Perhaps, I don't know, parenting your child would go a long way to making sure she doesn't blast anyone in the face with ice magic. Teach her how to be calm and test her to see what causes it to happen so that she can control it.
While we live in an era where we do actively try to determine the cause of something because we realize it is the best way to potentially control it, Frozen seems to not be in that era at least when it comes to things that affect human beings. It could be said that in an attempt to stay true to said era, they decided to embrace the fear. How else would Elsa become a Snow Queen if things did not go in such a bad direction? I suppose she could have accidentally killed her sister... but then she really would lose her mind and go evil.

the mention of True Love's Kiss and Anna going "oh snap does Kristoff like me? well I better kiss him" undermines the whole bit where we ask: Does Anna actually have romantic feelings towards him, or is she just happy to take anyone who is interested in her?
It may be difficult to derive Anna's feelings at the moment as she is patly more concerned with surviving and trying to help her sister. And why should she be concerned with how she feels toward him when Kristoff wasn't even really aware of his feelings toward her?

Hans is great. His motivations are horrific but he plays the nice guy really well. I can't fault Anna for trusting him because she is a moron.
Strong word. Anna has had no experience with the outside world and doesn't have a grasp of the depths of deceit. Her sister doesn't trust people because she has had to keep her powers a secret to protect the family. Thus she has a better grasp of human nature.

Marriage is not a "solution" for another betrothal. This teaches children that if they can steal somebody's love then they should. Can you imagine a generation of girls who backstab each other to win boys? Far out. The fact that this is a musical jingle makes it problematic.
Have you ever heard of "AIFILAW"?

This is personal opinion and not a universal definition for the term fixer-upper. If a guy beats you, just show him love: he's a fixer-upper and loving him will help him! If a girl is clingy and doesn't let you see your friends, stick with her anyway: a little love can change the world!
Except that neither of those traits are mentioned in the song. In no way does it encourage people to think of control freaks, stalkers and abusers as fixer-uppers. It also doesn't say anything about settling into a lost cause.
