences. Maurice, her father, moved them to "the poor provincial town" where Belle feels disgust and irritation at her neighbors because she is seen as "the oddball" for not chasing around and flirting with guys, and wanting to read instead. Belle doesn't hit adversity until Maurice gets himself 로스트 and jailed 의해 the local Beast. And then Belle offers her freedom for her father's life. Right up until this half of Belle's existence ( beast capture) she hasn't had anybody abuse her, nor restrict her, and the societal expectations in her village she willingly defies without much blow-back ( whereas in Mulan's case it brought shame). I don't see Belle being watched 24/7 의해 Maurice, and Belle only gets the 24/7 treatment when she ends up surrendering her freedom to the abusive beast. Belle copes 의해 읽기 everything in the local bookstore, and 노래 about her 가장 좋아하는 book. Belle is just lonely, like Aurora, and they both are outsiders occupying time until they eventually find the life they are seeking. Belle's childhood was not horrible in any way. It was somewhat sad, actually, because of the death of a parent, but that death did not translate into abuse from Maurice, as did happen in Cinderella's case, in Snow's case, and in Ariel's case.

Pocahontas

Pocahontas goes "wherever the wind takes her." Powhatan seems like he has not decided to restrict Pocahontas at all. Powhatan has given Poca complete freedom to speak her mind. Powhatan respects Poca enough. He is extremely gentle when asking her to assume her mantle as the 다음 leader of her people. Poca takes a while to figure out who she is, but her father doesn't stop her from finding her own path. Powhatan is not monitoring Pocahontas 24/7, reducing his daughter to a slave, 또는 demanding that she marry Kocoum right away. He doesn't want war, but he does want to see that there is safety for his daughter, his tribe, and peace for his land. He's an example of a good dad.


Tiana

Tiana wins this weird childhood countdown. Tiana has the best childhood 디즈니 has crafted in a long time. Maybe, it's the best childhood since Bambi (before Bambi's mother died). I don't ever see Tiana's parents scolding her, restricting her movements, 또는 denying her the things she loves to do (cooking). Tiana's dad is exceptional. He is so engaging, so humorous, so instantly likeable that it physically hurts me when 디즈니 yanks him out of the picture. :( The only damper on Tiana's life is the death of her dad and his dream. The Segregation of Blacks in the South of 1920s New Orleans, Louisiana is a further backdrop to Tiana's personal pain. Tiana's father dies when she is sixteen ( I'm guessing? Because Tiana looks like she is 19 in the movie 또는 something, same age as Cinderella). The plot kicks in afterward, and Tiana becomes a grieving and very angry adult. But Tia's dad and mom never mistreated her, and she has insanely good memories of her family life.



This is my deduction from seeing each princess’s situation in their movies, and watching each one cope with the situation into which they were born. Though I have experienced emotional trauma myself, I don't think each princess really had it that easy. I don’t think every princess had the worst childhood, either. Likewise, I don’t think every princess had the best childhood. Some childhoods were right 헤로인 dab in the middle and isolating, but these—in my view-- sidestepped being marked 의해 episodes of outright punishment, volatility, and slavery.

Leave thoughts below. Thanks. And until 다음 time...

To all 디즈니 princesses fans

My 투표 i created about the new 아이콘 has raised some negative feedback about the new proposed one. Mainly because I have not commented about it on the 디즈니 Princesses forum.

Therefore I am very sorry I had no idea 당신 had to voice out your idea first and the 투표 will be abandoned. I'm not sure how 당신 삭제 a 투표 but it's fair to say that the original 아이콘 has 80% so it should win.

Please any 질문 또는 concerns please 코멘트 below.

I hope I haven't 로스트 any popularity because of this.

 음악 soothes the savage beast, do 당신 agree?
Music soothes the savage beast, do you agree?
Since I had done the actors for the Beast, now it's the singer from Popera genre on who will be the perfect Beast.

1) Josh Groban

I have always been a 팬 of him and after listening to his rendition of If I Can't 사랑 Her from the musical version on Youtube. I personally felt that Josh should have been cast as the Beast!

