Broken home / di padre in figlio
to remember that “everything” is not always possible. There are often obstacles that prevent fathers
to do the fathers and sons to have intense and continued relationships with their fathers.
Is it because of insufficient laws? Is it because of the judges interpreting them badly and always
applying them in a discriminating way against fathers? Is it because of the lawyers using children as
a strategy to defend their clients? Is it because of parents employing children to avenge their fault?
Because of mothers covering such a dominant role in childcare? Because of fathers running away
from their responsabilities? I say it's because of all that and everybody's fault. It's because of the
culture of parenting and the respect related to their growth that it’s hard to take hold in Italy.
FROM FATHER TO SON
A work, the one fulfilled by Graziano Panfili, that may contribute to inspire men to be more
concerned in the relationship and keeping of their children, paying serious attention to the public
awareness about this social problem: the bond between father and son after the separation of
married couples and the aftermath in everyday life relationship management.
«From a personal standpoint – comments Panfili – to realize these shots, a process of knowledge
has begun inside of me related to who I was and who I’ve become today: the father I have become
and my emotional experiences. Working on the relationship with my son showed me things I hadn’t
seen outside of a picture nor I hadn't felt. This exciting process grew in time and developed through
the growth of my son and our relationship. The relationship itself may become vehicle for a change:
when a matter reaches the awareness, then, you can't act as if nothing has happened».
