urgent update

so I'm sure all of you have been wondering the answers to the questions regarding The Little Mermaid from an earlier post. I don't want any of you to lose any more sleep so i just found out an answer to one of them. I was watching the little mermaid beginning, today, on the Disney channel and it shows Ariel growing up. It also covers Ariel's mom and why she isn't around. apparently she was killed by some pirates when Ariel was really little. so there you have it you can sleep sound tonight... a mermaid was killed by pirates and left seven children and husband to fend for them selves. Yes this is what is in the movies my child is watching great message right:)
