I would love to write a TTS essay explaining why Gothel isn’t Cassandra’s mother and Frederick and Arianna aren’t Rapunzel’s parents and the show’s insistence on pushing parent/child struggles into those characters is kind of really forced so that’s exactly what I’m gonna do:

(Disclaimer: this got really messy and is kind of a bunch of nonesense glued together, so read it with a bit of patiece lmao)

Rapunzel grew up for the first 18 years of her life with Gothel, when TTS starts she has been living with Fred and Ari for 6 months and it’s wild to me how Raps already calls them mom and dad, but I won’t judge this part, she wants to be their daughter and wants to be a family so it makes sense that she would call them that way regardless if it feels natural or not, but I think where the series really fails is when it starts (by the very first episode) to give Rapunzel and Frederick father-daughter struggles, which is complete bs if you ask me, those two don’t know each other. Rapunzel shouldn’t have a “oh, I can’t disobey my father” train of thought because she doesn’t even know him and therefore he isn’t her father, at least not yet. She shouldn’t be so trusting of his judgement of love for her because they don’t have intimacy and the fact that they are fighting and disagreeing so much after having just reconnected is wild. Arianna is not that important for the plot, but her relationship with Rapunzel being so unapologetically perfect also rubs me the wrong way. Rapunzel was ruined by her mother, she was abused her whole life and I don’t think she would just let anyone fulfill the role Gothel did without getting some therapy to unpack everything wrong that her mother, the one that actually raised her, did.

Rapunzel had a narcissistic mother, an awlful one who never loved her, but that doesn’t mean that she didn’t love Gothel. Raps lived her whole by that woman’s side, she loved her more than anything in the world and realizing the manipulation and abuse wouldn’t just immediately stop a person as kind and forgiving as Rapunzel to still love her like a mother, because like it or not Gothel raised her for 18 years. She wasn’t a good mother by any means but she was her mother nonetheless.

Another point is that at the end of season one Rapunzel goes away from Corona to explore, learn about the world and her own powers. I am not exactly sure how much time passes from the beginning to the end of s1 but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t more than 6 months, so Rapunzel lives with her bio parents for about a year and then goes straight into a one year long self discovery journey and you’re trying to tell me that she missed them? Not even just missed, but when she got hold of an artifact that showed what you waned the most what she saw were her biological parents and the people of Corona who in the first episode she claims to not remember the names of? That’s some real bs right there and I have no idea how the show runners thought this made any sort of sense. She doesn’t fucking know them, maybe she respects or care about her folks, but she couldn’t have possibly built this life long parent/child relationship that the show treats like she did.

Now, with Cassandra it’s a bit more complicated. She lived with Gothel for about four years of her life before being abandoned, but she very obviously didn’t remember any of this, either because she was too young or because she repressed those memories. Gothel didn’t seem to love Cass in the slightest, but because Cass grew up with only a emotionally distant father she longed for this reassurance that she was loved by a parent figure at some point in her life, she blames Rapunzel for everything that went wrong with her life, which can make sense but also is a bit awkward to sustain once you analyze the actual facts. Yes, Rapunzel and Eugene killed Gothel, but she didn’t mean to do that, it was Eugene’s plan and he only did it because Raps had literally agreed to be used and locked up from the real world for the rest of her life. Cass isn’t dumb, she would know better than lashing out at her friends for accidentally saving her from living with a narcissist who didn’t care about her. Gothel isn’t Cassandra’s mother, Cass doesn’t have a mother because she didn’t have anyone to actually raise her.

If I was to rewrite Tangled we’d have a very different approach to how bio parents are handled, especially Rapunzel’s. I don’t think she should be close to Arianna and Frederick at all, heck, I don’t even think she should call them mom and dad. Cause bear with me, if you randomly found ot you are adopted by the time you were 18 and actually went to live with your biological family for about a year do you think you’d even have this sort of intimacy and bond with them?

Have a good day as well, anon! Not sure if this gif fit but I was the only one I could find with the both of them that kinda fit the plot. Just a heads up, there's some miscarriage mention after the gif: if that makes you uncomfy, please scroll away. This got kinda long so I put it under a "keep reading" thing

⚗️ When Rapunzel was taken from your parents four years before you were born, your parents swore that the next child they had would never leave their sight, lest they be taken as well.

⚗️They began trying for another child almost immediately after she was taken, but suffered many losses. They were about to give up when you came along.

⚗️Though you could never replace their firstborn, you were loved by your parents.

⚗️ But, for the love of the suns, could they be stifling.

⚗️ They expected you to take on the crown if Rapunzel were not reunited with them.

⚗️ Your mother tried, of course. She had known in her youth the dangers of being forced to conform. But she couldn't do much against your father.

⚗️ Two guards tailed after you at all times. The only privacy you had was when bathing, though a guard would stand outside of the bathroom.

⚗️ Due to this, you didn't have many friends.

⚗️ One day, you decided to escape the castle. Even for a few moments, you wanted to escape the crushing burdens and surveillance.

⚗️ You came across a boy wearing goggles one day outside. He was putting cool neon-colored chemicals into a beaker and making them explode.

⚗️ "Excuse me." You cleared your throat, hiding your excitement at finally talking to another person freely. "Is that magic?"

⚗️ He didn't look up when he said. "Nah, there's a difference." He went into a long-winded rant on the differences between the two.

⚗️ You felt yourself growing nervous. "I'm sorry for offending you, then. My apologies."

⚗️ He still didn't look up. "Nah, it's okay. Most people--"

⚗️ He finally looked up at you and startled.

⚗️ "Your Royal Highness!"

⚗️ "Please don't tell anyone," you begged. "I couldn't take it anymore. I just need a break from that, even if it's just for a little."

⚗️ "If you want to stay, Your Highness, you can."

⚗️ "Please just call me by my name." You gave your name. "What's yours?"

⚗️ "Varian." He looked at you like you were the stars in the sky. "I need an assistant. Want to help me?"

⚗️ You gave him one of your true smiles, not the ones that you have to foreign dignitaries or your father, but one of you. "I'd love that."

⚗️ As time went by, you and Varian grew closer. Rapunzel came back, Varian became and stopped being evil, Cass turned evil, and other assorted things happened.

⚗️ One day, Varian was playing the piano. He stopped playing and sighed longingly when you walked by. Rapunzel sat next to him.

⚗️ "You should just tell them how you feel," she said, continuing where he left off. "I can see you like them a lot."

⚗️ "How do you know they won't reject me?"

⚗️ "Because I'm telling you right now that I like you." You cleared your throat, clasping your hands together. Your palms were sweaty and your heart was in your throat.

⚗️ Rapunzel gave a megawatt smile and gently pushed Varian up.

⚗️ He looked at you with adoration in his eyes and held your hands in his. Slow as honey, he leaned in. You decided to speed things up by firmly interlocking your lips together. He cupped your face gently.

⚗️ You had been born into a life of privilege and wealth, you realized. But to have his love set upon you was the most privileged thing of all.
