Why hasn't Carmen acknowledged Robby?

A big part of Miguel Diaz's life up to this point is his rivalry with Robby Keene (Tanner Buchanan), who's the biological son of Johnny Lawrence. In fact, their feud culminated in Robby breaking Miguel's back at the end of Season 2 upon kicking him off a balcony. As noted by u/False-Story9510 (https://www.reddit.com/r/cobrakai/comments/t37w94/its_odd_that_carmen_never_acknowledges_robby/), it's strange that Carmen Diaz hasn't confronted Johnny about his own son injuring Miguel so severely and has instead continued to date him without so much as mentioning he and Robby's relation. Other Redditors commented that they hope she has that conversation with Johnny soon and that it would be a huge missed opportunity if she doesn't.

As "Cobra Kai" Season 5 approaches, Miguel and Carmen are in a difficult spot. He left to find his biological father in Mexico City, Mexico, and Johnny has sworn to bring him home, which will surely open the door for all kinds of tense moments throughout the next batch of episodes. Nevertheless, no matter how difficult or heated these situations can get, actress Vanessa Rubio is hopeful Carmen and Miguel will make it out just fine. "As these characters evolve and grow to resolve the big questions of their lives, I can only hope that it brings them together instead of driving them further apart," she told Screen Rant (https://screenrant.com/cobra-kai-season-4-vanessa-rubio-interview/) in December of 2021.

Perhaps someday Carmen will talk to Johnny about the fact that his son seriously injured hers, and one has to wonder what will become of their relationship afterward. For their sake, one can only hope all parties involved can make amends in a genuine, healthy way.
