I am Iron Man

He was cold, he was calculating. He never told me he loved me, he never even told me he liked me, so it’s a little tough for me to digest when you’re telling me he said the whole future was riding on me and he’s passing it down. I don’t get that. You’re talking about a guy who’s happiest day was when he shipped me off to boarding school.

Howard Stark in MCU ≠ Howard Stark in comics (and even in the comics, he is portrayed in absolutely different ways, from a stern father to some spawn of hell)

I never thought he was a bad father. Yes, he was not a perfect father for sure, but he was not a bad one. We have never seen evidence that he is a terrible father, we have only Tony’s opinion, and children can surely make mistakes in their judgments and interpret adult things incorrectly.
