I was watching Frozen with my cousin's daughter, and one of the protagonists Anna falls in love with a prince named Hans after a few hours of talking to him. They immediately approach her sister Queen Elsa for her blessing for their marriage, and she says no because you've literally only known the guy for a few hours. Later Elsa turns out to be right because Hans was deceiving Anna in order to gain control of Elsa's kingdom. I thought it was a valuable lesson to teach children — ironically a horrible lesson that you shouldn't trust people, but yeah — except Anna ultimately ends up with Kristoff, a person she's only known for a day. So I guess the ultimate message is six hours is too short a time but twenty-four is okay?
