Stories help a young child make sense of the world around them. The fairy tale genre is mostly a favourite for them. They provide ways for children to receive important messages. One may argue that the themes are unrealistic, but, overall the effects are positive. Over the years these stories have been an integral part of the growing age. And I was no exception. I devoured those stories and thoroughly enjoyed them. However, after years when I revisited few stories, some felt almost problematic or rather outdated.
