Nope. Henry didn't think Regina loved him because of her strictness and the whole therapy with Archie. And the Pilot establishes that both of those things pre-date the month he had with the book by a mile.

Henry IS A CHILD. He doesn't know any better. Since when is raising a child strictly about stroking that child's ego and being buddies? Sometimes, a parent has to be strict. Henry was too damn immature to realize this. And I"m beginning to wonder that many viewers of this show are, as well.  And Henry began behaving in a hostile manner when he learned about the curse, because of that book.  At the time, Regina did not know this and was at a loss about what to do about his behavior.  That's why Henry ended up in therapy with Archie.  This is your idea of abusive behavior.

How many adults post on this board? If there are many adults, I weep for our country's future generation. Because right now, we have a bunch of Mildred Pierces raising children.
