    I am 24 years old with serious accountability and anger issues. I grew up in a house hold where my dad would scream at the drop of a pin. My mom was super emotional and unstable. I needed my parents both so desperately but they had their own problems with each other. I never see them tell each other they love each other, no hugs and kisses. I haven’t seen that since I was a child. It really starts in the household. I feel like a sack of shit at 24 with emotional and behavioral problems but no more. Jordan is teaching me to look through a different lense, to think for myself. If you’re on the same journey as me, be kind to yourself and definitely don’t give up on yourself. YOU deserve peace. Your inner child deserves it too.

    I have a friend who was conditioned by his parents to shut up and just accept what they said. He describes arguing with his parents a couple times when he was young (no older than 10, iirc) because they had said something that didn't make sense to him. Either it was blatantly unfair from his perspective or it was simply, factually incorrect. He says he would win the argument logically, and his parents punished him for it. He still struggles with any form of confrontation to this day.

    JP touches on a great parenting philosophy called Taking Children Seriously.
    The title explains it. Children are People. Take their wishes, concerns, fears, and ideas seriously, as you would anyone else.
    Not being taking seriously chronically probably contributes to much of children’s mental suffering (although we look for blame elsewhere, like social media).

      Let's not play down how toxic social media can be, I do agree with you overall but even this ironically, the distance of typing a response compared to conversation vastly changes the interaction and the more people are on social media the less tolerant they are to opinions they don't share and they won't discuss them as if they were in person, they will resort to insults and abuse so quickly it blows my mind. For this reason I never use social media, I think it's the most anti-social and fake form of communication available, narcissists and pathological liars communicate more honestly in person than average people do on social media, that's how toxic I believe it to be.

    When I was working with clients, I always did exactly what he was saying,I would reflect to the client what I heard and ask “Did I understand right?” Clients always cried, and shared they felt this was the first time they actually felt somebody cared enough to listen and try to understand their experience. This came from clients who had been in therapy for years with other therapists, and I had barely graduated my masters program. The skill he talks about is very true and I can attest very important to practice as a clinician and does wonders in your actual relationships.

    My nephew used to believe in ghosts, he was very adamant about their existence and would show me videos on RUclips. He was 8 years old. I didn't want to destroy his fun. One day he asked me if I believed in them. I told him I didn't and I explained why and that all I'd need is sufficient evidence for phenomenon that had no other explanation. From that day onwards he has approached absolutely everything with that mindset. It's the thing I'm most proud of in my life. One small conversation with a child opened their mind and changed their way of thinking, for the better.
    He questions absolutely everything now. Skeptical, quizzical but never cynical.

    I noticed that more often than not people described as "pleasant to talk to" are those that actually listen to the interlocutor, instead of those with a wit tongue, although, truth be told, those quite often come as a pack.
    There's a world of difference between a person waiting for you to finish talking and a person quietly listening to what you're saying and processing it.
    After a long monologue there's a pause where the other side is waiting for your final reaction. If you answer with "So, what you mean is that..." you can literally see people's faces light up. They're actually happy at that moment, they're feeling like they actually exist.
    It's so rewarding to just, well... Attend to people. You can even tame toxic people, say, at work, with this. It's so mysterious.

Do as they say, don't question. Growing up, now we don't really like to talk to them. Even when we're adult now, it's not much different. My mom doesn't like it when we don't say yes to everything she says. She doesn't like it when I challenge her statement. Of course now that I'm an adult i can make decision for myself, but the communication is still not good. And I turn out to be a person who's not articulate, who bores people when i talk. And I'm working on it

      You can do it.
      I suppose the challenge is to keep trying, keep talking to people, keep listening to them, don't give up...
      But then there's also people who don't necessarily want to cooperate, and rather push to get their way only, disregarding others.
      Like, let's say for example your parents. That's a rough start, so-to-speak, but then there's also the chance that you'll meet more people who are (non-) communicating in that same way. Potentially, all of these people (including your parents) can change for the better, but it can still be problematic, trying to get along with them before they've shaken off their top-down ('only what I say goes') communication style.
      (I suppose what I mean to say is that it can feel discouraging, if by some circumstance you keep running into people like this more often than the average guy. If that's the case, don't let it bring you down. There's so much positivity ahead! People can be truly awesome.)
      Anyway, best of luck meeting more people who are willing to engage in fair conversations with you, instead of being proverbial assholes towards you and others.
      ...and come to think about it, you've found/heard Jordan's tips already, so what could go wrong? 🙂

    My father is really good at this. Even when I was a little kid like on my visitation with him at 5 or 6 years old he would ask for my input on things. Which movie did I want to see at the theater. This afternoon we can play go carts or put put golf, which one did I want? Or pick out the kind of dessert that I wanted at the store for after dinner. I got to pick out my own comics to pick up on the weekly and monthly at the comics store but I had to save up my allowance to buy them. Dad also engaged my imagination through the kinds of comics and TV shows and movies he would show me, and talking about them with me, and giving me visualization techniques about the movies to help me conquer my fears. He would also find constructive punishments for the rules he set. That was a big player also! because finding out that there were consequences to my decisions (both good and bad, fun or not enjoyable) gave me a sense of agency over my life and thoughts even at a young age. Now I try to be just as thoughtful and open with him and other people. I hope I can be that good of a Dad when I have my own kids. ❤

