I remember one of their stories from Action Comics (I forgot the number,
the issue's at home) where Supes Jr. and Batman Jr. are competing against
each other, and Superman is hindering his son's progress.  Later, they
visit Kandor for the son's birthday, and Supes can't defeat an animal he
encounters because he had siphoned all his power to his son (metal bracelets
and gold kryptonite had a role), and the son has to save his dad.  The
last frame has Supes Jr. flying and holding his dad, and Supes is saying
something like "I'll be on the sidelines now, cheering you on".

Jerry, perhaps you can name the issue faster than I.  I think the title
was "The Shame of the Super-Son", or something like that.
