I normally try not to comment on subjective takes, but in this case I feel compelled to point out that while MC is significantly younger than Linda in this scene, he is NOT a minor. He has graduated from high school and is her employee.That was weird? The 40+ year old sleeping with the minor she was harboring and supposedly taking care of while her husband and infant daughter were in the next room was the weirder one for me but to each his own I guess. Erica's mom is the character I hate the most so far. Especially because her husband seems like such a cool dude.
In some areas in the US, it's possible to graduate at 17, but for story purposes that is provably not the case here. We know Alex and Jaye's birthday from the date of Sarah's text message on James' phone in the Prologue. Since graduation in the US is typically in June, we know that MC must be an adult, even if only by a few months.
The same holds true for her daughter. She's a teenager, not an infant.
That's not to say her behavior isn't beneath contempt for a whole host of other reasons.
The reason for this clarification is to nip ANY speculation in the bud that is wink-wink/nod-nod shota/loli content. It's not.
