MLP Lincoln's Day (?) Show

This forum is for discussing Chuck's videos as they are publicly released. And for bashing Neelix, but that's just repeating what I already said.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's generally better to give kids a message of redemption and moving on than to spend time on the ponies getting therapy for their troubles here.

but glossing over that could give kids the impression that horrible abuse like what happened in those episodes is not a big deal.

Weird how you make a post and don't write anything.

I put my reply in the wrong place. but this thing with Starlight is symptomatic of a bigger problem with the show as I said before. someone earlier said that showing or talking about punishment isn't the point of most episodes, well, when is it appropriate?

Kids are born judgemental, because they are human and humans are a judgey-judgey species, so it is important to teach them how to forgive, because forgiveness does not come naturally. Forgiving is a far less harmful message to send that to keep on being judgey.

forgiveness and justice are both needed for a healthy mindset.
