Haruka turns this right around on her, calling her out for being such a ControlFreak and trying to trap her grandson in a toxic environment.

** Chapter 22 has Adrien calling out his father of his ControlFreak tendencies, particularly in trying to get Adrien to break up with Marinette so he can get him engaged with Kagami along with his lack fo communications of why he has to be seperated from his cousin Felix and his aunt Amelie. He also calls him out of his {{Hypocrit|e}}ical disapproval of Marinette from being of "lower class" when Gabriel started as a fry-cook and seperated himself from his parents.

He's not exactly pleased about the knowledge that Ollie had never made effort to find him, and while Ollie braces for the chewing out...

* ''Fanfic/GuardiansWizardsAndKungFuFighters'': When reunited with his long thought dead father, Caleb's first reaction is to break his nose. When Julian recovers from that, Caleb then chews him out for the BlackAndWhiteMorality he forced the Rebellion to run on and that he impressed on the younger generation, nearly driving Caleb to becoming a KnightTemplar [[spoiler:and succeeding in doing so to Aldarn]]. Additionally, he also brings up how disgusted he was to learn about how Julian let [[TokenEvilTeammate monsters like Rhouglar and Tharquin into the Rebellion]], and about [[DarkSecret what he did at Carhaiz]], ultimately making it clear that he no longer respects his father and will no longer let him have any authority in the Rebellion.

* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10908225/1/DAUGHTER DAUGHTER]]'' has a simple but effective calling out scene between Kuvira and her foster/adopted mother Suyin. Kuvira calls out Suyin for not treating her enough like a daughter, which strengthened her abandonment issues:

* ''Fanfic/KaraOfRokyn'': During a heated argument, [[ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} Kara]] finally tells [[Franchise/{{Superman}} her cousin]] exactly how she feels about having been dumped into an orphanage when she was fifteen by her only living relative and then forced to hide her powers for months. Kal fires back she is editing facts out to make his actions look worse than they were. At the end, Kal admits he was also afraid of her getting hurt by his enemies when her existence became public, and Kara forgives him.

* In the ''WesternAnimation/OneHundredAndOneDalmatianStreet'' fanfic ''[[https://www.wattpad.com/story/292855701-i-am-a-de-vil I AM A DE VIL]]'', Dylan calls his stepfather, Doug out after overhearing Doug saying harsh words about Dylan. Dylan is very upset and decides to runaway from home.

* ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged'' has been building up one from Gohan to [[ParentalNeglect Goku]] for ''years'' and it has boiled to the surface a few times, like when Gohan flips out after he finds out Goku got bodyswapped with Ginyu and lets out his pent rage on Ginyu, whiles the latter's in his father's body. The Abridged Movie of ''[[Anime/DragonBallZSuperAndroid13 Super Android 13]]'' also brings this up. But it all ''finally'' comes to a head in part of two of the finale for the ''Cell Saga'', when Gohan decides to make [[BigBad Cell]] suffer instead of just annihilating him while he has the chance, Goku tries to tell ''him'' to [[ParentalHypocrisy stop messing around with the villain and just end it.]] [[spoiler:[[NiceJobBreakingItHero Unfortunately]], Gohan ''really'' should have listened to Goku this time around.]]

* ''Fanfic/UsAndThem'': When [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII President Shinra]] comes to "rescue" his son from AVALANCHE, Rufus gives hims a scathing rebuke and appraisal of his deficiencies and refusal to face facts, saying he'd rather work with AVALANCHE, which has people who are actually competent.

* In ''Fanfic/{{The Royal Reunion}}'', Anna calls out her parents after being reunited with them after three years. She vents out all her rage at the isolation her and her sister felt due to their parents separating them for over a decade. Anna gets equally mad about how her parents' words caused Elsa to doubt herself growing up.
* In the fifteenth chapter of ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10400485/1/Stranded Stranded]]'', when Anna and Elsa reunite with their parents in the same island they're trapped on, Anna's first response after meeting them is to call them out for ruining both her and Elsa's childhood, especially the latter and also accusing them of causing the events of ''Frozen'' to have happened in the first place. Anna goes as far as to say that she preferred her sister over her parents, although they took it too literally and assumed that Anna didn't love them anymore, causing them to run away in tears, which made Anna realize she took it a bit too far.

