[@nicholaslawrence6926]

LOL!! True! Rather ironical, when you think of the kind of family Zuko had! But on a serious note, I like the realism of the story, in that just because Aang and Toph did a lot to save the world and help rebuild the four nations, it did not necessarily mean that they were excellent parents in their own right. They shouldered very great burdens and their children paid a price for that, as Tenzin, Bumi and Kya observed about their father.

[@JCasR3]

Zuko had a tyrannical and abusive father, he saw the worst and chose to be different. Aang like most Air Nomads didn't have traditional parents or a family structure to learn from. Tophs parents were over protective, aside from this incident we know that Toph was an alright parent. She may have been too laid back but her daughters were very focused and hard working people.

[@11tw48]

Aang had to deal with genecide at the age of 10. Being burned in the face by your father has nothing on that. Tbh I'm surprised that Aang's kids were so normal. p.s. it would be so dark but so funny if Zuko's daughter had a burn on one side of her face. I'm an awful human being.

[@GotPotatoes24]

Lin has one of the most tragic backstories in Legend of Korra. All the people she loved- Tenzin, Su, Toph- left her. Even Aang and Sokka, who I imagine she loved like fathers, died. All she had left (before she made up with her family and ex) was her job, so it's easy to see why she was so dedicated that she became chief, arrested the Avatar, and got invited to multiple world-leader meetings.

[@aeris44]

Wow, that was very beautiful. It makes so much sense why Lin is so moody and closed off. But when you get those moments of seeing her smile or risking her life to save others...you know that she is the most selfless person in the series.

[@Montesama314]

That reminds me of Asami Sato's lineup of near-tragedies: Every man in her life (Mako, Varrick, and even her own father Hiroshi) ended up betraying her at some point. She struck out in her love life, her family is pretty much gone, and she almost lost the business after spending so long to salvage its reputation. Good thing is, those men have all reformed in the end, but it's no wonder that Asami ultimately finds comfort with Korra on their vacation.

Instead Su got everything, she got freedom, a family, she went on many adventures and created her own city. Maybe it isn't always right to follow the rules? I dunno but it's always the bad things that happen to good people. The good always have it the hardest.

[@mouna3242]

+TheMegaUzumaki Yet Lin sacrificed her bending for Tenzin, and his family. Lin is not bad, and she didn't deserve the life she got. It's all Su's and Toph's fault.

[@mouna3242]

***** Su and Toph moved on because their lives wasn't affected. Toph sending Su away, and destroying the report saved her career. And Su moving away gave her more freedom to do what she wanted. Lin's life however was affected. Su marked her face, disobeyed her, and hated Lin. While Toph chose protecting Su over Lin's feelings. Lin also admired Toph and worked hard to please her by becoming a metal bender cop, but Toph couldn't care less. Lin gave up having a family with Tenzin, just so she could become chief of police for Toph, and she didn't even care. I don't blame Toph because her upbringing affected her parenting style, but she didn't care for Lin and Su like a parent would. Lin did nothing wrong.

[@mouna3242]

***** I know Lin harassed Pema you don't need to repeat yourself. Lin harassing Pema doesn't have anything to do with how Su and Toph decision and actions ruined her life. Compared to everything else Lin's did on the show, she's pretty selfless. Lin's saved Korra's live repetitively, she saved Tenzin and Pema's family, she sacrificed herself to protect Su from Pi li, and rescued Su and her family when Kuvria imprisoned them.

[@mouna3242]

***** Say what you want, but it is Toph and Su's fault to why things ending up this way for Lin. I never said what Lin did to Tenzin and Pema is justified, but it doesn't have any affect on Lin's life being messed up. That's all on Toph and Su.

[@mouna3242]

***** You say Lin's choices messed up her life? Was it Lin who got arrested by stealing with a group of triads? Was it Lin who destroyed Su's arrest report? Was it Lin who acted irresponsible, skipped school, or acted up? Besides what she did to Tenzin and Pema, she hasn't made any bad choices. Toph didn't take responsibility for Su's actions when she was arrested, she just destroyed the report and let her off scot free. Lin only did her job in that situation. Please stop using Tenzin and Pema in the situation of Su getting arrested. That moment is when Lin's life changed, because it happened before her relationship with Tenzin was over. Pema and Tenzin didn't happen then when this flashback took place.

