I think Regina is kinda terrible, but I have a problem seeing how she could have been a bad mother before Henry ran away. She didn't seem particularly terrible to him. Magically over protective? Yeah.

I just think it would be awful to be an adoptive mother with a child that actively states you're not his mom and seems to try his hardest to get away no matter how mom-ly you are.

Well, I think the idea of her behavior towards Henry at that point of time is that Henry already noticed he was the only one growing up (perhaps that all his classmates in school were staying in the same grade while he kept moving up) and Regina, in a bid to keep her curse, sent him to a therapist and made him feel that he was crazy.

This next part is just a theory, but when Regina was warned in fairy tale land about curse exacting a price from her, "a hole in her heard that can never be filled," I wonder if it was her capacity to love at all. Even afterwards when its broken, she admits that she hadn't known how to love "in a long time." So while she tried to form connections, and went through the motions of motherhood, it didn't really work. Maybe?

Trying to convince your kid that they're crazy if FUCKING ABUSIVE!

It's called gaslighting and it's a way to manipulate people and bend them to your will.

Also, she's a serial rapist - that's not an appropriate person to be raising a child.
