Not what I'm looking for. It's more of a patronizing and superficial enthusiasm.

The first two fit but I had considered them already. I thought there may be some obscure but more specific word that I could use.

>>7657518
Consider using two or more well known words instead of one obscure one

More people will understand you

>>7657518
Don't look for specific words to fit a situation because you're just going to use them incorrectly or obtrusively. Expand your vocabulary as a whole and you'll use them naturally without even realising.

Ok. Advice taken. I'm not trying to be obscure or clever, I just felt there was a word I wasn't remembering.

'pardonable enthusiasm' of a child to catch the moon.

I guess you could say the mother has a 'knowing' air about her. It doesn't really fit the sentence, but it's a suggestion.

OP here. Thank you all for the suggestions! I've decided which word to use now. Much appreciated.

>>7657484
To be a senpai.

his mother is humouring him

This is a tricky kind of question. I like it.

Empty faith, false hope, disingenuity.

It's hard to get the encouraging, but faceted nature in one word...

False encouragement...

Platitudinal? I didn't actually know that was a word until now. I like that one. It's got a nice sound to it.

Indulging tb.h

Avuncular.
