I always get a warm fuzzy feeling when I see dads doing a good job with the kids. My own father did a less than stellar job. Never showed any effort for us kids, and I don't remember him doing any kind of activity with us, even after the divorce, he never showed interest in us as a person. My mom is always surprised when she hears that my husband does stuff with the children, does help in the house, that I can go out with a friend and he cares for the children. She is also suprised my brother does all these things for his wife and baby girl, even though she raised him, and mostly alone. What I want to say is: We all get shaped by our experiences. My mom never experienced a good dad in her own life, not growing up, not having children herself. So for her, that stuff will always seem "strange". For me, I expect the father of my children to be involved with them, not only on a financial level. But still, I get teary eyed when he does things for the children, because my dad never did... and well... that still hurts it seems
That makes sense! I also like seeing fathers being good parents since my Dad was never very involved in my life and neither was my ex with our children.
Thank you! Yes, I do find it mildly insulting when men are praised for what should be basic skills and decency as though that were somehow extraordinary and worthy of notice. Raise the bar!
My dad was smart, he taught me how to cook eggs when I was 6. Not only did I know how to cook for myself at that point, but I also would cook for him! Teaching kids to take care of themselves and give mommy and daddy a break sometimes (age appropriate of course), now that should go viral!
Amen! It drives me crazy to see some people think that WE as mothers must do anything and everything for our kids because that’s our JOB! But, if a father did something to his kids, then they consider him superhuman!
Word! When I’m somewhere without my kids I try not to roll my eyes every time someone asks me if my husband is at home “babysitting”. Umm....no...he’s at home taking care of our children while I’m out of the house for a change doing X, Y, Z (usually grocery shopping 🙄). He’s their dad. That’s what he does.
My husband feels the same. When he takes our kids out somewhere, someone will inevitable ask him if he's babysitting...he says, "No, I'm Fathering," very politely.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! My husband doesn't see anything praiseworthy about how he takes care of our two sons. It is our job - his and mine - to raise them to be good people.
If we keep praising people for doing the barest of minimums required to be a decent human, the barest minimum is all we're going to get. Set the bar higher.
I got mom shamed a lot. And I totally agreed when people found that my husband did the same job I do everyday to our child he’s getting all the praises. Why can’t I?
I remember taking my baby girl to the chiropractor once and all the ladies there were flabbergasted that a MAN would bring his child in Without His Wife!! A few of them commented that their husbands would never do that. It took all my effort to not tell them that their husbands are useless. And let's not start on me taking my kid to baby play group. The mom's there keep giving me weird looks that say "What is this weird creature that just walked in with a child?"
Girl! You Just Came In HOT!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂 You Are Always Soooooooooo On Point! And Thank You For The EXTRA Admonition To Son-Raisers Like Me! Brava!💣💥❤👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
My ex-husband and I were talking about this today. We both have failed in different ways but we’re both focused on being the best examples to bring our children up to be good humans.
Exactly. I was changing wing mirrors/housing on our car and some guy walks past and says "that's a man's job isn't it." Well actually no that "man", my husband who works full time was inside playing with his daughter and cooking dinner. I was changing them so he could spend what little time he gets with her as I'm a stay at home mum. People need to get priorities right and stop judging.
Exactly! As if it’s extremely rare for women to know how to maintain a car if she has a car and drives or do other physically demanding tasks! I always say, there are no lists of things people are not allowed to do based on biological sex they were born with! Yes, one sex might be better doing certain things than the other, but that doesn’t mean people can’t do thing that aren’t typically their sex’s forte..also, some people might be better at doing things other sex usually are better at! Bottom line, I think everyone still has to know how to be self sufficient. Needs of life is the same, male, female or whomever else you identify as! (ie. we all need food, shelter, clothing, sense of belonging and acceptance in the society..etc)
