There's still a chance for more Futurama for him to go back in time.
Dad...I am YOUR Father!
He's his own grandfather!
Perpetually Confused
Fry is his Father's Father, due to time travel. See the quote on My Own Grandpa
But Fry never abused his son. If anything, he was neglected by his own son in his role as Fry's father.
At least Peter is there for his children. With a meat cleaver, but still, he's there!

Alright: Peter Griffin Vs Bender Bending Rodriguez. Who's the worst father?
FYI: Bender's only scene with his son

Spanky Ham from Drawn Together is the worst. He make sauses from his newborn son just after the birth.

Bender. Peter might abuse his kids, but he's never given away their eternal souls to Satan.
Easy street has no parking signs.
No, Arilou. I respect all girls. I find girls beautiful in an unique way. And I mean EVERY girl. I accept girls for who they are. In fact, I think all girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice. I'm not a Straw Misogynist like Peter is. I myself didn't like those jokes he told to his coworker. Seriously. To be honest, I find Peter a HORRIBLE example around girls as well.

Hahaha, definitely Bender in that case, except his bad parenting is usually played for laughs.
Humans disturb him
Peter Griffin due to his abuse towards Meg, Chris, and Stewie. One episode depicts Stewie drawing a picture and showed it to him and Lois. After blurting out nervously that they thought it was great, once Stewie leaves the room. He and Lois were laughing at his drawing and mocking it to the point where Peter was spitting at it. It turns out Stewie didn't leave the room and was watching them with a miserable expression. Not to mention he has been shown to beat up children and blew up a children's hospital.
Yep, it would suck to have Peter as a father.
Some folks on the Internet think they're a special GIFT to the world, and others aren't. In this perspective, they're kind of right.
A better (worse?) example is when Peter threw him under the car to make Lois think she ran him over.

If Peter had the chance, he would probably sell his kid's soul to the devil as well. Don't forget, one time when the house was attacked by poltergeists and Meg was left behind, he said if they had to choose one of their kid's to die, it would be Meg. So don't think Peter is above giving away his children too.

Peter would never give his children away.
He'd insist on getting a decent market value.
Of course, he is dumb enough that it would be quite possible he'd trade them for a couple of beans.
Not magic beans, mind you, regular ones.

Wouldn't even have to tell him they were magic. Just need to be jelly beans.

You didn't pay attention to my statement. I said he would allow one of his kids to die if they were in any kind of trouble, which he tried to do. He is willing to give away his children's lives if it means risking his own ass. That's close to selling his soul to the devil.
Also, in the same episode, he kicked Meg out of the house in favor of his television. It's obvious right there that he would give his children away if he had the chance.

Eh, I'd still give it to Peter over Bender, but that probably has a lot to do with my bias against what Family Guy has become. At the very least, it seems both children are doomed to eternal torment.
I'm pretty sure Fry is his mother's father.
Belief or disbelief rests with you.
The Futurama Wikia has him as Enos Fry, and a check of the transcript has Fry saying:
Everything's gonna be alright Dad!
Okay, seriously, did the OP really expect anyone to say Homer?
"Aren't you cold, Finn?"
I don't think so, because at worst Homer is a Jerk with a Heart of Gold, while Peter's just a Jerkass.

Let's just say Peter will receive the most votes no matter which father you pit him against.

I dunno, Ra's Al-ghul stole his daughter's body.
That's gotta be some major points.

NO! This will not become a Batman thread.

Who's a worse father, Peter or The Joker?
I have a message from another time...
The joker's a father??
Fry isn't a father, so he ain't part of this discussion.
