Quote From: blsnoverPlease don't do any more shows on this kid. He is spoiled and has been given so many many breaks. Dr Phil set him up with treatment, a spot on a television show, yadda yadda yadda. I am very tired of seeing him and his enabling family. The first time it was OK. Then the 2nd time, it was trite, one more time and I just won't watch that episode. Please give other people in trouble a chance to use Dr Phil's help and resources since Brandon seems to keep failing. The time spent on him, could be put to use on many others that will try and succeed.
I have enjoyed just about every other Dr Phil show and realize you won't please all of the people all of the time. My husband and I watch the show all the time and really thank God that we are not in some of the situations that are shown to us. The shows hit a myriad of topics which is very nice indeed. Dr Phil also shows a human side and having Robin on once in a while is great. She is the darling of the show. Kudos to the staff for doing such a wonderful job too. The show could not be such a success without you. I love the show. It's well done and Dr Phil is so diplomatic (most of the time LOL). The shows are well done and really hit on some very tough situations that are real and very painful. Some of the episodes break my heart. The one where the woman had anger issues (I know which one?), where she was beating her son and swearing even though he was pleading for her to stop. The one where she hurt his knee.......... Couldn't sleep for 3 nights! I hope the children are taken away until she has help and is more in control. These things have to be exposed. Keep up the good work and good luck to your further success!
Cheers,

Did you not hear Dr. Phil say that the liklihood of relapse in addicition diseases is 85% I have been a widow for 3 years now as my husband drank himself to death, like pulling a trigger on a gun in slow motion. He sought treatment numerous times, came out strong, with a positive attitude, attended AA meetings etc. He was highly intelligent, a college graduate, sociable & personable, but he just could not keep the monkey off of his back. Trust me, the 14 years were not a bed of roses, I still love him, miss him & know the pain he endured with the struggle with his addiction. How fortunate you are not to know anyone with the problems of addiction or have experienced it in your lives, but let me tell you it is everywhere, upper class as well as lower class. Please find kindness in your heart for these people and realize that Dr. Phil's show is not just for entertainment but dealing with everyday problems sweeping our country . I am not a religious fanatic, but may I say "judge not, lest ye be judged."
