i mean greg is probably one of the better tv dads ive seen?? he loves his son openly and fully and is affectionate and encouraging and obviously has a strong bond with his son. he doesn’t tell him to “man up” about shit and supports him and what he does and just wants the best for him. 

he has low self-esteem and is still mourning his wife who he loved very very much and obviously cares about his son’s welfare. he has him living in a nice house even when he cant afford one (which isnt an inherent flaw either) with other guardians to look out for him when he’s working and he’s always involved in his kids life and loves him a lot. i love the gems too but that doesnt mean theyre perfect parents. 

be nice 2 greg universe
