Why did Disney start to cater to older audiences instead of staying with a younger one?

My friend needs help with an essay and would like to know this!

Why did Disney start to cater to older audiences instead of staying with a younger one?
To the tune of the Mickey Mouse Show.





M-O-N-E-Y!
Reply:Because kids don't get paychecks to spend.
Reply:thats where the money is
Reply:Actually, I feel like they've catered to the younger ones.


Their movies arent enjoyable to me anymore... they're too simplistic. Whatever happened to movies like HOND (espeically adult-like), BATB, and TLK?





If youre talking abuot their non-ainmated films, theirs only one reason : CASH.
Reply:I would posit that actually the opposite has happened, or at least, their offerings have become more stratified, with the company acquiring major entertainment outlets (like ABC) that are geared at the general populace and adults, while watering down their children's programming to a level fit for toddlers (see: most Disney Channel programming).





They do this so that they can cover more bases, target-audience-wise, and thus make more money, because more kinds of people want to buy their products.
