The best Cinderella stories/retellings are the ones where one of the stepsisters is KIND.
The kind stepsister is her own flavor of "Cinderella" since she has the courage and integrity to stay true to her kind heart, even if it means getting ridiculed and dismissed by her mother and sister.
It also gives testimony that just because you were raised by a terrible parent, doesn't mean that you are doomed to be just like them.
