I guess this is supposed to be funny but it reads as sad and abusive to me.

Does the last panel of the child shaking in fear of their parent really give off “this is a humorous comic” vibe?

Yeah, I took this to be a fairly serious comic. Parents do shit like this to their kids. The author just heightened the extremity of the situation to show how bad and harmful it is.

I do think this could have used a CW or something though. I'm feeling a bit of good ol' activation after reading it. Got that fun little ick vibe in my stomach and my arms are buzzing a bit.

I’m sorry for that, I do apologize.

It's okay. I get activated by shit all the time, so I'm used to soothing and chilling out.
