If a parent wasn’t there for you like they should would you still call them mom or dad? even if they don’t deserve the title?

I still my dad my dad even if he doesn’t deserve it but I do it because I look like him but I don’t have to be him.

I woukd as sign of respect not necessarily because of affinity towards. No need to make yourself deserving looking of the treatment over this kind of thing.
