It's not an example of that trope — it's saying that while telling someone to shut up is mean, the other things he's done are *even meaner*, making it seem nice in comparison.

* ''WebAnimation/EpithetErased'': Martin Blyndeff isn't actively ''violent'' to his kids, but the fact that his daughter Molly, who's ''twelve'', has ended up having to run a business effectively by herself, do the taxes, claw herself an education on the side, cook, clean and do everything else, while Lorelei is mostly just left to disappear into her dream worlds with Martin only showing up occasionally to get inspiration for the toys he makes, makes him [[HateSink easily the most hated person in the series]].

* Many of the parents seen in "[[YouAreGrounded Grounded]]" Website/GoAnimate videos will ground their kids for insanely long periods of time at the slightest provocation. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpvK9panYYE Starting crying over scary dreams]]? Grounded for "Triple Infinity" because you aren't allowed to have nightmares. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZKyMe4-PnA Accidentally left the faucet running at school]]? Not only do you get expelled, but you also get grounded [[SarcasmMode just because your parents love you so much]]. In a few instances, they'll even celebrate sending the kid to their room by throwing parties or going out to Chuck E. Cheese's without them.

* ''WebAnimation/AoharuMangaLibrary'': Several episodes portray Keiichi's parents as deadbeat ones who take the antagonist role.
** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AriBM_FKn5Q My Parents Forced Me to Marry the CEO's Daughter But We're Poor Farmers…]]'': Keiichi's parents are being impulsive gamblers who squander his grandfather's farm and its tools, pulled Keiichi out of college just to manage the farm, set him up to an ArrangedMarriage with a CEO's daughter named Yui while micromanaging his spending only so he can provide for their gambling addiction. Thankfully, Yui and her father are reasonable people (even if Yui started out a bit spoiled), and eventually Keiichi just flat-out disowns his parents.
** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CuLAg_PVdMw I Was a Runaway Boy with No Money and a Woman Rescued Me. But 7 Years Later, She...]]'': Keiichi's mother married another man with a daughter, Kanon. Both of them then exercise ParentalFavoritism at Keiichi's expense. Later, the father tries to buy off Nagisa's restaurant without her consent because he thinks of himself as a property salesman pro, not realizing that he was scammed. Keiichi defends Nagisa's restaurant with his own education, and even Kanon rejects them, actually preferring Keiichi's kindness and not amused with how her parents favor her at the expense of Keiichi.
** ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TW0J5gGQ1TY I Was Forced to Marry Yakuza's Daughter For Parents' Debt But She's Actually...]]'': Keiichi's parents accrued a debt with the {{Yakuza}} via gambling in the past, and now they overly depend on Keiichi to pay off the debts with his work on a diner and an ArrangedMarriage with [[MafiaPrincess the Yakuza patriarch's daughter, Nagisa]], who turns out to be hardworking on her own and falls for him for real. The parents also do not even congratulate Keiichi on his birthday. Thankfully, the Yakuza patriarch turns out to be a reasonable man and approves Keiichi and Nagisa's relationship based on mutual trust and affection. When the parents' gambling addiction and abuse of Keiichi are revealed, the patriarch is more than happy to relocate said deadbeat parents to [[PlaceWorseThanDeath a harsh working place somewhere near the seas, where the oldest worker there is in their nineties.]]

that typo turns it into another trope entirely


KarmaHoudini. CallingTheOldManOut occurs when a fed-up child retaliates with a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech. If the child [[AdoptingTheAbused gets out of the broken family and forms healthy friendships]], but reacts badly when their abusive parents show up again, well, FriendsAreChosenFamilyArent. Their new friends/family will likely be horrified/infuriated to learn what the parents dead, as [[ChildAbuseIsASpecialKindOfEvil such actions are evil]].

* ''Website/DragonCave'': Neglected dragons are the result of an egg not getting any views until close to its time of death. They are extremely rare however, and ironically they are very sought after because of their rarity (the process usually results in killing the egg instead).

* ''WebAnimation/HappyTreeFriends'': [[BumblingDad Pop]] usually gets his son Cub killed or injured due to obliviousness, but he's lapsed into this tertiary on a few occasions, including whenever he tries to be a PapaWolf. For instance, hammering a nail into Cub's face to hide it, yanking him out of a kitchen sink by tying a rope around his neck and car, intentionally breaking off his spine, etc. He killed Cub on purpose once even, in a last-ditch effort [[ItMakesSenseInContext to finish off a demon inside him]] (which unknown to him, had already been liberated by then). One early draft of an episode even had Pop intentionally setting Cub's dead body on fire to dispose of his corspe.
