Fantasy-Forbidding Father | comment |
A father, mother, or guardian (these last two are less common) disapproves of their child or ward reading "fairy stories", playing fantasy or sci-fi games, sports, and even such "useless" hobbies as astronomy, boxing, and being literate. In extreme cases, anything the child likes that isn't directly and concretely tied to whatever it is their parent does for a living (or that they want them to do for a living) is seen as an utter waste. The parent may even confiscate and dispose of anything of this nature their child owns. The child may then be grounded and/or deprived of money in a bid to prevent any clandestine attempts to continue the offending hobby. If the setting is one where Don't Make Me Take My Belt Off! is likely to come into play, expect the parent to tell the child that they will have "that nonsense" beaten out of them. "Fantasy" in this trope isn't about the genre, but "fantasy" from the parent's perspective. To the Helicopter Parents, any and all of these "distractions" are a Tragic Dream waiting to happen that will ruin their child's chances at life. For narrative purposes, this is basically anything that the kid likes that'll move the plot forward via alienating them from their parent (possible later reconciliation optional but heartwarming), which puts the Fantasy-Forbidding Parent into an antagonist role, though with rare exceptions they are not a true villain. In many cases, the parent probably sees their actions as being Cruel to Be Kind by steering their child away from an "unsuitable" interest but is too close-minded or too terrified to consider that there are many valid careers and hobbies for their child and that the child should (within reason) be allowed to make their own decisions. In these cases, the parent does come around to accepting their child's interests and vocation with a little coaxing. If the kid later really hits the big time in those fields, the parent will probably shake their head wondering in astonishment how that is possible. However, with some more consideration as the parent sees their child's success with their talent, some apologies for their stubborn doubts and statements of pride are usually in order. A more sinister possibility is the dad/mom is trying to somehow make their child co-dependent or at least clip their wings so they never leave or get out from under their thumb, either forcing them to follow a family legacy or just out of sheer malice. Unfortunately, this is Truth in Television. See also "Well Done, Son" Guy and Tough Love. Might be the stern parent in a Stern Parent, Doting Parent pair. Compare Education Mama and The Killjoy. The Wet Blanket Wife is the spousal equivalent of this trope, who forces you to give up adventuring and settle into a normal boring domestic life. A close-minded Caretaker usually takes this attitude. Keep an ear out for "You Watch Too Much X." Contrast Obsessively Normal, wherein not only does the "fantasy" usually has a more direct effect on the people and the setting, but the parent trying to forbid it occasionally may escalate a bit too much in their quest. May result in Strict Parents Make Sneaky Kids. Don't confuse with the Supernatural-Proof Father (in that trope, the father resists supernatural elements that genuinely exist in the world of the story.) |

Watchmen: Dr. Manhattan's father could be seen as an example, or technically a Fantasy-Fostering Father. His son is at first eager to follow in his footsteps as a watchmaker, but he forces him to abandon this (by throwing his tools out the window of their apartment) and pursue a career as a nuclear scientist after the Atom bomb is dropped at the end of WWII. His father's reasoning was based on Einstein: what use is a watchmaker if time is an illusion? Interestingly enough, the chapter ends with Einstein's quote about how he should have become a watchmaker if he had known what his research would lead to. In the prequel miniseries Before Watchmen: Nite Owl, young Dan Dreiberg's father burns all of his Nite Owl stuff because he doesn't like the boy's obsession with the superhero. (Incidentally, mini-series writer J. Michael Straczynski had the same thing happen to him as a kid.) |

DOOM: Repercussions of Evil: John Stalvern has a flashback to when he was a child, where he tells his father about wanting to "be on the spaceship" and fight monsters. His father tells him not to, as he "will BE KILL BY DEMONS". Though this is somewhat justified, as his forbidding was more out of concern for his son's well-being. He grows up to fight monsters anyway. It doesn't end well for him. | |

Matilda: Matilda's parents not only don't understand her love of reading over watching brainless game shows and soap operas all day, but her father even goes as far as to rip to pieces a library book she'd borrowed in front of her. Then there is the scene where her mother explains to her teacher Miss Honey why she thinks being pretty is more important than education. They much prefer her brother, who is being trained to take over his father's used car place. | |

The Eyes of The Dragon: Averted. King Roland's Evil Chancellor Flagg warns him that allowing his son Peter to play with his late mother's dollhouse could turn him into a sissy. Roland, despite usually being an Extreme Doormat when it comes to Flagg, observes Peter's play and decides that it is harmless, as the fantasies he acts out tend to involve bloody battles rather than romance or other "girly" topics. | |

BoJack Horseman: BoJack's mother mocked BoJack whenever he wanted to try something new ("Football? You don't have the haunches for it!"). She only wanted him to perform "The Lollipop Song" for her dinner party friends so she'd look good, even when he didn't want to. When he became a comic actor on Horsin' Around, she belittled him constantly, believing that she wasted her life raising him only for him to become a "clown." However, in season four, she does enjoy his sitcom once she develops dementia, suggesting that her insults were a deliberate way to keep emotional distance from her son. | |

CSI: NY: The Monster of the Week in "Child's Play" turned out to be one of these. After losing his childhood friend in an accident involving a toy submarine that they bought, believing the advertisement a bit too much (the friend drowned), the man grew up and had a child of his own, whom he utterly prevented from having distractions of any kind. He was allowed no comics or toys, and even forbidden from leaving home except to go to school. His wife eventually divorced him because of this, and acknowledging the trauma had made him a monstrous parent, he decided to get payback on the man who (allegedly) made him this way by gifting the toymaker an Exploding Cigar capable of tearing his head to shreds (and which got taken by another man... the father calmly accepted going to jail in the knowledge that the accidental death and the reason it happened would probably haunt the toy man for the rest of his days). | |

