My 6 month old daughter loves it...but look closer

Warning: Spoilers
*Spoiler Alert* First of all let me start by stating my 6 month old daughter LOVES this show. She will watch it repeatedly daily, however after prolonged exposure I have become concerned about the hidden messages. Charlie is adorable, but his friends treat him like DIRT! Literally from the very first episode where Violet and Red show up at his house uninvited an Violet STEALS his pancake assuming it is for her, followed by just about EVERY character showing up and him having to make a machine to fill all the orders, of which his friends take them ALL...even queueing multiple times before Charlie has even had one. A "friend" then breaks his machine and runs off, leaving Charlie sad and so hungry his stomach growls. Octo-bocto hardly ever says bye to him. Miss Weather makes him do HER job for the day, then adds a PUZZLE to solve in order to get to the button to call for help if he struggles! In one episode he becomes big (giant size) which could be viewed as a disability as he struggles to control his size and breaks the playground equipment, his friends the use HIM as a swing an slide set...his ACTUAL body?! If he was in a wheelchair they would probably use him as a go-cart! Its cute, its colorful, it makes my daughter giggle and smile, but ooooh those friends need sorting out!
