I suppose it's not really a disturbing level of possessiveness. I mean, most people don't want their partners kissing other people.
There's a fic I would love to read, if ever you do find the time. C!Stephen reaches out to his mother quite a bit in canon (getting all the troops to shout "HI, STEPHEN'S MOM!" - I know that's very tied up in r!Stephen's influence, but still), but there's no telling how much she reaches back, or how much real connection he allows. Not that she has as much to criticize as l!Stephen's mother; c!Stephen is a good Catholic boy who married and gave her grandkids, after all.
L!Stephen's father has shut him out completely, and yeah, he does a lot of trying to reconnect anyway. (I imagine him sending Father's Day cards, which always get returned unopened. And, wow, I was honestly not planning to get that depressing this evening.)