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: In one of the retrievable memories, Zelda is excitedly telling Link about all the progress Hyrule has made in controlling the Guardians. Things turn tense when her father King Rhoam shows up to scold her and forbid her from spending her time learning about the machines rather than figuring out how to unlock the Sealing Power that will let her defeat Calamity Ganon. What makes Zelda especially resentful is that she has been praying at the requisite fountains and doing all manner of other things to unlock this ability, all for naught. It's implied that as she carries the Triforce of Wisdom, her father stifling her education and curiosity also stifled her power. | |

Wonder Girl: Cassie's mother is a brilliant archaeologist who puts a lot of pressure on her daughter to excel. She's overall a supporting parent but is very hesitant and strict when her daughter becomes a superhero, making sure she doesn't neglect her schoolwork. At one point, she even gains the ability to take away Cassie's powers if she needs to, making her a literal example of this trope. The two are estranged for a while when Wonder Girl is older, but eventually reconcile. | |

Psych gives us an interesting example with Henry Spencer, Shawn's dad. As a child, he wasn't fond of Shawn reading comic books, as they usually depict cops as useless in order to justify vigilante justice meted out by superheroes. More overall, Henry was a good and attentive dad to Shawn, but a lot of their experiences and bonding was shaped as exercises to train Shawn to be a cop (apparently, the Spencers have been one since at least Henry's own dad). Interestingly enough, Shawn did still want to be a cop despite his dad's Control Freak issues, but after the divorce between Mr. and Mrs. Spencer, all that resentment bubbled up and Shawn purposely committed a felony to disqualify himself from being a cop. He does put all of his training into being a private detective and uses the guise of being psychic for it. Henry is not a fan of private detectives nor psychic ones, but he is proud of the good that Shawn does, even if he'd never admit it. It's implied that things would've gone differently had Henry not been so pushy on Shawn (though the divorce was actually the decision of Shawn's mother, Henry took the blame so Shawn would not resent her, something Shawn would learn at the end of her introductory episode when she finally tells him.) | |

The Simpsons: Parodied at the end of the episode "The President Wore Pearls," where Homer shoots down all of Lisa's dreams out of laziness (since otherwise he'd have to do things like driving 45 minutes to take her to a fancy new school and getting up at 6:30 am). | |

St. Louis Blues: In this biopic, W.C. Handy, "father of the blues," is shown to have this kind of father. Handy's father really was a pastor and deeply opposed to secular music of any kind. | |

Blinded by the Light: Javed's father Malik is initially like that, even though he means well. Both had dreams of leaving home and making something of themselves elsewhere, with Malik clashing with his own father as well. Like Javed, Malik listens to Bruce Springsteen and ends up with an appreciation for him too. | |

Octopath Traveler II: Agnea's father, Garud, forbids Agnea from leaving the village and becoming a famous dancer, like her mother was. Eventually, he (reluctantly) allows her to leave after she makes enough money to show that she's serious about it, and he turns out to have a reason for not wanting Agnea to leave — while her mother did indeed make it big as a dancer, she also ended up getting sick as a result of overexerting herself and died as a result. Garud couldn't bear to see the same thing happen to his daughter. | |

Looney Tunes's companion series Merry Melodies gave us an interesting example with the short film I Love To Singa. An owl family that prided itself on having their members be masters of classical music eventually produced a son who was a natural prodigy in jazz. They attempt to teach him classical music, but he is off-key and frequently sneaks in a few bars of his favorite song, "I Love To Singa." Finally, the father kicks him out of the house, and the young boy finds a jazz competition hosted by a local amateur radio. Feeling regret at kicking him out, his parents rush to the radio station hearing his song. They get to see that he is finally happy, but thanks to Pavlovian methods, their son sees them and goes into classical instead. Rather than let his son lose, his father relents and lets his son perform as a jazz singer and dancer. So in hindsight, I Love To Singa is a deconstruction that has a happy ending: What mattered more than the family honor was the simple fact that family supports one another. | |

Stand Still, Stay Silent: Up to the beginning of the story, Tuuri had the lifelong dream of visiting a Plague Zombie ridden Forbidden Zone, while not being The Immune. While the story itself is about her finally getting the opportunity to do just that, her older brother, who had a Promotion to Parent, is shown to understandably have a few issues with the idea, both in Chapter 1 and in a flash-back pre-dating the death of their parents. | |

In Wild America, the Stouffer brothers' father wants them to work for his carburetor company and disapproves of their desire to become naturalists. He only agrees to lend them the money for their new camera when his wife offers to give them the Hawaiian vacation money she's been saving for several years instead. When the brothers return home from filming wildlife on their road trip, he tells them, "You'll work the debt off, now that you got that out of your system." Marshall eventually persuades him to let Mark and Marty follow their dream. | |

When Women Were Dragons: Alex's parents, in different ways. Her father doesn't want her to go to college to study math He would much rather she find a good husband or appropriately "feminine" job to do. Alex's mother is more encouraging of Alex's education, but she is very strict about her daughters conforming to social expectations. She strictly discourages any talk of "inappropriate" subjects, and so forbids Beatrice from expressing her inherent dragon-ness. | |

Harry Potter: The Dursley family, especially Uncle Vernon. He very specifically tries to crush the potential for magic out of Harry with all sorts of means. Harry notes that his uncle disapproves of even innocuous things like cartoons and dreams. This borders on horrifying when it's remembered that Vernon did all these magic-quashing things before Harry ever found out he was a wizard, meaning he had no idea why he was being treated this way. Another horrifying fact is that kids who have something bad happen to them associated with their magic suppress it and suffer from Power Incontinence so bad that they’re capable of killing their mothers on accident or almost blowing up Manhattan. This didn’t happen to Harry because he didn’t know he was a wizard and therefore didn’t suppress his magic whereas the other two people (Dumbledore’s sister Ariana note Implied to have been raped by some Muggle boys who caught her playing outside and attacked her when she couldn’t do the trick again and Creedence note Was adopted by a woman who hated magic and tried to, quite literally, beat it out of him from Fantastic Beasts, respectively) did know they were wizards. Uncle Vernon was playing with some serious fire without knowing it. | |

