Personally I disagree with killing him. the problem I have mostly is how it's just glossed over in the scheme of things. before Percy leaves camp, he is told a hero should NEVER harm mortals. what's the first thing he thinks of after finishing his quest and seeing his mum? killing a mortal. he doesn't but, gives his mother (a rational adult who should know better.) the means to do so and it's just glossed over and used as a reference later on. you would think there might be some reflection on it later on. whether or not he would have decided to do the same thing again is irrelevant. I just think the fallout from those actions should have been far greater reaching. it could have been a character defining moment where he has total control over the life and death of something evil and ultimately decides not to outright kill them. heck it could have been used as a thought buzzing in his head when he confronts Luke for the last time and let's him kill himself.
