My only wonder is exactly how familar with the concept of imaginary friends is Mac's mom? We know she knows about Bloo, but they never really state if she ever knew him personally or ever talked to him or did anything like that. I don't think she realized how human like he was.
Because we don't get any idea of what happens in Mac's life prior to "House of Bloo's", we can't really tell how Mac's mom interacted with Bloo or actually saw him. I honestly think she was just doing something in the stupid lines of "Best for her son".
However, we also have no idea how she would feel about imaginary friends now. People change and I can't recall anything recent saying Mac's mom still hating imaginary friends. Mac still freaks out over the fear his mom may find out, but I wonder if she would react differently now.
We've gone through quite a few episodes since "House of Bloo's" and even characters like Mr. Herriman, Wilt, Eduardo, and Mac have broken out of their character "roles" and shown new sides of themselves. I don't think its totally impossible for Mac's mom to possibly have a different view on IFs now.
