✔️COMPLETED✔️:Dragon Ball [Z/SUPER/GT] Secrets

Vegeta Is Around in his children'd life more than Goku.

While Vegeta has a reputation for being anything but loving or sentimental, he's still a lot more sincere than Goku. Before Trunks is born, Vegeta spends most of his time flying through space, training to become a Super Saiyan and trying surpass Goku.

However, after Cell is defeated and Goku sticks around in the afterlife, Vegeta decides to actually be a dad. With Goku no longer around, Vegeta because the strongest pure-blood Saiyan.

Instead of fixating on the fact that he is the only Saiyan around, though, Vegeta finds balance and dedicates time to being with his half-Saiyan son.

He trains Trunks, spends time with him, takes him to the park, and when Majin Buu surfaces, Vegeta sacrifices his life for both his son and Bulma, his wife.

Goku, on the other hand, leaves a lot to be desired as a parent. While Gohan is growing up, Goku spends most of his time training in outer space or staying in the afterlife instead of being an active father figure.

Goten only gets to meet Goku due to a one day pass that the afterlife grants him for his good deeds in life. If it wasn't for this, Goten would have never met Goku.

In terms of raising children, Vegeta has always been a better father than Goku. Though Vegeta has often used Goku as a reference point to help him improve himself, Goku has never once done the same.
