A Father's Story by Lionel Dahmer

4.0

This was an interesting look at Jeffrey Dahmer's life through the eyes of his father. It's hard to relate to Lionel as I have no idea what it would be like to go through what he did. He admits there were signs that he overlooked or outright ignored or made excuses for throughout Jeffrey's life. He does take blame for how Jeffrey turned out. I can't imagine it's easy being the parent of a killer. I'm not at all saying he's not partly responsible, but again, I have no idea what it would be like to be put in his situation.