* In the [[ForWantOfANail "Regulus Lives AU"]] fic, ''[[Fanfic/TheBlackSheepDogSeries Black Mask]]'', Sirius repeatedly calls out Orion for his numerous flaws (often unfairly), but it is most poignant during their explosive argument that follows Sirius's botched attempt at infiltrating the Malfoy Manor as a part of his Order mission. He berates his father, among other things, for being wilfully ignorant about the on-going war against Voldemort, for neglecting Regulus and indirectly pushing him into the ranks of the Death Eaters in a desperate attempt to win his parents' attention, and for trying to force the family's bigoted and narrow-minded ideals on Sirius. Although Sirius himself is not portrayed as being completely in the right during that instance (even Dumbledore thinks that he needs to apologize to Orion for some of the things he said), Orion took his son's words to heart, and puts more effort to be more understanding towards his family (and the rest of the world) from then on.

* ''Fanfic/OhRhonda'' has Tucker confront his father for being incredibly overcompetitive, pointing how this already ruined his marriage.

* [=TheMightyOz=]'s ''[[http://archiveofourown.org/works/569742/chapters/1020213 Nine Lives One Love]]'' gives a view of human Meulin and her painful relationship with her parents. In a few chapters, she inwardly states how awful her parents are for leaving her and her little sister, in this case Nepeta, alone for years without a word. Seeing as [[spoiler:they are now both dead for unknown reasons]], Meulin never got the chance to actually say anything to their face.

* In ''Fanfic/CellarSecrets'', Satsuki does this to a mentally-ill and interned Ragyou.

* From ''Webcomic/KillLaKillAU'', Ragyo does this to her [[AbusiveParents abusive mother]], Youko, on her deathbed, calling her out for her out for how she's treated her when she was child and for what she's done to their family in [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech speech]] near reminiscent to Meg's speech to Lois.

** In ''RUNNING AMOK'', Adrien learns that his father is Hawk Moth after the supervillain tries to mold Lila into a replacement for the ailing Nathalie. While Gabriel defends himself by claiming his love for Emilie overrides all else, Adrien calls out just how [[ItsAllAboutMe self-centered]] his motive actually is. He doesn't care about what Emilie would want, how many innocents are hurt or what might get sacrificed so long as HE gets what he wants in the end.

'''Adrien''': You don’t treat me like your son. You treat me like your property. You're doing this because you think you can use this to make me sit and stay. You thought you could use Marinette to hurt me. You thought that would make me come back to you, right? That I could be your puppet again? I will not disrespect you or your name in public, and I'll follow your schedules, but you don't pull my strings anymore. Who I spend my time with, that's up to me.
* In ''[[Fanfic/PenumbraMiraculousLadybug Penumbra]]'', Gabriel is such an AbusiveParent that he covered up the fact his son was [[spoiler:sexually assaulted]], refusing to let him attend therapy and telling him to "get over it." Adrien eventually snaps at him that Emilie was the only one who actually raised him, wondering if his mother left due to Gabriel being such a controlling {{Jerkass}}.

* Happens in the sixth flashback chapter ([[{{Doorstopper}} forty-sixth overall]]) of ''Fanfic/TheTwilightChild'', when the main character finally snaps at her mother. Neither of them were on a good basis with each other anyway, but from thereon out neither speaks to each other until the very end of the story. Even worse since the mother is actually trying to get on with her daughter. The name of this person? [[spoiler:Twilight Sparkle.]]

* ''Naruto: Asunder'' has both parents survive the Nine-Tails assault (via [[spoiler:the Fourth putting himself in a form of statis until his spirit is returned to his body, while Kushina was sent back to Whirlpool to set it up as a Plan B safe haven]]). Naruto acknowledges ''why'' they sealed the Kyuubi into him, but rejects their attempts to justify their actions, stating that they left him to have a miserable life in the village, ultimately stating that "It doesn't matter if you're back. I made it fine without you and still don't need you. Don't bother me again.". Even at the end of the story, Naruto never forgives them but extends a "I don't completely hate your guts" gesture.
* In ''Webcomic/OrangeLemonsSanninSwap'', Neji confronts his Uncle Hiashi over how he's not only upheld the divide between the Main and Branch Houses of the Hyuuga, but exploited that to [[AbusiveParents rule his daughters through fear]]. Rather than loving his own children unconditionally, he forced them to fight over his fickle favor, knowing that whichever one didn't become the heiress would be branded with the Caged Seal and shunted into the Branch to be abused and mistreated alongside their cousin Neji and all the rest. While Hiashi expressed remorse over how the system cost him the life of his own twin brother, he has done ''nothing'' to set things right; his 'regret' wasn't enough to spur him to even ''try'' changing anything, too comfortable in his current position and too willing to torture his own daughters to uphold it.

