The Worst Parents

Not all anime parents are like Maes Hughes.

Kushina Uzumaki- Naruto- She's not the worst parent on this list, but she's far from Mother of the Year either. Any parent who punches her child for little reason without explanation doesn't deserve children. Not to mention she pretty much decided Naruto's future for him. "Marry a girl just like me," anybody? I know they have their heartwarming moments, especially in "Road to Ninja," but it's hard to look at them without thinking about the possibility that her abuse towards Menma was most likely why he turned evil.

Maka's Mother- Soul Eater- Everyone makes Spirit out to be a terrible father, but who's really the bad parent? The adulterer or the woman who left her daughter with the adulterer?

Holland - Eureka Seven- Even though his parenting is never shown, would you really trust this guy to raise a child? With how he treated Renton the first half of the series (using him as his own personal punching bag when he has a bad day), forgive me for not suspending my disbelief.

Kogoro Mouri- Detective Conan- He screams at Conan, berates him, throws him across the room, strikes him, and exposes him to unsanitary living conditions.

Hayate's Parents- Hayate the Combat Butler- Compared to everyone else I'm going to rant about, these people are pure evil.

Misae Nohara- Crayon Shin-chan- Shin isn't the perfect child, but she handles her problems with him with the maturity of a 12-year-old. For Christ's sake, he's five! Are you really going to expect him to know everything? There was even one episode where she literally hit Shin for something she knew Hima did. I hope this woman has her children taken from her.
 
If you watch ajin, you will find many such people. It's common and anime tends to use real life instances to make the plot interesting.

I was gonna mention Burnsy's answer too. And, Lelouche's dad, Lucy Heartfilia's dad, Todoroki's dad(HeroAca), the little girl's parents from Erased. I've merely listed these from the first few anime in my anime list.

I never knew that there are that many horrible parents in anime.
I don't remember what Lucy's dad had done.

He asked Phantom Lord to destroy Fairy Tail and retrieve Lucy. He also treated her extremely poorly during her childhood, and that's why she ran away. He did turn around, but he died before Lucy could meet him again, when the time-skip happened.
I didn't know either, but I was updating the number of Kekkai Sensen episodes I've seen, and I saw this thread, so I got curious, and I was looking through my list, and thinking about the parents in each anime, and well, the number of horrible parents became too much. I only covered till 'C'.

Oh God.
I never noticed that parents are that horrible in anime.
 
Probably Goku. He's a fricken idiot lol. I haven't seen many shitty parents aside from him, although I've seen some that are subpar compared to him.

Really? Isn't he the main character of dragon ball?
I don't think any author would portray the main protagonist like that.

I'm going to disagree, we don't know how she really would have been since road to ninja was just an illusion and/or set up for plot reasons. Though she had her anger moments, Kushina was often shown to be thoughtful and caring. That's an ideal wife for anyone tbh.




I would say though worst parents goes to be Fire Lord Ozai for hurting his son and banishing him.
 


Okay. Are you able to see my signature image or any other user's signature for that matter?
If so, then go to your usercp and edit options and in thread view, change the settings.

Then it must be a http link. As we have moved to ssl, we have changed some settings. So select a signature from a secure source :D

Yes. Yes. Yes. I absolutely agree with you.
I doubt I have seen a worse parent in anime, this one sure leaves a mark.

There are worst parents, kids, men and women in anime.
There are too many abused kids

Looks like we need to do some work here. I will let Clara know about this.
I didn't realize that people are having troubles with their signatures
