Why you should bring your baby to the bar | Stacey McLachlan | TEDxVancouver

When did having a child become a one-way ticket to a "black hole of parenthood"? Magazine editor and comedian Stacey McLachlan breaks down the rise of parental isolation and makes a hilariously sharp case for why we desperately need to stop shunning children from adult social environments, for the benefit of parents and non-parents alike.
