My guess is Disney will do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to undermine the notion that they should all be aborted.

Turn off the damned TV and create a fantasy world She is a lesbian who believes she is in a real marriage. She already is living in a fantasy world.

She doesn’t realize the guilty rage that will be unleashed by such a release.

I grew up in NY state (NYC is a different country). Down’s kids were very rare. Heard of, but very rarely seen.
Then I moved to GA. Down’s kids seem everywhere. A regular part of life.
I wondered why.
Then the obvious tragedy hit me.
A whole lotta people would react very badly to a “Disney Down’s Princess” out of raging guilt.

Just sayin’.

So since these mothers are “lesbian” next they will want “lesbian” Disney princesses.

These demands will never end.

Walt Disney suffered a horrible tragedy when a badly installed hot water heater caused carbon monoxide poisoning to his mother in a house Walt has bought for her to live in.

It is a popular belief as to why you see so many stories with deceased mothers specifically or parents generally.

This begs for a skit on SNL.

Pretty sure “Mulan” would count alongside the Incredibles; Mulan’s father was a retired war hero injured presumably in an earlier battle.

“I’d love to see a Disney movie about a child who is rescued from abortion and grows up to be a valuable and productive member of society. “

You realize you are probably talking about a child with Trisomy 21 don’t you?

I know a few people with Trisomy 21 ...

They have each, individually, done more good for the world than Barack Hussein Soetoro Odinga Soebarka Choomgang 0bama and his troll-like 'wife' have combined.

I think the point there was that a story about a child saved from an abortion might very well be Down’s Syndrome in the first place, not that people with Down’s Syndrome can’t be productive members of society.

At least that’s how I read it.

Just how many people would this concept appeal to? Aren’t most of the unborn with Downs murdered?

Her mother was there too: Father, mother, and grandmother all living in the house with her.

Wow. I must have forgotten all about them.

Then again, that was one I only saw once, and that was in the theater, so it must have been 15+ years ago.

“Now a Bay Area couple...”

I should’ve known...

“Ott-Dahl and her wife, Andrea, are the mothers of three children...”

Uh-huh.
