TheSnuggleKinz,

"Y'all gotta remember that this is a kids' show and that they likely wouldn't put anything inappropriate in it due to the possibility of losing many watchers. "

No, it's a family show. Lauren Faust herself said on multiple occasions that she created a show that can be watched and enjoyed by everyone, so parents can watch it with their kids and not be bored.

And after she left the show, it's obvious that for all seasons after that the staff working on the show kept that in mind: this show has a lot of elements, sometimes very subtle, that can be understood and appreciated by adult people only.

That's why we get hints on Scootaloo's disability, and on her lack of parents (or at the very least a lack of caring parents, judging what she said in "Parental Glideance").

That's why we get to see many things that sometimes don't look very suitable for kids, borderline things I mean.

This is a family show. It's not a kids' show.
