#percival is holding up society with these parent tropes honestly

[hometownrockstar]

types of parents i want to see in fiction:

autistic parent who has autistic children and its like cool

housewifedad

nonbinary parents. like this neeeeeds to happen so much more asap.

trans dad who was pregnant with his kids, doesnt matter if he transitioned after or was already a man i just want this and i want it played completely cool and normally

brooding quiet person with a tragic backstory who accidentally adopts a kid and they are their only soft spot. this already exists a lot i know but i want more of it, making it gender neutral too bc we need female characters in this trope asap. hey have u ever noticed this trope is like only ever done with a single kid like if you have more than 1 kid the angst factor disappears and youre just a normal family now i guess

ok the above trope but with multiple kids and now its a family sitcom show but the parent is still as angsty as before

really smart animal beast creature who takes care of a little kid and protects and raises them. i like this trope even tho i can literally only think of 2 examples and its the pokemon movie abt the entei and the little girl and my own ocs.

neglectful parent who ignores their kid and the kid grows up and realizes they sucked and they dont need their attention or anything and never has to do the "forgiving their abusive parent" trope ever (all the examples were of good parents but this one is for me for my catharsis. only time i ever saw this the parent ended up being forgiven/was really good the entire time n it pissed me off)
