It took me 15 long years to finally let go of my dysfunctional biological father, get a grip of the image of the spirit of fatherhood and then try to embody it myself. I basically became my own father - from a spiritual point of view. That one is weird to me, but after all those years of turmoil it is finally feeling right.

My father was a violent man and a self-centered one and as you might expect, we never had a close relationship. In my early 30's I became a step-father and even accepted to become legal guardian to the son of a then-girlfriend-now-estranged-ex. Not because I was trying to be a father myself (I never had any kids of my own), but because he was the only child to a single mother and I had seen what can happen to kids like that growing up, because there were a few kids who's mom was a drunk etc, and I didn't want that to happen to this little boy. We developed an amazing relationship which still exists today, I am now in my mid 50s and he in his early 20s. My father never understood the harm he caused and it's taken me the better part of a life to patch myself back up into something approximating a competent man and what I can say to this is don't wait around for people to become worthy of you, if they are not, move on and go be good on your own.

If more men, REAL men, stopped even considering a single mother to be an option, then maybe women would start taking marriage and having children a lot more seriously, and picking men they stay together with for their lives. Then men would have to strive to be worthy of women of that caliber. It would be a positive feedback loop. Society is so messed up though. Corrupted for over 100 years. As women, if you have a child with a man, you had better stay with that man, so you had better pick wisely. Not for the man, not for the marriage, but for the children and the future of humanity.

As my father left when I was 1, and mom married different idiots, I never really had a dad. Like Dr Peterson says, I assembled my father from TV, role models, teachers etc. The problem is... when I felt betrayed by them (my own perception as I was a kid & they weren't really my dad), it built up passive aggressiveness over the years while also crushing my ego & stunted my emotional development & manifested very negatively as an adult. When I became a dad, it did serve to teach me to want to always be there for my son... but i had to fight the messed up "kid" vs the devoted "father" vs the terrible boyfriend and a mish mash of immaturity & victim stance (& not even knowing how to make friends). It took harsh lessons for me to finally start to grow up... but I got lucky & had God on my side... and finally recognized Him as the only Father who has ever been there, which is a conundrum in & of itself. Tricky subject. I appreciate the doc addressing this! 👍👍

The advice about rescuing one’s own dysfunctional father at the end of this video is absolutely brilliant. To summarize: for those with dysfunctional fathers, reconstitute the spirit of the father from its presence in family, community, and culture. Use that reconstituted father to guide your moral growth and conduct so that you become the sort of person who is a role model to your own dysfunctional father and see if it helps him to change. I’m floored. It’s brilliant, and I do think it’s the best the son could possibly do. As usual, thank you Dr. Peterson.
@ThinhNguyen-md6hu10 ай бұрын
You can't imagine how important and rightly timed this video is to me at the moment. I'm going through a rough path and is struggling with putting my life together and potentially my surroundings. My father's father died in the Viet Nam - US war when he was 3 years old. My mother's mother died of leukemia when my mother was 13 years old and she was left with a neglective father figure + 2 siblings whom she put through university. It's a miracle how my father survived all those years as a runaway kid since he was 16 surviving opium addiction with half of his friends now either died from alcohol abuse or cancer in their 40s and 50s. With out a doubt we are a very messy group of 4 people with many of our problem now clashing on a fairly regular basis. But I did find Dr.Peterson's work and others similar to him helped me tremendously in mediating and negotiating internal conflicts as well as putting my life in order (which I am guilty of failing miserably by my own standard). Growing up I learned quickly not to lie to either of my parents even at my own peril and the sense of impending danger from lack of discipline haunted me even as a child. I was one of those boys who was failing academically, slowly at first then all at the same time. Then depression hit me like a truck and I can remember the days when I couldn't differentiate day time from night time, it was truly horrible and I don't wish it on anyone. Recently I realized from your work that my life is a multi generational "project" and I am in deep pain upon this realization. It is now 5am and it has been a while since I could go to sleep early. I must admit to have almost given up on trying to fix my tendency for chaotic behavior born out of fear of the unknown. I would be greatful if you can consider "trying" out the "Conversations with god" book series by Neale Donald Walsh (for lack of better word). This book series have helped my through my toughest time before I get to know your work more seriously. It to me represents how the new age movement and perhaps the postmodern movement could have been in great detail and how the post modern movement have warped these values to their worst versions in contrast. And I really like psychology btw, people around me said it is as if "my calling", of which I am very skeptical about. Have a nice day Dr.Peterson and his team, family. Sincerely from VietNam. P/s: eagerly looking forward to the debut of Peterson Academy.

Unfortunately it was long after he died that I realised this. Anyhow, I have realised I have a tendency to hate men, to classify them all as rapists, liars, cheaters, weak-willed, users, paedophiles etc. I must thank you and other brilliant men like the late Dr Frances Schaeffer for unwittingly becoming such great father-figures to me, for modelling what men can and should be like. And yes, this admiration for certain men extends to the greatest "Abba" (Hebrew for "daddy") there is: the good Lord Himself.

