    1. She is! I usually write her as a supportive mother, even though she sometimes lacks a bit of distance from her children's matters. 😅 I know she often gets criticised in fandom for the way she treated her children, but for me, it was always obvious that she loved them to bits. That's what I like to focus on. And when kids get older, it usually becomes a bit easier to let the parental stance go and talk to them like fellow adults. At least it should; it's a pity so many parents miss that ability...

      Anyway, I'm happy you enjoyed the chapter and the way I wrote Charlie!

      1. I‘m usually also more a Molly hater.
        But I also like to see her being a good mother. I fully get your Point!!!!
        I also ended up searching for more ace Charlie fics, due to this one.

        1. I absolutely get not liking Molly. She did some questionable stuff in the books. At the same time, she reminds me of my mother and my grandmother in the way she treats her children, and they both love/loved me dearly. So, Molly's overstepping boundaries feels more like "I know better because I have more life experience and I want to protect you from humiliation and heartbreak" to me. But I'm absolutely guilty of depicting her in a more sensible way than canon has and just claiming she learned from her mistakes. 😆

          I have to admit I haven't read a single Charlie fic so far; I'm a die-hard Snape fan and fics without him feel slightly pointless to me lol. But I'm happy I could make you curious, and if you happen to find a good one with a mentor!Snape, please share the link! 😁

          1. Oh that’s actually really sweet. And I get changing a character to own likes.

            I actually only read some Weasley kids focused fics and are not really a Snape fan so I sadly can’t recommend anything.

            1. Oh, no problem. Maybe I'll look for them myself, then. 😊
