What I've learned being a stay at home dad | Glen Henry | TEDxMidAtlantic

[accentplaya]

I was a stay at home dad going to college, with my wife the bread winner, the entire first year of my son's life. I woke up everyday exhausted with my son crying me awake after 2 or 3 hours of sleep. Ever since I graduated and started my career, I thank God every day for giving me an entire year of my son knowing that daddy's got him!

I had to listen to this twice.
I’m stay at home dad with two daughters. It does sound easy.. it’s far from the truth.
Man, when he said loneliness and inadequate, I cried.

What an AMAZING example of manhood.. what an exemplary illustration of fatherhood! Peace and light to you & your beautiful family!!

[talawoods]

PROFOUND:"The Father makes himself present and the children run after him" Much respect Glen!

[TwoPartyIllusion]

This guy has one of the best parenting/family channels on YT! Beleaf in fatherhood. Has 4 kids now! They are wonderful, real parents ♡

[hazeleyezluv]

When he said he was crying tears I laughed so hard! Man I can totally relate as a stay at home myself. I had tears flowing too. I don't care what anybody says, but to me marriage & kids are the biggest challenges you can ever have in life. You think college is hard & stressful? Oh no. Give me back that exam book please. 😂

Congrats Beleaf!!! You’re killin the game! 🙌🏿👊🏿🙏🏿😁
Keep striving!

[SeychelleSunshine]

So true. "Women's" work and unpaid work are so undervalued. Thank you for shedding light on a vastly under supported and undervalued full time + overtime job. It's arguably the most important one out there; what is instilled in children sets their path as adults.

I love being a stay at home dad. One of the best jobs I've ever had 😊

[AggieLady]

I’m a stay at home parent... you are talking to me! Your videos inspire me so much! You have no idea!

[HarrisLRobyn]

"When you stand in someone else's shoes you see the world from a different perspective", "We're walking on a certain path as parents - we're all in this together", "I thought that the father was supposed to pursue the child but it turns out the father makes himself present and the children run after him and that right there is a super power" *LOVE*

[GodCallsMeBeloved]

As a stay at home mother, I can honestly say that this talk was everything. Everything! Great job, Beleaf! You’ve inspired me in so many ways and helped me to see the beauty in all of this.

[marvinasmusic]

Beleaf you definitely have the gift of storytelling; verbally and visually!!! Congratulations on all of your success! I'm so happy for you and your family. You are changing the narrative of men and the roles they play in the family. It's refreshing. Peace and continued blessings to you, Yvette and the chocolate babies!!!

my dad was a stay at home dad and i can say that i would not want to have it any other way. it helped me build such a good relationship with both him and my mom. i had a very happy childhood and am proud of the person i am because of my parents choices

[JWPhotosanddesigns]

I was a stay at home parent of four. Back in the workplace now. But boy boy do, I understand the daily adventures. This was beautiful to watch. Big ups to you Beleaf.

[oliviamullins]

I know this is weird to say but watching you up there is like watching an old friend and hoping the best for them and having that nervous excitement. So proud of you, this gave me chills and was inspiring. Thank you for being my favorite YouTuber!

[ParisDavisDean]

I smiled so hard when those cute babies ran to their dad. This is so beautiful; loved it. Love the entire story. Touched my heart. Thanks for sharing.

[stephaniecintron]

Ohh my goodness! Started from the bottom now we are here! I am so glad that you are able to tell your story! Praying for many more opportunities like this to come.

[TPKProductions]

It frustrates me how talented and hard working artist like Beleaf couldn’t live off of their music. Streaming has condensed the music industry a lot

[Chinchínbaby]

This has to be the funniest and most realistic ted talk ever 😂😭
