Tbh, it's not a fairy tale but an illustrated children's book written in 1845 by Heinrich Hoffman for his three year old kid. It was one of the first illustrated books, so it is considered to be one of the first comic books. Each story has a morale but is way over the top.
Interestingly a lot of the descibed behavior is known to be with ADHD or anorexia, today.
Growing up in Germany I always find Struwelpeter a quite horrible book (yes, I too had it a kid).
I guess it's also kinda "woke" by today's standards, because there's a story in which a couple of boys make fun of a black kid and get punished by a giant wizard who dips them in ink so they're black, too.
That one's awful because their "punishment" is to be made black, making the moral more like, "Don't make fun of the poor wretch that was born that way."
I don't know. It's punishing with something they themselves think of as a bad thing, not necessarily their judge. It's not uncommon to punish with the very thing someone hates or what is related to the crime (community service for behaving asocial, for example)
Curting off a hand for stealing! (Are we still doing this?)
Struwelpeter was kinda gruesome.

Ah yes, homemade Christmas presents, WCGW?
