Dr. Phil, I believe there were several points that you failed to mention during this show.  The point I believe that was not addressed that bothered me the most was when Diana, "the perfect wife", was speaking about how she believes her marriage works great, her husband can put in 10-12 hour days at work, and she takes care of the kids, the house and him. Dr. Phil, why did you fail to address the issue that they are harming their children more then helping by leading this lifestyle. Is it not true that children need for both their mother and father to be active in their lives, and if her husbands only job is to provide financial support, then her children are being deprived of an involved father.  If he is working 10-12 hours a day, that doesnt leave much time for the kids, and eventually those kids are gonna resent either their father, mother, or both for it.  So while Diana may believe she is the perfect wife, she is far from the perfect mother. I believe Dr. Phil has said before that the best gift you can give your kids is to show them a good relationship between their parents, and if the father is working all the time, then he is not at home, not with his wife, not with his kids, and not setting a good example for their children.  

Dr.Phil, I think that it needs to be pointed out and explained to Diana what she is really doing to her children by leading this lifestyle!!!!!
