Snow's dad is very clearly portrayed as an asshole. He's not supposed to be a good guy at all. Even Snow's mom is is not 100% pure good (more like 90%, but still).

The theme is that no one is 100% evil or good and plenty of bio parents were assholes in this universe too, see: Regina's mother, Rumple & Milena, Rumple's dad, Emma... I think you'll find way more bad parents than good, here, actually.

"Snow's dad is very clearly portrayed as an asshole."

Huh? Leopold is a really decent guy. He cares about his subjects, gave Sidney his freedom, and was willing to forgive Cora if she hadn't lied to him.

Remember that everything Regina and Henry Sr told Sidney was a lie meant to incite him to murder the king. Leopold's only crime was reading Regina's diary and since she *wanted* him to do that to make sure her plan worked, I'm inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt on that one. Two episodes before this one, the show made a point of telling us all about compulsion spells that could be put on objects to ensure someone was drawn to them.

There was that later episode, the first Tinkerbell one, where he ignored Regina and treated her like shit and was clearly still in love with his late wife and didn't care if Regina know it. Oh, and kept her trapped in the palace.

He was mostly a decent guy, but he couldn't get past his love for his dead wife to be even show basic human decency to his new wife.

None of that remotely excuses Regina's actions, of course. But he was horrible to her.
