Disney keeps killing movie mothers | NEWS.com.au
Well, I can't say that I ever spent much time thinking about how dead mothers is a recurring theme in Disney movies and TV. It's true enough, I guess.
But to then blame that for making kids not miss their real life mothers while they are at work: that's just a silly stretch.
One could also make the point that a recurring theme of american sitcoms has been the wife/mother who is secretly the one with power and common sense in the household. (Think about it, if you never have before.) Has this made generations of kids resent their father for being stupid?
