What kind of parent has already shown their kid Lion King at age 2 wtf
My thought exactly
I think sad ppl eat more cake
Yeah, no one would wanna tear some cake up because they're sad
Not sure if this is a big brain move or a precursor to a sadistic.
Kid's just on the right side of history.
There are no just kings, the end of Mufasa and his literal reign of terror is cause for celebration.
3! = 6
Not very impressive this time..
I read it as 3 != 6 and thought "well, yeah, what about it?"
People let less-than-3-year-olds watch The Lion King?
Yes. Circle of life and hakuna matata are great songs. Besides, Hamlet is a good story. Or the Northman or whoever was first.
I was thinking the same king. Media consumption for a 3yo, total, per day, should be less than 30 minutes. And probably should not include The Lion King, cartoon or not.
My issue with it wasn't screen time, it was the disturbing death scene.
It's never too early to teach a child that the only good king is a dead one.
Better turn it off after "hakuna matata" then, I guess!
Another lesson!
Don't let the prince escape without at least witnesses to his abdication!
To be fair, Scar ordered Simba killed, too. It was the hyenas who failed to finish the job and lied about it.
...Actually, that reminds me: the "Be Prepared" villain song ruins the anti-monarchy lesson. Specifically, the line:
Idiots! There will be a king. I will be king!
So yeah, even watching any part of The Lion King fails at teaching that lesson. You'd have to pick a different show entirely (maybe *Kimba the White Lion, LOL).
Honestly betterr than what I was watching, who the fuck lets a 4 year old watch fucking Day After Tomorrow? And thats on the lighter side, I still cant enjoy Japanese horror because my mother decided that watching the original Japnese version of the Ring with her small child was a great idea. Just glad I grew into slashers.
Fuck that, cut me a slice right through the middle of mufasa
I’ll eat the Simba!
Yeah, kids are mean little fuckers. Most would love this cake.
Remember kids there will always be a bigger psycho than you no matter how psychotic you are .

Also came here to say that . Beat me to it .
You get an entire cake to yourself but it's covered in fondant. Congrats kid, you played yourself.
Might as well make her a republican or CEO right now!
