The video did bring up some interesting questions, although I'm not sure it did a great job of actually answering the question from a torah view other than that she was "panicky".

Yishmael was NOT a baby. He was at least 16. (13 when he was circumcised and then three years until the big party when Yitzhak was weaned. There is a mildly inspirational message in this cartoon but I really don't think I want to see more of this stuff. There is a lot in the story of Avraham and his family but it doesn't fit well into 4 minute cutsie-pooh. So, skip it next time! Um, trying to be cute. Yishmael was NOT a baby. He was at least 16.

Who is Seh-rah? Why is she made into some bitch? And what “great” nation are we talking about? Surely not our cousin mamzeirim, y"sh? A very strange video.
