Really OT, but this is why I hate most Disney cartoon films where the the female characters are always trying to earn respect and love from male characters as if they need it for validation. Luckily my daughter loves Moana. It’s one of the few where the female character is strong and there is no love interest with the male character. It’s a good movie for girls to watch.

Sorry for going into dad mode there for a minute.
Disney has altered that traditional approach for the most part.
Moana, Frozen, Tangled, Brave and others all have strong female characters that are heros and save themselves for the most part.

Brave in particular is a great movie to watch with your daughter - if you haven't already.
