It's also shown numerous times that while she loves Seichi, she's far too clingy for her own good, and her violation of his personal space makes him very uncomfortable.

Seiko quickly begins emotionally abusing Seichi the minute he starts behaving independently, and starts using classic gaslighting techniques to convince him that Shigeru tripped off the cliff.

Distant Finale: The final chapter is of Seiichi as an old man living a normal life, showing that he was eventually able to overcome his trauma to the point that he has largely forgotten his mother.

Kick the Dog: When Seiko shows up for Seichi's court appearance and is asked to make a statement, she matter-of-factly tells everyone that she never really wanted to be a mother, tells the judge that she "quits" being a parent and regrets not aborting her son, and thanks Seichi "for becoming a murderer" because it gives her an excuse to walk away. She really is way too overprotective - her response to Shigeru faking tripping her son off of a cliff is to toss him off said cliff for real, which results in the poor boy suffering permanent brain damage.
