So who's worse? Or do you have your own stupid Sci-fi family.

I'll see your Hansens and raise you Icheb's parents who turned their child into a biological weapon and sent him off to die....twice.
 
Well, the pair from Honey I Shrunk The Kids didn't exactly cover themselves in glory.

Anakin Skywalker's dad. (Yes, I know, that's kind of my point.)

How much Fantasy are we allowed in our Sci Fi? Because what happened to all the parents in Buffy The Vampire Slayer?

Captain Kirk was a pretty shitty absentee father. And Gul Dukat.

I kind of question Superman's parents. I mean, I understand it's a Jewish Jesus so emulating the Moses story is important, but they should have emigrated as a family, imo.

Tom Swift had entirely too many adventures.

How long was Boo missing in Monsters, Inc.?

I have a fair amount of disregard for Lex Luthor's parents... and him as a father, too. (I mean, really? Transplanting your brain into your own son so you don't die? Fuck you, dad.)

What do you mean by that? I've always known Superman has a LOT of parallels with the story of Jesus, intentionally I'm sure, but what do you mean when you call it a Jewish Jesus?

Also, Jesus was Jewish, so isn't Jewish Jesus like a double negative? lol

The two guys who created the character were Jews, and they drew from that. (Kal-El means "voice of god," for instance)

Most of it is well documented... lessee...

*googles*

Ah, here we go.

As much fantasy as you want!

Looks interesting. I'm going to need some links for some of these.
 
my vote goes to Worf.


dickhead sends the kid off to live with his parents even though there are a shit ton of kids on the enterprise and then disowns the kid cuz hes a pussy...
 
John and Maureen Robinson.

always letting Will go and play with creepy Dr. Zachary Smith getting into trouble with aliens all the time.
 
George and Jane Jetson, without a doubt. Letting Elroy do science experiments in a huge apartment complex; he coulda blown up and/or melted thousands of people. And Judy, letting her go out un-chaperoned with some geeky guy who might take her to Mars or Jupiter for wild sex parties with tentacled aliens.

Not to mention poor Astro, never got a real walk, just a treadmill hanging off the outside of the building. If I were their neighbors I'd call the ASPC-fricking-A on 'em.
