Disney has made a fortune by not preparing kids for reality. One of the appeals of Disney movies is escaping to a fantasy world where candlesticks talk, carpets fly, and every character has their own quirky animal sidekick. That’s all fine and good until the same Disney characters become parents. Once the Prince knocks up the Princess, and things start getting real.

Earlier this year, Buzzfeed and artist Paul Westover posted these funny glimpses into the unsettling reality of our favorite Disney characters as parents.

What If Disney Characters Were Parents?

Yeah, we made a fuss about seeing The Little Mermaid when we were kids because it seemed like such a girly movie… but we sang a different tune during that scene when she got her legs and swam to the surface naked. For many of us, the luscious and doe-eyed Disney princesses sparked our sexual awakenings. Whether it was Jasmine’s mid-riff or Pocahontas’s short skirt that seemed impractical for running around the woods. These deviously drawn beauties captured our hearts — and, er, other body parts — as adolescents. For years they represented the ideals of femininity… until Adam Ellis gave them all beards.
