what are your thoughts on kaveh’s mom? do you think it was right of her to leave kaveh in sumeru and go live her life in fontaine? i mean i know kaveh encouraged her but how old might he have been 16?
omg so this is gonna be long and probably rambley so idk if many of my thoughts are gonna be coherent as they are all over the place lol;;; but the way kaveh feels about his mom is very understandable to me, so its similar to how i view his mom as well? My mom actually did a very similar thing so the way kaveh feels abt his mom is something i can really relate to and understand?
During his hangout he mentions that her leaving didnt upset him at all and he sounded very sure of that so i dont think he was lying about it or having mixed feelings. If he was upset tho i would totally get it (since i know i was at first when my mom did the same thing) but once i thought about how much my mom raised me and sacrificed many things in her life for me and my brothers it made me not upset anymore? So kaveh saying that exact same thing always made a lot of sense to me as to why he wouldn’t be upset by it and truly wants the best for her.
So idk if i would say it was “wrong” of her to leave kaveh in sumeru, especially if kaveh encouraged it and wanted it himself. Kaveh clearly loves and looks up to his mom and seems to still have contact with her, so i think if kaveh is truly okay with it then it’s probably fine. I think kaveh would beat himself up more if she stayed in sumeru for his sake. But i think to people in sumeru who arent seeing it from kavehs pov might think shes a horrible, selfish mother lol….but as her child who has seen what his mom has been through for him, i think kaveh would just want the best for his mom and not think of it as a “selfish” thing to hate her for.
iirc kaveh was still attending the akademiya when faranak moved to fontaine, so it’s possible he might have been like 16-18yo maybe when she did that, so definitely not ideal to leave him at that young of an age LOL, i think thats the only part of all this that i have some mixed feelings on lmao;;; But if faranak was as depressed as her diary and kaveh says she was, then kaveh might have been more relieved to let her go and be happy, even tho he was still young. A child watching and living with a very depressed parent can really weigh on that child’s mental health, so kaveh mightve felt that way about his mom and thats possibly why he was so encouraging? So it could have been good for the both of them. And with how good their relationship seemed to be before everything, i doubt faranak was like “CIYAA!! BYE BYE!! 👋 “ and probably still had her own reservations about leaving and probably made sure kaveh would be okay before she left. IDK i kinda wanna trust that they really worked out kavehs living situation and everything before she left, just because they had a really good relationship before and still seem to be in contact and have a good relationship now.
Anyways idk if i really answered your question exactly, but those are the thoughts i have on kaveh and his mom LOL;; if people have other thoughts about this id love to hear them bc i might be a bit biased and basing all this too much off my own experiences…