The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You: Played with by Rin's father. He noticed Rin's love of violence back when she was just an infant and tried to nip it in the bud by sheltering her from anything violent, no small feat since little Rin could associate almost anything with violence. However, while watching an older, much sweeter Rin he thinks to himself that this wasn't due to any objection to her interest in and of itself, but because he knew society would not look kindly on a girl who loves violence and he wanted to protect her from that potential heartbreak. His hope for Rin is to find someone who can accept her for who she is, which she eventually does with the Rentarou Family. | |

Arrested Development: Season Five inverts this when Tobias Funke discovers he has a long lost teenage son he is eager to raise into a crazy dreamer like himself. It gets to the point where he becomes clearly angry with his son when he tries to ask him what he wants to be when he grows up and gets practical answers (a computer scientist because he likes computers or a vet because animals make him happy) and keeps prodding until ultimately he decides his son is going to be a world-famous clown. He's a Reality Forbidding Father. | |

His parents pay her a visit and she is expecting praise for helping their son discover his true calling in life, only for them to angrily berate her and call her a bad person because they wanted him to be a hockey player instead. In the series finale, Emma disapproves of Brent going into the city to perform stand-up comedy every week, believing that at his age he should be "stuck in a rut with a wife and kids, living the Hell we all lived". Bizarrely, Oscar is actually supportive for once, key word being "for once". |

Scandal in the Spotlight: Iori Enjo's father is a wealthy and high-powered corporate executive who expects his son to succeed him in running their family's company and strongly disapproves of Iori's career as a (phenomenally successful) pop star. When Iori first joined Revance, his father declared that he would allow Iori's participation in the band only until Iori turned thirty. Since Iori was nineteen at the time and didn't expect his run as a pop star to last more than a few years, his father's edict hardly seemed important... but with Revance still going strong ten years later and the deadline looming increasingly close, Mr. Enjo has become more and more willing to resort to underhanded methods to force Iori to quit. | |

High School Musical: Troy's dad is a downplayed variant. He somewhat disapproves of Troy getting into singing, but his reaction is more toward confusion given how his son never shown any interest in it beforehand and that it is distracting him from basketball. (heck, Troy getting into it was the result of an accident). However, he doesn't do anything against Troy; ironically, it's Troy's friends (along with Gabrielle's new friends) who work to sabotage the relationship to get them back into what they perceived as what they should do. | |

Growing Up: Bobbie's father doesn't want her to take up acting because it's "girly" and people might make fun of her for being fat. He becomes accepting of her dream after her final act becomes a success with your support. Wendy's parents try discouraging her from her dream to become a horror movie makeup and VFX artist in favor of pushing engineering like them. Depending on your choices, they'll either succeed in this, making Wendy work for the space agency, or wholeheartedly support her ambition after she successfully convinces them that she'd enjoy it more. |

He and his youngest son, Sam, bump heads because Sam enjoys mundane activities like reading, homework, and playing soccer when John would rather he train to become a hunter like John and Sam's older brother, Dean. The family had a big blowout that led to years of estrangement when Sam chooses to go to college and study to be a lawyer rather than remain in the family of the business of hunting ghosts, werewolves, and other things that go bump in the night. | |

Power Rangers: Power Rangers Dino Charge: An early episode of the second season introduces us to Shelby's father, a successful, clever businessman who owns a famous chain of ice cream parlors. Throughout the episode, Shelby and her dad constantly butt heads because he disapproves of his daughter's interest in dinosaurs and paleontology and would rather want her to focus on the family's ice cream business, much to her annoyance. By the end of the episode, he comes to terms with his daughter's own aspirations, however, and even gives her a dinosaur-shaped ice cream cake to share with her team. Power Rangers Beast Morphers: Two of the Rangers have these. Mayor Adam Daniels of Coral Harbor isn't too happy about his son Devon's interest in video games and karate, feeling there's no future in it and wanting Devon to get a normal job. Devon's obsession with his two hobbies leads to his sneaking into the Grid Battleforce headquarters to use their Battle Simulator and putting him into position to witness Evox's arrival (and giving the Commander and her top scientist some warning to be on the lookout); he subsequently becomes the new Red Ranger after the original candidate is corrupted by Evox, and his skills at both interests prove vital to fighting Evox and his minions. Ultimately, Mayor Daniels leans of his son's exploits and comes to accept his son's choice. Ravi's mother, Commander Shaw of Grid Battleforce, doesn't approve of Ravi's painting hobby, feeling it's a distraction from his Ranger duties. She eventually does find out about her son's hobby, and while understandably mad that he lied to her, she admits that her anti-art stance was limiting his passion. |

The prequel, Saki Shinohayu -dawn of age- has Shino's uncle, who tells her to get over Mahjong. He even tries to sell the Mahjong set which they used to play Mahjong together with (failing because it's missing a tile) — and by 'they', this includes Shino's disappeared mom, as he believes that Mahjong will only serve to remind Shiho of her mother's absence and cause her pain. Ultimately, after seeing her participating in a tournament and enjoying herself despite not winning, he apologizes and returns the set. | |

Tower of God has a rare, positive example. Anne's decision to become a Princess of Jahad was vehemently opposed by her mother Eurasia, who saw it as nothing but an evil ploy of King Jahad. Anne disobeyed her, became a princess, and went insane when she learnt of Jahad's true designs. After the whole incident, Eurasia forbade her family from joining the Princesses of Jahad. | |

