The fact that he forgives his son - a cannibal, murderer, the monster of Milwaukee… But not himself… That is just so sad. I can’t imagine what it’s like for him. The guilt, the grief. It must be absolutely awful - especially now with the documentary that came out, reliving everything. Also props for the stepmom. She didn’t even birth Jeffrey, yet she speaks of him as if he is her blood. Imagine your stepson doing these disgusting things and you still consider him your son.

It is heartbreaking. raising, loving and caring for your child. imagine thinking of the moments he spent with him at a young age. it’s so sad to think about it. must be so hard when so many people also blame the parent for forgiving the son. but at the end of the day that was his child that he loved and cared for

Bless Lionel Dahmer. He loved his son unconditionally and tried to help. He didn't know the extent of his son's issues and learned the details of his crimes with the rest of the world during the trial. He wrote a great book trying to analyze Jeffrey's behavior and where things could've gone wrong. Even in this video he is still trying to process what happened and make sense of it all.

Do your research before you make an ignorant comment. I’ve seen true crime stories of people that grow up extremely loved, cared for, and taken care of in every aspect and need. That still end up being murderers. Finding the human in a monster like Jeffery dahmer doesn’t make you forget or ignore the horrific crimes he committed.

I've read all the books, including Lionel Dahmer's and I still believe that a lot of Jeffreys problem at puberty grew out of a mental illness inherited from his mentally ill mother, coupled with the pills she took during her pregnancy. I remember having really dark thoughts when I was about the same age as Jeff did - around 12 -13. I don't remember wanting to kill anyone or thing outside of myself but I did feel strange and suicidal. Now, looking back I realise it was depression probably brought on by hormones etc. So, to me, the part of Jeff's puberty that was abnormal was where his thoughts took him. His took him outside of himself, and I think that's a chemical aberration that was born out of both nature (moms pills) and nurture. (Her leaving him and taking his brother.) His mom was so odd. I think it affected him a great deal. I believe a thing like that at a time like that, was like waving a red cape at an enraged bull. Huge red flag.

Can anyone else see that the father is only describing what is seen in the family reel? It's like he's literally narrating from a scrip made for the reel, there's actually no personal account of any particular detail of his entire childhood, all he's saying are the typical thing that people play to pretend to. Nothing happens in a vacuum, and the father is not owning anything, "Jeff" now was an entire Angel and only was "off" when OTHER people seem him doing so, never in from of their parents. come on. He never laid a hand on him and he regrets it? Really, cause everyone got spanked at least once back in the day. He's lying and hiding the truth like a good Narcissist parent do.

If you compare the father’s interviews vrs the mother, he takes accountability of his parenting compared to the mother. It was claimed the mother had seizures during her pregnacy and was given extreme medicine from the dr during a home visit. Yes back when dr’s came to your house. Everything was different back then but the mommy takes this as “blame’’ and denies it ever happened. Its not about blame, its seeking answers, warning signs missed and what can help others not to do with their own child.

The thing is his father would never have thought he would commit such heinous crimes. He found out about a few odd things. But i doubt he ever thought oh my sons probably going to become the worst serial killer in America. To me he seemed to be a very loving father in the family home videos. No one could ever truly know what goes on in someone's mind. Not even your own children's.

He wants the victims to experience the benefits of forgiveness. Its a huge step to forgive and forgiveness has absolutely nothing to do with the perpetrator. It doesn't mean that anything done was ok. Forgiveness is all about the victim trying to move on.

They got paid a hefty amount for this. That said if they wanted to make this 100% transparent and candid, they should've hired their own film crew as well and play both sides of the footage. Meaning theirs and "Dr. Phils". That way ppl could actually see it all and make their own opinions.

They must have the father on medication for this interview to remain calm . He is old and they don’t want him to have anything happen to him . This would be too emotional for him . When the trial went on he was younger and now talking about this and remembering everything and talking about it he is older .
