If that's the case, it's an abuse of power dynamics by an adult against a younger/less mentally developed relative.

That sounds like complete bullshit to me. Have you ever met a kid that likes their parents?

I just don't buy this whole abuse of power dynamics thing.

But ok, what do you think about incest between siblings then? Is that wrong for a legitimate reason as well?

One could always blind oneself.
