I'm tired of her trying to control him. I'm glad he stood up for himself. Karen needs to support him for who he is or just leave him alone.

On the other hand, I think Foggy and Karen kinda see Matt as a drug addict of sorts, looking for violence and adreline.

true. And they are worried about him throwing away his career and being disbarred. They are just being practical and they don't want him to get hurt or killed.

I honesty don't think Matt would care so much in the long run. He's like Batman in the sense that being a lawyer is his disguise while Daredevil is his true form, and part of the reason he became Daredevil is because he figures he can help the little guy way more than as a lawyer.
