This version of the Kent-Lane family were originally from another Earth, before travelling to the New Rebirth Earth to raise their son in peace as the Smiths.

Clark does try to be a good father and hero for his son, and Jon knowing his father's secret does help him to understand why he can't always be there or ends up running late for the activities and events he would both of his parents to be part of.

Batman and Superman: Battle of the Super Sons
Before baby Kal-El was placed in the rocket, his father hoped that his son would become one to his own child. From the joy he gave his parents, before their planet was destroyed. The grown up Kal-El granted his late father's wish when Clark Kent's wife, Lois gave birth to their son Jonathan Kent. Because Jon wasn't lifting cars above his head like his father had done when he was two, Clark and Lois decided to keep Jon in the dark until his powers emerge. Allowing Jon to grown up as a normal boy, who is a fan of Superman while having no idea that he is in fact his father. Who is always away most of the time and has a boring job like his mum. Making him wish that they had exiting jobs when he was asked to do a report on what his parents do for a living. Clark tries to make up for lost time when he gets from saving the day, by helping Jon with his chores. While making sure that his son doesn't try to take a sneak peak of his birthday gifts.

Fanon
Out of all the children that Superman has had in the many different DC universes and medias, with Lois or Wonder Woman, Jon Kent is seen as one of people's most favourites, from Jon being canon in the prime comics. Along with fans being drawn towards the father-son moments between Clark and Jon from the Rebirth Superman comics. As well as the brief moments between them in the Young Justice series and the 2022 CGI film of the Super Sons. Even though Battle of the Super Sons is about the titled two, some people also saw it as a father and son story between Jon and Clark. Due to Superman's role in Jon's origin story as Superboy and forming the young duo with Damian.

Some fans were upset when Jon's "growth spurt" got Clark to leave and left his son to protect Earth on his own. Even though the two stayed in touch to check on one another and to give Jon advice on how to be Superman. The group wanting the two to stay together has them preferring child Jon to adult Jon. With Jon having his childhood cut short was what got Clark to leave his grown up son. The suspected reboot of the DC universe has fans hoping for future moments between father and son.
