I lived in a dorm for all my 6 years in university and heard/witnessed enough stories of people completely cut off or significantly reduce their communication with parents and siblings due to these "overreactions" and things "that don't matter".

When you are grown up these "small" things above are what determines your desire to sustain relations and bad/unpleasant things tend to pile up over time
We don't see Tohno complaining about them tho. He acts like a normal teenager would with normal parents. Getting annoyed at parents embarrassing you (as parents do), but not being mad at them for it; it's typical parent-child interaction. They aren't being forceful, and he's not showing any sign of hating them for their teasing.

Wrong, unlike this I have a good relations with them - visit and call them regularly, but that doesn't change my stand, that these small unpleasant remarks, actions and so on could ruin relations or simply make you don't want to put an effort at sustaining them.
They could, but here we see they aren't. Tohno isn't showing any form of resentment here, just embarrassment. At the very least, I think it's too early to judge.

Y'all have a lot of insecurities towards your parents, and it shows. Do you want his parents to coddle him about the reality of his brother's situation? How would that help his self-esteem at all to constantly have his parents pretend nothing is different about how the brothers are treated?

And it's not like they even made fun of him for it long, it was a playful ribbing and they immedetly switched back to gushing over him and then Houjou when they realized what she probably meant to him. And he to her.

That big guy is definitely related to Houjo

He also reminds of the Male mc from the previous work this author has done

And thus my headcanon is that it's the same guy... For now

As a middle child who felt like as a kid I was neglected. I was being a retard and if something as little as saying something insensitive to your kid by accident and the kid not conveying it back causes then that kid to cut off their parents, that kid is going to end up as a crazy cat lady or a guy who trauma dumps on a Chinese cartoon forums.

Exactly what I said, they may seem supporting but they fail to notice his turmoil and that's not the kinda support he needs.
At least they can start with not making remarks like "it is less crowded around you"
Neat parent reveal, she has gotten the thumbs up from them as well, however I don't really like them well ish like 50/50 or something they're supportive but it seems like they aren't aware that one of their kids ain't having a nice time with the isolation or alienation


IKR !? I mean, they basically told him :

"Hey, Second Child ! We actually wanted to go cheer Rei, our Pride and Joy, first but his fans were so numerous, we couldn't even approach him, so, instead, we came see you because we know nobody care or even expect anything from you ! Seriously, your lack of bitches is kinda making it embarassing for Rei, our Pride and Joy, to be related to you !"

Like, WTF !? Was twisting the knife in the wound really necessary !?
And they even double down with Izumi, basically telling her :

"Sorry you have to force yourself to hang out with our socially challenged Second Child that is not Rei, our Pride and Joy ! For some reasons that are definitely not related to living in the shadow of his super-popular brother Rei, our Pride and Joy, who has dozens of women drooling over him, he never seem to get along with his female classmates. Honestly, we kinda gave up on him giving us any grandchildren and usually just tell people he's adopted or/and gay : it's easier to justify the complete gap of success between him and Rei, our Pride and Joy !"

So, yes, I'm calling BS on them being even aware on how Youta is suffering from being constantly compared to Rei.
