Worst Disney etc parents

Watching Frozen. It's an accepted fact I'm sure that their parents were shit. Basically kept both girls captive for years, completely ruined their relationship with each other, taught Elsa to suppress her perfectly normal feelings when this is NOT what the trolls advised and then off they swan for a wedding for two weeks when the girls were still minors. They were both culpable in what happened to Elsa and Anna in adulthood.

But are there any worse ones out there?

Mowgli's parents lost him in the jungle during a tiger attack, that's probably worse.

I mean,not really their fault tho. Attacked by tigers, reasonable to assume he's eaten.

I don't know, I feel like I'd probably run with my baby if there was a tiger attach, not leave him as a juicy snack for the tiger to find. Good job bagheera stepped in.

King Triton is quite shit, just losing his shit all the time.

And Mr Incredible...was incredibly crap as a dad.

The Parent Trap.

Split the kids up and didn't tell them they were twins. Had no interest in having a relationship with their other child because they didn't want to see each other.

The parents from The Parent Trap! Split up and take a twin each, never letting their child know they’re a twin or anything about their other parent, simply because they’ve split up?? And then after all that, they meet back up and fall back in to happy families, showing how terrible and selfish they are for letting their daughters not know each other purely because there was nothing romantic in it for them. Imagine picking a twin and letting your ex take the other and be willing to never see them again, simply cause you don’t fancy their dad any more. Terrible parenting.

Yeah but Ariel is fucking annoying though. Humans killed her mum and then she’s all “but daddy I love him” after seeing him once unconscious. Plus she’s a child. I’d lose my shit with her too.

Um... Cinderella's Dad?!

Cinderella's Dad did cliche manning. Wife died, he found a woman willing to step in and run his life and "care" for his kid so he didn't have to.

Belle had a good Dad, he was trying to protect her.

Okay I concede re Mowgli, didn't remember that bit.

Frozen 2 does explain the swanning off for a wedding bit but yes apart from that they make some pretty questionable choices.

Both Cinderella and Snow White's Dads don't exactly consider their daughters when remarrying

Disney animals make the best parents - Mufasa, duchess from aristocats, the 101 damatians

its the humans who are shit x

Mr & Mrs Darling left a dog looking after their 3 kids so they could fuck off out for the night.
