0:00.0 | So Bob, I thought I would lob some balls over the plate for you in an easy fashion for you to |
0:07.0 | hit out of the park in the form of questions from the listeners that are easy for you to answer |
0:12.5 | and are interesting for you to answer. What do you say, Bob? Wow, I have an easy job. |
0:17.4 | Anonymous patron says, oh no wait, I would hear that one. Aperture patron Hannah from London says, |
0:25.1 | is a common to be more angry and resentful at a non-abuse apparent than the perpetrating parent. |
0:31.1 | I experienced extreme violence in my childhood. My father was violent. My mother would never defend |
0:36.0 | me from the violence. Despite my dad being the perpetrator, I find that most of my residual |
0:41.2 | anger and hurt is aimed towards my mom and not my dad. Is this common? I wonder if this is |
0:46.3 | ingrained patriarchy where I blame my woman for not protecting me and let the man off the hook. |
0:53.3 | Bob, what do you think? You know, your situation is similar to mine growing up, but I never really |

1:34.8 | anecdotally, it's very common. And I would find it in all age groups, kids included, where |
1:42.9 | you'd have a single mom who was doing her best and divorced an abusive husband and the |
1:51.2 | father of her kids. And the kids would look at Disneyland dad with admiration and longing. |
2:01.0 | But the kids have a lot of trauma and it has to go somewhere. And so it would go towards the mom. |
2:06.5 | And the mom's like, how come I'm getting all the anger and the disobedience and the |
2:13.2 | disdain from these kids when I'm the better parent by far. And how come my ex-husband is getting |
