Is it cold in here?:
Ms. Reed is _so_ lucky Faye wasn't around when she went off on Marten. The Intimidation Field might not have protected her.

DSL:
The Intimidation Field might work, even on the Peach. But you're right; a direct attack on Faye might be less of a trigger than an attack, real or perceived, on her Indieboy.

Just because she felt that doesn't mean she was due it then. She was out of line and Marten had every right to object, and she was even further out of line for shutting him down.

Even the worst parents feel respect is owed.  Sometimes, the worse the parent is, the nmore they feel that way. 

Out of line or not, she's his mother.  And he's a "good boy", so he'll kowtow.  Family dynamics.

He's theoretically an adult. I said nothing about whether he should have objected; he had a right to. The manner of his objection was that of a petulant teen.

--- End quote ---

Of course, what right did he have to stand up to her? He should have just let her keep rolling over him. His mother KNEW he was at a low point. He didn't ask her to come, she insisted. She then spent almost all her time there insulting and embarassing him, but decided to sneak off to hug and comfort Dora. The only petulant one would be her, Marten finally told her enough was enough and she decided to smack him down publically, and honestly Marten also should have called out his so called friends for not saying anything during that.
