I don’t really see any relevance of the census bureau data to the commercials that OP complaining about. Clearly in the commercials the dads are present and involved, and yet they are made fun of.

As for your personal experience, you have a point there. I would say it is more because of the gender roles than anything else. Even in the western society, working moms are expected to take care of home and kids.

I think the data is important because it reflects societal trends. advertisers definitely pick on on the census bureau data and target the audience that’s buying. in housholds where daddy is missing or not doing much … its the moms doing all the groceries/dressing the kid/buying toys … it pays to flatter the buyer.

it also depends on the prespective of the person watching the commercial … i saw the one aahmed posted (the kitchen mess one) and i didnt think oooo dad sucks. actually i smiled … it made me think dad = fun. i wasn’t offended … but then im not a man.