Love your videos - makes me laugh every time. My husband has always made some of the meals, changed diapers, taken the kids out to play or to an appointment. He's always shared in most of the work. Isn't that what a parent does?
I am told all the time how lucky I am that my ex-husband pays alimony and picks up his kids. He is amazing, they say. And I always reply that no one ever tells me what a star I am for not leaving my kids. 🤷♀️
I praise my husband for being a great dad and show my appreciation for that. In return, he better appreciate and love that I'm a great mom! We all need recognition. That being said, your point is clear as day. Viral praise for the bare minimum is ridiculous.
Absolutely agree with all of it. Finally someone saying it loud. And the worse thing it is women who praise men for little things they do with their children and criticize women for any small things. Thanks for your video!
My husband was raised by his mother. So he's good at all of it acrylic nails painting nails curling hair braiding hair. Doesn't make him less of a man he's a hard-working Carpenter. That he's an even greater father and husband.
We took our son to eat pizza one day and my fiancee and our son are playing at the table. This older couple is watching them smiling and stuff. When I noticed the complimented my fiancee saying they've never seen a guy pay so much attention to his kid before. When we go out both of us love on our son play with our son while we're waiting for food and make sure to try to keep him occupied so he's not restless. When we go out shopping for groceries I push him around making motor noises and looking like an idiot just so our son is happy and doesn't try to climb out of the cart. I love that we get compliments on how adorable our son is and how cute he is when he and his father play around. But to be honest I don't think I've ever been complimented for paying any kind of attention to him. I don't mind really. But I don't see very many parents where I live male or female that acts as goofy as we do just to make our kid happy. It's not an all the time thing but we usually do something with him because if we don't he tries to climb under the table or out of the cart hoping to get into something. He's a handful.
THANK YOU! I hate this old adage! Listening to this made me so happy I got chills. You are writing a book right? I cannot wait for it to come out! If I'm mistaken.. then please write a book! 💖
Exactly! Men should be praised as they deserve it no matter the menial task. I hate mom shaming as well and mainly from women with no children, women with one newborn, and older women with grandkids. "How dare you allow your child jump off a couch! ABUSE!!!". As I always say: NOT YOUR KIDS! NOT YOUR RIGHT TO AN OPINION!
Thanks for this message. My little guy is only 5 months old, but my hope is that I can help raise him to be a good man and father one day if he so chooses.
Kristina, I agree with you.. I raised a great son who is currently serving in the US Navy as a Nuclear Tech & his Stepfather & I did what we could.. I hope your family is doing well & that you’re in a good mood when reading this..
We're expecting our first kid in November and my partner is already sick of the attitude of many people who make it seem like it's just a me thing and he's not really involved. He has also noticed that a lot of the books we have received intended for kids don't show a father figure.
I completely agree. It takes a village is oh so true when raising a little one. What we are doing as a society is the complete opposite. It takes a mother is what most of society sadly still thinks.
That question to mothers who work; “how do you balance it all?” Anyone ever ask a man how he balances his job and parenting? 🤔 I don’t have kids by the way 😆
Yes! This was so good! It seems like dad's are treated like babysitters. Nothing irritates me more than to hear a mom to down her husband by basically referring to him and treating him like a babysitter. I know some wonderful dads who are ripped apart by wives who treat them like they are stupid.
So true. At my house my boyfriend does most of the parenting because of my work schedule. Although I wish I could do a lot more I am very proud to have such a great partner raising my child.
Tired Mummy , completely agree with you there. Go put your feet up and relax for a whole 5 seconds before you are summoned to do something for the little people. 😊
Can we get more changing facilities to be unisex please. This is still a problem. My husband has no issue changing our daughter but there's a lot of places that still only have changing facilities in the female bathroom. Shared to Facebook!
This video goes with everything. In educational institutions, workplaces....everywhere. Somebody, please tell them that there's no difference between a parent, a student and an office worker.

