The relationship between father and son is full of differences. With age, there comes a stage in this relationship where both of them are not able to sit face to face and decide together on any issue. They always need a third person to talk to. But why does it happen that the son whose small wishes are a priority for his father in childhood, does the relationship between the two become tense as he grows up?

You can understand the answer to this from an interview with Isha Foundation founder and spiritual guru Sadhguru, where film producer Karan Johar asked him the question of why there is a situation of tension and a kind of distance in the father-son relationship.

Sadhguru gave this answer

While answering Karan Johar's question, Sadhguru said that the reason for the tension and distance in the father-son relationship is because he is a man. In simple language, you can also call it a fight for ownership.

Distance increases from this age

Throwing light on the relationship between father and son, Sadhguru says that both of them have a good relationship till the age of 9-10 years. For a son, his father is like God and a superhero. But as soon as the child turns 15-16 years old, the image of the father completely changes in his mind. At this age, people want to feel superior, but the son is not able to do this while living with the father, due to which distance comes between the two.

This is why father and son don't get along

Sadhguru explains that the reason for not getting along between father and son is not their relationship but the battle of ego that goes on between the two men. Both of these people are trying to divide one place and one woman, who is a wife and a mother.
