Doting Parent: Difference between revisions

Typically, the '''Doting Parents''' have no interest in actually [[Meddling Parents|running their children's lives]]... after all, their superior children should be able to accomplish anything on their own. However, from time to time they may unobtrusively lend a hand and they are always open to giving advice (and are usually disappointed when their children ''don't'' come to them for help when they need it). '''Doting Parents''' also generally do not concern themselves with what their children are actually ''doing'' when out of sight, as long as when they ''do'' get to see them they are healthy and doing well.

 

 

{{examples}}

* Kurosaki Isshin from ''[[Bleach]]'' is like that about all three of his children {{spoiler|and yet lets Ichigo run off to another dimension and fight life-threatening battles without his supervision, not to mention that he lets Ichigo's shinigami partner, Rukia, move into their house. This is largely because in actuality he is a former captain-level shinigami who lost his powers and doesn't get them back until the start of the Arrancar arc, at which point he becomes a major league [[Papa Wolf]].}}

* Tsuruga Ren's father in ''[[Skip Beat!]]!'' can wax on for pages about how his son is the most wonderful child on Earth. Ren used to like it, but when he went into adolescence the pressure to stay at the same height of his father's hopes and claims cracked him, eventually leading him to leave his home country and beginning again in Japan, away from his family.
