* ''Manga/SpyXFamily'' has an unintentional example: Yor was PromotedToParent for her little brother Yuri after the death of their parents and she genuinely loved him and did all she could to give him a good life (this is how she started her work as a ProfesionalKiller) and Yuri sees his childhood as a happy time. However, a mix of LethalChef and DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength caused the boy to have to grow up with horrible food that makes most people throw up or pass out (he [[BizarreTasteInFood genuinely loves eating her food]], even if it causes him to puke and bleed) and suffering from bruises or broken bones when she would give him a "light" slap in embarassment or would hug him a bit too tight.

Furthermore, their abuse towards him continues to this day; when Amir came to visit them during vacation, his father greeted him by throwing a cast iron skillet at [[MindScrew the back of his face]].
