But it's a great way to make the Man of Steel look vulnerable, having him feel violated that someone stole his DNA and cloned him (especially since that 'someone' is Cadmus, funded by Lex Luthor) and therefore isn't ready or willing to be the father-figure that Superboy needs.
And even if Conner does come off like a whiny teenage bitch in some episodes, it does make a lot of sense that he'd be so loaded down with issues with all of that going on.
