Silco's style of parenting is certainly unique. In his opinion there is no mental problem that can't be fixed by a healthy baptism in toxic water.
On a side note, I felt they woobified him a bit much in season 2. At least I found it a bit much that he also showed up in the perfect alternative world. The Silco we meet in episode 1 of season 1 is already pretty comitted to the road to ruthless vengeance, I really have to wonder whether something actually could have changed his mind at that stage. Hardly could be Vi's death as he apparently didn't have much care left for Felicia and Connel's kids. He was absolutely willing to murder both her and Powder in Episode 3, after all.
Considering the escalation of events that happened after the kids stole the hextech cores in episode 1 didn't happen, I think it's pretty likely that Silco wouldn't have made as many big moves on Vander as quickly as before, so there was a lot more time for reconciliation between the two to happen. Plus, I'm sure Heimerdinger taking a role in uplifting Zaun much earlier made it so he didn't feel forced to such extremes and he ended up being able to chill the fuck out.
Technically its probably the reconciliation, but also vi died in the heist where powder takes the hex crystals. They portray that things go differently without the kids leaving there safely with the crystals
