#but anyways. happy jiujiu and jin ling for the win :)

[featherlight-whispers]

i can’t stop thinking about jiang cheng’s parenting(?) style. if you take into account how he was raised and how his parents treated him, he’s doing so well compared to them. yes, he’s harsh with jin ling, but not downright abusive like his mother. yes, he probably has no idea how to deal with his and jin ling’s emotions, but he doesn’t put himself above jin ling like his mother usually did with him (except, of course, with the fall of lotus pier). he loves jin ling so much. and jin ling knows that, but i still don’t know how to feel about his canon parenting

from an objective point of view, jiang cheng is not as good as a father figure as other characters, but he’s also on his way to break a cycle of abuse, which is extremely difficult and deserves to get some recognition

#thats why i like modern aus where jc goes to therapy and manages to be different to his mother in terms of raising children #so i can explore the potential he has as an emotionally stable person who can connect emotionally just a tiny bit more easily with jl #but anyways. happy jiujiu and jin ling for the win :) #mdzs #jiang cheng #canon jiang cheng #question mark #jin ling #featherlight-screams
