    Once again wah wah wah wah. I have one eye thats blue and one gray – we need a character that has that attribute YOU MUST must include that. How about an old pricess, or a morbidly obese, trans questioning princess with one arm and missing three 2 toes on her left foot and 1 on her right.
    GRow up.

      Walt, you must be one miserable individual! You must have mommy issues! I pray that you never have to go what this family has gone through!

  2. Diane

    Very rude.

    Wishing Disney considers the mother’s request.

    I couldn’t even make it through the entire article. Please, people, why can’t you just enjoy what is out there for you? Everyone wants things tailored to their specific issue or disability ~ how far does this need to go? We each have to accept and deal with our specific disability but I would never expect the whole world to cater to me. Just enjoy your life the best way you can.

      Exactly!

    Disney won’t even give freckles to a Scottish Princess because freckles are “blemishes” (yet will give other characters freckles), why would they put a Princess out there with obvious disabilities? If they don’t “appear” perfect, they don’t do it….. Sadly.

    I am 100% onboard with a Disney Princess or Prince with a disability that children are able to see. I am not however onboard with including LGBQAI in movies intended for small children. My 3yr old does need to see two “boys” kissing in a movie. At 3 he shouldn’t be exposed to anything like that. Just so everyone knows, I’m not LGBTQAI phobic or otherwise. I grew up in the early 70s knowing, that my cousin 2 years older than me was a lesbian, it never once crossed my mind even when we were small kids that she wasn’t… but I didn’t need to see her kids a girl to know that, I’ve got a family full of gay, transgender and lesbians who totally agree that’s it’s inappropriate in a Disney movie.

    Inclusiveness is good only when it doesn’t cause harm. Displaying LGBTQ (like violence, incest, flasher ….) as normal/natural can cause harm by confusing and converting kids to that harmful life choice.

    The harm is real: statistics shows the largest increase in history of the number of kids today who cannot identify their own gender despite their unmistakably clear anatomy.
