Yeah, well, but the point in this reality is that Peter had to retire since he lost his leg against Norman Osborn. Also, this version of Peter acted more out of jealousy of his own daugther than as a teacher. He always had to make the things more complicated for May each time he could, like the time he disguised himself as a mercenary named "WildCard". (Seriously, what was he thinking?). And yet, he never recognized Mayday's merits in reforming some supervillains (most of them, children of supervillains); like Normie Osborn, Brenda Drago or even Venom's symbiote.
As much as I hate to say it, the Peter of this reality let the years took the best of his personality in many ways.
