While I can definitely see how animated films would have the
potential to shape a young child’s mind, I don’t think that it would be correct
to say that they 100% do. What a child sees/interprets compared to what an
adult sees/interprets, is going to be very different. And even if the animated film creator has
certain ideologies and beliefs that bubble into their creation, the probability
of a child picking up on it is probably very small. But with all that said if a
child is constantly watching shows and films with violent tendencies or
inappropriate words, I can definitely see how that might affect their
personality. Same thing goes with little girls wanting to be princesses and the
idea that they have to find their prince.
In the end, I feel, it all depends on what the child is
watching and how long they watch it. If a child is sitting in front of the TV
all day watching cartoons, then maybe they will be more likely to pick up on
the subtle influences because that is what they are exposed to for such a large
amount of time.
