Mr. Bennet from "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen is often seen as neglectful and irresponsible as a father. He did not actively guide or provide for his daughters' future, especially in terms of financial security. Although he showed a sense of humor and wit, his lack of involvement in his daughters' lives had negative consequences.

Mr Bennet shoked Mrs Bennet when Mr Collins asked for marrying their daughter. The latter did not accept and Mr Bennet said nothing. In fact he liked her decison. And this made Mrs Bennet angry with him because her aim was to make her daughters marry whoever asks for them.
Mr. Bennet had some kind of limitation on his ability to will his estate to his family; Austen says that Mr. Bennet's property may only be inherited by a mal. After Mr. Bennet's death his land will go to Mr. Collins, his closest male relative.
Mrs. Bennet wanted Mr. Bennet to take the family to Brighton.

Mrs. Bennet accused Mr. Bennet of always giving their daughter Lydia the preference.
We are not told why Mrs. Bennet married. Mr. Bennet certainly did not marry for money, as his wife did not have much. He married her because she was good looking, high spirited, and appealingly silly. He clearly regretted this and lost affection for her.
