    We get it. "You don't solve anything with violence." It's Spider-Man. It's not funny to be the 75th comment to point this out.
    Officially considered 'lost' by the Lost Media Wiki (until now), here's a tape I've had for about 15 years. Because it's an educational Spider-Man cartoon, it was only distributed to schools and libraries. I worked at a library while we were transitioning to DVDs and Blu-rays, so I brought home some of the stuff that was headed for the dumpster. Unfortunately, this is only one tape of a set of four, and we never had the others.

    For everyone joking about "you don't solve anything with violence", this was made for real life educational purposes to aid children possibly suffering from abuse. In real life Spiderman isn't going to come through the window and beat the shit out of the abuser. Sometimes young children need a colorful cartoon character to get a point across to them.
    There was a Superman comic where Superman saves a little boy from his abusive father who locked him in the basment and even in that in universe comic Superman didn't mercilessy beat the shit out of the day

    I think the main reason Spider-Man didn't do anything when he saw the girl getting abused was to show kids that when you're in an abusive situation, you can't rely on a superhero to swoop in and save you. However, Spider-Man totally would and should have gotten involved because it would show kids that there is at least someone who can help you.

By eighth grade, I was always checking my back to see if things I said and did would anger her. I remember getting triggered and reminded of the pain at Disneyland (one of my favorite places). When I got back home, I told my therapist what happened, and she brought up the possibility of me having PTSD. I tested as having severe PTSD, but I felt that I couldn't tell my parents. So, I called a family therapy session for my therapist and me to tell them. When I had my therapy group later that day, the group leader said I looked lighter. And I felt lighter too.

      Some people are beyond help. Sad that they lost their chance to get it, you can’t be overly concerned with empathy for child abusers.

      The hulk tv series did this as well.
      Marks father was abused as well as a child and he replicated what his Dad did to Mark
      By the end though he thankfully changed his ways and got psychological help.

    It’s easy to roast these heavy-handed PSAs now but back in those times, it was very likely that the kids that needed to hear this might never have come across this information any other way. It’s not like the internet was public or in common use like now.
