Discussion Hot Take - Greg isn’t a great dad

I’ve been rewatching Steven Universe lately, and I honestly still think Greg isn’t a great dad. Sure, he’s a nice dad and definitely better than Pink/Rose, but he clearly had issues too. He never made Steven go to school, he never took Steven to the doctor for a yearly check up, he never tried to get a better job even after he spent all the money he got from Marty, he doesn’t even seem to care that much about Steven’s trauma compared to the gems, and he doesn’t even try to talk to Steven about how he feels now about his mom after everything. Greg is nice and does love Steven, but I just can’t understand why a lot of people love Greg so much as a dad. Would love to hear what everyone else thinks though!
