☓ Personality: Rapunzel is very much a typical teenage girl, full of energy and dreams and raring to go and prove herself now that she's come of age--except she's been locked in a tower for all her life. We all might have had strict parents, but Rapunzel's "mother" is certainly one of the worst.
We first gain insight into Rapunzel's personality through her first song, When Will My Life Begin?.

Gothel had painted it as a world of pain and misery, full of selfish and horrible people--but she learns that Flynn is a very kind and caring man, and even ruffians and thugs can be kind as well. In the end, she also realizes that the cruel and horrid one is Gothel herself, telling her that "you were wrong about the world, and you are wrong about me!" as Gothel was always quick to tell Rapunzel that she couldn't last a day outside the tower. She grows slowly out of her naivete, though of course, a few days are not enough to rectify eighteen years' worth of solitude . . . but Rapunzel's intelligent, as mentioned earlier, and Flynn even states in the end that she rules the kingdom with the same wisdom that her parents did before her, despite her sheltered life
