What would your response be to discovering a friend's parent would say
>"I may not like you or what you do, but I'll always love you"
to them since they were able to read?
Have a friend with significant Mom issues and she threw that at him out the blue. Apparently it's been something she's said to him since he was a kid. Am I alone in thinking that's pretty fucked?

No. It means she doesn't approve his ideas or lifestyle, but she will always love him because that is her son. It's not fucked up, it's growing up and realizing you can't control your child in some situations.
Is this really the first time you're hearing this?

But to say frequently to a kid who's misbehaved? Think of how that would feel growing up to accept your Mom only loved you through obligation alone.

Sorry, browser fucked up and lost half my response. I can understand such a thing in the context of an adult offspring. As you say, it's loving your child despite their divergence from your expectations of them.

The "I don't like you (...)" part seems like she only loves him out of obligation.
In fact, if your parental figure whom you might love very much told you "Hey I don't like you" like wtf that seems pretty fucked to be honest.

depends how they say it. it can be very casual and borderline funny.
but if it was done in a really serious context it can be disappointing.
