I never questioned why Melissa did what she did. It was to protect her son. Once she entered that rabbit hole, how could she not spiral downward? I just hope that there will be an option for her and Parker to dig themselves out and 'become closer' along the way.Part of the "all of you not understanding Melissa's motivations" comes from the choice early on to tell the story primarily from Parker and Bill's point of view. So, you never hear Melissa's thoughts, for example. But, again, the fact that this wasn't somehow brought out does represent a plot hole, and thus goes directly back to the authors.
And just to be clear, 'become closer' means hooking up.
