This is exactly why I couldn't get through more than a book and a half of Lemony Snicket. Every adult I've ever known has at least played along with a kid's seemingly-outrageous fantasy at first, even if it's just to attempt to prove it's their imagination. Having adult characters completely dismiss anything a child character says without a second thought just feels so violently unrealistic that it takes me completely out of the story (or show, as the case would be for OP's example, though I haven't seen it myself yet).

(For anyone else who just couldn't deal with Lemony Snicket, the Mysterious Benedict Society series does a good job of subverting the "adults don't believe kids" trope.)
