That really resonates with me. I remember starting in grade seven, my parents telling me what career I had to choose. So I did just what they said when I went to university and became a teacher. Yep, same with me. They never asked me what I wanted to do either. Looking back, I wish my dad had said just once, All I want is for you to be happy, son.
Father's Day can be a bittersweet occasion for many, and in this episode of 'A2D - From Addict to Disciple', David Hain takes us on a heartfelt journey through the lives of four individuals grappling with their unique fatherhood experiences. First, you'll meet a young man who never got the chance to know his father, as he passed away before they could meet. Then, there's another young man whose father is now reaching out to connect after years of absence.
The episode also features an elderly man who has spent his life feeling inadequate under the shadow of his father's expectations. Finally, you'll hear from a mother determined to keep her children away from her own dad. Through these raw and candid conversations, David offers a compassionate look into the emotional scars and complex feelings tied to father-child relationships. These stories are not just about pain but also about the resilience and healing that can follow.
They serve as a powerful reminder that it's never too late to seek support and start your own journey towards emotional liberation. Whether you're dealing with similar issues or simply want to understand more about the impact of fatherhood, this episode provides valuable insights and encouragement for anyone on the path to healing.
