My Dad had a moment like this with me. He was a more traditional man, military man. He knew I was gay, but we did not talk much about it. This was 30 years ago. I had three brothers. They were talking about which of them were bringing their GFs to Christmas. One of them asked me. I said of course not. Dad asked why. I replied, I know you would be uncomfortable, and its your home, you should be comfortable in your home. He paused, paused, looked me directly in the eye. " You let that be MY PROBLEM, son. You bring him and he will be more than welcome anytime. Are we clear?" That's how I learned what a real father was.
That's really good of you. Everyone in these videos is always saying that they wish that they had a dad like Burt (I'm not trying to put them down or anything, I'm saying this with all due respect), and yes it would be great to have someone like that, but you can't change what you have or don't have in your life. It's who YOU choose to be. So instead of just wishing that you had that kind of person, BE that person.
I loved the fact that Burt eventually understood his son. His process was amazing because it's not something that you see every day. Their relationship is very good
THIS SCENE IS SO POWERFUL. It's still one of my favorite scenes from Glee ever, in fact this episode and this scene is what got me hooked on the show. Colfer and O'Mally are brilliant actors. Thank you so much
Burt will always be honest with Kurt he never lies to him like it just proves it here and like when he says to Kurt dude your gay I mean really gay you sing like Diana Ross and dress like you are in a chocolate factory so when Kurt got gay bash and Burt says look at your beautiful face he was being honest and Kurt says he's not worried about it
Revisiting this show. Burt Hummel was probably the first time I had seen a father/parent that reacted the way all gay kids growing up wish their’s had reacted. We all deserve love like this in our lives, otherwise it makes it extremely difficult to love ourselves. We need to love ourselves before we can love someone else, but you need to be taught what real love is supposed to feel like by those who directly influence our development into adulthood.
Thank you for posting this. I hadn't seen this scene since its original broadcast (you can always find "Rose's Turn," but never the scene that follows it), and always regarded it as the breakthrough for Kurt & Burt. I always lose it when Kurt barely gets out the line, "I missed you, Dad," before Burt interrupts with "Oh, c'mere," and embraces him. That's pure love.
Burt is an amazing father but man, I understand Kurt’s pain here. Hearing your parents say they imagined life with you differently, especially when you fundamentally can’t be that version for them, hurts. Even if Burt doesn’t mean it in a bad way, it just sucks. And that’s not necessarily Burt’s fault, he always means well when it comes to Kurt. That still doesn’t make it ok. I’m mixed and are closeted, idk how likely it is that I’ll ever have something like this in my life. But if you do, then please cherish it.
thanks for posting - this scene has always stayed with me - yes it's idealized but a lot of parents are striving to do this - my father was from a different generation
Burt is truly one of the best tv dad's out there. This issue even goes beyond straight parents having a gay kid. So many parents end up with kids who just are not like them but they try to push their interests onto them so they can bond over the stuff they already like. Burt telling Kurt it's not his job to work on their relationship, it's just his job to be him is beautiful and more parents should learn this. It's great to try to expose your kids to new interests and it's amazing if you find something you have in common to bond over, but it's not your kid's job to like the things you like, it's not even their job to meet you halfway. They're the child, as the parent, if you want to bond with your child inevitably you're going to have to do the work to go to them and take an interest in the things they're interested in, even if you're not. If your kids like chess? Learn to play with them? Dance? Take a class together if you can or even just watch dancer tutorials on TH-cam at home with them. Again it's great to expose them to new things, but don't just push what you like onto them and automatically expect they will too, and please, please don't be disappointed in them when they don't take an interest in things you like because kids pick up on that sort of thing a hell of a lot earlier in life than most people think and it sticks with them for a long time.
They could have written burt to be a downright homophobic bully but I’m so happy that he was the sweetest dad in the world with his son, supportive but learning and realistic.❤ The clips of him playing tea party with his little boy during ‘I want to hold your hand’ get me every time. Also where kurt got attacked later on and burt says ‘look what they did to your beautiful face’ 😢
If at least 1/3 of all parents in the world would be as loving, understanding, and ready to work on themselves there would be significantly less work for psychologists.
Neither of my parents were very demonstrative, but I remember a time when I was very young, and we'd gotten home late at night, and I'd fallen asleep. I partially woke up when my dad was carrying me into the house, and I remember feeling so safe in his arms. I just wish I'd had other moments like that, with both him and with my mother. When I was older, and going across the state to seek a job, when I hugged her, she stiffened up as if I'd done something wrong, which made me sad.
@@brilovesblainebrionesbrion5856 wtf Brittney is as smart as eintestine first of all and why do u hate her so much Kurt is not real and is not your boyfriend and btw KURT TOLD HER TO KISS HIM
I am a gender fluid transfemme biromantic asexual. My parents are Transphobic, homophobic, conservative, Republicans. I’m autistic, and have a hard time with emotions, but my emotions were so clear during this scene, that I cried. I wish that my parents were like this. (Sorry for waffling. I just felt like venting...)
Everyone: "Omg, you're such an amazing singer. How are you not on Broadway? Such passion!" Me: *in the back of my head* Because fine don't sing like I just sung.
kurt couldn’t stop playing the victim this whole series, but failed to empathise with brit and santana when they were maybe the only two friends he had who personally knew what he was going through.
failed to empathize? you mean when he was projecting regarding santana’s proposal in a stupid, solved in one episode, shown simply by kurt and santana dancing together at the end, never talked about again conflict? or when santana empathized more with finn than kurt and blaine just trying to help her when she was outed? you have tunnel vision
Burt is the definition of a great father.

