Well her Mom is relatively sane anyway, even if her Dad is a hyper-emotional goober.

One wonders whether he's over-emotional about just this one particular topic, or about everything? That is, did he have a personal trigger button {perhaps as a result of his own childhood experiences) or is his "emote" knob stuck at "11"?

I'm willing to go with the "reliving childhood traumas" myself. My childhood was enough to give me PTSD before I graduated high school, so I can definitely sympathize with adult characters stuck with traumatic childhoods.

Hey, we get to meet both her parents. That doesn't happen all that often with characters in this comic, the other times being Shelly, Roxanne, Nudge and Tsillah, and Rigo. Usually we only ever see one of the parents, even if we know that the character still lives with both.

From his family's, "Oh, this again" response, I'm getting the feeling that this is a normal sort of thing for him. So unless his childhood experiences were so utterly traumatic as to be commonly triggered, I'm guessing that he's just really passionate about a lot of things.
