In Death of a Salesman, is Happy's denial of his father at all justified in the way in which Willy has treated his sons throughout his...

Happy's behavior is indicative that he was raised with very
little discipline, and with almost no expectations from his parents. This leads him to act
irresponsibly and without thinking about the consequences of his actions. It also limits his
possibilities in life, because he has no high aspirations that made any sense. Just like his
father, he wants a quick and easy way to make money, a quick and easy way to meet women, and as
little as possible difficulty in his life.

Even more unfortunate is
the fact that Happy's closest male role model is his older brother, Biff. Biff is no different
than Happy in terms of living oblivious to what is real. Biff and Happy feed off each other,
reaching no goals and achieving nothing. They are the products of a father who was too busy
chasing a dream that was not even his own, and of a mother that enabled her husband in every way
possible.

Therefore, the lack of motivation, discipline,
consequence, responsibility, and interest in Happy's life are not necessarily justified, but are
expected of a person that belongs to a highly dysfunctional family.
