Father Bad, Mother GOOD! CALL IN SHOW

March 18, 2026

A listener calls in, wrestling with the estrangement he chose from his abusive father. Stefan Molyneux listens as the man describes his decision to “defoo” and cut contact. Stefan stresses that firm boundaries are essential when someone has proven destructive, and he warns against reopening the door to a parent who shows no genuine remorse or change. He guides the caller toward focusing on his own healing and building real autonomy instead of hoping for reconciliation that may never come.