** A milder example occurs between Kakashi and Edo Tensei!Sakumo. While Kakashi had more or less come to terms with his father's suicide and why he did it, deep down he was still bitter at the fact his father had left him to fend off by himself when he was still a child. However, telling him that is enough for Kakashi to forgive him, which gives Sakumo the closure to be released from the Edo Tensei.
* ''Fanfic/WarOfTheBiju'': After learning the truth about Yashamaru and his mother, Gaara is much harder on his father than he was in canon, chiding Rasa for his terrible leadership in relation to his downright ''atrocious'' parenting abilities. While he still ends up forgiving him like he did in canon, his forgiveness is treated more as something he can't deny his father ''in spite of'' everything that has happened between them. To Rasa's credit, he admits that Gaara is right, and hopes they can start over when Gaara eventually joins the pure world permanently himself.

* ''Manga/Evangelion303'': In chapter 10, Gendo meets his son for first time after ten years... and he starts lecturing him about his neglected duties and [[AlwaysSaveTheGirl being more worried about a comatose]], [[FieryRedhead pretty girl]] [[AlwaysSaveTheGirl than about every one else in the world]]. Naturally, Shinji was less than impressed:

** Shinji averts this. He is in his thirties when his father comes back from Instrumentality, and he stopped caring for Gendo and his abusive behavior long ago, so he doesn't bother call him out.

** The second time happened after the battle, when Shinji wanted to discuss the terms of his job:

* ''Fanfic/ScarTissue'': During an accidental meeting in an elevator Shinji finally calls his father out. When Gendo starts lecturing him about his health, his language or his relationship with Asuka, Shinji says it is none of his business, especially after how he has treated him. When Gendo presses the Asuka's issue Shinji finally explodes, punches him and tells Gendo will speak about Asuka respectfully, using her name... or else.

* {{Downplayed}} in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13622375/1/ For as Long as We Have]]''. Ash isn't particularly thrilled to see his father after a twenty-year absence from his life, and only agrees to do so at Delia's request. However, when Ash's father reveals he left because he learned he had a terminal disease and feared Ash may have inherited it, Ash finds himself more sympathetic, and only gets mad because his father just came to clear his loose ends, as if resigning himself to die, rather than trying to live whatever time he has left and ''be'' his father.

'''Eclipsa:''' "Let me tell you why, mother: because you hate monsters more then you care about your own child. You LOVE war far more than you ever LOVED ME! I always knew that! B-But when you decided to sell me to that fucker, just so you could continue on killing, I realized that MY happiness NEVER really mattered to you!

** Celebrimbor continuously called his father out on everything that he did -genocide, kidnapping, conspiring against his own relatives, helping his brother force a woman into marriage (that according elvish laws is a form of rape)-, but Curufin never listened. Finally Celebrimbor got fed up with it and disowned his own father.
** {{Subverted}} with Finrod and Finarfin. Before parting ways they had a very long, heated argument during which they got mad with each other and both started to fling insults and accusations. Later Finrod regretted it because his father had done nothing to deserve that treatment (and Finarfin also rued his own words). Their relationship got uneasy for a while until they finally talked about it and apologized to each other.

'''Gohan:''' But '''WHAT?''' ''YOU'RE'' gonna give me advice now? Let me guess: I should ''let him go'' so he'll be an even '''BETTER''' fight later! Or maybe I should let him power up to 100% so I can teach him '''HUMILITY!''' Wait! I know! I should throw him a '''GODDAMN''' senzu bean and let YOU FIGHT '''HIM!'''\\
'''Goku:''' I... see what you're getting at Gohan...\\
'''Gohan:''' Then shut up and put on your poncho... you're in the splash zone...

