HD RANT
So, ya'll know that I'm obviously a die hard Jasper sympathizer and would fight anyone who dissed my favorite bucket boy.
So, it's not exactly a shock that I hate how terrible he was treated thoughout the HD.
They gave him so many issues that they never addressed unless it was a joke.
In canon he had terrible parents. We don’t know much about his dad other than he's presumably a dead beat and not around.
But, he has stated that his mom tells him she hates him and his grandma calls him a failure.
We see a few scenes where Jaspers says things like, "My parent don't like young people," and, "My parents don't like me to have fun things."
Then in the 'Future Piper' episode the future piper is acting erratically and compared to Jaspers mom, and in the 'Charlotte gets ghosted' episode the where Henry's parent through a raging party, the mess is compared to Jasper's house.
We see several other examples, like in S1.E13 'Let's Make a Steal' when Jasper breaks his nose, it's said that neither of his parents wanted to show up which is why Mr.Hart and Piper bitterly stayed with him.
In the 'Double-O Danger' episode it was revealed that Jasper's middle name is TBD meaning 'To Be Determined' because his parents split before giving him a real middle name.
Then again in S.3E4 'Mouth Candy' when Jasper was framed for stealing the candy boot and taken to jail, Henry had to call his mother and make up an excuse.
The conversation when like this:
Henry: "Heyyy, Mrs.Dunlop."
Her: *sounding annoyed* "Yeah, what?"
Henry: "Jaspers gonna be staying the night at my place tonight."
Her: "Oh cares?"
Henry: "Oh, you don't care?"
Her: *scoffs* "Nope. I gotta go." *hangs up*
[Laugh track plays in the background]
They made that whole conversation a joke, but it's actually really sad. It was obvious that his mother couldn't care at all where he was.
Which would explain his desperation for validation from Ray. He's seeking a parental figure because he doesn't have any.
This behavior seems to correlate with all classic signs of neglect and emotional abuse.
Jasper deserved better from his family, and better from nickelodeon.
The writers shouldn't have added theses serious themes if they were going to make it into a joke, they should have either addressed it seriously, or cut it entirely.

The realest part of the Barbie Movie was when Barbie was like "okay but what if this hurts his feelings? what if this makes him sad? :(" after Ken stole her house, stole her car, and stole her agency, because as a woman you still have to second guess everything you do on the assessment of whether it might hurt a man's feelings.
And then that apprehension was proven right one million times over by the entire Conservative Internet Manosphere pissing and shitting and screaming themselves hoarse over Barbie daring to hurt a man's feelings.

There's an up-and-coming Tech Giant, called Fenton Works, and Batman is determined to prove that the company is a front for a villain.
Danny, after his parents turned from Ghost hunting to being the first official Ghost Anthropologists, decided to repurpose some of their weapons.
And, well, there was a contest being run by Wayne Enterprises; whoever can design a robot that will help the environment got prize money and a grant.
Danny, in all his mechanical engineering prowess, was bored. So he designed a thing. Repurposed the Fenton Guns into a cute robotic tortoise that would clean the beach.
It spiraled from there, and now Fenton Works is the leading name in green technology that's cleaning up the Earth bit by bit. Sea Dragon robots that clean oil and trash from the ocean; beach tortoises that clean the sand and beach and deposit their hoard of trash into designated receptacles that Danny uses as material to make more robots; Cryptid "stalker" robots with long legs that delicately patrol forests to perform "fuel management" and clear out the underbrush to help manage wildfires; moving gargoyle robots that sit on top of skyscrapers to help clean the air with huge sail-like wings, etc.
Basically, Danny pulls a Doctor Elisabet Sobeck, but with less world ending and more actually helping. (Not that the world ending was Elisabet's fault, of course, but different franchise)
And due to the number of times aliens try to attack and rogues send their own robots to attack people, naturally Danny installed self-defense protocols, along with one single golden rule written into the very OS of every single robot; Save Humans Whatever the Cost.
Problem is, Batman has never seen robots like this not be used for evil purposes, and he knows that their power source (a closely guarded Fenton Works secret) is some sort of liquid that glows green.
He really only knows of one liquid that glows green.
So he's determined to find everything he can about Fenton Works, because there's no way that Daniel Fenton isn't actually a villain in the making.
Danny's just thrilled for the chance to work with Wayne Enterprises.