King of the Hill: This is a recurring trend, where Hank's reaction to whatever Bobby's current interest is varies somewhere between annoyance, shame, and outrage. How extreme of a Fantasy-Forbidding Father Hank is varies from episode to episode; sometimes it's just a quick sigh for the audience's amusement and sometimes it's trying to urge Bobby to stop. But when Hank is being particularly close-minded and shaming of whatever Bobby's into that week, he'll usually learn to appreciate his son and the two of them will share a tender moment (with Bobby often learning that his father wasn't so much trying to bust his chops as he was trying to protect him from becoming a target for bullies). One episode took this literally when Bobby began to get absorbed by a Fantasy book series in the B-Plot and Hank repeatedly told him to stop reading it in favor of a typical Boy's Adventure book. | |

Galaxy Angel: Mint's father Darno Blancmanche seems to be a downplayed example. While he does love his daughter, he pushed her too much into becoming his successor in running their company, to the point of denying her of any childish pleasures. It says something that for her date with Tact she ends up picking a fast food restaurant because she had only gone to one of those once in her entire life. | |

Shining Song Starnova: Nemu Akimoto’s stepmother Haruna disapproves of Nemu’s desire to become an Idol Singer, as she considers it degrading work that will tarnish their wealthy family’s reputation. In most routes, Nemu and Haruna come to an undisclosed arrangement which allows Nemu to continue being part of the Starnova idol group, but in Nemu’s route, Haruna starts conspiring with Corrupt Corporate Executive Kamijou to destroy Starnova… Or so Nemu thinks. In reality, Haruna doesn’t want Nemu to become an idol because she’s scared that Nemu has inherited her real mother’s mental illness, and doesn’t want the stress of being an idol to destroy her the way it did her mother. When Haruna sees that Mr. Producer looks after his talents and won’t exploit Nemu the way her mother was, Haruna gives Nemu her blessing and support. | |

Halloweentown: Gwen was raised as a witch by her mother Aggie, but left it behind in order to marry a human man. As such, she tried to keep her children from learning magic and following in her and Aggie's footsteps, to the point where they weren't even allowed to celebrate Halloween. She softens her approach in the sequels and accepts that her kids have become witches, though she still disapproves of Marnie going off to Witch University in Return to Halloweentown, albeit more because she's afraid of having an Empty Nest. | |

In Final Fantasy XIV, Shinto believes that Sekka lacks something she needs to be a proper swordsmith and tells her to give up on her dreams. He goes so far as to bar her from every forge in Kugane to prevent her from honing her skills. This motivates her to run away to Limsa Lominsa in hopes of learning from the famed Blacksmiths' Guild. When he visit Limsa Lominsa to appraise her progress, he continues to be disappointed in her and threatens to disown her if she doesn't give up the trade. | |

World of Warcraft: King Varian Wrynn is this regarding his son's class choice, wanting him to be a warrior like he is rather than the priest Anduin wants to be. At one point in the novel Wolfheart we literally see him thinking about how he needs to start discouraging his son from spending so much time with their religion, which is "obviously a bad influence". In another child to parent example similar to the Epic one above, Lyalia doesn't think much about her father, Lorekeeper Vaeldrin, searching Pandaria for a means of restoring the Night Elves' immortality. Vaeldrin eventually learns that the waters he had searched for only transfer life rather than prolonging it, and he ultimately uses it to revive his daughter at the cost of his own life, after lamenting that his search for immortality had caused him to lose sight of the things that made life worth living, including her. |

When Virgil offers to share a rap CD with Richie his father refuses to allow the music in his home, insisting that it encourages kids to rebel against their parents despite Virgil's reassurance that some carries a positive message. After Virgil's Reasonable Authority Figure father gives him a "The Reason You Suck" Speech for allowing his negativity to cause Richie to run away from home, he lightens up and even takes the day off work to take the boys to Comic-Con. | |

Robin: Tim's father forbids him from continuing to act as Robin or having any contact with anyone he knew from his time as a hero, even threatening Bruce with a gun when he finds out. He only figured it out when he tore Tim's room to shreds after learning the football coach didn't remember Tim trying out for football and finding the hidden compartment in Tim's closet. Though in this particular case, one can perhaps forgive a father disapproving of his son's decision to secretly become a costumed vigilante crime-fighter and battling a series of lurid psychopathic supervillains, the fact that he wouldn't let Tim get any sci-fi or fantasy-themed toys as a child is considerably less forgivable. | |

Whenever she tried to discuss these topics with him, he merely looked at her and told her that she was beautiful, implying that she should not bother with such things as she is a woman. He disowned and disinherited her when she decided to pursue poetry as a career and married a Jewish lawyer named Robert Goldstone. | |

ClanDestine: Walter disapproves of Rory and Pandora's superhero aspirations, going so far as to threaten to have them raised separately in order to negate their Wonder Twin Powers until they're adults. However, while he does think that "superhero" is an impractical job choice, he's also worried that they could get hurt — they're twelve years old at this point. There's also the risk that someone could find out about the family through the twins' activities — the last time that happened, two of the Clan died. In this case, the eventual solution is a compromise: the kids get to continue their superhero careers, but only when an adult relative can chaperone them. | |

Jem: Riot's father wouldn't allow his son to be a "sissy" who played music. He spanked him for even playing the piano and broke his guitar. Riot tried to appeal to his dad by joining the army like him; however, after he left to join a band and was given a dishonorable discharge, his dad disowned him. They have something of a reconciliation after Jem talks Mr. Llewelyn into attending a Stingers concert and seeing Riot's work for himself. He's brought around less by his son's talent (which he acknowledged but dismissed), than by the crowd: They're not the bunch of dope-smoking hippie losers he assumed they were, and they LOVED his son's music. | |

Dragon Age: Origins: Unusually averted in the Human Noble Origin. Teyrn Bryce Cousland is actually quite open to the possibility of his younger child becoming a Grey Warden; the unusual aspect is that he's okay with it even if his younger child is female, whereas most noble fathers in the setting don't allow their daughters to pursue such things. His only objection is the current timing — he and his older child are about to be gone from the castle for a considerable length of time and he needs his younger child to oversee things in their absence. If they're still interested when he comes back, he says, they can talk about it then. Then the plot happens. | |

