Proud Dad Has Creative Baby Proofing Idea

Moms and dads, grandmas and grandpas, we all have different ways of looking at the same thing! I mean, isn’t that how humans are? You can look at a glass that’s filled halfway, and some will say, “That’s half full!” Others will insist on the opposite, “No, that’s half empty!” And when you’re in a long-term committed relationship, you already know how your other half tends to approach things!

But what about when you’re faced with a unique problem, like the one in this video? Is the door half there or is the door half gone?

In this hilarious and off-the-wall video, dad tells us how he doesn’t want to buy yet another stair gate to keep their toddler out of harm’s way. Now, it’s not that dad doesn’t want to protect his baby boy, he just doesn’t want to keep shelling out the money for it! He’s already picked up four, and feels like “..the house is some weird crystal maze.” So, dad has another idea, but it’s risky.

The next scene is dad pointing the camera at the door in question. He closes it, but it’s only half! This low-tech, out-of-the-box creative thinker has cut the door in half and removed the top. He’s cut it right above where the latch sits, so the bottom half still closes and locks. He shows a quick demonstration, says, “Wait til she sees this,” and then looks out the window to see mom holding their baby boy and walking up.

Mom walks in with her eyes bulging out of her head, and her mouth wide. “What have you done to my doooor?!” she exclaims. She is shocked at what he’s done, but her surprise and aghast turn into giggles, as she touches her forehead in disbelief. She cannot believe what he’s done.

Mom is laughing at her husband’s wacky baby proofing idea, “What has daddy done now…?” but then seems to look shocked again. She wavers back and forth unsure what to feel upon discovering the current state of the kitchen door. She’s laughing, then fuming. Then laughing, then fuming again! It gets even funnier when dad starts cracking jokes to ease the bombshell. He calls her over, and she grumbles “What?” while leaning over the new hatch. “Not half bad, is it?”
