Quite as sweet and innocent as history makes out? I mean, on top of breaking and entering, she then eats their food (having contaminated all three dishes), kipped in their beds, and is then saved from it all? Never mind squatting, if that little turd had narcotics on her this is simply modern day cuckooing.
And what about other would be child-heroes that, actually, aren’t? From that beanstalk-climbing trespasser to Humpty Dumpty, I mean what a twat when you’re that vulnerable and fragile. Almost like persisting with a 3-5-2 given the same fragility.
No wonder society is fucked with these as our examples. Give me an Aesop’s fable any day.

I know, what sort of example is that? Then there's Bo Peep and her negligence at work, the poor attitude of the rock a bye baby woman, don't start me on Jack and Jill's blatant disregard for health and safety

And we know all about the Grand Old Duke of York. Apparently he ‘had’ 10,000 men, but no context given; my guess is that Peter Mandelson was among them front and centre.

Just want to say thanks for all the posts above in this thread.
I am having a shirt time of it at the moment and definately not winning at life, suffering with health, work, money, family and to add to it the baggies are a joke. I hadnt been on this site for a long time and something just popped into my head lets have a look whats going on there now. So glad that I did, this thread had me laughing out loud and literally in tears, so thanks for brightening my day up and giving me a reason to smile for once.

Red Riding Hood. Yeah, just go walkabout through the forest and fetch up at grandma’s where a big fuck-off wolf lies in bed waiting for din-dins and you start asking questions about his physical appearance? How about getting your eyes tested you dippy tart?!

Don't get me started on that Wee Willy Winkie lad - he'd never get away with that in 2026.