Since Toph always had a strictly confined childhood, she wanted to do the opposite for her own children. It's interesting to see how each of her daughters decided to go about having so much freedom on their hands. Lin wanted to make her mother proud and joined the police just like her mother because she thought following in her mother's footsteps would make Toph happy, but this actually made Toph dissapointed because Lin did what would make her mother happy and not herself. Suyin took advantage of having so much freedom and dabbled in illegal affairs as a result. She kind of had young Toph's attitude of "living in the moment" and "doing whatever she wanted". I just find it so intriguing how their personalities reflect on Toph's decision to give them what she didn't have as a child for their own sake, but ultimately it didn't turn out the way she had hoped.

Fascinating how Zuko raised the most well adjusted child out of the next generation of the Gaang.

[@fangirlme33]

Makes sense on a general common sense level and to a degree a psychological one as well. Kids tend to try not to make the same mistakes their parents made, so it is easy to end up being the direct opposite of their parents. Toph had suffocating, restrictive, and strict parents who tried to control who she is and make her fit *their mold. So with her kids, she decided to avoid that entirely by giving them the freedom she wanted as a child to be whoever they are without any guidance or any rules. With Zuko, he always had a kindhearted personality that his mom and Uncle Iroh nurtured and protected in him, while his father, the source of a lot of his issues, was an narcissistic abuser who had no mercy and never chose to exercise empathy or compassion towards others. In turn, Zuko managed to keep and impart the values his good parental figures gave him to his children, and he learned not to do the things his dad did that made him feel terrible as a child. Without the proper wisdom to temper that "don't be like my own parents" attitude, those that become parents don't keep the parts their parents did right; they just do the opposite. Any parenting style needs balance. Parents need to walk a fine line with freedom and rules, structure and independence, and the ability to make mistakes on your own and learn from them tempered with the expectation of keeping behavior in line with certain ideals, hopefully good ones like integrity, humility, respect, etc. (This isn't easy to do of course.) It is easier to do these things when you have a healthy and good family, like Katara and Sokka did, or if you have some good parental figures in your life, like Zuko did. I haven't watched enough of LOK to speak about Aang's parenting, but based on what little I know, it makes sense to me personally that he might have favored Tenzin too much. This is not to say that he is a terrible parent, but he wasn't a perfect or great one. A nomadic lifestyle to what I know probably takes on a more communal parenting approach, where a child can be supported by and learn from one adult what another might not be as great in. There could have been some subconscious assumption on his part that any of his shortcomings would be rounded out by his found family, though his friends now adults also have their own share of responsibilities and troubles to deal with. Also he had a lot of responsibility from the entire world to bear, and it makes sense that that didn't help his parenting much.

Then there is uncle Iroh for him when he is in exile. I would say he has a perfect set up to become a good parent since he has both good and bad example around him for cross examination. Then Aang not only had a rough chilhood, he doesn't have anyone as Air Nomad left alive for him as an example to be a good dad. Toph is more or less the same. They being not an ideal parent for thier kids are not suprise for its setting. What I have complain is that this idea is not very well elaborate in the show.

This was DIRTY and UNNECESSARILY hurtful. Lin was only attacking Suyin with legitimate gripes. Meanwhile Suyin goes under the belt. She has NEVER apologized for SCARRING Lin, both emotionally as well as physically. Suyin actually seemed to be REWARDED; she got a loving family, is rich, is FOUNDER OF A CITY, etc. Meanwhile Lin has never gotten over the pain caused by both her mother and sister. Not to mention she was ABANDONED by a boyfriend who dumped her AS SOON AS something he deemed "better" came along. Tenzin claims they had been "growing apart for years" but if he felt that way, why didn't he sit Lin down and talk to her? It's clear they weren't in the same page. I blame Toph for this. It seems like she put all her expectations onto poor Lin, making her carry the weight of "family honor" while Suyin danced around like the little hooligan she was, hanging with PETTY street THUGS and STEALING. Yet Toph covered for her hooligan child when really Suyin could have used this punishment as a wake up call. Lin never got the justice she deserved. She just gets sidelined by everyone, written off as "bitter" and expected to just "get over" her pain. It's clear Suyin never really grows up. As we see, Opal and Kuvira had many of the same issues Lin and Suyin had. In this case, Suyin allowed Kuvira to belittle and attack Opal, who had NO BENDING ABILITIES at that time.

[@quantasium]

@Pro Justice That’s not how things work. The point the writers are trying to bring out is that life sucks. People can do bad things and still have a happy ending while others who live righteously get screwed over. The point is, it’s best to just let go and move on.

