Honestly my pet peeve is the “I have lifelong trauma and the hero/ine has one fight with me and all of a sudden I’m healed” cliche. Can’t wait for this side arc to be over.
They’re trying to portray this Mom as super over-protecting and creepy but tbh she really hasn’t done anything wrong (other than that weird way of searching him out by showing up at his house). She hasn’t really forbid them from seeing each other. And obviously you’re going to limit their time...
