Star Trek memes and shitposts
Come on'n get your jamaharon on! There are no real rulesβjust don't break the weather control network.
Worf was great with O'Brien's kid. π€·ββοΈ
His relationship with Alexander was about what you would expect when you just find out you even had a kid and then your partner dies right in front of the two of you before you've had the slightest chance to bond, as well as the challenges of being an Autistic dad to a child with ADHD. π€·ββοΈ
Worf was as good of a father as he could have been to that whiny little shit
We saw 4 minutes of Tom Paris the father!
Real M'Benga erasure here
You're right. The artifacts on the jpeg are evidence this meme was pre-SNW. It needs an update!
Technically Data is the father of an entire species or two now.
With Data, all facts are technical
Rom inspired his son to enter into a very successful career, just probably not in the way he would have liked. Then Nog inspired Rom to change career tracks and become a station engineer, so I guess it all worked out.
The Ferengi culture being what it is/was really elevates Rom's parenting to s-tier. Pretty much as soon as he realized things could be different and he could break the cycle he does.
And Nog for sure gets the 'Best Son' award. Nog getting Rom to become an engineer lets him shine so bright he gets Leeta which leads him to becoming a Grand Nagus who is willing to try and make the Ferengi a better people.
Worf: Why would I even be considered?
Alexander: Happy Father's Day, Dad!
Worf: Ah! Who let you out of the room?! Get out of here before anyone sees you
You know you're a shit parent, when Gul Dukat is a better parent than you.... Worf...
@Lwaxana oh come on, Worf did his best with what he had
what he had
The full support and resources of star fleet and the federation?
Where's would Dr Song fit into all this?
Sarek is on there. Really. Sarek. The first one. Sarek was an awful dad to at minimum three children.
Well he did convince Kirk to go rescue his son after they shot him into a planet. That's big dad love there.
Yep, I fully agree. At the tail end of Sarek's life we learn he loved Spock. He doesn't tell or show Spock ever, which would qualify him as a terrible parent by human standards but he's a Vulcan so maybe that's not how he should be judged. What Sarek also doesn't do is end his feud with Spock which I think is a perfectly good standard on which to judge a Vulcan parent. So while I love Sarek as a character he's a bad dad.
He told his wife not to show love for Spock, even though she was allowed to openly love Burnham. That's child abuse.
Lmao. Somehow Paris with his bastardized mutant offspring qualifies him as a better dad than Worf.
Tom and B'Elanna, not Tom and Janeway.
Ohhhh, I thought comment OP was just racist against Klingons.
I will let you decide how and whether this fits in here...
When you transport the rest of the pixels, I'll let you know.
Someone is already working on it...
One pixel at a time, apparently.
Wait, is worf a bad dad? I'm not super deep in the fandom...
At one point, Worf dumps Alexander with Worfβs adopted human parents because he feels like he canβt take care of Alexander (with the stimulus being his struggle to handle his sonβs misbehavior at school), and Alexander has a really difficult time.
He's not entirely terrible in the episodes where his son appears. But Worf has been in around a dozen seasons of Star Trek (TNG, DS9, TNG Movies), and his son has been in like 3 episodes.
There's reasonable TV production reasons for this, but it's one of those oversights that feels really glaring on a second watch through.
So mathematically, Worf is the worst absent father imaginable.
In cultural context, worf was a probably a progressive dad. But his kid was even more human than he.
He tried, but he kinda failed and never went out of his way to make up for it despite having multiple opportunities. Not a bad person, just a bad father.
Also his kid was kind ofβ¦ I donβt know, special?
Iβm trying to figure out who Rileyβs kid was?
To be fair, itβs not like he purposefully planned for Alexander. He was just sort of thrust upon him and he wasnβt in a position to really adapt well.
He is not great
