Seems like every Disney movie features a child character who disrespects their parents and disobeys them.

Remember, that all drama is based on conflict. That is why parent against child, child against parent is so powerful in theater and film. Nothing unusual in that. And why “Long Day’s Journey Into Night” is still considered America’s greatest contribution to theater.

Many classic films of Disney were very powerful and had very dark imagery - Dumbo’s mother, Bambi’s mother, Pollyanna turning against the town after her injury...all great stuff of drama. And all happily healed by the end.
