Secret OP here
To clarify, nothing in the comment explained exactly what made the mom a "boy mom". It's been a while since I've watched the movie, but from what I can remember, Max's mom didn't do anything that coddled his feelings. She didn't let him get away with bad behavior.
Were they mad that at the end of the movie Max's mom fed him dinner?
Like....like...Max was out of line for acting out and hurting his mom. And for running away.
But Max's mom likely just wanted to make her child was safe after an emotionally charged situation/day, first of all. Second, it's not like Max acted out with the intent to hurt, scare and worry his mom. He's a child from a complicated family, like most children (yes, girls too!!).
And at no point in the movie did she excuse his bad behavior...

Not only that, the point of the story is Max is learning to deal with complex feelings because he's a kid. Every child has to learn the pains of growing older, and no longer being the center of attention in your family.

Did these people forget their own childhood? Do they want idealized portrayals of human beings? Unimaginative ways to cope with negative/complex emotions? To not even have negative emotions? I don't get how some people are engaging with movies o-o

There are definitely people out there who think that fiction should depict close-to-ideal behavior whenever possible, especially when it comes to children’s media.

I don’t actually know how many people like that there are, but I’ve run into some and I still struggle to wrap my head around that perspective.

This is insane to me but also I'm not surprised there are people that bad at watching a movie.
