Admit it, you've judged people for doing things you considered inappropriate and abnormal in public. Meet Margaret, a stay-at-home mom who's tired of everyone thinking sex is taboo. She says she absolutely loves sex and she'll talk about it anytime, anywhere ... and with all of her kids. This includes showing them her sex toys, her sex swing and her X-rated Web site! But that's not all. Margaret is in a relationship with another woman, Jen, and Jen's husband. Now that she's pregnant, both women say they plan on breastfeeding the baby. Then, meet a husband who sometimes uses the F word six times in one sentence! Plus, meet three kids who think their mom dresses too sexy, and follow a woman's quest to change people's behavior in the grocery store, one shopper at a time. Join the discussion.

Find out what happened on the show.

04/07 Social Taboos: Is This Normal?

Guess for this one I'll have to list it off, all of the guests on today's show really had me peed off.

1) The sexual education of our children is needed, masturbation is NOT a dirty word, unless you are telling the world about it and subjecting your child to public humiliation. Keep your sex life to YOURSELF, the children DO NOT need to be involved, nor do they want to be. A fourteen year old should NOT be having sex, I don't preach virginity until marriage to my kids, but I always told them, wait until you are old enough to deal with the cosequences, and yes the good doctor was way too easy on those women. Being brought up in an unternative home is not necesarily a bad thing, but those children were exposed to things that I at thirty- six wouldn't want to be exposed to. And yet they continue to reproduce ? And the idea that it is a PRIVATE blog, NOTHING on the web is private, how many teenage boys are now hoping the daughter is just as easy as mom ?

2) Buddy, grow up. Cursing in every sentence is a sighn of a weak , and yes uneducated mind, if you have nothing nice to say then please shut up and stop subjecting the rest of us to it, I'm no saint, and yes I have said things I shouldn't, but it's not a habit, and I am sesitive to the other children around me, wait until your son says F*** you to his teacher.

3) And as for the mom who dressed young, I think you were the only one today I could say YOU GO GIRL, I have always said you know what, I'm thirty six, have had three children and I am still a size four, the other soccer moms are jealous, or at least the ones I'm exposed to are, if I want to show my midriff I will, but not at PTA meetings or parent teacher night, there are limits.

4) GET A LIFE!!!! Are you that weak and helpless that you cannot lift that massive bar yourself, and separate your groceries ? Are you that important, maybe the cashier should just roll out the red carpet for you ?

I'm wondering too if doctor Phil is taking his examples from another talk show ( will remain nameless but I think most people will get it) that seems to deal better with this type of thing, except no chairs are flying around

Quote From: arackish1

it actually makde me sick to watch this show today. margaret and her girlfriend and her boyfriend should be put in jail and there kids should be taken away from them. i agree call DSS now dr. phil. this is child abuse if i ever saw child abuse.

I agree 100%...I love Dr. Phil but, I was disappointed today in how he handled it. This is abuse...the fact that she uses humiliation as a discipline tool was infuriating enough. Dr.Phil should have beentougher on her. She is deperately seeking attention and this is the venue she picked. Could someone tell me how you breast feed a kid you did not give birth too?

Quote From: tlove22

I am a Christian, but I don't think I even have to impose my views in that respect on this subject to get my point across.

Margaret and her lover Jen both have such low self-esteem and yes, it's probably because they are both overweight and unattractive. But instead of finding ways to learn to love themselves the way they are, they're choosing other ways. I mean, heck this guy what was his name Trey or Trent or something, the husband? He sure has the life doesn't he??? Well it may be all pretty now? But women out there, how many of us do you know who do NOT possess a jealous streak? Something's up with that .... what do you bet in a few months we'll be seeing them on that other obnixious show where they reveal all that disgusting stuff about themselves ... I can't even think of it it's so gross.

And Margaret or Jen, if you're reading this ... guess what?

Your kids are the kids who moms like me cringe over when we find out our kids know them. That's the problem with a lot of this ... you think you're only affecting your own household? Oh no no. Your kids are getting lots of mileage off this "educating" all the others.

But of course, since you're only thinking of yourselves, you can't see that far.

Get help. Soon.

Isn't it a pity that those that need the help the most.....never get it!!! I guess we can only pray for Margaret and her sick partners..that they get help now and that those children are placed in a proper structured home setting, with "real" parents.

if the person doesn't use the space bar, then you do it. what is so hard about it. i can't believe dr. phi even gave you the time of day on such a silly thing. grow up and find some thing to really bitch about. and for all those people who live near you, i hope the feel you cart up with stuff you don't need.

I agree, but let's face it, some people just need a reason to be mean, and she has found a way to be vindictive and a coward at the same time. How brave, sliding expensive items into someones cart just because she is to lazy to reach for the bar.

Ugh!

Well, as for Margaret. If my parents educated me in that matter, I'd die. I'm 17. And at the age of 14, if they had ever showed me sex toys, or encouraged me to masturbate...how would I learn anything about sex anyway? If anything it encourages you to have sex without love. Sex without love isn't healthy, I've seen a lot of my friends get used...just all caught up in the "pleasure" aspect, which is what Margaret seems to encourage.

Exposing children to sex that young doesn't seem great either. I mean, that's part of why we enjoy our childhood...yeah, we're naive. And yes, being TOO naive is bad. What kids need to know is not to talk to strangers, not to take candy from strangers, not about sex toys and masturbating, etc, etc, that all comes with teenage years, even for the people a sheltered as myself, haha. :P

Kids at school

The minute kids get some new info on sex, they share it at school, so you can bet these kids tell their friends stuff. I wonder if Mgt &Jen were molested at all as children or one of them,because of the extra weight on both, the lesbian lifestyle and the lack of boundaries. I am sure they were reported and then goodbye kids. At least I hope so ,but I hope a good relative might seek custody. Then they would have family but these 2 ladies would have to get supervised visitation with counselling. I think Dr. Phil didn't want to spring the news on them on the air. What did they really expect? These kids can be helped if they get out of that bizarre environment. I'm not saying incest turns women into lesbians but I'm just wondering if it might be part of their history. I know gay women who are pretty conservative in their relationships and jobs and can be good parents and very loving. Not giving your kids any boundaries just confuses them. I bet those kids are already out of that house,at least I hope so. Oh yeah, and I wish for world peace and stronger sentences for parole violators. ( I just threw that in because my first post about these ladies didn't get printed.) :>)Have a good night all.

Before we condemn her???

Quote From: shiruk

I think people should feel free to talk about sex. Let's de-taboo the subject. But at the same time, children need to receive age appropriate information on sex and adults should be educated about this. I believe that the woman who is sharing her sex life/toys with her children may be uneducated on this matter. Before we condemn her--lets remember that not all adults have educated minds.

Before we condemn her-let's remember that not all adults have educated minds. Condemn her? Heck, we should be jailing her for child abuse and lewd conduct! While we are remembering??? those children are learning....all about the wrong side of love and sexual relationships! While some adults do not have educated minds, some adults do not have adult minds at all and some adults, like Margaret and her partners have truly sick minds! Let's not spread the sickness. Remove the children and spare their minds. After all, a mind is a terrible thing to waste, a Margaret et al is truly bent on wasting away her time on self gratification, recklessly endangering children, and providing a non-nuturing evironment and mental/physical abuse to children. As far as Jen, it takes more than breast milk to be a mom!

I don't understand what the big deal is. Some people wish others will be courteous and others don't. Don't trash people for their opinions. I guess the people who get angry about what this woman does are the ones who don't take responsibility and just put the bar down like they are supposed to. If you want to take out your aggressions then put up a message about the lesbian women or a topic that really matters.
