I don't have any first hand knowledge of the text and I'm not sure of the context of the quotes I'm looking up. So it might be more helpful if I provide some links to
An essay by Susan Coulter titled "Frankstein - a cautionary tale of bad parenting" (1) analyzes the relationship between Victor Frankenstein and the creature. The essay contains many quotes, including the following:
"No human being could have passed a happier childhood than myself. My parents were possessed by the very spirit of kindness and indulgence. We felt that they were not the tyrants to rule our lot according to their caprice, but the agents and creators of all the many delights which we enjoyed." (page 37)
"You, my creator, would tear me to pieces, and triumph..." (page 140)
You can also sift through Mahalo's page on Frankenstein quotes: http://www.mahalo.com/Frankenstein_Quotes. The page includes links to Wikiquote and LitQuote.
Skimming Wikiquote, I noticed one quote that is blatantly about parenting: "Cursed, cursed creator! Why did I live? Why, in that instant, did I not extinguish the spark of existence which you had so wantonly bestowed?" (Ch. 16)
