So, you've more than made your point...over & over & over again! What DID you expect people to respond with? That was pretty hard to watch...AND Michelle wasn't asking for help as much as defending it, especially at first! It wasn't until Dr. Phil sort of started getting through to her that she even began to really cry for real. No, I'm not in their house, but Dr. Phil didn't say ONE word about her having an odd disorder or mental illness or anything like that. He researches these cases VERY well & he presented it as Michelle's CHOICE to act this way. He said as much on the show. SO, YES, I'm glad Michelle wrote for help. But she needed to realize WAY sooner on the show that she is TORMENTING those precious little girls! I don't know why you're defending them so much. I hope you're not abusive to your children, if you have any. Get real, as Dr. Phil says. Even HE was hard on her! Did you expect anything less than what you've read on the boards? Gimme a break. She is literally making her girls PHYSICALLY ILL! If there were any chance she had an odd, rare disorder, I'm fairly sure Dr. Phil would've found that out before he presented the show as he did. He didn't even bring that up. She's ADDICTED to being angry! And it has to stop! Those girls can't take ONE more day of it! So, you've more than made your point & upset & offended people who have been abused as well. I'd say you've made a pretty good day's work of it, so maybe you could lay off everyone now? That'd be nice. Thank you. I'm not angry at you--just the way you keep going into way-out stuff for excuses for Michelle. She knew by being on national TV that she'd be the subject of these boards. That's the way it works. Period. I hope she does get help! Have a lovely evening!   Joy
