![]() I’m incredibly lucky to have grown up with her around. However, from a very personal standpoint, I cannot imagine my life without my own mum. I don’t, and never will, seek to change their minds with my thoughts on the matter their own reasons are wholly valid whatever they are. This is something that I feel Steven Universe successfully subverts and, for the most part, dodges quite well.įirst and foremost, I know too many people out there who cannot stand their mothers. Mothers, primarily biological ones, are there as fuel to burn the protagonist’s motivation while their own arc goes up in smoke. These aren’t always terrible roles for characters to play, given the right attention and nurturing they can even help flesh out a character over time or aid in providing the right weight to a situation however, when it comes to mothers, this is rarely the case. Sometimes nameless, occasionally silent, women who are either helpless, shrill, or too often dead before any story can begin. For a long time I’ve been pondering the roles that mothers play in fiction, especially media aimed towards younger viewers.
