No? I don't know why people keep thinking this.
The guy lost his mate, his daughter looked a lot like her and he was happy about it, while Stormfur took after him more. But ironically, just like his mate, Feather bit the dust too. Double ouch. Graystripe has shown affection for both of his kits, he was eager to train Storm as his apprentice, and was super happy when they were reunited again, even wanted him to stay in the clan with him after he and Brook ran away. Like he loves both his kits. And none of his actions ever showed him actually favoring one over the other??

Absolutely what Maple said. He loved both equally, and even now I refuse to believe he doesn't love the 3 B's as much. We just don't get his POV and he's treated like a horrible father with hardly any real proof and it angers me.
Give me a scene of all 3 B's saying Graystripe is a bad father and then I'll believe it. But until then, no, I am not going to jump on this "Graystripe's a bad father" bandwagon.

Well, since Graystripe says "She was so much like Feathertail.." I can see why people would think that. If I am correct she was also the first one Gray asked for when they returned from the journey.
Maybe Gray isn't a bad father, but he definitely isn't as supportive as he should be with the 3 Bs. When Blossomfall was yelled at by Millie he was watching. He didn't go over to ask if she was okay, in fact it was Ivypool who was the one who helped comforted her, not her own father.
Gray is hardly shown to be around Briar like Millie is. I'm not saying she's the mother of the year, but at least she's showing concern about her child. Gray was only there once for Briar, and that was in Fading Echoes, and he hasn't been seen much with her since. He was upset when Feather died, why didn't he seem as upset with Briar?
I think he loves his family with Silver more than Millie's. He isn't as supportive like he should be, and this is also why I think he and Millie should have just remained friends. He boasts all the time about Feather and Storm, but we never see him talking about his new family. Sandstorm even had to tell him off once not to be hard on his kits.

It makes sense he'd ask for her because she wasn't with the others when they returned, she was dead.

That actually reminds me of how it was noted that sometimes Stormfur would turn to talk to Feathertail and forgot she wasn't there anymore. Honestly reading that broke my heart, I can't imagine how much harder Graystripe took the news. I think the two incidents have actually caused him some sort of emotional trauma hence why he was so upset when Briar and Millie almost died, because he remembered what happened to his previous mate and daughter all over again.

I just noticed my mistake. I put Feathertail instead of Silverstream in Graystripe's quote. I'm gonna keep that just for laughs. XD

Little idea about why he isn't in the B's lives as much: He could think that if he's as active as he was with Feather and Storm, they will die or abandon him. I feel like he needs some slack cut regarding the three B's, because it makes sense to think that he fears being around him regarding that his first litter is no longer around him and have had a hard time because of Graystripe.

Yes, he obviously favors Mistystar more. Just remember how proud he was of her becoming leader
