who is out here claiming that shathann isnt abusive 😭
#ppl when they learn that real life abusers arent mustache twirling cartoon supervillains:#like. abusers can love the people they hurt. abusers can be well meaning. abusers can be kind and do good things#none of that negates the harm they cause. also just bc you dont hit your kids doesnt make you a good parent#i love shathann as a character. i think shes extremely interesting and very sympathetic! shes still abusive.#she literally outs taash to rook out of nowhere and shames them for being too masculine#she is deeply judgemental and hypercritical and does not respect taash. like she clearly loves them and they love her.#but she does not respect them. she does not see them as an independent person with their own desires#the scene where she signs them up to help with rook without asking them and then gives them shit for being upset is such a red flag to me#and the fact that she is outright forcing the culture she grew up with on them regardless of what they want#newsflash! constantly berating your children is abuse! not respecting their personal autonomy is abuse!#ur abuser loving you and you loving them and them doing kind things for you and making sacrifices for you doesnt negate the harm they cause#like thats just not how that works. taash isnt a fucking 'rebellious teen' theyre a neurodivergent coded abuse victim#and again. i like shathann. i love complex characters and i especially love complex family dynamics#i love that its not a black and white situation where shes just evil. i love that she cares and that shes doing her best.#and i love that they sort of reconcile (even if the game took the cowards way out and removed her from the plot.#rather than daring to be interesting and actually showing shathann putting in the work to be better over time)#but it does not undo the abuse. it does not erase the harm.#like i sincerely hope some of yall dont have kids bc if you cant recognise these things as abuse i dont trust you to raise them well
