The Other Side of Steve
Quote From: ramairI think Stephanie made some remarkable progress toward the end of today's show. That "princess" mentality she brought with her is a developmental phase most children go through when they enter toddlerhood. And, normaly grown out of. Stephanie just grew out of it much later in life, with Dr Phil's help. Now, it's Steve who needs to grow up! Accusing the team who won the tire-change challenge of cheating was bad enough. But, sulking about their prize was so over-the-top childish that had I been there, Dr Phil would've had to physically restrain me from sticking a pacifier in Steve's mouth. He knew that team would be getting a prize. And, for a tire-changing challenge, car's are logical prizes. And, they weren't even that expensive. KIA SUV's are about the lowest priced on the market. One would think, the way that steve threw himself on his bed, that the other team had won pimped out Beamer or Lexus SUV's. I'm surprised he didn't suck his thumb. Grow up, Steve! I think Steve's reaction showed a side of him that few people besides close friends and realtivesever see -- the side that Stephanie often responds to. He's a nice guy in so many ways, but he can be childish, sulky and passive-aggressive. Unfortunately, Stephanie's reactions have overshadowed his faults in the past. Now that she's controlling herself more, wecan see what Steve needs to work on. I hope they both keep working on their relationship, but I don't think she got enough credit on the show for her improvement.
