New Cartoons Are They Too Soft ?

New
 Old

Are today's cartoons becoming too soft ? I was raised on late 90's and early 2000 cartoons. These new cartoons that have been coming out are completely. Different from the one's that I grew up with I'm not trying to come off like a grandpa saying back in my day blah blah blah. What I'm am trying to say is that they touched  on subjects and issues that I didn't think was important to children. To me I thought it was all about the action and learning a life lesson with your friends. Now these new cartoons tackle their stories, problems and even their characters in different ways then my generation would have handle it. The new shows are making kids put more thought and emotions into their actions instead of just getting angry, retaliating and fighting when they come across a situation. For an example the show Dragon Ball Z taught kids to fight our problems. The show Steven Universe is teaching kids to talk about their problems such as: saying it is okay to cry, feel sad, to be gay, its okay to acknowledge your feelings and emotions instead of just holding them in and letting them built up. I have noticed that all my old cartoons don’t do much talking which is probably why it is action heavy. It suppresses the idea or the need to talk the issues out which might explain a lot of my generation is so hard on committing or accepting things. I don’t think these new cartoons are soft I️ feel they just address their problems in a different way.
