I think we should give the mom some credit. She actually give it some serious thought instead of lashing out (like come on, most of the parents would do the same) and evaluate the overall situation. And our MC is too good for the world and I really appreciate their family trying to protect him and meet up with ML and understand their relationship better. Most families don't give flying fucks tbh! Also knowing the MC's personality he was going to blame himself for upsetting his mom, and I think all the people around him are worried for the same reason that's why they are having secret meetings. The MC can come out to them if he feels comfortable not because he's forced to.
