I feel like a lot of people do. For me personally, I never saw the concept of child abuse as funny no matter how it's displayed so I was just left horrified during those parts especially the haircut and wire hanger scene. Maybe the first part of the wire hanger scene was a little comical like how she's throwing a temper tantrum over one wire hanger but then she got violent so that became unsettling.

I never understood why people find it funny.
Like I get that it’s over-the-top. But why is over-the-top child abuse funny to anybody?

Any amount of hitting your kid is abuse and that movie’s depiction was definitely upsetting af.
