A lot of times in fanfic there are trends I don’t like but I get where people are coming from and why they like it
I have never for one second understood the appeal of the overly invested parent trope. Especially (but not only) when they’re deep in the details of their adult child’s sex life. I usually see it supportively (yeah, get some!) or just really wanting the details, but also sometimes overprotective (how dare you put your dirty hands on my baby!)
The closest I can guess is it could just be an extreme swing in the other direction from parents who are unsupportive but even then
