Listen, if you tell your kid that he was an immaculate conception and that he has a very special future, chances are he's going to grow up to be the galaxy's greatest space-murderer. That Annakin was a ticking timebomb. Greedy, negligent and downright mean. Hilarious, but mean. She manipulates her children and forces her youngest to be her partner in the "Motherboy" pageant. That kid needs to be in therapy.The Waynes left their child without any kind of coping mechanism or legal guardian structure. Left to his own devices he grows up to be a superrich, utraviolent, predator of the streets. Good work, Thomas and Martha!It's easy to see why George is such a wreck. One of my favorite Seinfeld quotes wasn't applied to George, but it does work in his case: "Man, did your parents do a job on you!"

The kids of GLEE apparently don't have parents (with the exception of the sainted Kurt, of course). Occasionally, we'll get a visit from one of the parents, but c'mon, we've seen Sue Sylvester's mom more than, say, Mercedes'. (So, I watch Glee, sue me.)Oy. This one. She has her own philosophy of child-rearing and that's fine... but why go that extra mile and publicly humiliate your kids in the NYT?In it's fourth (and final) season, the TV series "Mork & Mindy" had Mork lay an egg which gave birth to Jonathan Winters (Orkans age backwards, you see)! No mother should ever wear suspenders.In the 1967 movie, "Godzilla's Son," a giant egg hatches a tiny version of Godzilla. Since the Big G is the only one of it's kind, Godzilla is a mother! To teach "Minilla" to fight, Godzilla pushes him into a fight with the giant spider, Kumunga. (hee, Kumunga.)She's a great judge on America's Best Dance Crew, but ironically, the rapper is a terrible mother.
