In the second segment of the show today, a young woman had been taking care of a grown man for the last nine years.   I can sympathize with her and hope that she will just do what she knows she needs to do.  For the last three years, I have been taking care of my husband and three children all on my own.  I have a full time job and am taking online courses so that I may get into a better career for myself and kids.  He, for the most part, has been sitting around or hanging out with friends.  When he does get a job, he spends the money on things he needs and his bills, while our living expenses get backed up.  In three years he has never payed a bill, never payed the rent and taken over two thousand dollars of my money for his "business" transactions.  I have now become angry when I used to be bubbly.  I am divorcing him only because something in my head is telling me to run.  So I can definitely feel for the woman on the show today.  I am now entering the world with no support, no friends, no self esteem and three children, soon to be four, watching every move I make and every emotion I have.  I believe it can be done, but Dr. Phil was right, she will need LOTS of help and counceling during this time to help her get through this.  I wish her all the luck!  Her husband is not a real man!
