splinters parenting (wormquake)

This could really only be bothering me because donate lol is my favorite turtle. ..but not once after getting a distress call from Leo an then appearing 2 see his sons in mortal danger did he ask where was his 4th son.

That's not a good father in my eyes I mean even the others could've just said dons in the jeans dimension but nothing!! His brothers didn't seem 2 care much on informing him either

I don't think Splinter's a bad parent, but I do wish Donnie was there because it didn't feel the same without him. If you haven't figured it out by now...he's my favorite turtle, too.

I don't think he is bad but it was rather odd he didn't even ask where he was given the circumstances

I don't think he had the opportunity to ask where Donatello was, it was more immediate into action to save his other three sons. And then getting the poison out of his system once they were at a place of safety.

So if he wondered where Donnie was at all he was probably hoping he could handle himself until the others could get to him.

Splinter has always been kind of an iffy father figure. In the comics, he was raising and training his "sons" to pretty much, just avenge his master's death, not too far off from what The Shredder is doing with Karai in this series.

I just hope we don't get no "while you are not my favorite student, that does not mean you are my least favorite son", really, WTF is that supposed to mean??? No freaking wonder why Raph and Donnie got issues, I guess they suffer from that middle child syndrome or something. Donny works his issues out in his inventions, and Raph works his issues out by losing his temper and beating the sh!t out of people/mutants, but they are just temporary fixes for their psychological problems. This is why we need an episode just focusing on Donnie and Raph, just so they can talk about their middle child syndromes.

Unfortunately when it comes to teams Donnie and Raph get along the least. In fact I'd argue that they fight more then Leo and Raph they definetly come verbal spats a lot faster.

This pretty much explains it. Besides, maybe Leo could have kept him up to date about Don when he called ....the cheese phone

Splinter pays more attention to Leo all around...
then Raph...
then Donnie
then Mikey.
at least Splinter talks to Donnie and Raph, he barely ever talks to Mikey. XD

but anyway....I'm wondering if the love triangle plot will sometimes separate Donnie from the others...??
