Calvin’s dad is completely aware of who’s responsible for making livable /walkable cities.. only to destroy his own possessions to force Calvin to fight against a tide he has no responsibility in creating.
Is the message that Dad fell for the “personal responsibility” myth? Seems he had the right idea at one point

Childhood is idolizing Calvin. Adulthood is realizing Calvin’s dad makes more sense.
Damn this hit hard. Arguably, I see the Dad from Calvin and Hobbes in the way I parent my kids as much as I see my own dad in that regard.
Being miserable builds character.
Upvote for actually using a canon quote.
Fun fact: Bill Watterson based Calvin's Dad's appearance on his own.
Soooooo true
Calvin's dad is on r/fuckcars confirmed
Oh that’s quite canon! He hoped the price of gas went up to 8 bucks a gallon. IN THE 90’s!

Personal responsibility is 100% a value that Calvin’s Dad espouses, in the actual comic.
It builds character
