Talia truly IS The Ex From Hell. She ain't gonna win the Mother of the Year award later.
I find it difficult to hate Talia because she is a victim just like Damian expect in her case there was no bat family to the rescue and she was in too deep.
I prefer the titles where we see caring loving mum Talia. Sadly DC has been moving away from that for quite a few years. I like Talia as a baddie who still cares for her kid.

Well ..... technically lil'd both of you have dodgy mums.
You've got a point there . I'd forgotten Their interactions from RSOB [where she conquered a country for him and lost her shit when Maya dared to criticise her darling little Demon]
Supersons [where she shit talked Bruce for attempting to attempting to turn Damian normal and crushing his potential]
Teen Titans [where she remembered his Birthday unlike Bruce and even came bearing gifts in the form of info on the upcoming hit squad coming for him and other young heroes]
She needs to be the caring, if evil, mother to him. She does a lot for him, but often the wrong kind of "a lot". Like taking over a country.
And, while not immediately related to Damian, what about her relationship with Jason? No, I don't mean the thing that was thankfully retconned out of existence, but since New52 and what not.
