And let's not forget Doctor Nemesis's Nazi history...how Magneto hasn't killed them both considering his history is strange to me. There was a story a few years ago that Magneto came across a mutant who had been a Nazi and he killed him.
So why can't the FF ask for the same courtesy? Why can't they have their members escort Franklin on a supervised visit of Krakoa. Some humans have visited the island, at least 2 live there, you just need to ask first.
If the mutants refuse such a reasonable request then in that case the FF would have every reason to mistrust them
If they are this "concerned" over Franklin going to Krakoa now, what's going to change in a few years when he's 18? Most kids Franklin's age are already thinking about college, why shouldn't Franklin start thinking about his future?
Colleges send scouts to high schools all across the country to visit teenagers, to talk to students and invite them to their school. How is what Xavier doing any different? They didn't try to talk to Franklin without his parents, they wanted to include them in the conversation
It seems the mutants could have shown up, literally kidnapped Franklin, and some posters here would say they were right to do so. Krakoa is both good and bad but it seems that some people can only see and overzealously exalt the good.
Yup. Bringing MAGNETO to talk to the FF? You bring out Mags when you want to intimidate people, just like we've seen in Hickman's X-books so far to spectacular effect. Krakoa's approach was all wrong, and Kitty could easily have taken Franklin to his room, to the roof, to that same restaurant on Yancy Street... but no. She took him right to the gate then tells him to do what he wants to do? A troubled young man having issues with his parents and his powers given an immediate and obvious way out of familial and personal issues? The set up of it was perfectly carried out by the mutants but only stopped by Reed's honestly overzealous and tone deaf attempt to 'help' his son.
Does anyone really believe that Xavier and Magneto and Apocalypse would have kicked Franklin out if his parents and legal guardians said they didn't want Franklin there and to return him? Perhaps after Sinister had a genetic sample but certainly not before.

If you’re referring to the pre-Secret Wars FF run, they didn’t send Valeria to live with Doom, she ran away to do so only leaving behind a note. And given all that was going on at that time, they weren’t able to simply go and get her back. You did see later the Hell that Sue raised when she tried to get Valeria to come home later in that story.
Lol I thought the same thing when ai read this dialogue. I like Sue. Sue is fiery but reasonable most of the time and typically written better. This dialogue feels very contrived for the sake of drama. This reaction to the X-Men, considering their history of working together and even with the perception of Krakoa, feels so forced. Though I agree with others that Magneto was a poor choice to bring along.
This is a stretch. If the mutants wanted Franklin he would’ve been taken. This team is too powerful. Several can one-shot/BFR 3 out of 4 from the gate.
Sinister has been collecting DNA for a long time. Him not having Legion because Legion is 'gone' is a new development, so it is not a reason to not have his DNA. Now, maybe Sinister needs live samples for what he has planned or something, because we know Xavier made him upload everything into a digital library.
That said, maybe you are right and he does not have any DNA of Franklin, in which case the writers are just continuing to whack at the already shaky foundation of this thing.
