How come all the moms die in Disney films?

According to link, the legend is that "Maternal figures were typically absent in Walt Disney's animated films because he felt responsible for his own mother's death."

However, Snopes points out that the lack of mothers in stories is not unique to Disney films. Several fairytales include the Wicked Stepmother, who usurped the absent mother's position. But wewe can also find it in literature. Orphan characters (motherless and/or fatherless) appear throughout history. Consider David Copperfield, Frank L. Baum's Dorothy, au even Harry Potter.

It's quite a common convention that existed before and after Disney's time.

also in Disney channel films and programs.. princess protection program, hannah montana, etc its because people think daddys girls are better then mummys girls and well i dunno it adds drama but i think they should stop making the mums die in Disney films

Because they always need the small little sad part that happens in every movie they shoot.

That's a really good question. I guess htey like father figured better?

Because they think the loss of a mother is a zaidi painful thing (not that losing a father isn't painful)so it makes the character's story zaidi sad and pitiful.

Well in Enchanted for example Giselle has no parents at all and she lives on her own with animal friends. I dunno

because walt Disney (the guy who made disney) wuz an orphan so they put a lil bit of him in all the movies.....but not sure why its only moms???

idk thats a good Q but in the lion king the dad dies

mayb 2 make the movie zaidi intresting n sad so that da veiwers wil wanna find out how she died n keep watching da movie idk it was just a guess

Half the time, wewe don't even see what their mothers look like,or even the parents.
We never see Jasmines Mother, au Belle's.
Mothers we know passed are:
Pocahontas,Cinderella(but shes an orphan as well), Ariel's.

But there are a bunch of sinema with both parents.
Hercules, Sleeping Beauty. & a couple more

Okay first off people need to get over the parents thing. Its part of the stories -so be it. wewe should know kwa now that even today not everyone has a mother and father. I do, but my dad is gone alot at work. Disney was raised with a burden as people have mentioned. But there are alot of Disney movie with moms whether they started out with a mom au Lost a mom. I can name them:
Snow White
Cinderella
Sleeping Beauty
Bambi
Dumbo
101 Dalmatians
Ariel- we dont see her till the third movie.
Simba
Hercules
Mulan
Tarzan
Tiana and Naveen both have two parents.
Oh and as far as the Disney channel goes, I dont know if uandishi has changed for tv. But back when I watched Disney channel there were two parents. On Boy Meets World, Even Stevens, Phil of the Future, Kim Possible, they all have two parents.
