Cursed Child WTF

Nothing warms the cockles of the heart in a child friendly book series like a touch of casual, non-consensual semi-incest.... Wait, what?!

How is it okay for Albus to use Polyjuice potion to masquerade as his uncle, Ron, and then forcibly kiss the mother of his first cousin? She might not be his auntie by marriage, but they're a bit too close to be actually full on kissing enough for her to taste the inside of his mouth.

And then he just sort of laughs it off, calling Ron affectionate as if he didn't just coerce his sort of aunt into a kiss despite his protestations to keep her away from the door.
