No. That's more work than the majority of people put into their kids.

It's good the shock the endocrine system every once in a while. Everynight of this would be a problem.

In fact he's teaching his kids that gender is binary.

Bad parent? You have to be kidding me!! You are awesome! You are an excellent parent!
Everyone should teach their kids to be like what Robert Heinlein said, "A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.".
They all have to start somewhere. :-)

Spending time with kids and teaching them something new, why do you think you are a bad parent?
It's not as if you will always let them stay up so late, and binary isn't going to be practical in real world, but none of that would make you a bad parent.

I was joking in the title. I've been letting them stay up until 11 for the summer. The other night they were being bad and were still awake at midnight. I'm working on building a PC, so I had the case out and parts laying around and had them come out to talk about how it works.
