YES FINALLY

Be nice to your mother in law, Shimamura.

 

[Serenata]

Hopefully the mother will find out and be like "oooh!"

 

[JKTV]

Honestly I forgot what was up with the whole sit-up thing

Even though the sauna situation strained suspension of disbelief in and of itself, what got me was having to go back and re-read the previous chapter to make sure I wasn't getting their mothers mixed up. Seeing Shimamura's mom berating her so much in the previous chapter, I feel like Shimamura's mom is the one who deserves the dressing down.

The most surefire way to get your kid to internalize the idea that they're no good is to constantly tell them that they're no good. Between being distant and constant belittling, I'll take being distant any day of the week.

The scene at the end was so cute

 

[Zexalfan]

so far the second volume feels like an improvement from the first~

Well, that was certainly unrealistic: A Japanese teenager talking back to a grown-up the way she did.
Still, It was nice to see that she cares more about other people than she thinks and that she got so up in arms about Adachi.
The reverse lap-pillow was very nice too

 

[OkayButWhy]

Time to wait another month * laughs and turns into a cry*

; I don't think that it makes much sense to claim that it were unrealistic for Shimamura to challenge Adachi's mother.

 

[DatOneGuy]

Dang, a mom that can admit she is parenting wrong, especially to a teenager is SUPER impressive. Baby steps mama-Adachi, baby-steps.

 

[Kaldrak]

What an interesting chapter that was. Lap pillow scene was cute.

What's the point in ranking them? They're both shitty abusive parenting styles that lead to maladaptive behaviors in children. Maybe just encourage parents to be attentive to their kids but mindful of how their words affect them and avoid both
