Control Freak

A friend asked me whether a high energy J can't be a control freak. I asked her to find the difference between Naveen Babu - the character played by Saif Ali Khan's father in the movie Parineeta and Anniyan (the negative role played by Vikram in the movie Anniyan). Anniyan was a high energy J (as in MBTI) who was very fussy about discipline and about right and wrong. Naveen Babu, on the other hand, was not about rules. He wanted his wife and his son to do exactly what he said. And he, unlike Anniyan, didn't have a constant set of rules.
Quote from the wiki that describes Saif's father: "Sabyasachi Chakrabarty as Naveen Roy. Cold at heart, a shrewd and a conniving businessman who even places human values and relationships below his greed for money. Surinder Kaur as Rajeshwari. The mother of Shekhar [Saif] who scornfully watches how badly her husband treats the neighbours and gets ill."

Are Naveen and Anniyan similar? Are they both control freaks? Can a J be a control freak? I say No to all questions.

Is every P a control  freak? If the P has low energy then No. Is every high energy P a control freak? No, all P's are not control freaks. I would probably guess that an Enneagram 8 has a high potential to be a control freak. And a control freak is very likely to be a P.
