Father

This is what Bert Hellinger says about the Father:
-Adult. Independence.
With the Father only we find our way to become an independent responsible adult. When we are born, we completely associate ourselves with the Mother, we feel like we are the same and we actually are the same. This is OK till certain age (Hellinger says till the age of 6).

But this way we do not open ourselves fully, we do not develop our individuality. And we remain children. Hellinger says this is good to have more communication with the Father starting from the age of 6. Especially for boys this is very important to be more with the Father from the age of 6.
-Addictions: Workaholism, Alcoholism, Smoking, Drug Addictions etc.
According to many Family Constellation sessions these types of addictions are very often caused by not having any relation with the Father. Or not having any movement towards the Father. And if you notice, these addictions are most common among the man. Father is _very_ important for a man. (Form Bert Hellinger’s books).
-Business.
