The stories we were told as kids were all gruesome, as i recall. I've always thought it was odd. Take "Rock a by Baby in the Tree Tops". That was a song meant to fall asleep to. It doesn't end well for the baby. The nursery tales were mostly grim. I still remember them all. They didn't paint a Disney-esque world.

Maybe the parents were trying to harden the wee ones; prepare them for the grim reality of their future.

Cautionary tales. Don't wander off on your own in the woods, or like Hansel and Gretel, you'll be caught by a cannibalistic witch.

Got to say at this point that 12Kb is a ridiculously small size for an avatar. I'm pretty sure I can't get a 150x150 image as small as 12Kb.

Ok, I can ramp that up, so try again after you've read this.

I thought it was bigger, because I'm sure mine is over 12k.
