Was Mary a bad parent yes ? But is it works for her character ? Definitly. Snow was a princess and she had a burden of looking over the people from a little age. Her whole being was for the public and she still thinks that well being of the community is a must so when she choose that over Emma it works for her writing.
We also know that she lost to raise Emma, her own daughter so she comes of a pushy person and that is understandable but not okey.
So stop hating my girl because of her writing or if you going to hate her you should hate every parent in ouat because they all made mistakes
Emma like her mother gived his son away which was about how she was raised and didn't want to same for Henry, she wanted him to have a family.
Regina was also pushy to Henry because she had a mother that didn't love her enought and a father that didn't do anything to about her abuse so she wanted to be there for Henry but in the end she hurt him like how Emma hurted Henry and how Snow hurted Emma.
There is so much example of this in ouat and i am only seeing a hatred for Snow and it is so upsetting because writers made her dirty by not giving her enought screen time and not looking deeply into her.
