One of the oldest questions about the family life of the ten year old kid who sets off in search of a Pokémon adventure concerns the role of the mother. More specifically, people have constantly wondered why the trainer's mother doesn't seem to have any life outside of sitting in the kitchen waiting for the occasional visit.

More concerning still is the fact that she doesn't even seem to have anywhere she can go apart from that kitchen. The basic, two storey house features the kid's room on the first floor and the kitchen/diner on the ground floor.

Your mom has no room of her own, and nowhere go to unwind, relax or even sleep. The poor woman gave us life and helped us set out on a wondrous adventure, and sacrificed all of the most basic human comforts to do so. What a saint!

There's also the question of there being no bathroom, of course, but let's not get into discussions about poop mechanics in Pokémon games.
