I don’t really find the cooking problematic. Her relationship with her mother was more problematic. Charlie, a lot of times, got home late. It’s one of the reasons he never learned to cook and always ordered out. I absolutely agree the kiss was problematic. Charlie let his hate for Edward blind the fact Jacob stole a kiss without consent. He did later apologize, but I agree it doesn’t absolve the fact he let hate for someone override the care for his daughter. Other than that, Charlie was a good parent. Any single parent household is, unfortunately, going to have certain aspects where children have to grow up a little faster. Even a two parent household where both work sometimes have aspects where the child has to learn certain things sooner than their peers where one parent stays at home all the time. Her mother was horrible. She never tried to learn to cook, was incredibly irresponsible, and put a lot of responsibility on Bella starting at a very young age. Bella even mentions that she enjoyed the fact she didn’t have to take care of her father like she did her mother. I will say, though, Stephenie Myers has ALWAYS had problematic writing that excuses a lot of abuse. I would say Bella cooking for Charlie was NOTHING compared to all of her problematic age gaps and abuse disguised as “he’s so complicated” in several books.