My intepretation of what he just said is this: (1) the father and the spirit of your father are different (2) the spirit of the father represents an archtype that your father may not possess (3) if your father doesn't possess that archtype then you have to shape and make it yourself by contact with those from where you can extract it (4) after you did that you can project it unto yourself and embody that (5) by embodying it you then became yourself a role model with that "spirit" (6) if you then have acquired that "spirit" and are a role model your father can be saved from the belly of the beast Now the way I'm gonna interpret father as opposed to mother is that the father represents begeting in its etymology. He then makes a reference to the great father which is god and is the king of kings. King etymology has to rule. Now the way kings ruled things was through a principle. Hence you can view each king as representing a principle of governance. You can see then how each king moleded his society different according to the principle of governance that he used to mold it. A king of kings here by analogy would be the principle of principles or the first principle. Such as first order principles for instance. Now if father represents begeting and it's connected to god that's also a king or the one who uses a principle of governance then from this it follows that father may represent the birthing or begeting of that principle. So father would essentially be the originator of the principle or archtype. By analogy based on everything I have said so far it means this in a simple way. (1) your father may not have developed that principle (2) extract from those that have parts of it to develop your own (3) adopt and embody that principle (4) by doing so your father may adopt it too However I'm still not quite sure what the beast or whale represents here in this instance.

My father, unfortunately, was a victim of past bad decisions of his parents and his grandparents. He tried to impose the same hatred that he felt towards them to us, but my mom, for some reason, saw this coming and intervened. She basically threw herself under the bus to save us from what my father tried to bring to us. My father is now dead, and my mom is still alive. The battle that my mom had to go through, I could not imagine. I saw her cry. It made me hate my dad. My mom said to forgive. I remember Jim Carey's speech about salvation. He said suffering leads to salvation. When we are at that crossroad, we either choose to forgive, which leads to healing, or we can choose hatred, which leads to vengeance, and quite possibly hurting others. Long story short, after hearing what JP said, I think I am a better man compared to the past generations. I do not blame them. I see it as if they offered their lives to set an example hoping that someday, one of us will see what they have done and take that as a life lesson so that we won't have to repeat the same mistake.

But to the contrary, because there is a lot of love there still, when I raised this concern with him he managed to change at least when he is around me to not bring those issues into my life when we see eachother. I don't know if that has resulted in any great benefit to him when we're not together, but I think it has helped to show him there is another way to be.

Instead, one should test the outskirts of the perimeter presided over by their father's auspices and test their skills, however limited, in exploring the neighboring frontier. Doing as Pinocchio did is ill advised. If your father loves you, he will certainly get swallowed by the whale of legal fees bailing your horrendous ass out of jail.

I'm sorry I'm a dirty rotten bastard towards my father who sought out the belly of the beast to dwell. I cannot rescue him nor do I desire to. He sold me to his father the Devil. It's been the bane to me for all my days.

You write well. It appears you don’t need to really rescue your own Dad, but the Father you become.

What are you supposed to do if your beloved father died when you were a child, “fathers” you reach out to only want sex from you, and God is silent? I’m so lost and I don’t know how to solve this. Attractive orphaned women are alone in this world, perhaps except for their religious communities. And even there, beware. It’s a miracle I’m still a virgin, given all the people who have tried to take advantage of me from 13 years old on to now, my early 30s. Appreciate you Dr. Peterson, have done so since 2016. But not all of us have this luxury. I don’t know what is left to do for people like me except to die.

I have no interest in saving my father. He lived his life and made his choices. His life has already played out to whatever it is.

My father's a great dad, but he's not perfect. I'm 60 now , and try not to get emotionally involved with his crap. I guess there's the non caring dad, and then there's the controlling dad. I'm 60, and just live my (successful) life with my wife of 40 years, ignoring the advice. I guess a person will project their own faults and weaknesses onto others.

Ha! I love this comment. I guess in some ways we never grow up, dad's always dad. You're lucky he's still around!

Mateo 7:9-11 TLA »Nadie le da a su hijo una piedra, si él le pide pan. Ni le da una serpiente, si le pide un pescado. »Si ustedes, que son malos, saben dar cosas buenas a sus hijos, con mayor razón Dios, su Padre que está en el cielo, dará buenas cosas a quienes se las pidan. Dios es tu Padre y la Santísima Virgen María es tu madre y siempre están contigo.

Oh it's pretty silly, if it really happened I'm sure that the guy was picked up by a UFO or something that primitive man lacked the understanding to describe, you know Nostradamus described his interpretation of our times from visions projected in midair but did this primitive man really understand what he was seeing, it's the same with the mark of the beast, who knows what the mark or the beast is supposed to be, everything would look like magic or monsters or beasts to these primitive Wizards!

The problem is people misinterpret symbols. It's simply a way for your subconscious to communicate. Don't ignore the symbols because they are real and useful, but try to actually understand them on a fundamental level that is related to only you. The way to do that is just observe how they make you FEEL.

The truth seems to be that, in order to save anyone from any situation or pattern is to first save yourself. Instead of starting by assembling a father figure among human examples, seek God first and then go from there. Not the other way around. Humanities should be replaced with a course on God and the word of God. After all, Harvard and Yale were religious institutions before the introduction of secular subjects like humanities and liberal arts. Both humanities and liberal arts replaced God and the evidence shows it was the wrong way to go, priority of oneself and ones own ideas is wrong. Set the path first, then learn in humility. Never forget, " A man has a way that he THINKS is right, but leads only to death." Sincerely, Jesus.
