Abusive Parents is actually a pretty dark trope. Current image depicts a scene from a show we know works on Hilariously Abusive Childhood. I found this example which feels more representative of what the trope aims for. Thoughts?

I'd say put that pic on the Comic Books subpage and the Simpsons pic on the Western Animation subpage.

Pull Simpsons pic to avoid overlap with Hilariously Abusive Childhood.

Health sure is versatile. It's possible to be both light-headed and dim-witted. At the same time, no less.

Yeah, I think the suggested pic could go on the Comic Books subpage as well.

[up]I second the pull.

[up]Nothing in that picture really indicates abuse or parent-child relationship. It simply shows one person kneeling in front of another. For all I know it could just be a servant/slave prostrating before his master.

The clock's way past due and I'm not seeing enough consensus on anything to make a move. Locking up.
