Donald Trump seems to be out of the loop regarding his son Barron's life, including basic details like his age and future education plans. As Trump celebrates his 74th birthday on June 14, questions arise about his ability to connect with Barron, who is significantly younger.

Dr Sanam Hafeez, a neuropsychologist from New York, suggests that Trump's age could be causing a rift between them if they were ever close at all. In an exclusive chat with Nicki Swift, Dr Hafeez, who is also the director of Comprehend the Mind, delved into the potential problems caused by the large age difference between Trump and his son.
Communication issues, difficulty in bonding over shared activities, and contrasting views on various subjects, including politics, are just some of the challenges they might encounter.
Moreover, the pressure Barron may feel to carry on the Trump family legacy could be adding to the strain. "Expectations within the family can also create tension, with the father expecting the son to uphold family traditions or values, and the son feeling pressure to meet these expectations," Dr Hafeez explained.
Celebrity psychologist Dr Hafeez has weighed in on the potential emotional strain Barron could face as his father, former President Trump, advances in age. "Emotional distance may emerge if either struggles to express vulnerability or if unresolved conflicts strain their relationship," Rafeez pointed out, also mentioning the difficulty Barron might have in coping with the eventual loss of his father.
Dr Hafeez further elaborated to Nicki Swift about the challenges Barron may encounter: "It could potentially be challenging for Barron Trump to see his father nearing his eighties, as this phase of life often brings various emotional and practical considerations. Witnessing a parent age can evoke feelings of concern, especially if there are health issues or changes in physical capabilities," she said. "Barron might experience stress or worry about his father's well-being and may need to adjust to a role where he may provide more support or caregiving."
As Donald steps into his twilight years, the opportunities for father-son bonding may dwindle. Creating new memories could become increasingly difficult due to the expected decline in Donald's physical capabilities.
"There could be differences in energy levels and activities that Barron and his father can engage in together," Rafeez pointed out. "Donald Trump, as he grows older, might face different preferences and limitations regarding lifestyle and social interactions, which could influence their relationship dynamics and shared experiences."
