Ah, 1. Ariel's living with Eric now, she can't be grounded (well, technically beached, but still) by her father or her sisters (and I don't think her sisters have that authority anyway), plus I'm pretty sure they and Triton would have perfectly understood especially after Morgana nearly fed Melody to her shark, and 2. look, I know you mean well and all, but sometimes telling the truth would if anything make things even WORSE than before, especially when Morgana IS the reason why she had to take such desperate measures to protect Melody. To use a good example, Belle told the truth about Beast's existence. Want to know how that turned out? Simple. That resulted in the villagers deciding to kill him, and Gaston egging them on into doing so. I can cite other examples as well: Namely, Kefka telling Terra the truth about what happened earlier between her and Onion Knight and what that nearly resulted in for Terra. Or how about what happened to Sephiroth when Genesis spilled the beans about Sephiroth’s origins, and how that turned out for him. And if Melody inherited Ariel’s more reckless side, that would actually make it an even WORSE idea to have Melody learn the truth.
