Parenting, Therapy, and Society's Role in Addiction: Bob Forrest's Unfiltered Take

Parents don't want to hear this because kids want them to do something else. Fuck that if you don't love them, don't love them, tell them to get the fuck out that I'm just so sick of the charade that goes on as parenting in this country.
Ever wondered how societal norms shape our views on parenting and addiction? In this episode of 'Don't Die Podcast', Bob Forrest and Chuk Davis pull no punches. They dive deep into the often misguided approaches to therapy and parenting that they believe contribute to the addiction crisis in America. Bob shares his candid thoughts on how some parents rush their children into therapy at the first sign of trouble, inadvertently fostering a victim mentality.
He also opens up about his own experiences with his son's addiction, emphasizing the importance of self-love and personal responsibility. The conversation doesn't stop there. Bob and Chuk tackle the co-dependent nature of many American parents, discussing how this dynamic can exacerbate drug addiction issues. They also shine a light on the recovery industry, exposing the misleading narratives pushed by politicians and big pharma. This episode is a raw, honest look at the complexities of addiction and recovery.
It's not just about pointing fingers but understanding the deeper societal issues at play. If you're looking for an unvarnished discussion on these critical topics, this episode is a must-listen.