The Owl House: Downplayed with Luz's mother Camila. While she loves Luz's creativity, she thinks Luz's obsession with fantasy is responsible for her being unable to make friends with other kids and that it makes Luz behave disruptively at school. All she wanted was for Luz to be able to temper her behavior when the situation demands it so that she can have a future. Amity's father Alador is against her competing in the Bonesborough Brawl as he did when he was younger, because he now looks back on that part of his life as a waste of his talents and doesn't want her squandering her potential (though the small smile he gives when she tells him that she wants to bring home the champion's belt like he did shows that he's touched by her looking up to his past acomplishments). |

Disney Ducks Comic Universe: Magica always wanted to become a witch, but her uncles, who raised her, tried to stop her... Because they saw her parents blowing themselves up trying to obtain the Midas' Touch and are scared magic will claim her too. The fact Magica reacted to finding out her parents' fate by guessing how to fix the spell that killed them only scared them more, to the point her uncle threw her out in the erroneous belief she'd give up soon and come back to live without magic. | |

The Enchanted Files: Teacher, rather, in Diary of a Mad Brownie / Cursed. Destiny Carhart's teacher, Ms. Lorna Kincaid, is initially a mild case, thinking children claiming to have Imaginary Friends is mostly harmless, but also considers it unhealthy at Destiny's age (she's a first-grader) and disruptive, due to Destiny insisting that Herbert have his own seat next to her, asking the Carharts to suggest that Herbert stay home from now on (when they do though, she tells them he already went back to his own home). Later though, Ms. Kincaid tries to convince Destiny that Herbert was never real, which makes Destiny cry and infuriates Angus when he overhears it. She later learns they're real, and admits that she'd reacted this way because her mother was always talking about the "fair folk" and the Enchanted Realm for years as if they were real (having heard the stories from her own mother and grandmother), but never presented any evidence beyond the stories. Lorna herself was so confused by them as a child that she thought it was bad for Destiny to believe in the same kinds of things. | |

BanG Dream!: The father of Ran Mitake, the lead vocalist, lyricist, and guitarist of Afterglow, was initially opposed to his daughter being in a band. He wasn't trying to be cruel, but he wanted her to focus on learning flower arranging so that she would be qualified to inherit the family's century-old flower-arranging school, and thought his daughter was just playing around with her childhood friends. Ran resolves to show him otherwise, and has him attend Afterglow's first live performance. Convinced that Ran is serious about her music, her father relents, and even supports the band (going so far as to buy ten copies of the band's first CD release), and Ran meets him halfway by resuming her flower arranging lessons while still performing with Afterglow. | |

Mass Effect: Garrus' father is mentioned as hating Spectres for having nearly unlimited power but very little government oversight. He apparently pulled some strings to prevent Garrus from pursuing this career after his mandatory military service was up, so he could join C-Sec like he did. In a comic focused on Garrus, he remembers his childhood, with his father teaching him to shoot. As he's defending his HQ from three gangs on Omega, he calls his father to say good-bye and tell him he was right. When asked why the rush, Garrus replies that there are too many targets. His father immediately brushes off any attempts at father-son reconciliation and goes all business on him: how many targets? what are their tactics? Then Garrus sees an N7 uniform in his scope and tell his father he'll call him back. By the third game, it becomes an aversion. Garrus mentions that they never saw eye-to-eye on things, so when Garrus sees him in person and says it's serious, his father listens. Garrus explained everything that's happened; Saren, Virmire, the Collectors, the Reapers, everything. His father doesn't believe at the start, but then he started connecting the dots and accepts it as the truth since Garrus wouldn't be making this stuff up for a joke. He even took it to the Primarch, who also listened. |

ThunderCats (2011): Claudus feels this way towards Lion-O's fascination with mythical technology in Thundera's world of Medieval Stasis. Of course, it comes in very handy once it's revealed that there are pockets of Lost Technology in the outside, and the Big Bad is invading with it. He then proceeds to realize the "trinkets" he's been repairing on and off for years are time bombs and uses them to tear through enemy tanks and allow his and his allies' escape. Of course, had Claudus known his son was tinkering with bombs without first knowing what they were, he'd have been very justified in his opinion but for entirely different reasons. | |

Star Trek: Enterprise: Inverted with Malcolm Reed, whose father wanted him to join the Royal Navy, like every man in the Reed family for generations. Malcolm chose Starfleet instead (mainly because he had aquaphobia), distancing him from his parents. |

Space Jam: A New Legacy: Lebron James started out as this to his son Dom, trying to rope him into liking basketball while being unsupportive of his computer skills. He even gave the same treatment to the Looney Tunes, forcing them to play basketball the traditional way without being 'loony'. After they got crushed halfway during the game of Calvinball and hearing Lola and Bugs say they were trying to be like him, he has a Heel Realization, becomes open to new ideas and apologizes to Dom for having been so hard on him. | |

Glee: Mike Chang's father. They temporarily disown each other when Mike refuses to quit the school musical. Sue Sylvester's eternal opposition to the club ultimately boils down to this; art and music programs can't prepare students for the harsh realities of adulthood and only gives them false hopes of showbiz success. |

Billy Elliot: Played straight then inverted. Young Billy's dad thinks his son needs to "toughen up" and sends him to boxing lessons. At first, he's enraged when he discovers the boy has been using the money to pay for dancing lessons, but his attitude undergoes a complete 180-degree turnaround once Billy proves to him that not only is the boy passionate about his chosen career, but he's also darned good at it. Also contains a moment when Billy's dad becomes what he hates most of all — a strike-breaker — just so his son will have the chance to do what he loves. | |