You're dad has one big heart. Hats off to him.i Don't know how your dad sounds,but I read that in butt's voice
*burt 's
Damn this autocorrect
That's beautiful :)
@@annatimberlake7 LMAO the fact you didnt edit the comment, just replied has me dead😭 butt
@@mlap1013 I didn't want to edit,I found it funny
“Fine doesn’t sing like you just sung”
The way he says "it breaks my heart" is very emotional 😭
Hey Abby
People are always like, “I wanna have a dad like that” but I’m here like, “I wanna BE that dad”

Anu Mai preach

Aaaw thats sweet
Yeah its hard to be like him..
that's the best son-father-realationship ever
they are so cute😍❤
No they’re just the best relationship in general
I loved the fact that Burt eventually understood his son. His process was amazing because it's not something that you see every day. Their relationship is very good
BURT! BEST DAD EVER
THIS SCENE IS SO POWERFUL.
It's still one of my favorite scenes from Glee ever, in fact this episode and this scene is what got me hooked on the show. Colfer and O'Mally are brilliant actors.
Thank you so much
They were really like dad and son,beautiful chemistry between them
Every gay man should have a papa Burt in their life the end is the best part 😭💖
"This thing with you is going to be hard."
"Thing with me? You mean being gay?"
"Yeah! Being gay."
Burt's honesty is so worthy of respect
Burt will always be honest with Kurt he never lies to him like it just proves it here and like when he says to Kurt dude your gay I mean really gay you sing like Diana Ross and dress like you are in a chocolate factory so when Kurt got gay bash and Burt says look at your beautiful face he was being honest and Kurt says he's not worried about it
Kurt is my favorite character and no one can change my mind
And so cute
He also mine blaine didn't deserve him
@@charlenerafferty3534 full on team Kurtofsky all the way
Kurt and Dave made the whole show for me
every child needs a papa burt in their life.
"Kurt. I'm dumb. But I'm not stupid." 🤣
Burt and Kurts relationship was really the only good thing about glee 😂
It sounded like Kurt said "I miss you daddy" So precious!!
He did and it had me crying

I'm sitting in my bed and I was crying 😢
BEST.FATHER.SON.MOMENT!!!!😭😂
"That...and a majority ownership of an entire store is all we got!"
Funny line mixed in to a great emotional scene
Kurt is sweet!!!! I like him very very much!!!!
Me, too, he deserves better😊💓
That was a well-written scene. It was genuine and realistic
The best and most healthy relationship of this show
"I have no idea what that song was about, but fine don't sing like you just sung." Burt being Burt.
This is still the most beautifully acted scene of the show 💛