Say it louder for those in the back!
Omg I love that!!!!
Yes, for the way back cheap seats!!

my busy life... Good one! God bless you!
Peace,
Lynne 🍃💜🍃
Just like it's sooooooo amazing when a woman can change her own tire or car battery😂😂😂😂💜💜💜💙💙💙
Michaela Defoy I don’t know but I got made fun of it trying to do a what they called men’s job
Exactly. I was changing wing mirrors/housing on our car and some guy walks past and says "that's a man's job isn't it." Well actually no that "man", my husband who works full time was inside playing with his daughter and cooking dinner. I was changing them so he could spend what little time he gets with her as I'm a stay at home mum. People need to get priorities right and stop judging.
You just spoke my mind ma'am!!!!

Helena Zachariášová you are amazing!
Agreed, you are amazing
You are lucky because a significant number of divorced men don't do those things. Doesn't make him awesome, though.
You're a STAR! Seriously, God bless you! Have a "GOD" day!
Peace, Lynne 🍃💜🍃
Your ex's decisions to fulfill or not his obligations has absolutely no effect on your total awesomeness. You ARE amazing.
I praise my husband for being a great dad and show my appreciation for that. In return, he better appreciate and love that I'm a great mom! We all need recognition. That being said, your point is clear as day. Viral praise for the bare minimum is ridiculous.
I love this and agree so much. So much more is expected of mothers!!
Amen sister 💜💜💜💜💜💜

As one that didn’t have a dad around growing up, yes I applaud the men that actually cares about their kids.
I learn english, and I’m love listening to you! thanks for the subtitles and for such amazing, interesting videos!
Amen sister, this is the truth!
ugh QUEEN GO OFF! everything you're saying is FAX
Damm for ur words are so powerful.... U inspired me so much .... Lots of love from guyana

Ouch. The truth hurts! So right
I wish there were a LOVE button for this video! Because I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! **\o/**
Thank you, Kristina, for being a voice of reason! :)
That question to mothers who work; “how do you balance it all?” Anyone ever ask a man how he balances his job and parenting? 🤔
I don’t have kids by the way 😆
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Girlllll, I love how you keep it real!!
Fantastic! So perfectly said!
Men are always shown as morals in commercials
Yes! This was so good! It seems like dad's are treated like babysitters. Nothing irritates me more than to hear a mom to down her husband by basically referring to him and treating him like a babysitter. I know some wonderful dads who are ripped apart by wives who treat them like they are stupid.
LOL - I happen to be making scrambled eggs when watching this.
Hahaha!
I'm writing contents about parenting tips for work and my sis said 'you should see kuzmic channel'
yeah I'm glad I followed her advice!
I feel bad for the women whose men expect them to do all the work
I love your videos! I raise 2 sons and I want them to be great men!
I laughed so hard on this. So friction true!
As a guy, I love this woman on so many levels.
You rock!! Spot on Kristina!
Amen! I love you so much! You keep me sane when I feel like I'm over the edge 😂
In most families the men are the best cooks anyway, especially in my family LOL
THANK YOU. LOUDER FOR EVERYONE EVERYWHERE💯💯💯💯
Another great video. Kristina. Xxx
Wow... Nyc message..
I've received the comment that I was babysitting my kids before. You don't babysit your own kids... you PARENT THEM!
haven't commented in a while, but you rock.
seriously dig your stuff. Keep up the great work!
TRUTH!
So true. At my house my boyfriend does most of the parenting because of my work schedule. Although I wish I could do a lot more I am very proud to have such a great partner raising my child.
As a man...AMEN!!!
Love your videos. Just finding the adverts before are becoming inappropriate and putting women down. Keep up the brilliant work Kristina! X
Tired Mummy , completely agree with you there. Go put your feet up and relax for a whole 5 seconds before you are summoned to do something for the little people. 😊
Thank you!!! This kind of things drive me nuts.
Yes!!! Preach it!
I’m not a mom, but this is frankly the best video ever.
I'm glad I finaly watched this. I'll share and send it to everyone I know.
Haha, your the best. ⚘
I agree with you and it should go for grandparents as well.
How so?
Word. Great video.
I think this goes so viral because those activities are not considered to be masculine. Although it's complete bs.
I agree with you! ❤👏
💯 true!
Lol yes! That's how I treat myself. You made hot breakfast instead of cereal !
Can we get more changing facilities to be unisex please. This is still a problem. My husband has no issue changing our daughter but there's a lot of places that still only have changing facilities in the female bathroom. Shared to Facebook!

Truth!!!
Does anyone know what that song is called in the background? And who is playing it? Awesome tune!
This is hilarious and true!
Yep...so agree with u
So very true!
Good work Kristina !
Dude, for real, you could literally get an agent and write sit coms for big money
Preach sister! I had too share this one on Facebook!
Preach it girl! So true!!
Hi Kristina :D I just subbed you #106,383 .. Love what you are saying here!! Awesome!!! Also a big thumbs up like!!! :D
This is great 😂
Preach!
Yes!!!! This video is this point!
Preach, sister!! 💗
Hahah! Love it! It’s so true!
Yes! Raise the standards ♡
The world view is so messed up. Let all give 100%. No slack for men or women. How do you come up with this stuff, the truth bomb for sure!
Scary, most men suck. Luckily I chose a guy who loves spending time with my baby. Yes, I’m a strong woman
I really dislike that saying "boys will be boys". Enjoyed.
Genius 😂🤣
Amen sister preach it.
your channel should be so much more popular
Hahahaha loved it😂😂😂😘😘
A-freaking-men!❤️
Thanks Kristina :) I love seeing this vid for the truth that it is.
i love your video so true .
