about the right guy.Pretend you’re

someone you’re not.Wishing makes life

happen.

about who you are.Lying is fine - the

truth might frighten.Being nearly killed

has no consequences.

change him.When you love, it’ll

all be alright.Forgiveness comes

after a huge present.

The Disney Psychology

These messages are psychologically damaging.

These messages impact us throughout our lives.

Disney is not an exception to bad influences.

Say no to the Disney Model

Children shouldn’t model themselves after Disney characters.

Films and images are inseparable from reality.

Disney messages create a sense of entitlement.

Aspects of adulthood stem from these messages.

Conclusion

When paired with the happy, dancing, singing and bright colors of a Disney movie, these messages are toxic.

They become part of our children’s thought process and core personality.
