If he is productively working, then he needs to balance work and his RL responsibilities. His review on this device does not have higher importance than his baby, and the way he worded it is misogynistic (but like I said some men like to sound like tough boy when it comes to this, overstating their power in family while in reality he may get pussy whipped over something like this). As for the examples you mention, I only know Asmongold (and Pewdiepie from committing suicide). Asmongold is a child in an adult body. But I think that is true for a lot of influencers. I find them overrated but they can consider themselves lucky in their niche. Either way, they're exceptions, not the rule of thumb.

Lots of people don’t balance their responsibilities in the way you are talking about. For example, soldiers on deployment or travel sales people, or people who work foe international organizations or migrant farmers… all have to leave home for weeks to months in order to earn money.

Are we assuming that he works like this all year long? It seems that he did a short stint of work “heads down” in an AR/VR device to write a story. That is analogous to his saying “Hey, Family, I need to take a trip for work for the next week. See you when I get back”. That seems pretty normal and not at all irresponsible.

"does not have higher priority" Where do you have ANY evidence that his kid is being neglected? We are literally talking about 1 week. 1 freaking week. A long week of over time. "misogynistic" lol working with his wife as a team to take care of their kid is misogyny? I'm sorry but you obviously have a different definition. Because there's nothing bad about sacrificing for your family - even if you have fun while doing so. Just like my question about you having proof of anything bad about this exchange as one half of the couple... what proof do you have of anything nefarious, misogynistic (other than the wording you don't approve of) or being "pussy whipped". I question your motives as your statements show you have your own bias that makes having a real conversation with you questionable. "exceptions, not the rule of thumb" Correct. They are exceptions because they have fun doing what they do. the vast majority of people don't enjoy what they do. They work to live. Most people have jobs - not careers they love. They make money to provide for those they love (even if that's only themselves). The rule is people sacrifice for themselves and their family. The only part of this conversation that's the exception is the fact that this guy gets to play with an over priced toy and gets paid for it. He's still sacrificing (and without proof of neglect or harm to wife/kid - at least no more than any other 9/5 job would be considered). Nothing you've said challenges my position that he's lucky for doing it but he's still sacrificing for his family. Props to him.
