I disagree. Children should always respect and honor their parents (but, only if the parents faithfully provided for them and deserved their remembrances). Too many kids today look at "Father's Day" as being the only time to do that and stay "too busy" to appreciate the good fathers or mothers. They use that one day as an excuse for their neglectful habits, and often merely use jewcards to express any of their truly good feelings.

Every generation has its share of shitty moms and dads. And for those of us who may have had "shitty" parents (mine were not ALL bad, in fact, they taught me a lot) we have the chance to break the poopie chain.
But you are right in the regard that there is comeuppance for all who betray, abuse and neglect their own.
catch 22, if they had enough humility and intelligence to realise that they were shitty, they probably never would've been shitty in the first place. i just limit my interactions with my father, i've tried every tactic to try and make him see sense and it's a waste of time. he's a pure narcissist. i send him a single text for bday/fathers day, put up with maybe 2 phone calls a year where i just let him ramble his garbage, and see him every second xmas. it's a great test of patience, i can't add anything to the conversation without him immediately trying to talk over me. i mainly just put up with it now to make sure i get whatever crumb of inheritance is left after he dies, said crumb under great risk from his new thai wife. ugh...

It's not a strawman, it's a stereotype.

My dad sucks!
Get over it. Youre not in highschool
That’s because the millennial graduated high school 8 years ago and Dad keeps pestering him to move out of the fucking basement and go get a real job…