Yeah, but at least he said it in a calm way with good and honest intentions. My dad screamed it to me
i havent even watched the vid yet but i already want to cry
I love Kurt and Burt together, I wish my dad was like this with me
The scène hadn't even started yet and im already crying
Amazing actors and well written scene
Chris Colfer's my favorite he's so Handsome!😊💗
@@briloveskurthummelbriones1565 same here. I think not only an amazing actor but such a talented writer and just all around nice guy!
He IS nice, he's Sweet, soft-spoken, and a very smart and kind person that everyone wishes to meet, and even me😊💗
Burt is Dad of the Year. Every year. I'd forgotten how brilliant all his scenes were and how much his character must've meant to a lot of people :D
this scene warms my cold dead heart
I can’t watch this scene with out crying
They're both such good actors!!!
I literally cried after watching this again.
Best Dad Ever 💕
Awe I forgot about his little bang flick he used to do!! 💖
thanks for posting - this scene has always stayed with me - yes it's idealized but a lot of parents are striving to do this - my father was from a different generation
I can't find my heart. I think it was stolen. I've also got the chills, but I can't seem to figure out why.
This litterely made me cry.
Same honestly
omg thank you soooo much!!! I've waited so long for this incredible scene!!!
I AM NOT CRYING YOU ARE
BEST. DAD. EH.-VER. !!!!!!!.
don't know why i'm crying in the club right now
Camilla said no crying in the club bitch

Burt is literally one of the best dad in the world
God......I can’t stop crying 😭💕💕
Burt is my fav character..he tries and honest but he tries wirh most sincerity and care
They are the best Dad/Son Relationship ever
This was the first scene on Glee that actually made me cry
He is the best dad
I always wanted a dad like Kurt’s and I was too distracted with my own mess to notice I already had one.
Burt is still my favourite character till this day
Dad of the year!
...... any year1
Can you upload the scene where Burt has "The Talk" with Kurt?
😬
Doesn't understand the song but still gets its about pain and being over looked, a true father right there
It's great, that almost the same scene (except it was mother and daughter) was in "Gypsy" (right after "Rose's turn"!)
They could have written burt to be a downright homophobic bully but I’m so happy that he was the sweetest dad in the world with his son, supportive but learning and realistic.❤
The clips of him playing tea party with his little boy during ‘I want to hold your hand’ get me every time. Also where kurt got attacked later on and burt says ‘look what they did to your beautiful face’ 😢
Burt is a great dad

BURT IS THE BEST FUCKING PERSON ALIVE
I'm dumb but I'm not stupid
"Kurt, I'm dumb but I'm not stupid."
Me: aren't those basically the same.
Burt loves his son no matter what and accepts him for who he is❤
Neither of my parents were very demonstrative, but I remember a time when I was very young, and we'd gotten home late at night, and I'd fallen asleep.

could u post the scene before rose's turn, when kurt and brittany are walking hand to hand and burt comes talk to him?
I hate seeing Brittany with Kurt he's mine Brittany you little dumb nasty bitch! She can't have him!😡
@@brilovesblainebrionesbrion5856 wtf Brittney is as smart as eintestine first of all and why do u hate her so much Kurt is not real and is not your boyfriend and btw KURT TOLD HER TO KISS HIM
I told you to shut up about Brittany I hate her
@@brilovesblainebrionesbrion5856 OK tnx for proving your a troll ;P
I'm a Brittany hater but I'm a Kurt lover
This situation sucks all around. Burt is trying, and succeeding. But the problem is that Kurt doesn't want him to _have_ to try.
Like how the kind of mirrored the ending of Gypsy after Kurt(Rose) sang.
“But fine don’t sing like you just sung” 😢
KING OF GLEE IS BURT HUMMEL
I am a gender fluid transfemme biromantic asexual. My parents are Transphobic, homophobic, conservative, Republicans. I’m autistic, and have a hard time with emotions, but my emotions were so clear during this scene, that I cried. I wish that my parents were like this. (Sorry for waffling. I just felt like venting...)
I wish I could be this honest with my parents
1:35 maybe me want to cry
I posted the script on my blog in 2010, came here to check on my fav Chris in 2018. Love u n RIP Mark Salling.
Everyone: "Omg, you're such an amazing singer. How are you not on Broadway? Such passion!"
Me: *in the back of my head* Because fine don't sing like I just sung.
kurt couldn’t stop playing the victim this whole series, but failed to empathise with brit and santana when they were maybe the only two friends he had who personally knew what he was going through.
