* ''Film/AndYearAndChange'': Owen has historically been terrible at these with his son, and part of his plan to be a better person is to start taking them more seriously.

Added DiffLines:

* ''Literature/{{Slugfest}}'' : Arabella's father visits near the end of the book and is proud of her being on a flag football team. This does nothing to dampen her constant stream of anger toward him for divorcing her mom after she helped him get through college and giving Arabella and her brother's college funds to his baby with his new wife.

* ''Series/{{Castle}}'' inverts this trope, since Rick Castle is raising his daughter Alexis (or in [[ManChild his case]], [[WiseBeyondTheirYears possibly the other way around]]) and they get the occasional visit from his even more irresponsible ex-wife. (Even one of his ''other'' ex-wives, who isn't Alexis's mother, occasionally turns up to spend time with her.)

->''"I was working, sometimes two jobs, so I just wasn’t around much. I’m not making excuses—I should’ve been there, but I wasn’t. ... But now when my kids are with me, it’s just me. I’m the one who puts the band-aids on, I’m the one who rubs the tummies and shampoos the hair, holds them when they have a bad dream. Then they go back to their mother, and I realize what I'm missing."''
