10 Worst Things Batman Has Done To Robin

Although the physical and psychological damage carried out on various Robins over the years has at points been downright abusive, the worst thing Batman has ever done to them has been the one thing he can't prevent; namely, from taking the role of Robin.

While many storylines have shown that practically every Robin would continue to fight crime without the Caped Crusader's consent, even this is his fault for creating the role in this first place. Batman does warn them, but in a sort of classic brooding manner that actually makes the whole thing look a lot cooler than it had in the first place.

Every Robin does a good job in their role, but at the end of the day they're still kids and teenagers, who are essentially becoming child soldiers - and Batman, despite the fact he knows they'll get hurt, doesn't stop them.

Essentially, Batman has convinced a series of children to fight convicted serial killers. While they are good at it, you can't help but think people who aren't old enough to drive maybe shouldn't be placed in intensely dangerous situations because a man with parent issues and a cool cape has decided they're "ready".
