Complete transcript: Raised by an emotionally immature father? | How it affects you
Child: Have you ever noticed dad is emotionally immature?
Mom: Sadly I have.
Child: He blames everyone around him for the way he acts. He never apologizes to you, and it's pretty much his way or the highway. When things don't go his way he sulks, kind of like me.
Mom: Who knew you were noticing all that.
Child: Here's my take. I love Grandma, but as a mom she never held dad accountable. She never had any boundaries or limits. She coddled him around the consequences of his own actions. Because she was so overbearing and made him the golden child. He really did miss a lot of maturing. Over time he started to believe that a woman's role was to blindly praise him. And he never learned how to hold space for a woman's emotions. Or how to listen to difficult truths about himself. He gets so defensive because he doesn't understand that accountability is actually a form of love.
