   This video what so completely obtuse and unironic. I was first dumbfounded and then just offended that TED would drop the bar this low. I kept waiting for the profound part, but it kept getting worse and worse until I realized that this was it, another straight man talking about what women as mothers and caregivers have been saying for centuries and centuries. And that doesn't even scratch on the interesting or important topics about caregiving that have been studied and discusses. I'm sorry to go full Womyn's Studies on you all, but I can't help it. Other than being a man who has experienced something new that women have already experienced and been outspoken about, what gives Glen the authority? For one, what was that dry-erase board thing?? Does Glen know anything about early childhood education? He did say he "read an article" *rolls eyes*. So in that part of the video, Glen begins, "I thought I knew that the best way to teach kids right from wrong was to discipline them…the pain, the fear, that would teach them" (6:14). Unfortunately misinformed. I wonder which powerful, gender-based system of violence, oppression, and control gave Glen those ideas about raising kids… Anyway, then without explaining at all what he's doing with that poor 2 year old (to us or him?), Glen says he, "makes connections that they can understand". Much better! Very sharp stuff you've got there with the dry erase board… Oh, and I hate to rag on his little home made videos, but spewing those irresponsible patriarchal views makes it worth it. The home video clips…were a little painful. The kids were cute, but the videos were clearly staged by the dad, or at least had a big element of "ooOOH let me go grab my camera!" when a stereotypically cute thing happened, like drawing on the walls with crayon while wearing matching superhero masks. And then good on Glen for making up games and taking his children outside? Good on him for giving his enlightened, sensitive perspective to another man too? You're being a MODERATE parent. You haven't impressed me at all yet. Honestly, that fictional woman that you made up about the laundry and the child and the dog made me more sympathetic. Not only do women stay at home at significantly higher %'s than men, but women care for children as single mothers at significantly higher %'s than men. Are any of them trending #2 on TED Talks right now? TED Talks, please delete this boring waste of a viewer's time and find a real, original, well-done, and worthy "Idea Worth Spreading" to replace it. Maybe by a mom?

    Stay at home dad here for a couple of years after getting out of the military. I keep going through depression episodes, like right now I have no motivation to do anything. Feel like I'm in a rut going through the motions every day. Some days I'll try and teach my 4 year old numbers letters etc. But I know I'm not a good teacher and I get frustrated easy. All my kid does is watch tv all day from sun up tell sun down. I just feel like I'm failing as a father that I should be doing something with/for my kid but dont know what or how.
