Eh, some are just stubborn and want their personal head canons to be fulfilled the way they want them to be rather than than give a damn for for the (slippery slope that we call) canon. I'd partially blame young age, but there are plenty of folks who are young on here who can at least use logic when deciding what is and isn't a fairy tale character.

The sad part is that, well, the definition of what's "is" and "isn't" allowed in Ever After High is actually a lot more flexible than people think it is: Duchess's mother is from Swan Lake, a ballet of course. King Lear (a daughter of hers was featured in Maddie's e-book) is not only featured in one of Shakespeare's plays but is a legendary figure. This opens up a plethora of older works, plays/ballets, and stock character types that have yet to be tackled as potential fairy tale parents. Even Alice in Wonderland is a gateway for the children of classical, fantastical childrens' books characters, and it's disheartening that so many people don't seem to see it.
