Remember when the entire story was an analogy for 'around blacks never relax'

Based Brothers Grimm.
Whenever you see a new modern retelling of brothers Grimm H C Andersen, old nursery rhymes it's a good bet that the original meant Something entirely different to how it's regarded now.
Ring a ring a Rosie is cute right? Yeah it's actually a kids rhyme about the plague.

That's cultural appropriation.

It’s a mess that’s what it is...
Thought you may find this interesting...
Charles Perrault explained the ‘moral’ at the end so that no doubt is left to his intended meaning:
From this story one learns that children, especially young lasses, pretty, courteous and well-bred, do very wrong to listen to strangers, And it is not an unheard thing if the Wolf is thereby provided with his dinner. I say Wolf, for all wolves are not of the same sort; there is one kind with an amenable disposition – neither noisy, nor hateful, nor angry, but tame, obliging and gentle, following the young maids in the streets, even into their homes.
Alas! Who does not know that these gentle wolves are of all such creatures the most dangerous!

Hope the wolf ate her

Not sure on what level of understanding but according to the story that is exactly what happened.

Nah, the woodsman came in and axed the wolf and saved LRRH.
