Re: What is Disapproval? - How to Allow

Speaking of being critical - my dad is very critical with others. He knows a lot about nutrition, alternative therapies etc, but he gets angry at people, especially his brothers and sisters, if they don't want to follow his advise and keeps butting in which then leads to disharmony in their relationship. I have told him many times, that I understand that he wants the best for them, and that it is great to offer advise, but if they aren't ready for it or plain don't want to listen, he needs to let them be and love them the way they are and continue to be a good role model. They may then come around. But no, he continues to pressure them every chance he gets. He is the same with my mom and us children.

So, he is obviously citizing himself then! I never thought of that before.
