CA – same as what? I did not say anything about fairy tales per se. I only advocated for reading entertaining material not comprised of stuffing morals down their throats
But no, I obviously do not approve of sharing fairy tales with children such as Sleeping Beauty, or any that have the Princess awaiting… or the many that have a handsome prince falling in love with the beautiful princess at first sight…
But there are many that are not that sort. When the Gemara refers to fables with foxes etc., that certainly calls to mind some well known tales. Some have a message that are not consonant with Torah values, others seem fine