[@notazula]

[@GreatUniter]

Exactly. Suyin it seems to treat her sons better than her daughters. She immediately forgives Baatar Jr. despite his role in Kuvira's regime (he was practically the Emperor consort.) and pulls some strings to get him a more lenient sentence. She allows her youngest sons to come with her kill their older sister figure in her sleep but she never contemplated that she would have to kill Baatar Jr as well since leadership would transfer to him in the event of Kuvira's untimely demise. She also quickly dismisses Kuvira's feelings that she was never really apart of her family which is true given that does not introduce Kuvira as her child in Book 3. When Lin states that it must be a nightmare to have five kids she doesn't bother to correct Lin that she adopted a sixth. Kuvira's last name isn't Beifong so she never formally adopted her. She isn't present in any of Su's family photos and is not present at Opal's farewell dinner. She never reprimanded Kuvira for smashing Opal's dollhouse or Opal for calling Kuvira a stray animal that no one wants. Opal was scared to be open with her mother regarding leaving Zaofu. Su states that she views Kuvira as something like a daughter to Korra not she is my adopted daughter.

i still hate how the episode portrayed Lin as being "in the wrong" without having Su get any kind of comeuppance whatsoever. Lin DID her JOB! she did EVERYTHING she was supposed to do, and she did it right. and Su gets bailed out of jail while Toph gets mad at Lin for doing what she was supposed to do while ALSO being a major hypocrite by keeping her daughter shielded from the law. and yet Su gets the perfect life, and "moves on" and WOW isn't she so enlightened for keeping her eyes on the future and believing in moving on from the past? yeah, except she NEVER took responsibility for what she did in the past. did she even say sorry for scarring her sister for life? and when Lin calls her out on it, Su makes it seem like she's the one in the wrong for "not getting over it." and on TOP of that, she made a really low comment on Lin and Tenzin's relationship. and despite all this bullshit, Lin still finds it in her heart to let go and reconcile with her sister. her karma-dodging, gas-lighting, responsibility avoiding, holier than thou sister. like, seriously.

She never took responsibility for what she did, she could've attempted to make up for her mistakes by apologising to Lin, and maybe Lin would've had a much better life but noooo she never tried even ONCE in (what like 10 years?) and she had the nerves to tell Lin to "get over it". Honestly Lin is justified for hating Su. For what Su achieved you'd think apologising wouldn't be that hard.

[@johnfkennedyfromclonehigh5174]

Toph grew up sheltered from peers her own age (up until the Gaang), and had her capabilities severely underestimated by her parents. So she obviously did everything to avoid falling into the same pattern as her parents, by limiting expectations and granting Lin and Suyin too much freedom. It’s not that Toph “didn’t care” for Lin and Suyin, she just didn’t mind how they chose to express themselves and didn’t think to mind their different hobbies and skill-sets. I’m not saying Toph is in the right, and I totally agree that Suyin was being a disobedient brat. But I kind of understand why. I’m not trying to defend her actions, but she’s a teenage girl who has minimal expectations, too much freedom and not a whole lot of parental guidance. It’s not that surprising that she joined a gang at twelve-years-old.

[@SharkyMcSnarkface]

This is a thing I really like about tLOK and AtLA that I feel is a bit underrated in the former. It’s not afraid to show major characters messing up and just being normal humans. They made mistakes, and most importantly of all, sometimes bad choices go unpunished. Lin is in the right here but she is punished for it. Toph obviously had no ill intent with her choice, and was just doing what she thought was right that was in line with her character.

I can understand Toph not wanting her daughter to be in jail with the criminals she put away and Aang wanting to preserve the Airbending tradition by teaching Tenzin but still.

[@Sakurabliss7]

Honestly, Aang favoring Tenzin was to be expected. Aang was always a little resentful that he was the last Airbender. And having two kids who didn't inherit his air bending abilities probably bothered him a lot. So when Tenzin displayed airbending abilities, it's not unexpected to think that Aang focused on Tenzin to carry on the Air Nomad legacy, which ended putting a lot of unnecessary stress on the poor guy, while also leaving Bumi and Kya neglected. As much as it pains me to see it, I did expect as much. And when it was revealed, I wasn't too shocked. I've seen parents in real life favoring the child that looks the most like them, so it's not unrealistic. I'm just happy that the siblings don't hold any deep-rooted resentment towards each other, like Lin and Su.

