In this YouTube we see a bunch of “super dads” playing with
their children. In today’s society we sometimes forget about these great
patriarchal individuals teaching proper ethics and morals. Today, it is all
about the parents and families experiencing turmoil and unease. It is easy to
get lost in these stories about parents hurting their children and neglecting
them, so as a whole we have almost lost our sense of family and the connections
we need to have as family as a society. The main thing to think about here is
the obligation of proper parenting. When that duty isn’t met then something has
to be done about it. We cannot get caught up as a society and as individuals
about what others are doing, but what is best for our own family.
This made
me thing about the socially constructed problems that we are facing today.
Parents are always worrying about the exposure to social media and different
postings on the internet that could expose their children to content that they
do not want them seeing, but the ironic thing is the parents give these
children the access. Many of the people from older generations always ask what
is wrong with my generation and the younger generation, but they are the ones
that raised us. Society gives so much freedom to children with cell phones and
electronic devices like laptops and tablets that it is impossible for them not
to continue to stumble upon content that is meant for an older audience. Now,
off of any device you can go onto vine or twitter and find videos of young kids
fighting or swearing and being disrespectful. That alone blows my mind because
if my parents would have ever seen me doing something like some of the content
in videos on the internet, I would have been in for the punishment of my
lifetime. It just is almost comical that society gives children a loaded gun
and expects them not play around with it. So in conclusion I found this video
extremely refreshing compared to all the other insane videos circulating the
web and we need to reward all the “super dads” out there.
