I think you might need some good dad Bruce metas after raging about abusive Batman. So as a Dick Grayson fan, I will put these links that contain metas about good dad Bruce and the relationship between Bruce and his favorite child. Favorite child canonically being Dick lol. Fanfics will never convince me that Jason or Cass is his favorite. Nope he experienced empty nest syndrome so hard that he went and adopted another one. He even admits it!

There's more...
these are lovely thank you! "We're not the same. Don't you see, Bruce? I had you." is one of my all time favourite quotes for them, the gentle rejection and the deep understanding from Dick is everything to me.
it's... you know, i firmly believe Bruce does love all his children roughly equally but at the end of the day no one can compete with the sheer depth of history Bruce and Dick have and the result IS basically favoritism lol
