FAIRY TALES TEACH US A LOT
For hundreds of years, and perhaps even thousands of years, adults have told traditional fairy tales to their children. The stories have been handed down from one generation to another. They have become a fundamental part of your culture. In early versions of fairy tales there is much more cruetly and violence than in the stories published for children today. The case of Cinderella is a good example. In this variant, Cinderella's step-sisters are very pretty rather than ugly, as they are in the modern version.