ChalkZone: Mr. Wilter has this opinion regarding cartoons. Though at least one episode shows that he does have a point (he gives Rudy lunch detention so that he can finish the assignment that they were given before summer vacation, which Rudy spent drawing a comic book of an adventure he had in Chalk Zone that no one in class would think actually happened.) This was the case with Mr. Wilter himself also. In one episode, when Rudy and Snap stumble upon some old drawings, we end up discovering they were created by Mr. Wilter who happily recognized him and ended up confessing that the reason he stopped drawing was because of his own father. One episode featured an art teacher named Miss Tweezer, who only liked art of "real" things and despised anything unrealistic or cartoony. |

When Jamal still joined NASC in spite of her protests, she disowned him for disobeying her wishes and declared that he was dead to her. | |

Tangled: The Series: Cassandra's father, who's Captain of the Royal Guard, doesn't let Cassandra join the Guard, which is her life dream. He claims that Cassandra "is not ready" for it, though it more probably is because he's afraid of the (very real) chance she might get hurt or even killed since it is a relatively dangerous job. Subverted at the end of Season 1 when the Captain is wounded and can't fight himself and he finally realizes Cassandra is the person most capable of leading the guards now. | |

My Hero Academia: Used in a very dark manner in Shigaraki's backstory. When he was a boy, going by the name Tenko, he was fascinated by heroes and wanted to be one. Unfortunately, his father, Kotaro, had become jaded and bitter about heroes due to believing his mother, a hero, abandoned him as a child for no good reason, unaware she did it for his own safety. As such, Kotaro would harshly punish Tenko for anything hero-related. This caused Tenko to develop a deep hatred for his father, and when Decay Quirk manifested, he used it to deliberately murder him and destroy his house. While Izuku's mother has always tried to be supportive (and considers her greatest failure to be when she didn't properly encourage him when he had a moment of despair), when the school asks permission to move Izuku into dorms, she refuses. She says that she wants to pull him out of U.A. so that he can go to a normal school, even if that means he can never be a hero. Unlike most examples, she is portrayed as being completely justified. The school has been attacked multiple times since Izuku started going there, he was involved in a kidnapping attempt and a fight that leveled several city blocks, and every time he uses his power he shatters at least one bone. All Might is only able to convince her to allow it by getting on his hands and knees and promising to be a better teacher while letting her know how much faith he has in Izuku and how he is willing to lay down his own life to protect him. |

Red Vox's "Job in the City" is a sarcastic account of a parent who is urging their child to get a "real job" in the city. The parent openly mocks how their child's aspirations didn't turn out to be what they expected, how they're going to abandon fun with their friends to slave their days away for pennies, and even try to guilt their child by bringing up everything they've done for them. | |

Super 8: Deputy Jackson Lamb felt his son helping with the costuming and makeup of friend's film hobby was something to be outgrown and was intending on sending his son to a baseball camp for maladjusted kids. Eventually, after a lot of outside pressure piled up on him (and his son befriended the daughter of the man he blamed for his wife's death) he forbade him from associating with them again. Most of this was due to him being emotionally disconnected from his son after his wife's death. | |

Case Closed: The "Luxury Liner Serial Murder Case" has a fantasy-forbidding grandfather as the first victim. Gozo Hatamoto, the leader of an immensely rich Big, Screwed-Up Family, is an all-around jerk but especially belittles his grandson Ichiro, a promising painter and artist. Heck, he's even shown smashing one of Ichiro's works in a flashback, and openly badmouths the guy in front of Conan and the Mouris. Naturally, Ichiro is the killer: when he couldn't take the man's abuse anymore, he ended up grabbing a nearby knife and stabbing him to death. He has two reasons for it, actually: not only Gozo disapproved of his desires, but he wouldn't allow Ichiro to marry his cousin Natsue, Gozo's favorite relative and only heir. In fact, immediately after this refusal, Gozo had granted Natsue's boyfriend Takashi his permission to marry her; the wedding had occurred just days before Gozo's murder. | |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Randyll Tarly is a particularly vicious example, who attempts to jolt his soft, overweight, book-loving son Samwell away from reading and into manlier pursuits by any means necessary. He even goes as far as chaining him to a wall for three days for the horrible crime of wanting to be a maester. When his efforts don't pay off, he gives Sam the choice of forsaking his birthright and being packed off to the Wall or be involved in a "hunting accident". While Ned Stark loves his daughter, Arya, and even appoints a tutor to teach her basic swordsmanship, Ned never sees it as more than a hobby and doesn't quite understand why Arya takes it as seriously as she does. He still expects that when she grows up she would become a Proper Lady and have an Arranged Marriage. Arya bluntly tells him, "That's not me!" and it's the only point on which she disagrees with him. Tywin Lannister. When the young Tyrion would do somersaults and earn applause and laughter (even from Cersei), Tywin mocked him for acting a dwarf. When Tyrion asked his father for permission to visit the Free Cities, his father told him that he won't let his embarrassing son humiliate the family abroad. Tywin also won't stop grooming Jaime as his heir despite him only wanting to be a Kingsguard. |

Behind the Waterfall: Aunt Sam is completely opposed to any sort of fantasy or imagination, going so far as to declare a perfect date ruined because the man she was with said they should make a wish after seeing a shooting star. Afterwards, she claims said man was a fool with his head in the clouds. | |

Psychonauts: Raz's father Augustus Aquato, who is opposed to him learning to use his psychic powers. He's only trying to protect Raz from his family's enemies by keeping him out of the world of psychics, and is actually a psychic himself. While Raz sees his father's constant acrobatic training as oppressive, those skills turn out to be massively useful in psychonaut work. It is heavily implied that this was actually Raz's father's reasoning behind the training and Raz was misinterpreting things. When Raz's father meets Raz's mental image of him, he's visibly hurt. | |

Malus Sceleris, a minor darklord from the Ravenloft setting, was brought up by his strict and demanding druid father to do nothing but tend the forest. Furious at being repeatedly denied any aspirations toward a more civilized or independent life, Malus eventually murdered his father with disease-contaminated blankets. | |

