I could name a million reasons why you should watch the television show “Glee”. There are amazing characters, entertaining dance scenes, great music and hilarious moments. But most of all, the times where Burt Hummel made us want to be a better person.
1. He showed us that nothing should stand in your way, not even society.
2. He taught us we should support those we love, even if it’s something you’ll need to work at.
3. He taught us that home is where the heart is.
4. He taught us that being different is a good thing, as long as you are being yourself.
5. He taught us the importance of equality in this world.
6. He taught us that there is no “right way” to do things, go out and start your own way.
7. He made us realize how important self-worth is.
8. He taught us that family is first.
9. He taught us to challenge ourselves, you never know what you'll succeed at.
10. He showed us how to grow as a person.
Before Kurt tells his father that he is gay, Burt catches him dancing to single ladies with two classmates. Burt was confused by it in the beginning, but years later Burt performs that exact routine for Kurt’s graduation gift. If that doesn’t show growth, I’m not sure what does.
Burt Hummel is easily one of the best TV dads out there.At first he was not sure how to adapt to the cards he was dealt, but instead of trying to change Kurt and his life, he chose to change himself for the better.
