Why did Dr. Phil have a couple on the show dealing with infertility that already have a child and have only been trying for 2-3 years???????
I was so very angry while I watched. I had to turn it off. I am so sick of hearing women that have already been able to conceive a child complain about not being able to conceive another. I have tried to conceive for 15 years, my husband and I have done everything medically possible with no success. Why not intereview someone like us? If you have a child, focus on that child, do you want that child to grow up thinking he or she just wasn't good enough? Wondering why you were so occupied, and put all of your focus and energy to have another child. Be thankful for that child you were blessed to have. Think about couples who have tried and tried for years, and still have no children.
How selfish!!
Sorry.. I had to vent!!!
I do love Dr. Phil, I watch him everyday, but I was very dissappointed about this show. I agree, to a point. While I'm not begrudging anyone's desire to have biological children, I have to wonder if there's more ego to reproduce involved, than true desire to have a family. Once it's clear there is a fertility issue after a couple has spent so much -- not just financially, but at a cost of time, stress, etc etc -- why does the obsession continue, as contrasted to going the adoption route?? There are so many kids who need a good home; all that money, energy & dedication, could have gone toward providing one (or more) with just that...
