Once Bonaparte was killed, the show set aside Diana’s heavy-handed use of immense powers. Her response to the guy that took her from Renard’s home wasn’t that unusual to me. She didn’t immediately attack him. She was confused about what he was saying about her father, asked him to take her home, and even reminded him that she said please. It was only when he refused to take her home and became verbally abusive that she took matters into her own hands.
Her response to Nick masquerading as her father is much the same. Her angry response was to realizing that she was being lied to. Which was true. Nick and her mother were lying to her. Once everything calmed down, Diana was concerned about her father and wanted to see him, but she didn’t act out when Adalind told her she couldn’t until the next day. Even when Zerstörer came into the picture, Diana reacted by looking to the adults to keep her safe instead of utilizing her powers.
I didn’t see any S6 behavior that indicated Diana needed to be suppressed, drugged, or anything else. She was often the most intelligent, well behaved person in the room rather than the petulant child who couldn’t be trusted to behave. So maybe it’s the adults who needed a lesson in healthy parenting instead.