2) Urs Buhler & Carlos Marin (Il Divo)

Just so 당신 know that Carlos Marin had previously played the Beast in the Madrid production of Disney's Beauty and the Beast, and I personally felt that his voice is 더 많이 suitable.
The 초 choice was his Swiss bandmate, Urs Buhler because he has both the looks and voice for both Prince Adam and the Beast.

3) Il Volo

The Jonas Brother version of Il Divo, they sound perfect and Prince Adam would definitely sound very operatic. Do 당신 agree?

Let The World Be Done with Me!

Here are my 3 choices, do 당신 agree?

팬 have voted for the most romantic 날짜 for 디즈니 Princesses and the results are in. There's something extraordinary about each 날짜 in its own that others don't have, but still a countdown means, there's a 가장 좋아하는 and there's a least 가장 좋아하는 among fans. So here's how they have reasoned out these dates for the following ranking:

Majority 팬 chose this with clear mind, seeing that they hardly get to interact with each other and only spend few moments together. While it was seen as sweet and little flirtatious but in lieu of others it failed...

So, pretty soon I'm going to post some stuff me and my 프렌즈 wrote awhile ago, rating different 디즈니 things. You'll start seeing them soon. In the meantime, however, let's get to know the 디즈니 Critique Team!

Sabrina- She's random, wild and crazy. She loves emojis, dinosaurs, llamas and more. She's totally unpredictable, yet is much smarter than she acts and has interesting perspective on things.

Alicia- She's the master of the selfie and her social networking game is #goals! She loves to listen to 음악 and hang out with friends.

Kayla- She is athletic and a kind, good friend. She loves...

I've been wanting to write this for a while, but I've been skeptical because there aren't so many songs 의해 them that 슈츠 the 디즈니 Princesses so keep in mind when 읽기 this that the songs are very unfitting in most cases, but I hope you'll like this 기사 anyway

Snow White: link

This song actually 슈츠 Snow White quite well especially the refrain and most especially this part "Eleonore, the fairiest of them all, so young and vurnerable"

Cinderella: link

This song is very dreamy and one lyric goes "What do 당신 dream?", that lyric totally 슈츠 Cinderella. Besides that very unfitting,...

"Well well, isn't it a coincidence that 2 princesses and 2 princes from 2 different eras meet each other. I'm not surprise at all!" said Maleficent coolly.
"Who are you?" asks Cinderella, frightened and trying to keep her voice as calmly as ever. "I'm Maleficent, the Mistress of all Evil." replied Maleficent with pride, Aurora suspects that this isn't the Maleficent that she always knew, as she can tell from the glow onto her eyes. This is an evil Maleficent!
Aurora immediately yelled "You are not Maleficent! You're the evil Maleficent!" At this point, Maleficent declares "It's true! I'm not your Maleficent anymore and I was the one who magically transported 당신 here!" She cracks into her evil laughter and vanishes.
At this point, Aurora bursts into tears and Cinderella, Prince Philip and Kit came to comfort her. Saying that the evil fairy will be perished.

"I just forgot to eat. It'll never happen again." she said simply. She went back to chopping up food.

I've never done a pictureless 기사 before but as I am too broke to buy a functional laptop, this will just have to do. It's been a while since I haven't written anything! I'm not going to include sequel outfits, nor child outfits, heck I might even leave some outfits out so enjoy this ''lazy'' 기사 :)



13. Rapunzel
I know Rapunzel's outfits are detailed and all but I'm not too impressed with her wardrobe, I don't think it is that much better in quality as it is in quantity. First off, her purple dress looks 더 많이 like a costume than anything else. As for her 담홍색, 핑크 one, it's not bad, it's cute...

Welcome to my first opinion list! I will try my best to do stuff and add my horrible sense of humor to do it. Well have fun 읽기 this.

13. Belle

Belle is so boring. All she does is read 책 all the time. She's just not that interesting to me. That's all.

12. Ariel

Okay... she's stupid. Also watching her body move, thanks to the crappy 애니메이션 is disturbing. She also wants to be part of a world where 물고기 is eaten. Since she can understand most 물고기 this is like humans wanting to be part of a world where humans are eaten. At least where it's okay. Our world humans are eaten but it's often...
