Many bad dads are also bad husbands, sons, or siblings. Abraham, who is willing to sacrifice his son Isaac, also pimps his wife Sarah to Pharaoh to protect himself. Agamemnon not only sacrifices his daughter Iphigenia, he forces Clytemnestra to marry him after killing her father. And Cronus kills his own father, then eats five of his six newborn children to prevent them from doing unto him what he did to his daddy. For the story of another bad dad, spouse, son, and brother, read The Great Stork Derby, based on an actual contest in which a husband pressures his wife to have babies for cash and, fifty years later, learns the true meaning of fatherhood.