Saki: Nodoka's father doesn't think much of Mahjong, saying that it's purely a game of luck, that training camps are a waste of time, and that the friends Nodoka makes through it won't be of any use in a "hick town" like where she lives. He seems to tolerate her playing mahjong as long as it doesn't interfere with anything more important, and reluctantly decides to "consider" letting her stay where she is if she wins the nationals, though. The prequel, Saki Shinohayu -dawn of age- has Shino's uncle, who tells her to get over Mahjong. He even tries to sell the Mahjong set which they used to play Mahjong together with (failing because it's missing a tile) — and by 'they', this includes Shino's disappeared mom, as he believes that Mahjong will only serve to remind Shiho of her mother's absence and cause her pain. Ultimately, after seeing her participating in a tournament and enjoying herself despite not winning, he apologizes and returns the set. |

Courage the Cowardly Dog: In the Season 4 episode "A Beaver's Tale", a beaver wanted to be a musician, but his father wanted him to be a construction worker like him and so destroyed his bongos and enrolled him in construction school. While this trope is portrayed as harsh in many cases, this one was downright lethal as the dam the beaver would build caused the farm to flood and nearly drowned Eustace and Muriel. | |

Kaze no Sh�jo Emily: Emily's aunt Elizabeth says that Emily can never be a writer, despite the fact that her work is praised by newspapers and her school. Teddy's mother won't let him become an artist and implores him to stay at home instead. It takes a lot of convincing from Emily and Ilse to let him go, and Teddy eventually becomes a world famous artist after studying in Paris. Perry's aunt says that he is to become a workhand, and forget his dreams of going to school and getting an education. She eventually relents. An odd case with Ilse as all she wants is to know more about her mother, but her father won't tell her anything. |

Bernie's parents, Clarence and Beatrice, are mild-mannered mice who refuse to let her join the Mouse Watch at first, but finally realize how important it is to her and change their minds. Their initial reluctance is understandable, since they've already lost one child and Bernie is pretty reckless. | |

To do this, he recruits rival guild Phantom Lord to retrieve her, but it inadvertently leads to a guild war between it and Fairy Tail one year later. Lucy, however, has other ideas when the guild war is over. | |

Godzilla vs. Kong: Mark Russell shows hints of this towards Madison when he's dismissing her efforts to talk some sense into him about Godzilla's rampage, telling her she should be in school rather than getting involved with any Titan business, although it should be noted he's also motivated by fatherly protective instinct due to the mortal occupational hazard that getting involved with Titans entails (having already sort-of led to the deaths of the rest of their family). The novelization's Adaptation Expansion is more explicit about this before Godzilla attacks, showing Mark as become this to Madison since gaining custody of her; projecting his own expectations of a normal, Titan-free life being ideal onto Madison, and making little effort to see his Jumped at the Call daughter's side of it. | |

A Little Princess (1995): As in the book, the power of storytelling is a major theme, but Miss Minchin's opposition to it is all the more pronounced in the film. In the book, she flatters all of Sara's tendencies, including her imagination, until the girl falls from grace. In the film, she is outraged from the start at Sara's flights of fancy and just gets all the more enraged when she finds that Sara's imagination has survived the reversal of fortune. Minchin believes in the girls learning to be 'productive and useful' where the story shows how Sara's imagination is her last and best weapon against degradation and despair. | |

The Secret of Kells has the Abbot and uncle to Brendan, who is (reasonably) worried about a Viking invasion and wants the entire abbey to focus all of its energy into building a wall. He looks down on every creative endeavor Brendan has, and finally locks him in after he goes into the woods too many times and works on illuminated manuscripts. Interestingly for this trope, he comes to regret his decision immensely since the wall does little to stop the Vikings and he believes Brendan to have been killed. He spends years living in misery over the regret. Early character designs even had him as the main antagonist. | |

Karma in Retrograde: Touya always wanted to join U.A.'s hero course. But his father Endeavor barred Touya from the exam and forced him into general studies to preserve his own ego. He also wouldn't let Touya use the Todoroki name, making Touya use his mother's maiden name instead. Because of this, Touya wasn't able to get the supervision he needed to develop his Quirk safely, leading to the "Quirk-related incident" that made him drop out of U.A. This began Touya's downward spiral that turned him into Dabi. | |

Digimon Adventure 02: It's revealed that as children, Iori's father Hiroki and Oikawa were best friends who bonded over their ability to contact the Digital World through Hiroki's game console. Iori's grandfather, unaware that the Digital World was real, thought this was an unrealistic obsession and ordered the boys to stop discussing it in his home, essentially putting an end to their connection to the Digital World. It did not deter the boys, who dreamed of going there one day even in adulthood. | |

Child of the Storm: In the sequel, Carol's father is revealed to be a downplayed version of this; he doesn't stop her playing sports, and generally being a tomboy, despite his desire for her to be a Proper Lady who'll Stay in the Kitchen (which in turn causes his daughter to hide her girly streak because she won't give an inch). However, this isn't so much due to grudging tolerance as the fact that he's terrified of his mother-in-law and brother-in-law, who wholeheartedly support her. He's more successful with his second child, Stevie, who's quite quiet and a budding artist, when his father wants him to be a rambunctious All American Boy like his youngest child, Joe Junior, dismissing his artistic talents as "girl's stuff" and encouraging his youngest son to do the same. It is described icily by his mother-in-law as "a psychological death of a thousand cuts." | |

He only showed his son approval when it came to his scientific endeavors. He also warns his son not to get into the "useless science" of geology, like Ivo's grandfather Gerald. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh!: A flashback reveals that Gozaburo asked his adopted son Seto what he would do if he was in charge of Kaiba Corp. Kaiba says that he wants to make Kaibaland (which is very much like Disneyland) for kids to enjoy. However, Gozaburo is an Arms Dealer, so he is completely unable to comprehend such a thing. So he decided to take away Kaiba's toys. Considering that Gozaburo was very abusive towards Seto at least, this would indicate that he simply wanted to keep Kaiba under his thumb. That Kaiba eventually overthrows him is Laser-Guided Karma, that he would eventually build Kaibaland and it was successful is desecrating the grave of somebody who deserved it | |

