05/20 How to Fix a Broken Family

Quote From: leogorky

I don't understand why the first couple is even on. They both have many personal issues that they need to work on individually before they come to a relationship. Who knows why these two got married. Dr Phil gives hope that maybe they can save their marriage. Well, they've never had a marriage; neither one knows what it means to love another person that way. I have absolutely NO sympathy for this woman...she knew EXACTLY what she was doing. The only one I feel sorry for is their poor child...he has a violent, brutish father, and an idiot for a mother. It's frightening that these 2 are responsible for making decisions for an innocent child when they have the emotions and coping skills of 2 thirteen year olds, and are unable to make responsible decisions for themselves.

I agree. They are both at fault. She was already spoiled rotten by her father. And not willing to support herself. So she married a successful older man.

You are a breath of fresh air. You are not of the all too common throw the man under the bus and absolve the woman of all responsibility mentality that seems to pervade these boards. They both have faults. Do not know why he married a woman he did not suffiently love. Did she love hhm that way? Doubt it. I think she wanted a sugar daddy.
