Quote From: grosvo I have seen preview of this topic for a couple of weeks now.My stomach felt sick and I started to shake.It's not like I forget it happened to me,but to know someone else went through what I did.
I was also 9 when my mother walked in the room and found my father abusing me.I can still feel that moment when my mother said my name and asked what had I done.I remember feeling so dirty,wonder why she was angry with me.My father had been abusing me from my earliest memories.My mother also stayed with my father for a year after she found us together.My father never abused me again since then.But years later found out he abused my younger sisters(I was the oldest).
At the time my mother found us,I remember her trying to call the police and my father took a gun and pointed it at my little sister head(she was about 3).He told my mother and myself that he would kill her if we told anyone.
Many years later ( 1991) my sister(3 of ) and I pressed chargers against our father and he got 18 years in prison served 13 and is out now.
I am now 52 years old ,a mother of 3 and grandmother of 2.
I guess I just wasn't prepared to see my past on Dr.Phil and to know how far you come in your healing it is always there.

I am an all around, give the person the benfit of the doubt. But let me say its not happening today. Dr. Phil you need to dismiss her from the stage. If I were a part of the audience I would be on that stage and make her not to ever want to be in public again. I want to find out where she lives and get thje media on that mothers butt. She would have to move.
The military needs to take great offense and take steps against however means are legally available to them, whether it be media or, oooh, anything.
I've never, ever been this angry, I've never registered to write in to anything.
She is the most selfish human, like I said she doesn't deserve to have the privilege of being called mother or woman. What about aiding and abetting?
I had similar issues in my family and let me say when I had my child, thats when it hit me. HOW COULD YOU EVER LET THIS HAPPEN? We suffered much physical abuse and that alone was horrible. It was something my mother saw every day and still stayed with my father. I RESENT HER TO THIS DAY MORE SO THATN MY FATHER! When I became a mother my heart was crushed. The love I have for my child is just unfathomable, so to look back I know my parents did not have those parental insticts or love for us.
Sorry Dr. Phil you should never agree to hide the identity of a sex offender. He doesn't deserve that accomadation, even if its the only way to get him on television. At least show your audience a picture so everyone everywhere can protect themselves and their families.
I'm watching this show as I respond and I'm getting angrier and sicker by the minute. I must stop typing. My request to you and your staff is please don't protect the identity of these monsters anymore. I don't know if it is a legal issue, so forgive my ignorance. But its not worth hearing from him if we can't see his ugly mug.
Thank You for this opportunity to respond to this horrific situation. NOT HIS REAL NAME? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? DR. PHIL, PLEASE HELP ME UNDERSTAND? I'M IN TEARS FOR THE DAUGHTER! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I must go.
