Dad Problems

Punished Madman

"Well, Mr Midoriya." The child psychologist Kenkona Daino addresses as she closes the door to the child's play area in her private clinic. "I have some unfortunate news in regards to your daughter's mental condition." She begins, motioning for Izuku to take a seat.

"I had a feeling this may be the case, after what she had gone through in the hands of the Shie Hissaikai, it would have been a miracle for her to be completely fine afterwards." Izuku responds before leaning forwards in his chair and resting his elbows on his knees. His fingers pressed together in a thinking pose as he locked eyes with the doctor before him. "What is your diagnosis?"

"She's displaying all the signs of post abuse stress, PTSD and high anxiety for starters. Due to her young age, she may have associated all adults as possible threats. She's anemic and malnourished from her time as their captive as well as increased photosensitivity." Izuku starts to tone out what she's listing off, as the fury starts to build up in his mind. Even after killing the entirety of the Shie Hissaikai their presence is still there in the after affects on Eri's body and mind.

"If I erased her memories and replaced them with new ones would it undo these issues with her mind?" This question stops the doctor from speaking, her raising an eyebrow at the question before pausing for a couple moments. During her pause, Izuku stands from his seat and walks over to the window watching Eri play with Nejire with a couple dolls in a doll house.

"I am unsure... If you don't mind me asking Mr Midoriya, what is your quirk?" She asks, looking at the white haired man in business attire staring through the window at his daughter. His hands folded inside each other and resting behind his back.

"I can take and use quirks. I have a few in my arsenal that can affect the mind and several that can erase and replace memories. I had a thought that if I erased her memories of everything and started anew then she wouldn't have to grow up with the looming shadow over her shoulder. She's only two so there's a chance that if we raise her normally she won't remember what had happened to her and I can affect her dreams so that she wouldn't have night terrors but I'm not sure what route I should take. I believe I should read her memories before I do anything brash. If they're all terrible then I'll change them, that is if it will undo the trauma that had happened to her." Izuku explains.

"There's a high chance that won't be necessary Mr Midoriya, as for her nightmares you can help prevent those with your powers but I suggest that you coax her to move past those memories. The mind can be persuaded and at her age the brain tends to push down painful memories and even block them out on it's own. My best advice is for you to coddle and care for her as your own flesh and blood from this point further. You mentioned that you had pets and she will quickly develop an attachment towards them. I also surmise that a form of stress relief would do her well, she's too young to have any prescriptions for her mental issues that won't cause a drastic change to her growth as is." She explains which gets Izuku thinking once more.

"I have something in mind." Izuku smiles before waving to Eri who had looked up at him in the window. He turns and faces the doctor before asking one last question. "Do you think she would harbor any aggression towards her past abusers?"

"It would only be natural for her to, even at the age of a toddler she would still be mad at what had happened since then." Izuku doesn't show it but he smirks hearing this statement from the doctor as he has the perfect form of stress relief for Eri in mind.

One week Later.

"And that's how I became a dad." Izuku spoke to everyone in class A and his harem for them to stare blankly at him. "What? Do I have a hickey or something?" he says, pulling at his collar and trying and failing to look down at his neck.
