He has a lot of respect for me." Brad and Kelvin find that men compare themsetlves to their fathers as workers, husbands, parents, as athietes and as persons with intelligence. They explain to men that it is in these areas that we as men are gifted or wounded. There was good news for Ted. He found that he is not held hostage by his father‘s shortcomings. Ted discovered there was much in his father that contributed to a good sense of masculinity. He learned that he could be a different husband, worker, and parent, and that he could use his intelligence to build a more satistying relationship with his wife and children. Groups such as this group for men are made possible by funds from United Way. For more information about groups for men, women and children at Interfaith call 743â€"6781. them. Together they developed a contract to prevent a similar outbreak of violence. Ted would go into a group for men to try to understand and manage his anger After Ted had completed the group, a counsellor would meet with him and his wife to do further couple work Why do men express themselves in physical and emotional abuse of women, including gross violence and homicide? One therapist/researcher at Interfaith says it is because some men "go ballistic in search for affirmation of manhood. They are men who are hurting in their relationships at home and at work. They are unaware that their pain has something to do with their fathers®. Brad Morrison and Kelvin Mutter are Interfaith therapists who help men see their relationship with their fathers in a new light. Here is one activity which the men use. Three chairs are places side by side. The middle chair represents Ted‘s father. The chairs on each side represents two poles of a continuum. Ted is asked to imagine his father sitting in the middle chair. His father represents "a real man", the standard of masculinity in Ted‘s life. The middle chair is a "ten" on the imaginary continuum. The chair to the left represents "less of a man" compared to father or "not man enough". The chair on the right represents "more of a man" compared to father. Ted is then asked to determine where on this continuum he would place himself. When Ted is ready, he is asked to sit in the chair that best represents his own sense of masculinity. The therapist‘s task is to invite Ted to talk about why he has placed himself in a specific chair. One man sitting in the "more" chair said, "I am not an alcoholic like my father. | don‘t hit my children like he did". Or "I‘m more in touch with my feelings. I‘m not afraid to talk to my wife about my feelings." Another man sitting in the "less" chair said, "I can‘t fix things like my dad could", or "I don‘t own my own home and my income is less compared to where he was at my NCY ht * trana o ED" .‘Ig:’fi“ «> d C fi. c%.
