“While the mother is all love, it is up to the father to set prohibitions,” Freud, the father of psychoanalysis, tells us. Does this age-old sharing of roles remain relevant or are we changing the world? This is what we will see.
Alain Finkielkraut receives the psychologist, Caroline Goldman and the psychoanalyst, Kevin Hiridjeein a program around the figure of the father, between fatherhoods of yesterday and today, their differences, their transformations. How did the feminism of the 1970s and 80s transform the role of father? Have fathers become mothers like any other? Debate with our two guests.

“For several decades, fatherhood has undergone immense, but silent, transformations. Fathers are reinventing their role and consigning the traditional paternal figure to oblivion. This evolution produces resistance, tensions and questions. Am I a good father? To what extent father look like? Basically, what is a father today?” Kevin Hiridjee, What is a father? Fayard 2024.

With Guide for Today's Parents, Caroline Goldman addresses the fundamental themes that make up parenthood: the paths to happiness, family balance, daily management, the importance of words and educational limits, parental fragilities, childhood sorrows, adolescence… Co-edition Flammarion/-Inter 2024.
