Also, and I know it's major projecting on my part, but my family was the victim of an alcoholic abusive dad. So when certain people say that it's okay because of attraction levels or try to explain it away to make it seem like we should be sympathetic towards Howard REALLY rub me the wrong way with my personal experiences.

But is there any indication in the films that Howard was an alcoholic or abusive? Because when Tony is bitterly recalling his father, I remember him mentioning that his father sent him away to boarding school.

Nick Fury: What do you remember about your father?
Tony Stark: He was cold, calculating, never told me he loved me, never even told me he liked me, so it's a bit hard for me to digest that he said the whole future is riding on me thing, I don't get that! You're talking about a man whose happiest day of his life was shipping me off to boarding school.

It's probably worth keeping in mind that Howard Stark IN THIS SERIES hasn't abused Tony, because Tony won't be born for another twenty years. Also, Howard is the McGuffin in this series, so it doesn't matter if viewers care about him or not-- the actual adventurous pairing is Peggy and Jarvis, who are more fun together than instruments can measure.
