To say that someone has daddy issues is a somewhat rude

and humiliating way of alluding to a very understandable longing – for a father who is strong and wise,

who is judicious, kind, perhaps at points tough, but always fair and ultimately always on our side.

It would be so understandable if we were to feel we wanted someone like this in our lives, – especially at moments of confusion and chaos.

The longing for a strong father has been a recurring theme throughout history.

Most religions have conceived of their central divinities as male parents.

In ancient Greece, Zeus was described as the father of men and gods.

In Christianity, God was the heavenly father.

In Germanic mythology, Odin was the all -father, the father of all other gods.

The longing has been no less present in secular culture.

In the US, the individuals who led the War of Independence and drew up the constitution came to be known as the Founding Fathers.

Garibaldi, the dignified and authoritative man who fought for the unification of Italy in the 19th century,

earned himself the title of the Father of the Fatherland.

In early childhood, we are all immensely weak and in need of protection.

We can't understand the world.

We're so fragile we could be killed by a moderately sized dog.

So much feels mysterious and outside of our control.

A hunger for a daddy is, in the circumstances, wholly natural.

A grown man inevitably and rightly seems immensely impressive to a small child.

They appear to know everything – the capital of New Zealand, how to drive a car, how to say a few words in a foreign language,

how to peel an avocado.

They go to bed mysteriously late.

They're up before you.

In the swimming pool, you can put your arms around their neck and rest on their back.

They once kicked a football so high you nearly couldn't see it.

It's beyond astonishing when one is four.

The paradox of daddy issues is that those who have them are, almost always, people who didn't have very good fathers when they were small.

Perhaps one's father was strong but ultimately cruel, bullying or disinterested.

Perhaps he was more concerned with another sibling or with his work.

Perhaps he wasn't around much, left the house after a divorce or died young.

The adult longing for a father is not the result of having had a good father in childhood.

It's a consequence of abandonment.

The longing can incline us to some tricky patterns of behaviour.

However mature and sceptical we may be in most areas, in relation to the idea of male protection,

we remain a little like the young child we once were and haven't been allowed to mature away from.

We secretly yearn for a man to step in and fulfil an unquenched fantasy role.

They'll take charge, they'll make the big decisions, they'll be tough and certain to make our problems go away.

They'll make sure the money side of things is sorted, they'll get angry and aggressive with anyone who hurts us,

they'll be proud of us and love us as we are.

We'll be looking out for daddies in friendships, at work and, not least, in politics.

The danger is that these daddies may in the end hugely damage our trust,

for it isn't in anyone's power to assuage the sort of longings we bring to bear on them.

They may know very well what we want and naively or cynically promise to provide it for us,

but gradually, too late, we stand to realise that they had a thousand flaws, as we all do.

We may realise that they are bullying rather than noble, that our enemies haven't gone away, that they couldn't help us,

that there isn't enough money in the world to do what they promised and that, in fact, they didn't really love us at all.

The fantasy daddy figure of adulthood isn't, in fact, a good father for one big reason.

Truly good humans know they aren't that powerful

and are happy to admit to the fact cleanly and honestly just as soon as we're ready to take the news,

which is normally when we're around 12 years old and conscious of new powers and capacities.

A good father doesn't, beyond that age, pretend to be all -powerful.

They confess they can't solve all our problems and can't magically save us from a myriad of dangers, no matter how much they wish they could.

The good daddy disappoints us just as soon as we're strong enough to bear reality.

Out of love, they deflate the idea that there could ever be a perfect ideal daddy.

They try as best they can to help us grow up.

If we encounter someone who has daddy issues, the temptation is to get frustrated, to tell them to mature,

to mock them and in particular to poke fun at the particular daddy figure they might have identified.

This isn't either a very wise or ultimately a very kind strategy.

It simply tends to trench their devotion because whenever we're attacked,

we of course feel ever more intensely than ever the need for the protection of an idealized father.

What we really need to help us out of our daddy

issues is something more like the actions of a genuinely good father.

Someone who acknowledges our suffering and our fears, who deeply wants what's best for us and isn't reluctant to say so,

but who at the same time, out of love, wants to help us to come to terms with a messy and essentially disappointing world.

A man who, out of love, would encourage us to be independent and specifically not to fantasise that anyone,

however outwardly imposing, can ever do the impossible.

Good daddies allow us to bear the truth that there are, in the end, no daddies.

this.

什麼是跟讀法？

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
