Yes, but chronologically that was before the time when MC ran away from home and his/her half-sister stopped talking at some point.

No, he's right. If memory serves, Rec' said both protag gender are valid and canon.*Her.

Who cares about... discussions about possible directions the game is going, on the thread of said game...?Who the fuck cares??? Really... FFS.
What would you like, that nobody ever says anything and we just all wait in absolute silence for Rec' to post about an update ?
This is probably a dumb question but how much are we forced to interact with this Rachel character? I didn't like her from the moment I saw her and then she is practically stalking us when it's clear the MC doesn't like her either. I got the little glimpse of the past with the dad treating her like shit but that in no uncertain terms justifies her treatment of the MC when he was a child (abuse of a child whether physical/emotional/sexual is huge no no for me). It seems we are already required to molest Rachel when she is on her mystery pills but can we slowly push her out of the story and just focus on Ellie and others or should I just stop now and save myself a bunch of future frustration with forced content with a reprehensible character?

Or, possibly, Rec might be telling a story, and there may be more to it than we currently know. Especially since there is already a planned addon after the main story is finished that tells events from Rachel's viewpoint.
Maybe just back up off that ledge and see what happens.

My impression of that was that Ellie is pulling the silent treatment on her as well, but Katherine is a trained psychologist and she's got a pretty good grasp of what's actually going on and why. Possibly even because she herself has her own demons and issues that sort of relate to our shared past. So she basically has insight that no other therapist would.
It's probably similar to how Katherine figured out what was going on between the two siblings, even though I feel like Ellie would never even remotely have told her that even if she was talking. Katherine is just good at paying attention and putting the clues together.
Of course I could be wrong and it's actually canon that Ellie talks to pretty much everyone other than her mother and the teachers at school. But I don't really get that impression. I think at the moment the only one she talks to is Jada.

The only question that remains is: How does Katherine know about the event when Ellie asked the MC about getting married? Sure, she could know that from Rachel, too, but I doubt that Rachel would have just accepted it so calmly at that stage of her life. That being said, we do know that Rachel underestimated or misjudged how close MC and Ellie are.
Personally, I think she only talks to her best friend Jada, and only when she's sure no one is within earshot, and to Katherine, but only what is absolutely necessary.

Well of course he's telling a story. I just simply want to know from those who are caught up to the current content if we can limit our interactions with her as the story progresses? Or is it a lot more drug induced molestation throughout?
TBH I just don't really care to see her side of it in whatever flashback-spin-off. Sure she went through some traumatic shit but that does'nt give her license to traumatize a young child in her care simply because he's related to her abuser.

I can give you answers in a clearer (if more blunt) manner.
1) No, you can't entirely avoid Rachel. I imagine that's unfortunate news to all 3 people out there who want to.
2) What you care to see or not is irrelevant. There's simply the story Rec is telling, and you're free to engage with it or move on.
Sorry if that's crass, but hopefully that answers your questions.
