I hadn't ever thought about that while watching it as a kid, but it all makes sense.
Anyone else know about this? |
I am so amazed by how people can see mental disorders where there is none. lol the characters A.A. Milne wrote about well the book was published in the the 1920's for which many mental disorders were not even discovered yet..and researching the author will find that the christopher Robin was modeled and named after milne's son who had no mental disorders. the winnie te pooh character came from the real christopher robins stuffed teddy bear named edward, and how the real christopher robin would play with him and also based on a real live bear characters/behaviors of a live canadian bear named winnie...eeyore the author used the sound donkeys make to base that characters name and character from, Milne 's opinion was the sound donkeys make is a sad one....
all the characters and settings in winnie the pooh have perfectly normal reasons and bases for..
but like I said its amazing how human beings can project problems, mental disorders and physical health problems where there is none in reality. lol
