As bad as Mac's mom is, believe me, she could be worse. She could be a psychotic control freak like Lois from Malcolm in the Middle.

Well, according to BFAHP, Mom at least knows about Madame Foster:
I know, its just the game and not necessarily canon - but still, either its a bad mistake or a clue...I dunno.

I seriously don't see Mac's mom in this light.....AT ALL. I don't think she was heartless when she told Mac to get rid of Bloo, I think she felt she was doing it for him to grow up and not rely on Bloo so much. Not as some kind of punishment.
But truth be told, I think she really just didn't understand how important imaginary friends are to people or Mac. I don't think she hates them and judging by how she seems to treat mac during the Christmas and Slumber party episodes, she really cares for him. She concerns about him and isn't the mean, monster of a mother people seem to be making her out to be just because she decided to get Bloo out of the house. Honestly, I think she is now fully aware of how important they are to Mac's life.

I still believe it was heartless to force Mac to give up someone he cares about greatly, even if Mom meant well. Maybe, my tune will change one day, but not right now.

Oh and might I add, Wilt is a prime example of what can happen when you force an Imaginary out the door (if that was the case), they get into serious trouble sometimes. Poor Wilt.

My only wonder is exactly how familar with the concept of imaginary friends is Mac's mom? We know she knows about Bloo, but they never really state if she ever knew him personally or ever talked to him or did anything like that. I don't think she realized how human like he was.
Because we don't get any idea of what happens in Mac's life prior to "House of Bloo's", we can't really tell how Mac's mom interacted with Bloo or actually saw him. I honestly think she was just doing something in the stupid lines of "Best for her son". However, we also have no idea how she would feel about imaginary friends now. People change and I can't recall anything recent saying Mac's mom still hating imaginary friends. Mac still freaks out over the fear his mom may find out, but I wonder if she would react differently now. We've gone through quite a few episodes since "House of Bloo's" and even characters like Mr. Herriman, Wilt, Eduardo, and Mac have broken out of their character "roles" and shown new sides of themselves. I don't think its totally impossible for Mac's mom to possibly have a different view on IFs now.

My point is to not judge characters simply on earlier episodes or statements. Good exmaple. I felt Frankie's reaction to the dumping of her computer in "World wide wabbit" was a bit out of touch for her, though funny it sure as hell was.
But then someone pointed out it was an earlier episode and as we have seen, Frankie is not that "weird" with her stuff. Same with Bloo. Bloo was actually more mellow and less rude or dim then he was back then as opposed to how he is now. Bloo changed alot and I don't think its fair to hold things against characters when it was seasons ago since we last saw any further signs of this IF bashing from Mac's Mom. Evereyone deserves a second chance, don't judge her entire existance on one episode forever.
