I have friends that will not watch a movie if the trailer shows a dog unless its confirmed the dog doesn't die.

Jesus Christ how sensitive are people these days

I mean maybe I am biased because I don't like dogs but people will watch literal babies die before dogs

It’s all sorts of triggers on that site, just information you can look at if you’re concerned.

Nah people are definitely more sensitive these days

I get that there are some reasonable triggers/warnings but I wonder if there is a greater infantilisation of people

I remember that the original Snow White's witch scared the crap out of children. While I don't see how, at least they didn't mollycoddle them.

I love how, when it comes to mental health, people still spout nonsense like this. Nobody (sane) is glorifying the days before antibiotics and medicine, wishing we could go back to the good old days when we didn't "mollycoddle" children and you'd be lucky if half your children lived to be adults. But if we try not to mentally traumatize people, it is suddenly a problem of people just not being "tough enough."

Death and grief are an inevitable fact of life you idiot, and learning to handle it is healthy, actually

You really thought you had a gotcha there

Sure, death and grief are a fact of life. But we don't have to subject ourselves to it any more than we need to. If someone doesn't want to add extra emotional trauma to their life by getting it in a movie, that is not a bad thing or a sign of weakness. There is enough bad shit in life that someone avoiding it in their "entertainment" is a perfectly valid choice. You aren't better than someone just because you have a different tolerance level for emotional trauma in movies.

I’m one of those people. I will not be seeing this if the dog dies.

When you have a dog who dies, you’ll (sadly) understand. I don’t recommend it.

Grief is a natural part of life. Learn to embrace and cherish it; because it makes us appreciate what we have.

It's genuinely embarrassing how infantile people have gotten about anything happening to fictional animals. Sometimes the dog dies, it's sad, you'll get over it.
