Wow, this is one hard to read chapter, but of course this doesn't mean that it wasn't good, but quite the opposite
As difficult as it may be, Danny might be better off without his mom at this point. When he grows up, maybe he can reunite with her, and maybe she'll learn something from this, too. It's so sad when someone loses themselves like that. And we all have to admire Danny for being so strong, especially given all the hardships in his life. At least he's not taken from his mom and sent who knows where. He found himself a family, a home, and a gorgeous boyfriend, so all must be good in his world, the little cinnamon roll.
