As someone who's had a controlling mom, I beg to differ. According to wauwy, it's not "oh, she just wanted a child". Controlling parents are an issue too and, from what I got, that was the point of the original tale. You don't have to be downright abusive to severely damage your child, you know. At the same time, most controlling parents do love their children; They're just messed up themselves.
The point is, they could've delved deeper into their relationship - but naturally they didn't because Tangled is still a Disney princess movie, so let's just treat everything as black and white.

No, what Gothel is in Tangled is downright abusive. And guess what? It's an accurate fucking portrayal. Sometimes, the abuser doesn't actually give a shit about the kid, sometimes they do. But Gothel wasn't just controlling in Tangled--Disney did a scarily accurate portrayal of emotional and mental abuse.
