Walt has never valued his family and children the majority of the series. He has repeatedly lied to them, put his brother-in-law in harm's way, and ignored repeated pleas to quit the business because the kids would be put in harm's way. And it wasn't to earn a living to support his family. The money he made has been largely stashed away and unusable. Everything he did was for himself. To build an empire and to prove he was the best in the business. Hell, he even stole his own kid from his family until he realized that was messed up.
He finally started to get religion this season, but it's hard to have sympathy for a man who starts doing the right thing out of desperation.