[@hollow_blue2224]

[@peachcampanella]

0 Aang’s and Zuko’s parenting style doesn’t seem too surprising once you think about it. Aang was raised by monks and has no concept of a two-parent family in his culture. It was also made clear that he desperately grasped on the hope of restoring Air Nomad culture as seen in ATLA when he got extremely mad when the Northern Air Temple was industrialized. Even though Zuko had a huge leadership role for his nation, Aang had the greatest leadership role not only for the whole world, but also for spiritual balance; that leaves little to no time for family matters even if he wanted to be a more attentive father. It’s a sad reality. Zuko on the other hand, despite having a terrible father, lucked out on having a mother who nurtured him as well as Iroh who was very wise, loving, humble and treated Zuko as his son after Lu Ten died. In the comics, we also learn that Zuko was always a gentle and kindhearted boy as a small child, so much so that his father thought he would be a non-bender at first since many fueled their firebending out of volatile emotions.

So like give Su her own jail cell/house arrest, or at LEAST like probation. There is ALWAYS a way to discipline someone and if she had explained to Lin THAT way it would have come off as a genuine safety concern rather than neglectful parenting. Lin didn't want her sister physically hurt or killed, but she did want to see her disciplined which is probably the MAIN reason she's such a tight ass herself.

Um, you really don't get it, do you? The way Toph said "This is our only option" is because she's the chief of police with a child in jail. It would be ironic, because she wants to enforce the law, yet can't control her own child. Who would listen to to a chief with an imprisoned child?

I can definitely sympathise with Lin in the overall show. she did everything perfectly. taking after Toph by becoming a cop, enforcing the law amazingly, and being able to raise her younger sister mostly by herself. yet her story is genuinely so tragic. her emotions and feelings always being belittled by others because everyone else is so used to her being this “bitter” emotionless woman. being called selfish by her younger sister yet she was the one that sacrificed herself the most for the people she loved. Becoming abandoned by the love of her life once he found someone he deemed “better” than her because the other was willing to have a child with him. But she still seems like the one getting punished for being the most unproblematic, heart of gold woman ever. she learnt the hard way that you don’t know how strong you really are until being strong is your only option. the last time she ever trusted someone she got her heart broken then her face permanently scarred. yet people still can’t see why she’s barricaded herself behind invisible walls, lmfao

I think it was actually a good part of Avatar to show that even our most beloved characters such as Toph can have their own shortcomings. She even just committed corruption by letting her daughter go unpunished which was a pretty dirty move especially since one of their main objectives in ATLA was to remove a corrupt empire. I understand how some fans may think of this as trashy writing, that they ruined the characters we loved by making them do shitty things such as Aang and Toph being neglectful parents but I think it makes it more realistic and relatable. Real people aren't perfect and the main characters of ATLA are no exception. There are many good, decent people we love in our lives that would at times make bad decisions that can be really shitty but we try to get past those just like how in the end Toph wanted to make things right with her daughters.

@@universesavior554 I always am reminded by this that people don’t have to reconcile. That you can’t force reconciliation. Lin didn’t want to met up, but did Toph or Su ever go to the city to try and reconcile? Lin by all accounts is a functioning adult with a job and a life of her own that she built up by herself since Toph and Su left her (yes they left her). She has no need to reconcile and Su has never once tried going to her to reconcile. The least she could have done is try taking the punishment and get arrested for those crimes of assaulting a police officer, robbery/accessory to robbery, and resisting arrest. But no, keep living away from her, and never try approaching. Make Lin have to travel to you. That’s how reconciliation works.

[@mitsubachihachi9643]

The way she insulted Lin when Lin refused to forgive her too Apparently Suyin doesn't understand that it's Lin's choice whether to forgive or not

[@loren5432]

I feel like Lin acts too much as a vicim though. Yeah, Su is an ass because she caused literally everything, from scarring her sister's face permanently to making her mother break some rules due to her wanting to "have fun" (and most likely causing her to retire the following year because of that), and yeah, her apology always came off as insincere, but it always feels like Lin wants a medal for being treated badly, especially over something that by the time of the show, it happened decades ago. She has all the reasons to stay mad at her sister and not accept her apology (and her mother's too), but from what we've seen in the show, it's not like she's willing to at least hear Su out before lashing at her like a kid (even though she's a grown woman) and judging her even though Su (supposedly) learned about her actions and "changed" for the better. And it doesn't ends there, because she also directs her anger at people who had nothing to do with her dysfunctional family drama. Overall, I think Toph is the one who's mostly at fault here, yet everyone forgets that she exists here. Not only was she a neglectful mother for both of them, but she also coddled Su's behavior by breaking those papers, and while I get the reasoning behind as to why putting your own child in jail could be risky for a Chief of Police, she could've still punished her in other ways, such as giving her a separate jail cell from the rest of the prisoners (which is less bad compared to simply sending her off to live with her grandparents).
