"These were hidden behind an array of different varieties of security fences."
Once upon a Time, pg. 235
This story is incredibly ironic. The things that were meant to protect the child actually ended up killing the child. I think it is the same as parents who are overprotective about immoral things like drugs, alcohol, and sex. By protecting their child to the point where the child isn't educated about those things will cause problems later in life. The child could be easily tricked into doing those negative things, and, not knowing how bad the effects will be, could become seriously injured. The parent would be at fault for not education their child, because they were trying to "protect" them. In the same way, the parents in the fairytale tried to protect their son with restraining walls that were the cause of his death. Just like Eveline, restraints ended up being the downfall.
