Reviewers too had some negative takes, with one saying the topics were "inappropriate and sensitive for many of its very young audience" and asking that we "leave sexuality out of [children's] entertainment." They finished it with that old dinger of a line, "Let kids be kids", insisting we "let parents handle the coming of an age stuff." In typical social media style, the backlash itself has had a backlash with many questioning why periods are still taboo in 2022. https://twitter.com/suekirk/status/1504039467996389377?s=21 What do you think?
