New parents are usually as happy as can be. They look forward to raising their kids as idealized versions of themselves, or at least copies of themselves. It is not bad parenting; parents want their kids to share their cherished values and ideas, and avoid the mistakes they made growing up.
Well, that's not what happens here.
These kids ended up having their own views of how the world works. For better or worse, they don't share their parents' interests, they don't want to enter the same careers, or worst of all, they may not share their parents' political or religious views. This leads the parents to wonder, "Where did we go wrong?".
This trope is Played for Laughs as often as it's Played for Drama. Usually, neither party is shown to be to blame but rather, both share it in one way or another.
Classic set-ups include a girl with a domineering Stage Mom, or a son being forced to hunt deer in a Manly Men Can Hunt scene. In more dramatic works, a rebellious child might end up being downright criminal.
Very common in sitcoms.
Compare this to I Have No Son!. May result in Why Couldn't You Be Different?. Pretty much the attitude of the "Well Done, Son" Guy's father.
Not related to tropes such as Gone Horribly Wrong.

In Everyone Says I Love You, there is a quick exchange between Alan Alda's character and his son over political beliefs. He playfully exclaims, "How did I end up with a kid on the other end of the political spectrum? How did I fail? Steffi, get me a copy of my will... and an eraser."

That '70s Show: Red is usually disappointed at how goofy and nerdy his son is.
Eric's sister Laurie starts off as the favorite, but as the series progresses Red begins to see the strong character in Eric while becoming more and more disappointed in how the promiscuous Laurie turned out.
Interestingly, before either was born Kitty wanted a girl but wound up with the selfish and promiscuous Laurie, while Red wanted a son but wound up with the goofy and nerdy Eric, so they both wound up favoring the child of the opposite gender because they had no prior expectations to disappoint.

Captain Planet and the Planeteers: Played for Laughs in "Dirty Politics". In a possible future, Dr. Blight has a daughter, Betsi, who turns out to be essentially the opposite of her, especially regarding the titular team. Although Dr. Blight is still fond of her, she laments having somehow raised a child who is an environmentalist, and takes her frustration out on MAL, whose files on the Planeteers Betsi viewed.

Freaky Friday: Both the 1976 and 2003 versions, as well as many rip-offs utilize this trope, but also subvert it in that in the end, it's shown that the teenagers and parents weren't quite as different as initially believed.

On King of the Hill, most plots involving Hank and his son Bobby will take a turn through this trope. Most of the episodes end with Hank learning An Aesop about accepting that his son's talents and interests are different from his, then Status Quo Is God will kick in and they get to recycle the plot with a different disappointment of Bobby's. Eventually averted in the Grand Finale when Hank and Bobby bond over Bobby's talent for grilling.

Robin: Jack Drake has such a reaction to realizing his son is not who he thought he was, forbidding him from ever contacting the Waynes again or any of the friends he made through them and then mostly distancing himself from his son at home while policing his activities. Jack eventually does come around and accept Tim for who he is.

The Suite Life of Zack & Cody: Invoked in the episode "The Fairest of Them All" as a throwaway gag in which a girl named Tyreesha (the real one; as soon after this incident Cody gets Dragged into Drag entered into a child beauty pageant) angrily lets her Stage Mom know she wants to go to science camp instead of another pageant; leading to Tyreesha's mom using the trope name verbatim.

American Dad! devoted an episode on Francine and Stan figuring out what they did wrong with Hayley by cloning Steve and experimenting with parenting styles. It's eventually revealed that Francine's parenting alone would turn Steve into a lazy, slovenly, spoiled brat, whereas Stan's parenting alone would turn Steve into a cat-killing sociopath. At the end, they realize that Steve needs both of their parenting styles.

In Shaman of the Undead, this is the main line of tension between Ida and her parents. They had one girl as a "necessary minimum", expecting her to turn out to be a successful wizard like they are and get married to another well-born wizard, but she turned out to be devoid of magic and completely unwilling to settle down.

Much of the focus of We Need to Talk About Kevin (and the Film of the Book) is Eva trying to work out whether she did do anything wrong during her school-shooter son's upbringing. While Eva seems to think that there was something wrong with Kevin from the moment he was born (he seemed to spurn contact and affection from the moment he left the womb), she is also well aware that she was a bad mother, and that this may have contributed to his apparent sociopathy. The question is not answered; Eva comes to no conclusion one way or the other, and the fact that she's an Unreliable Narrator means any thoughts she does have are suspect anyway.

A Song of Ice and Fire: Robert Baratheon is a boisterous warrior who has fallen on hard times but is still well-meaning. His eldest son and heir, Joffrey, is a spoiled, sadistic psychopath who loves violence but spends his entire life sheltered at a castle. In a private moment, Robert laments to his friend Ned Stark regarding Joffrey turning out the way he did. Really makes sense since he isn't actually Robert's, after all.

In Hetalia: Axis Powers, the American Revolution is pretty much portrayed this way. Played for Drama, the scene with the rainy battlefield where a desperate England, with his army lost, attacks, disarms but still can't shoot America, before breaking down in tears, is a famous Tear Jerker. To quote America's thoughts... "You used to be... so big..."

They debate various potential reasons, from Vader's Force echo to the usefulness of Luke's training to the influence of Big Bad Supreme Leader Snoke. They try to bring him back home and for a moment he seems to respond to Han's plea but then cements himself in his grandfather's legacy by murdering his father in cold blood.

In Fairy Tail, Makarov says this word for word in the English anime when expelling Laxus (his own grandson) for endangering the lives of his fellow guildmates and trying to take over as Fairy Tail's guild master. While not outright stated in the original Japanese or the manga, the implication of Makarov's feelings is still there, especially seeing that Laxus Used to Be a Sweet Kid.

Criminal Minds: When the parents of the unsub show up (which isn't often), they usually express this sentiment (unless they're The Family That Slays Together, which shows up more often).
Special mention goes to the mother in "The Inspiration"/"The Inspired." It turns out that she'd had twins, but raising them as a single mother was too much of a challenge, so she was forced to give one up for adoption. The boy she kept, Wallace, inherited his father's mental illness and his mother's neuroticism and became a violent, misogynistic serial killer. Even before she realized the full extent of his crimes, she plotted to "switch" him with his brother, Jessie, who'd grown up to be a successful, non-criminal lawyer. In her case, it's entirely rooted in her own pride; she wants to have the perfect son to prove she's the perfect mother.
The mother of the initial bomber in "Painless" is horrified by what her son did, even ten years later. When she learns her other son may have information related to the crime, she tells the FBI to search his room, because she refuses to turn a blind eye again.

The Golden Girls: Played for drama when Sophia has a strained relationship with her son, Phil, after he got married to Angela. This in turn, has Angela acting cold towards Sophia. After Phil passes away, Angela and Sophia meet at the funeral and get into an argument over Angela owing Sophia $47 in dowries. Eventually, Sophia reveals the real reason why she is so upset; Phil was a crossdresser and she wondered if she did or say anything to him that made him crossdress and blamed herself for it. Angela assures Sophia that regardless of what Phil was, he was a good man. Sophia completely breaks down in tears.

In Sabrina Online, the same concept used in the DeviantArt comic is applied to one of the main characters - Sabrina's boyfriend.

Breaking Bad: The Pinkmans (Jesse's parents) spend pretty much all of their time embodying this trope. As Jesse's mom says to him at one point (while throwing him out of his house): "Why are you like this?".