When the Stennis failed the test, Admiral [=McGee=] [[MoralEventHorizon secretly arranged to have some of his men beat Tim savagely.]] Since Lt. Mane, the lead assailant then committed suicide and the others said they were following Mane's orders, there was no direct connection to the Admiral, who looked like [[KarmaHoudini he was getting off scot free]]. Later, when Tim's sister Sarah saw what had happened to her brother, she contacted the Admiral by phone and confronted him. Realizing that her father really did try to have Tim killed, Sarah announced her intention to publicly accuse him of abusing her as a child (he never beat anyone but she was more than prepared to lie about it, knowing that Abby would happily manufacture any evidence she needed to prove abuse), unless he immediately resigned his commission, the only thing that he truly valued in the world. She concluded by effectively banishing him from her life for good.

* In ''Fanfic/TheChildOfLove'', Shinji calls Gendo out on lying about destroying all Yui's pictures and then Shinji says after everything Gendo has done to him and his family he wants nothing of him.

-->'''Asuka:''' "Was there a single day in your entire god damn life that you loved me? You're my father! I haven't seen you in ten years, and we're-- What are we even talking about here?! This is just polite nice-to-meet-you bullshit! You haven't been listening to single word I've been saying! You want to know about my life, huh?! Why, so you have some interesting trivia to tell your pals over drinks?! 'My darling daughter this' and 'my beautiful girl that'. You don't mean any of it! You don't care! If you cared it wouldn't have taken us ten fucking years to have this conversation!"

* ''Fanfic/IWillNotBow'': In its sequel ''Blazing Generations'', Akane's StageMom only ever thinks about how to promote her career as the IdolSinger Akimi, to the extent that she leaks information on where Akane's attending school to the {{paparazzi}}, and is determined to turn the singing competition at school into a publicity stunt for Akane and force her to resume her career at the end of the school year whether Akane likes it or not. In chapter 66, when she furiously chews Akane out for dropping out of the competition in favor of Lilly, calling her a "loser girl with no reputation," Akane has finally had enough; she gives her mother an ArmorPiercingSlap, furiously calls her out over her attitude and actions, and fires her as her manager, declaring that the idol business has turned her into a different person and she wants her mom back. This, combined with Akane subsequently singing the song her [[DisappearedDad late father]] used to sing and explaining that she wants to be the idol she herself envisions, reaches her mother, who breaks down in TearsOfRemorse.

* ''Manga/{{Evangelion 303}}'': In chapter 10, Gendo meets his son for first time after ten years... and he starts lecturing him about his neglected duties and [[AlwaysSaveTheGirl being more worried about a comatose]], [[FieryRedhead pretty girl]] [[AlwaysSaveTheGirl than about every one else in the world]].

'''Gendo''':''"Is that all?"''\\
'''Shinji''':''"I hope they keep you in here forever, [...] even that'll be too good for you, after all that you have done."''\\
'''Gendo''':''"You mean like bringing you and the Second Children together?"''\\
'''Shinji''':''"I didn't need you for that! [...] we never needed you to fall in love! You were only using me, using Asuka, using Teri! [...] HOW COULD YOU?!"''\\
'''Gendo''':''"Because I needed to,"''\\

** Shinji averts this. He is in his thirties when his father comes back from Instrumentaliy, and he stopped caring for Gendo and his abusive behavior long ago, so he doesn't call him out.
** Asuka called Misato out on neglecting her completely and abandoning her right when she needed her the most. Misato agreed she screwed it up with her and Shinji.

'''Misato:''' Now Asuka, that's not really fair --\\

'''Misato:''' Hold on now --\\
'''Asuka:''' And then you let the commander hang me out to dry, before you threw me out like garbage when I was no longer useful --\\
'''Misato:''' Asuka, wait a minute --\\

** Ryuko tells her mother childhood traumas don't excuse bitchiness when you're in your forties. Asuka's retort was… hugging her.

--->'''Gendo:''': “You are not indispensable. If you will not pilot the Evangelion, Rei will do so instead”.\\
'''Shinji:''' “You know, on some level I should be surprised that you would threaten to have a fourteen year old Girl sent to her death if I didn’t do exactly what you said… but I’m not”.\\
'''Fuyutsuki:''' “Now Shinji, that’s not what he-”\\
'''Shinji:''' “Oh of course it is. You don’t have any need to defend this man in front of me. Yesterday he paraded Rei out as the consequence of me defying him, putting her through hell just to blackmail me into Unit One. Every one of us knows she wouldn’t have lasted five seconds in combat, but he didn’t give a damn”.

