Randomly remembered how as a kid my mom would always fast forward through the beginning of ‘Finding Nemo’ because she thought Coral’s death was too violent, so for years I never knew why Nemo was raised by a single father and assumed Nemo’s parents had gotten fish divorced and Marlin had won custody of Nemo. My dad’s biological parents divorced when my dad was young, so I always knew what divorce was and I knew my Grandma had gotten primary custody of my dad, so I just assumed that’s what happened with Nemo. It wasn’t until years later when I watched Finding Nemo with my grandparents without my mom and they didn’t know to fast forward through the beginning that I finally knew what happened to Coral and I was *devastated*.
#this is why ya gotta show your kids age appropriate scary things#otherwise they inflict the legal system on unsuspecting fish
