I have always called Disney the “All Orphan Network”

You can never watch a Disney movie (even the old ones) that doesen’t have a storyline either void of parents, parents killed, or parents evil as part of the main plot.

Try thinking of one?

Well, sometimes the dad is around. I seem to recall the Little Mermaid and Belle from "Beauty and the Beast" had fathers. I think the princess in Aladdin had a father, too. Not sure what Disney's got against moms!

How about Peter Pan? The Darlings are good responsible parents even though it did not seem that way to the kids.

Pinocchio? Geppetto is nothing if not the kindly parent.

Swiss Family Robinson? Happily married, heterosexual, couple defending their children.

1001 Dalmatians? Both humans and dogs come off as good eggs.

Oh, c’mon. That’s ‘cause you can’t have adventures when mom’s around.