Scarlet Lady: Parodied in the series' take on "The Pharaoh". Jalil sees his father as a stuffed-shirt who denies the massive breakthroughs he's made in Egyptology. In reality, Jalil's a Know-Nothing Know-It-All who takes significant liberties with the material, and his interpretation of the region's history and gods is derided by his sister Alix as "bad fanfic". Then there's the matter of what, precisely, his forbidden fantasies entail... | |

Ensemble Stars!: Both Souma and Kaoru's parents disapproved of them going to Yumenosaki and training as an idol, wanting them to Follow In Their Footsteps. In Souma's case, he came out of sincere passion, and it's only after Kuro, Keito, and even Anzu visit with them multiple times that they seem to accept it. (And the broader family still very much looks down on him for it.) For Kaoru, these three years were meant to be his last of freedom before he's expected to join the family business, so he intended on just lazing around and enjoying himself before then, but eventually comes to realise he does actually like being an idol. Though they deal with a similar issue, they clash due to their totally different ways of dealing with it: Souma tries to be absolutely perfect, and a model kid in every way other than being an idol, while Kaoru leans into his image as a slacker as a way of owning and controlling it. | |

Her father in particular, though genuinely concerned for his daughter's life, has no respect for her career choices or her responsibility, and he has a highly dated and traditional mindset in terms of gender roles and what he thinks Eve should be aspiring towards. Eve's mother is less dogmatic but doesn't exactly disagree with what her husband says. | |

Tangled: Mother Gothel kept Rapunzel's desire to leave the tower she was living/prisoner in in check for most of her life by a combination of belittling her and telling terrifying tales of the outside. In this variation, however, Gothel has no interest in protecting Rapunzel's feelings or well-being, and keeping her in the tower is directly related to Gothel's own gain. This is reinforced by Gothel by attempting to limit her imagination; the only books in the tower are Botany, Geology, and Cooking, which Rapunzel has read hundreds of times before, two of which are fairly useless to her as she never goes outside and one can directly benefit Gothel. | |

School of Rock: Zach's dad forbids him from playing rock music and insists on him only playing assigned classical guitar pieces, which doesn't exactly make sense as part of learning classical guitar is all the possible styles and genres you can play in. | |

He goes as far as burning one of the books despite the fact that it belonged to the school, he also disapproved of him going to school because he felt it interfered with his farming, the boy wanted to be a teacher instead of a farmer; the boy's teacher takes the father to court because he pulled his son from the school and also because he assaulted him. Eventually the teacher is able to convince the father to allow the boy to go back to school and let him be what he wants when he grows up. | |

Pokémon Rusty: Rusty's parents want him to work at their deli before he could "go to college and get a real job" as they consider Pokemon trainers little more than "pet owners". Adding to that, Rusty's father doesn't seem to like Pokemon in general, he refers to them as "monsters", and dislikes Rusty's disinterest in their unmarked home of Beige Town. Rusty's Pokemon actually agree he should stay at the deli, but for different reasons. | |

The Neverending Story: Played straight in the film adaptation — Bastian's father in the opening scene tells his son to get his head out of the clouds because he's failing in school as a result. In the end, if not for Bastian's vivid imagination Fantasia would have been destroyed forever. | |

Ratatouille: Remy's father, Django, discourages Remy from wanting to become a chef, thinking that it's a preposterous dream for a rat to have, speaking that he doesn't approve of how Remy seems more human than rat at times. Granted, the only reason for this is because he's afraid that if the humans find out, it'll most likely get disgusted and have Remy killed for going near them in the first place. But in the end, he supports Remy's dream, bringing the entire family to help him cook and soon they have their own restaurant business. The film does prove him partially right when a major factor of the film's Bittersweet Ending is people discovering that there's rats in the kitchen of Gusteau's and ordering the restaurant to shut down as an assumed health hazard. | |

The Little Mermaid has King Triton who doesn't want Ariel going to the surface or interacting with humans, when he discovers her collection of scavenged human objects he destroys it. This is revealed in the prequel movie to be due to the fact that he actually used to like visiting the surface with his family himself, but a pirate boat crushed his wife (Ariel's mother) Athena to death when she was trying to retrieve a music box he'd given her causing him to hate humans (and for some time prior to the first film, music). The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea shows that after a villain threatens Ariel's baby daughter Melody's life then by the time Melody grows to a 12 year old it's Ariel who has grown to pick up some of her father's traits, forbidding Melody from swimming in the sea and having a sea wall built around the castle to try and stop her. |

Dragonriders of Pern: Yanus, Menolly's father in the Harper Hall Trilogy, is this way. Because centuries-old cultural tradition holds that women could not become Harpers, Menolly's musical talent inconveniences and embarrasses him. She disgraces him and his Hold simply by existing. He once beats her with a belt across her back for playing one measure of her own creation when she's supposed to be playing a traditional ballad. (Fridge Brilliance as he must have had a superb ear himself to be able to recognize that. His own upbringing must have been similar.) When she runs away and becomes the personal apprentice of the MasterHarper, her parents continue to ignore her existence; even after the rules are changed and she is elevated to the position of MasterComposer, her brother notes that their only comments are thinly-veiled references to ungrateful children. Her mother was no better; after Menolly slices the palm of her hand while gutting a fish with a particularly toxic flesh she deliberately allows the hand to heal back wrong so she'd give up her efforts to play instruments and even silences her when she tries to sing along with their newly assigned harper. |

In Voltes V, when Prince Gohl tells his father that slavery is draconian and the Hornless Boazanians deserve to be free like their Horned Counterparts, his father reacts by punching him. Gohl never brings it up ever again. Until his secret as a Hornless Boazanian is outed, and he leads a slave revolt while Made a Slave. | |