    Read and teach your kids to read. From the moment you bring a child home you can read to them. Has a profound effect on the development of their neural net, especially in the first 3 years. Part two of that is having *actual* conversations with them. That means, talking to them like they're adults who have something meaningful to say and that comes back to JP's point about listening. I've had lots of friends say to me, "you don't talk to your son like he's a child"... and no, I don't and never have. I ask what he thinks about things, why he thinks what he does and I'm careful not to push what I think on him.. rather, letting him discover for himself what he thinks. Something of an epistemological process for children, if you will.
    The part where a lot of people get themselves into trouble with kids is pushing their own views onto them. Kid comes up to you with some crazy idea.. you can respond with, "that's BS they've been teaching you in school" or use it as an opportunity to help them explore why they know what they think they know. Back to first principles always; why do we know something except that we've always been told it's true? How do you explain that the earth is not flat in a way that a 5 year old can understand it? If you don't think children will help you develop your ability to convey what you think you know.. think again. A 'thinker' most certainly will. :)

    Thank you for sharing this informative video! As a life coach, I believe that raising children to be independent, critical thinkers can have a profound impact on their future success and happiness. I would also suggest modeling free thinking and independent decision making to children and encouraging them to take risks and try new things. By empowering children to think for themselves and make their own choices, we can help them develop a strong sense of self and prepare them for a fulfilling and successful future. Keep up the great work, and thank you for sharing these valuable insights!

    I remember when I first started watching Jordan Peterson and he said the line “If you’re bored of people you just aren’t listening well enough” I didn’t quite understand how that worked. Well fast forward a couple of years and holy shit I wanna run away from everyone because I’m able to listen to what happened to them. It’s just completely overwhelming to be bombarded constantly by the different facets of an individual. But people are everywhere and theres so many of them and all of them cry out like babes for the teat, except they can’t hear themselves anymore and they just scream louder without even realising it.
    All. The. Damn. Time.
    Thanks to Dr Peterson I became the person I wish I had when I was younger and I can listen to myself and others now, but who can and has the skill to listen to me now?

    Your content is an invaluable resource for parents on the journey of raising children. As someone deeply committed to nurturing young minds, I'm truly inspired by your insights. Raising children is an incredible responsibility, and it's our duty to help them grow into compassionate, honest, and patient individuals.
    In the words of Fred Rogers, 'The greatest gift you ever give is your honest self.' Our children learn by example, and it's our actions that mold their character. 'Patience is not the ability to wait, but how you act while you're waiting,' says Joyce Meyer. Instilling this virtue in our children is a gift that keeps on giving.
    Teaching honesty is equally vital. 'Honesty is a very expensive gift; don't expect it from cheap people,' warns Warren Buffett. Our role as parents is to show our children the worth of integrity.
    Keep sharing your invaluable wisdom, as it resonates with all of us striving to raise responsible, respectful, and kind-hearted kids.

To this day, adults in a group conversation talk over me and don’t listen to me, as if I didn’t say anything. I agree if they did listen, it would be life-changing. I haven’t “talked” in so long i have trouble finding words when I have the opportunity.

      Sorry for your experience. Just a suggestion - speak to people in an extremely mundane situation by asking their advice eg in line at supermarket (as long as they're not going through the checkout obvs!) 'Could I ask do you know whether this dish soap is Ok or do you recommend another? Do you think the garlic paste I chose is better than fresh garlic at this time of year'? If nervous, try retired folk first as they generally have more time and want social interaction - v sad how lonely some older folk are. Also try a church/synagogue/mosque and/or volunteering at a local place - a dog shelter, homeless shelter, older folk meals etc. Engaging with people of all backgrounds esp those you don't want to impress gives a lot of practice in listening and learning when/how others speak and make themselves heard.🙏 .

I saw her again, with a dog and she said 'I was invisible but now people talk to me... and the horrible pills have been thrown away'. DO NOT get a pet if you can't look after it but it's great to help out neighbours who need a dog walked (Or borrow my doggy or similar).

    One way to encourage children to think is to answer their questions sometimes by a few good questions they could ask in order to find answers to their questions. When it is better to give my answers to their questions, I try to give them reasons why I reach to my conclusion. In other words, being a good model of what it means to live as a thinker.

    Mr. Peterson you straddle the line between the hunt of human morality and God centered direction. The problem with free thinking is that we are flawed; bias and left to our own devices we fall into self righteousness, especially as young children. Choose God above self always and you'll never go wrong. The Lord is the one to follow. A parental figure acts as a mediator to the child echoing the sentiments of what Jesus has taught us. It's all so simple. Follow God, exalt Him. As archaic and conservative as it sounds, the practice of free thinking can be a dangerous path because it follows the theme of today, the glorification of self and not of God. May we all never become so self satisfied that we forget who is at the head. Our Lord and savior.

    You can teach people what do, and you can teach people how to think. If anyone tries to teach you how to do, or teach you what to think, you know they are wrong. There are certainly best ways to do something, but it will always have constraints as to why it's best under those circumstances. Sometimes it will not be the best way to do it, and to make it mandatory goes against progress. Same for telling someone what to think. Certainly there are times when what to think is important as in cases of deception or bias. But you don't solve this by mandating a thought. You solve this by teaching how to deal with it and how to find the truth in their own.
