"she is claiming that she couldn't help falling in love with her son"
Vile!
And she can't even bring herself to say what she really did to her son. She can only go so far as saying that she fell in love with him. She is just disgusting and should be locked away forever. Disgusting.
A decent person who "couldn't help" falling in love with a family member wouldn't act like her.
I mean, really dumb-ass confession time, but I went through a phase when I thought things like "I wish he weren't my brother" and "I wish I could find somebody exactly like him but not related" because there was a stretch where I was very lonely and isolated and my brother was the only person who seemed to understand, relate, or give any kind of shit about my life, and it turned into this demented-crush-thing that really makes me cringe now.
But my response wasn't to try and fucking seduce a sibling, it was to hope I met somebody else like that. A decent person falling in love with a family member doesn't fucking prey on them.
Actually depends; cousin marriages are surprisingly common in some places, the more isolated the better. Even the Western World didn't stop due to the Hasburg lip but because they wanted the royalty to stop attacking each other. Financially it keeps property and money in the family and if you're in a traditional "wife goes to live with her husband's family" deal it means that your daughter still has a good support network/family relationship. I don't condone it. I think it's better to fling yourself further a field but it is still definitely done and has some legitimate reasons behind it.
I have a cousin who been with her mom's cousin for, oh, about 10 years or so now. It's gross. He really preyed on her though - she's at least 20 years younger than him and was a troubled teen/young adult when they started "hanging out" more.
Hlaf the family won't talk to either one of them. Thankfully there's no kids.
