THE HOLE IN THE HEART LEFT BY NEGLECT!
3 March 2024 Sunday Morning Live!
"Hi, Stef. Hope you and your family are doing great. I have a question influenced from chapter 18 of Peaceful Parenting. When it comes to neglect, can I put my parents in that category? If they would leave for weeks at a time on regular work-related trips. I was very young, seven or eight, and left with a live-in babysitter during these times. Sometimes it would be three weeks, sometimes a few days. This feels like neglect, but I struggle to see it."

In Which I Get Angry at the Caller!
Hi Stef,
I had a dream last night that was very strange and left me a bit shaken up. As a donor on Locals, I have seen a lot of your dream analyses and find them very insightful. I was hoping we could have one for this dream.
Just for some context, my parents have been divorced since I was around 9 or 10.
The dream starts at my dad’s house (where I spent most of my childhood). We are opening up Christmas gifts. My dad, my brother (two years younger than me), and I are in the living room and my mom is in another room (not sure which one). I’m opening up a gift from my aunt on my mom’s side (who was not present). It’s a giant coffee table book of blueprint drawings.
The drawings are of various pieces of tools and machinery from the 1930s, I remember seeing blueprints of old cars from that period as well as hunting rifles and shotguns. The book itself was about 20-30 years old.
As I’m looking through it my dad says angrily, “be careful with that! It’s old and fragile”. I told him to “stop nagging at me”. This set him off in a huge tirade. I don’t remember what he said, but I remember he was yelling and screaming. I felt like I was going to die. He eventually went into the other room where my mom was and started complaining to her. It was muffled, so I couldn’t make out what he was saying. While he was in there I started thinking about emailing Stefan and setting up a call-in. My dad walked out afterwards and stormed outside.
My mom walked out of the room she was in and into the living room. I started confronting her about being distant with my brother and I. As I did this, my brother was backing me up. My mom admitted that she has been distant, but insists that she can change. I asked why she didn’t change when my brother and I were kids. She said she made a “stupid mistake by being distant”.
Either while confronting her or afterwards, I started pacing around the room, still thinking about setting up a call-in with Stefan. I checked today’s date on my phone and saw that it was December 31st. I said, “wow I didn’t know it was New Year’s Eve”. I checked again and saw the date was actually January 13th. I said, “oh, I must have dyslexia”. I vaguely recall my mom going along with both dates and not correcting me when I said it was New Year’s Eve. (This last part is especially confusing). I woke up shortly after...

Fraudulent Buddhists? Locals Questions Answered
"I’m visiting Thailand in April. As I am doing my research about the country and Buddhism, I have come across a practice that seems to me to be unjust and morally questionable.
"The Monks who had all the time in the world figured out that they could charge the tourist visitors significantly higher prices for visiting the temples, compared to the local visitors.
"I know I will have an opportunity to speak with Big Boss Monk and I am going to confront him about this issue.
"Can you help me please bring some clarity to this concern? What would be the best respectful approach and arguments against in my view theft? How would a free society deal with price discrimination? Am I even in the right position or they have all the means to charge what they want?"
"Hi Stefan, in one of your shows you mentioned that being a commodity to your family was a great pleasure.
"Sometimes, not always though, I feel the opposite as being the provider can be quite draining, constantly putting in and the feeling of getting less out personally (selfishly) from my perspective. I know this is not true as my wife and children give me much joy, work the home and local business. They do surprise me with the love and appreciation they give me. Also when looking at what we've achieved and built together and the involvement of the kids through home schooling in the whole process is a great privilege.
"Why do you think this feeling and thought creeps up from time to time in the male provider mind? This feeling that you give and give for others to flourish, saving for the future, protecting and preparing. Yet I feel neglected in the process?
"Is it just a selfishness that comes through or is there legitimacy in the feeling that a male should address or discuss with his family?
"Would love some philosophical insight into this thought and feeling of the male perspective.
"Thanks and much appreciated,
"PS. My wife feels the same way some days; educating, feeding, cleaning, managing, driving up and down and assisting the community.
"Just the roles we have I suppose."

Stop Being So 'Kind'!
25 February 2024 Sunday Morning Live
"Why do you think covetting one of the Ten Commandments? Why is it high enough of a priority to list among murder, theft or adultery?"
"Don't need a long answer but I'm curious. On episode 5417 why did you say that leading a moral life is ups and downs? I would think it’s an exponential curve- difficult for a while and then massive benefits."
"Stef, is it also a good argument to make that there's no point in debating people who would try to dismiss property rights by using instances like the bread example because at that point we are no longer in the realm of rational discourse. Would a society that follows UPB really have this problem? Is this bread problem really what is getting in the way of someone accepting that rape, assault, murder and theft are wrong? If so, no logic can help them."
"To what degree do you personally care about status?"

Sexless Marriage!
"I've been married for about 17 years. We've never really had a good way of resolving conflict in the marriage.
"I remember a specific conflict right after we were married, shortly after we started living together. We were both raised conservative Christians and didn't have sex before marriage, didn't live together.
"I don't remember the details, but I do remember distinctly thinking to myself: 'There's no way out. I tried to make my case, but it was as if what I said didn't actually matter.'"

World Full of Idiots?
"The Secular model does not have God in it, so it also does not have soul, nor conscience and freewill either, since those are embedded in soul. However, in reality conscience and freewill clearly exist. Therefore, the secular model is clearly false, fake and gay. Apart from that, one reason Christianity is superior to philosophy is that idiots can't understand philosophy, and the world is mostly idiots."

My Girlfriend Doubts Philosophy! Freedomain Call In
"My question is about my relationship with my girlfriend. I am in this place in my life where I've never been. I have a lovely girlfriend. I think I very much appreciate her and feel like she's a very, very valuable person in my life. However, I'm not sure that she is the one for me, like the one that we should live 80 years together, bring kids together. I want many kids. She wants kids, but not as many, because I'm not sure that she shares the values that I so much value."
