- In the lead up to Fathers Day, Dr. Warren Farrell reminds us of the importance of fathers being actively involved in the lives of children, particularly with their boys.
The research of Dr. Farrell and 'The Boy Crisis' co-author John Gray shows that present fathers are vital for setting healthy boundaries, channeling testosterone in a positive manner and, among many other beneficial outcomes, maximising academic performance.

"family dinner nightmare" sounds like my childhood. This man is so right. Jordan Peterson first got me onto this idea of good fathers & boundaries & this furthers that
Jordan Peterson has been a strong influencer for many to "clean their room".
I was privilege to have a great father . Strong dutchman who took his honeymoon to Canada and never left. He was awesome to my mom and brother and me , we came first and it showed. Some of the best years of my life were painting with him in the summer although I didnt realize it fully then. Man I miss that guy.
One parent at a time is RIGHT!!!
Fathers especially--and Mothers!
Excellent initiative!
This project should be initiated immediately throughout the nation-and the entire world!
Suddenly, my inability to complete projects and distract myself so easily makes sense. Short term gratification expectancy is a real problem. That coupled with imposter syndrome when pursuing any goal I feel I'm lesser than sends me spiraling into a depression that I can only numb with mindless CZcams content. I've wasted years sitting here trying to ignore the feeling that I don't belong in this world. My fear of failiure is so strong that I never take a chance on me. Nobody else ever did.
I will say, this mom/dad boundary setting/enforcement dynamic rings true in my home. Of course, it's a generalization, but generalizations exist for a reason.
This video reminds me of people I knew 50 years ago.
thanks a lot, John Anderson, you introduced me very important man Dr. Warren Farrell. :)
I appreciated that he acknowledged that some mums are the dads. Boundary setting & do-able fair enforcement is crucial.
Dr. Farrell is For Real!🫡
Fantastic! Thank you
Not with me, it didn't! ..LOL I was a single mum so I had to be both parents while raising my daughter. I was the disciplinarian and always stuck to my guns. Unfortunately, I ended up being the bad guy. My daughter always got carte blanche from her father during visits and even now as an adult. No boundaries were ever set by her father. One thing you may have to consider is that some absent fathers try to make up for their lack of parenting by giving in to every whim of their child's as compensation for not having been there. This gives the wrong message and encourages the child to play off the parents against each other.
To be fair to him, he did say it could be either a male or female parent acting as “dad”
Well done to you though, bringing up children is hard enough, with a cooperative partner.
@@c.c.9539 why was he miserable with you?
@@c.c.9539 I'm sorry you had to go through that. It's bad enough to bear the burden of parenthood alone without having a child for the father of your children. You're right about the emotional damage this inflicts on daughters because I've seen it in my own daughter, but your mission now is to put that bitter experience behind you and look forward. My daughter is now a mother with two children, and they are my joy. It's the only good thing that came out of my abusive marriage. Good luck and God bless! xx
@@AFTERPUPPET Thank you. Yes, you're right, he did say that later in the video, but I wrote my comment after the initial comments. ..LOL I'm glad to say that my daughter is now a responsible adult with two children of her own, so I guess I must have done something good! :)
@@c.c.9539 whoa! straight to personal attacks and narcissist projection! i think i've got the picture, thanks.
What a great channel with a charming, educated host and interesting guests. You have risen the intellectual bar John! I agree 100%. It follows that in order for a child to have a healthy upbringing, it needs both a father *and* a mother. Regardless of what the minute but influencial identiterians try to impose to the rest of us normal people. These are the toxic agents trying to divide our (Western) society and we should protect our children from them.
PS I have several Muslim friends who do not understand the absurdity of the whole gender discussion.
So basically it's not just fathers but good fathers or you end up with Cain killing Abel anyway.
True, but everyone has a father. When you said "good", do you mean interactive with their kids or teaching them right from wrong?
@@JasonManners I meant good as in morally good and he must be interactive if he is to model virtue and educate his sons in virtue.
No parent left behind!
Man learns to break his word, and procrastinate with mum, and discipline
The father's role in the home and the family unit - and society in general - is SO important.
It's why Marxist 101 had to take out fathers first.
Without strong fathers, boys are rudderless. And most will become rudderless adults.
You can't have any ice cream if you don't finish your peas. How can you have any ice cream if you don't finish your peas?
Date of original interview should be indicated.
I just realized that this is another example about how men sacrifice for their families. Men want to do the same thing as mothers, they feel the same as mothers, the difference is they know they have to enforce those boundaries and so that's what they do. There's also the time that it takes to enforce some boundaries. Saying something like we're not leaving to go do something fun until you finish your peas and then actually enforcing it 8 time that could have been spent doing something else.
Dr. Farrell is awesome - and right.
John A. Is awesome. Let’s put him in charge and I will move to where ever that is. Barring that, I will stick with DJT 45
Wait, aren't we supposed to call any form of masculinity toxic?
Yes M W, but as Jordan Peterson rebukes, there is also toxic feminism. Milo Yiannopoulos goes as far as to call 4th wave feminism a cancer.
@@preppercoops741 Good point. xD
Nope
Use Quercetin instead of HCQ plus zinc and Vit C. All easily bought and almost as effective.
I don't see the importance of fatherhood. I always wondered what's the importance of fathers in a child's life. I can see why mothers are important. Women are socially and biologically programmed to be parents much more strongly than men are. Mothers are the ones that produce milk to feed to their babies. Also, mothers are the ones that are usually in charge of their babies, and they assume that role early on. Also, women have "maternal instinct", while men don't have anything like that. And also, children usually spend a lot more time with their mothers than they do with their fathers, and during that time, the mothers are usually taking care of the children.
Also, most animals in this world are only taken care by their mothers and they don't have their fathers around at all. So why are human fathers important? It seems that a child can grow up without a father, and still turn out ok.
Interesting, but please leave the state out of it.
Sorry, can't leave the state out of it. Public policies and economic incentives are powerful motivators in culture.
Why? It's mostly the State's fault that families have devolved so why not fix that part of it? Simple things like mandatory sentencing laws for stupid minor crimes, rather than dealing with the root of the problem, which is in turn exposing people to jail culture, then rather than fixing them it leads to high recidivism and the cycle continues.
This is no finger pointing but a description of a cause.
Don't worry, you're not missing anything. Father's are unnecessary. Even when they're there, they're not really there.
This is one of the most unintelligent comments on all of CZcams.
