Mother knows best

Although I also had doubts about the princess's acceptance that the person who had lived with her for so long was not a mother, and accepted her death without regret. But in general, there is still an end to the setting of Mother Gothel, and I have no objection to it.
Disney has set this villain very cleverly. Its cleverness is that it perfectly restores the role of a good bad guy in disguise. The "bad guy" I use here is in the literal sense. For her, I Without any mercy.
Seeing the comment that the prince's return only exists in fairy tales, "and men in reality often only leave behind by sailing away like in the movie." Therefore, the mother's open arms is the best destination for her daughter. But in fact, Mother knows best is a clear threat. It is not a mother’s word-of-mouth advice, but a selfish and dark old witch's most disgusting intimidation to a young girl.
Is the mother's open arms the best home for her daughter? So as a good girl, never marry someone and stay with her mother? Please, which mother would say such a thing? Although the mother is extremely worried and suspicious, she knows that it is impossible and incorrect to trap her daughter. Therefore, she will only use her experience to tell her children what kind of man is cloaked in people. The scum of skin, and what kind of man has a sincere heart.
Sanmao was warmly entertained by a wealthy family. She was very grateful. Finally, when she learned that the family was planning to adopt her and plan to use inherited large sums of money in exchange for her non-marriage, her eternal companionship, her reaction was Feel sick and leave forever.
Please, not all people who say "sweetheart" and "love you" are good people. Here, "I love you" "I love you more" "I love you most" has a deep irony in it.
We have to see a lot to understand this truth, how can the princess who grew up in the tower distinguish it. But thanks to the child's keen intuition, the wry smile on Rapunzel's face showed that she was not comforted by the lack of love words.
Intimidation is one of the most disgusting behaviors an adult can do to a child, and it can ruin a child. How many mental illnesses come from the exaggerated sense of insecurity at an early age, parents’ moodiness, inconsistency in words and deeds, and violent use will make a certain sense of powerlessness accompany the child’s life. I suggest you look at Karen Horney’s work. Although the psychology at that time has been criticized for a long time, at least she pointed out what kind of love is pathological, including parents’ distorted desire for control and children under this situation. Possible pathological attachment to parents.
Rapunzel can grow into the appearance in the animation is already thank goodness, she has not been blocked by the tower for her lively and brave heart, nor by the tower. Her yearning for the outside world, the whole animation my favorite is the princess walking out In that part of the tower, the whole world is shining. If I were the queen, I would hate the person who kept my daughter for 18 years. If I could, I would rather her be treated as a farmer’s child, and if there she would get the true love of a mother.
Regarding life or nourishment, it is too complicated. It is not just a simple legal or moral issue. The key lies in emotion. But in fact, this is not involved here. As I said before, Mother Gothel here is completely a "bad guy". Everything she does in the animation is set with ulterior motives, despite my attitude towards Rapunzel himself. Suspicious, but for the queen, she doesn't need any feelings other than hatred for Mother Gothel.
Let’s put it this way, for a person who really raised my child, I can hate her because it has caused great harm to me, but I will not allow my child to hate the person who raised him, because This is ungratefulness, no matter how wrong the premise it is based on. But for someone who kept my child for so long and allowed her to live in that environment with ulterior motives since she was a child, and even tried to scare my child into a poor worm, so that she might never get out of the tower forever, I just want to Let her be broken into pieces.
Finally, if Mother Gothel attracts people's attention, if she can make people a little bit vigilant, then she is equivalent to success. May all the discussions about her be worthwhile.

    The second half ended hastily, and I couldn't help but scrutinize it, but the scene where a thousand sky lanterns rose up in the night sky was really romantic and wonderful!

    This witch is the smartest villain I have ever seen in cartoons, but unfortunately, I lost in the end.
