    Is it an advanced sexual topic when a hetero married couple, like a child protagonist’s parents, have a similar quick peck on the lips? Because if so, that seems overly prudish, and if not, the people who have a problem with it can grow up. To my knowledge, having not seen the movie, that kiss was really only showing that they had someone important in their lives, and I know that Bo Peep could get away with kissing Woody in Toy Story 1 with no controversy at all. There’s also still politics within Monsters Inc and Finding Nemo without looking very hard, and I seem to remember the extremely political Wall-E being wildly popular with audiences and critics, even if I didn’t care for it.

      It’s okay to be prudish when it comes to families and children. They don’t need to grow up. If you want to make movies that are not overly prudish and targeted at children you are more than welcome to. No one is stopping you.
