damn, looking back at this vid, can't imagine how everyone here feels about making these jokes. especially bart. i expect it'll be taken down pretty soon, but i do understand it was just jokes. Nobody expects extremes.

[@GYSMelanie5]

I'm saying though, as a fan, as an older lady, Bart is truly an incredible son. The lengths he'll go to for his family , his parents in particular is amazing. My daughter and son whom I love dearly WOULD NEVER go to those same lengths. I would like to think they would. I'm the youngest of 7 as well not a narcissist but that's really hard dealing with one. A few of my siblings are. Just thank you Bart for being an amazing son. It says allot.

[@zuychan]

Why do you think your kids won’t do that for you?

[@GYSMelanie5]

@@zuychan I would hope they do but Bart just seems completely from them. Maybe my daughter but I think my son is too wrapped up in his own life.

My condolences to Bart. I feel sorry for him. Understanding his parental situation, I’m surprised how his eq is. He tried to bring his dads siblings together which is commendable.

[@katherinep708]

It takes years and years of learning. I remember in Bart & Geo’s podcast that Bart has come a long way emotionally. He used to be so bad (understandably) but in the podcast Geo said they had to go through some learning

[@evf824]

Oh wow, they’re joking about suicide and it actually happened.

[@minty8429]

They can't see the future. And it seems like Bart's dad has said this for years. Bart tried to help his dad but at some point there's only so much you can do. Imagine your ex telling you if you don't get back together with him/her they will kill themselves. Are you going to do it? Will you blame yourself if your ex kills him/herself if you don't give in to their demands?

[@IamG3X]

@@minty8429 well I have a heart so I would kinda blame myself. If my ex decided to go that way.

[@evf824]

@@minty8429 you’re right, we can’t see the future which is why we shouldn’t minimize or joke about a topic so serious. It’s time we stop using “I’m going to kill myself” as a phrase and/or use it to victimize someone. If my ex made such comments, I wouldn’t make jokes about it. I’m also a mental health therapist who specifically works with patients who suffer from SI so I’m also coming from a whole different lens to this situation. But let me say, these types of conversations like they had do not help and enhance the stigma of mental health.

[@minty8429]

@@evf824 you say you wouldn't joke about it yet provide no solution if your ex demands you meet their needs or else they will kill themselves. You also have to consider some people refuse to get help. Even Bart's mom tried to get his dad to go to the doctor and he refused.

[@evf824]

@@minty8429 you never requested solutions or suggestions in how to help, but since we’re on the topic. Validate and emphasize. Point out symptoms and behaviors and express concern (people will know though if the concern isn’t genuine). If the person ignores or has difficulty accepting help, then bring other people in. Other family members that can be an additional voice and eye. Go with them to a therapy session. Let me them know that even though “I’m going to k*ill myself” might just be a phrase others say, you’re concerned & uncomfortable with the phrase being used as a joke. Seek out resources. Call a hotline. Not every attempt is preventable and we can’t save a person, but learning how to discuss mental health is important and decreasing the jokes surrounding su*cide is just as important. Someone’s jokes are any persons reality.

[@Gythsysgyhe]

Now I’m wondering if his dad watched this video

[@roygbiv9038]

Nah. I feel he was feeling lonely for awhile and moving back in with his ex was probably a last ditch effort for companionship. But hearing that his mom had no intention of ever being back with him romantically but just wanted him to be a roommate, I think he felt more like a burden for everyone. Although Bart and Geo say they wanted him to live with them, maybe sometimes when there’s a disagreement, he felt he was unwanted, even if it’s not true.

[@queenofneverland9007]

@@roygbiv9038 Bart's dad told Bart he wanted to keep living with them and Bart told him he can't live with them anymore so he kind of had nowhere to go where he would not be alone so he felt like he sad to go be with his ex wife.

[@justinlover4ev]

I really understand Bart here. I think he may have just wanted his family to get along but his dad just doesn’t get what it takes to compromise. Maybe taking him to a Taiwanese /Chinese therapist or have some family counseling would be good? I don’t know at this point just want you to be happy. Ps: GEO is such a great wife / partner / Bestfriend to Bart. The fact that she’s so understanding and even ask if Bart wanted his dad t move in is so lovely. ❤

She also wasn't driving so when she had been living in Cali before they would have to drive to her. She only recently came back about 6 months ago.