--->'''Gendo''':''"You think you can threaten me?"''\\
'''Shinji''':''"Of course I can. I am the only pilot of Unit-01. You need me to save your life. You know as well as I do that you don't have any spare pilots. And you also know that Rei and Asuka won't be able to fight alone for long. That is, if I don't convince them to stop fighting for you at all. In this whole scenario... you are the only one who is useless."''

--->'''Shinji''':''"Damn you! You hurt Touji! You let Asuka suffer! You took Rei from me! And now you want me to kill Kaoru? You heartless son of a bitch! If it wasn't my mother's name, I'd be ashamed of being called Ikari!"''

Summing it up, he says "I wanted your love but you never did a thing for Mom and I; and I found out I didn't need it to be awesome, and it's because of that I'm graduating from the most high-class academy in the galaxy. And it's after all this when you want to be my father again. We don't need you anymore, so screw you, in-name-only ''Dad.''" Wow.

* ''Fanfic/GuardiansWizardsAndKungFuFighters'': When reunited with his long thought dead father, Caleb's first reaction is to break his nose. When Julian recovers from that, Caleb then chews him out for the BlackAndWhiteMorality he forced the Rebellion to run on and that he impressed on the younger generation, nearly driving Caleb to becoming a KnightTemplar [[spoiler: and succeeding in doing so to Aldarn]]. Additionally, he also brings up how disgusted he was to learn about how Julian let [[TokenEvilTeammate monsters like Rhouglar and Tharquin into the Rebellion]], and about [[DarkSecret what he did at Carhaiz]], ultimately making it clear that he no longer respects his father and will no longer let him have any authority in the Rebellion.
* ''Fanfic/InfinityTrainBlossomingTrail'', Professor Cerise praises Chloe for getting into a battle against Ash...completely ignoring how Chloe was humiliated in her attempt to even battle Ash -- because she was pressured by her classmates to fight him -- and it only tells her that her father will only care or notice her problems if it involves Pokémon.

This includes the "Father and Daughter" memory, famous in canon for being the one scene King Rhoam shares with his daughter Zelda where he admonishes her for ostensibly shirking her duties. She responds by calling him out on his distant parenting style, and how he never really was a father to her after the death of her mother. Instead of trying to help Zelda, he only pushed her into trying to unlock her powers. She also calls him out on how he constantly makes her feel like she's nothing more than a prop to further the image of a family. Zelda isn't that happy with this, because she still loves her dad, and she wishes to make some amends with him, [[PartingWordsRegret but the Calamity strikes before that happens]].

[[NotHelpingYourCase Gabriel slaps Adrien to shut him up]] and while he [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone immediately regrets it and tries to apologize]], [[BreakTheCutie Adrien is broken and no longer has any energy to stand up for himself]], though he pointedly reframs their relationship as [[IHaveNoSon employer and employee rather than father and son]].

-->'''Adrien''': You can do whatever you want to me. You can take me out of school! You can book me for whatever events you want, I don’t care! Just - Just leave Marinette out of it!\\
'''Gabriel''': Why do you care about her so much? She’s clearly not interested in you.\\
'''Adrien''': What do you want from me? I’ve done everything you’ve ever asked of me. I do it without resisting. I’m perfect. What else do you want from me?\\

'''Adrien''': You don’t treat me like your son. You treat me like your property. You’re doing this because you think you can use this to make me sit and stay. You thought you could use Marinette to hurt me. You thought that would make me come back to you, right? That I could be your puppet again?

In chapter 66, when she furiously chews Akane out for dropping out of the competition in favor of Lilly, calling her a "loser girl with no reputation," Akane has finally had enough; she gives her mother an ArmorPiercingSlap, furiously calls her out over her attitude and actions, and fires her as her manager, declaring that the idol business has turned her into a different person and she wants her mom back. This, combined with Akane subsequently singing the song her [[DisappearedDad late father]] used to sing and explaining that she wants to be the idol she herself envisions, reaches her mother, who breaks down in TearsOfRemorse.
