Troubled Fetal Position/Western Animaton


 * Total Drama Island:
 * Tyler goes into this position when he has to face his worst fear. Chickens.
 * Scott when Dawn guesses that he wasn't held enough as a child, and at times when he has to face against Fang.
 * Code Lyoko:
 * Aelita, from times to times.
 * Odd had one in "Tip-Top Shape" when he was about to die. He got better.
 * Ulrich in "Cold War" when he thought that Yumi died and he saw that he had no way to call Jeremie.
 * As Told by Ginger:
 * Ginger does the Troubled Fetal Position a few times, especially in the episode where she and Darien broke up.
 * Considering how socially awkward and shy Macie is, she often ends curled up.
 * Peridot from Steven Universe adopts this position a lot. Especially after being captured by the Crystal Gems in "Catch and Release", she spends a big portion of the episode curled up in a corner. Her most notable moment of this, however, is when she manages to accidentally join the Crystal Gems, having chewed out and insulted one of the highest-ranking people on the Gem Homeworld.
 * The Powerpuff Girls:
 * Bubbles adopted this position in "Shut The Pup Up" after being apparently insulted by Talking Dog, all the while doing the Madness Mantra of "I'm not a chubby crybaby, I'm not a chubby crybaby...."
 * Blossom does this in "The Mane Event" after everyone laughed at her Traumatic Haircut.
