my son he is sick <3

DRAGON BALL Z episode 163

and then it happens again. as fate would have it, on the one day your dad would be here, a new world-ending threat finds you. and it's a blessing that your dad is here to help, because you can't keep up, no matter what you do. and it's like you're 4 again. helpless, needing your dad to rescue you when all you wanted was just to spend time with him.

and like i think this sort of mentality would've first sparked when she picked gohan up after the fight with vegeta and nappa and he was no longer reacting like he would've the last time she saw him (she says that he's safe now that he's with her but he already knows that she can't protect him from anything. he's stronger than her) and it was REALLY cemented when he yelled at her to shut up in the hospital. something that her sweet and shy little boy absolutely never would've done before. her son was back with her but she didn't know him at all and i do think that her being against him fighting is a part of her trying to pack all the wildness he picked up when piccolo kidnapped him into a box so he looks like her son again. and i don't think she's evil or anything for doing this i think she's a mother grieving her child who's doing her best. especially given that he keeps being sent out on the battlefield to suffer. she's only human. and part of the reason she's so lax with goten and even trains him herself is because he was never taken away from her—she never had to grieve him. there was the whole mess with buu but he never left her to become someone unrecognizable like gohan did. she raised him from start to finish in a time of peace. i REALLY think she would've helped goku train gohan when he got older if gohan had only grown up in a time of peace as well.
