Does the last panel of the child shaking in fear of their parent really give off “this is a humorous comic” vibe?

Yeah, I took this to be a fairly serious comic. Parents do shit like this to their kids. The author just heightened the extremity of the situation to show how bad and harmful it is.

I do think this could have used a CW or something though. I'm feeling a bit of good ol' activation after reading it. Got that fun little ick vibe in my stomach and my arms are buzzing a bit.

I’m sorry for that, I do apologize.

It's okay. I get activated by shit all the time, so I'm used to soothing and chilling out.

I want to punch a comic. That's a healthy response, right?
