Topic : 04/07 Social Taboos: Is This Normal?

Is there any way we can ever know what happens to these people?  I hate to go to bed at night worrying about it.  I wish Dr Phil would post on here and let us know! LOL, if for no other reason so we could sleep a little easier knowing that a few more children were saved today!

I have been watching Dr. Phil for years and this is the first time I have been so angered about a subject that I felt the need to write in about it. I am fairly young myself and was raised by parents whom, when I asked questions in regards to sex, were honest and open. I am thankful for that. However, What those women were doing was a very blatant form of sexual and mental abuse of those children. She has stripped them of their innocence and identity. I have no judgment against their personal choices in their adult relationships nor against her website.. she should be keeping that to herself however, showing her child (14 is still a child) pornographic pictures of herself is quite simply abusive and demeaning. If Dr. Phil and his producers have any sense of moral obligation or decency they will submit all known information to CPS and in the very least someone should interview those children. It saddens me to think of what will happen to those children as they grow up and what type of situations they will fall prey to. Dr. Phil please stand up for and protect those children, it is obvious that no one in that house is. I am wondering now why you did not ask her "What on Earth are you thinking?! What is the matter with you!?" You must know that those children's psyches are being severely damaged. Earnestly, A.L.

Many of my friends and family members have worked as checkers in grocery stores and common courtesy is to place the separation bar down before you unload your groceries. After all there may not always be someone behind them.  Why she is getting her panties in a twist is puzzling to me. She thinks the world should follow her rules of courtesy without even asking people in the profession to see if, in fact, she may be the one not following protocol. What's so hard about putting it down herself. She's the rude one for not only refusing do it the accepted way but also because she is punishing others for not doing it "her" way. She seems like quite a control freak if you ask my opinion.

I found this topid kind of odd because when I go grocery shopping I very rarely see the bar.  The stores I go to must not have very many (Inclduing large stores such as Super Wal-Mart) In that case I just wait till the people are paying for their purchase and during this time I begin to unload my cart.  This isn't taking up anyones time because the cashier can't scan as fast as I can unload and I have started unloading before they begin scanning.  Maybe this is a better alternative, mostly for situations where bars aren't present.

What is wrong with you, your children will suffer for the way you are rasing them. Hopefully the right people have seen the show and take your children away.  You are a  very disturbed person..

I am a cashier in a grocery store and I completely agree with Kelly -  I get so aggravated when people think I should know when one order stops and the next one begins.  Some people actually watch me scan their items onto another person's order and then loudly tell me "that's mine".  If they would simply use the dividers the whole problem would be aleviated.  It's not like the dividers weigh 10 pounds or are hard to get to.  You go, Kelly, you can come in my line anytime you are in Orlando and come to the SouthChase Publix.

Quote = Well, are'nt you the TYPICAL rude shopper , you are always right !  

  

Move on for the next poster, please. You're trying to make something 

out of nothing here.  

  

  

I do not see anyhting wrong with the way you dress if I were 15 pounds thinner I would be dressing the same. Tell your kids GET OVER IT!!!!!!

And I also couldn't believe that Dr. Phil's response was "This is America". What is that?  We know where we live, what we don't know is why Dr. Phil, the defender of children couldn't come back with anything other than a geographical fix.
