If you had to live through what Cinderella went through with her stepmother and step-sisters, how do you think you would've handled the situation? Would you have stood up to them when they tried to bully you into doing all the house chores, or would you have done what Cinderella did, basically sticking it out until a prince came to rescue her? Out in the real world, I am sure there are plenty of ‘real Cinderella stories’, about people who have to deal with mean step-parents or step-siblings, an…
