The Worst Parents in Media: Joyce Byers, Thanos, Susannah Fisher & More

A conversation about the worst parents in movies, TV, and media—because apparently having children does not automatically mean you should be trusted to raise them.This week on Little Miss, we’re discussing our least favorite parents in media and breaking down exactly what makes their parenting so questionable. From Joyce Byers and the ways we think she clearly favored one son while parentifying the others, to Thanos—whose parenting decisions speak for themselves—we’re revisiting some truly chaotic fictional family dynamics.We’re also talking about Susannah Fisher and the way she seemed deeply invested in her children’s love lives, along with other moms, dads, and parental figures whose boundaries—or complete lack thereof—made us question what exactly was going on in these fictional families.Who are the worst parents in TV and movies? Who gets too much grace from the audience? And which fictional children deserved a much better support system?Join us for a deeply unserious conversation about bad parenting, dysfunctional fictional families, movies, TV shows, and the parents we absolutely would not want raising us.#badparentaward #coraline #thanos #avengersinfinitywars #gomora #summeriturnedpretty #susannahfischer #jimmypesto #bobsburgers #chickenlittle #psych #tvandmovies #strangerthings #strangerthings5 #strangerthings3 #joycebyers
