Yeah, ist just a meme and nobody likes smart arses. But Struwelpeter isnt a FairyTale. It was kind of a teaching book for bad behaving kids. As far as I rember, the author was part of movement, to modernize education. From our perspective ist seems "a little" harsh for kids, but back then it was really progessive.

"Grimmschen Märchen" (Grimms Fairytales) on the other hand are the classic German Fairytales. But for most of the stories, many characters in this stories have a comparable or even more fucked up life. Like many other European Fairy Tales (Hans Christian Anders, Russian Fairy Tales, I dunno). ... As long as you take the Original and not the Disney-Version. For Example or spoiler: The little Mermaid isnt living happily ever after :<
