#anyway in this essay bruce wanted to keep his day and night life seperate but his kids had other plans

[angstandhappiness]

BAH HAH HAH

I’m a firm believer in that Bruce didn’t actually want any of his kids to involved in vigilante life at all but all of them were reckless idiots and forced his hand so he trained them and worked alongside to stop them from getting their dumb selves killed.

Clark: I know you love your kids, Bruce so why did you pull them into your Batman life where they’re constantly at risk?

Bruce: Flashback to 8 year old Dick spider climbing all over Gotham in his pajamas looking to find and have vengeance on Tony Zucco.

Flashback to Barbara, daughter of a good friend who he tried so hard to keep out of the business but who elbowed her way in with spite and fortitude.

Flashback to Jason alternating between throwing fits and the biggest puppydog pouts to be like his big brother and do some real good for the city.

Flashback to tiny Tim showing up on his doorstep telling him he’s doing his job wrong and SOMEONE has to be Robin and if Dick won’t do it then well…

Flashback to Cassandra who had been raised in fighting and death and knew no other lifestyle and trying to acclimate her to a traditional life would have done her great harm.

Flashback to Stephanie who had been vigilanting outside of his supervision to punish her criminal father and would not stop no matter what.

Flashback to Damian who also was raised in death and fighting who needed an outlet and an attitude change to channel his skills in a healthier manner.

Bruce: Bold of you to assume I had any choice in the matter.
