I see a lot of people complaining about the father arc but irl it’s hard to live with an abusive parent as a child and as an adult keep hoping that your parent changed and even ignore the red flags because youre desperate for the connection and affection you missed out on. The father knew that and it helped him keep him Mc under his thumb.
It was frustrating but felt realistic of having dysfunctional relationships with your parents who pretend to care yet are using you but that 1% of love you’re getting makes you crave and hope for a better future with them.
