Then, they have their last meeting with Dr. Phil, who tells them what they both need to do when they get home in order to repair their marriage. Are both Todd and Jessica committed to saving their relationship? Plus, a stern warning from Dr. Phil about parenting their children. Did they take Dr. Phil’s advice? Find out as he follows up with this family two months later. One of them is conspicuously absent in the follow-up and the other reports some sad news. Share your thoughts, join the discussion.

What goes around comes around!

Im not sure if Jessica reads these or not either.But i do have to say that i wish Todd and the boys well. And these wonderful people are better with out her. If Jessica reads this, this is for you....I have never met anyone so selfish in my life! The more i watched the show the more i was upset at you. You made yourself out to be the victim. And you are not! When Dr Phil said if your husband doesnt stop with the yelling then you need to leave. You saw it as " Your right"! POOR ME! WAHH! I have never seen anyone more phony then you! Your pathetic tears were not genuine whatsoever! The whole entire time you were really obvious that you were anxious to get home to your lovers! When the older boy asked" Do you really think she loves me"? Who has the heart honestly to tell him no i dont think she does! Sorry Dr Phil i dont see that. If you love your child you wouldnt of call him names or yell the way she did! Know what Jessica i hope the day you find true love i hope it blows up at you the way it blew up in the man who once loved you! You better pray that the boys have a better chance at holding a relationship and not be stupid like you!!! Because you are a very selfish unfit mother, woman, and wife!!! You better hope your kids dont screw up and act like you. Hopefully that wonderful dad will show them what reaI love is and how to hold a happy home. And make sure they dont end up with a woman like you ! I hope Todd finds the best woman ever in his life and loves him and cherrish's them boys more then you. And when you see your own boys going to her instead of you....you know who to blame. And when your lovers dump you because they see the true colors of you....I have no sympathy for you! You deserve what you got! And to the readers if you find this letter harsh i'm sorry. I just dont think she wasnt thinking of the boys and the husband the whole time she was thinking of herself!

Oh Jessica

Jessica is a total fake. She lied from day one of the show. I believe that her whole life is a lie. It is so sad that these children are having to go through all of this. I am happy that Jessica lost custody of her middle son. She does not know how to be a mother. I also believe that Todd should get custody of Tyler. I believe that a lot of Todds anger and yelling was because of Jessica. All he wanted was answers and all she could do is lie. It was amazing at the reunion show. Todd looks great and does seem somewhat at peace. His son looks like a totally different person. He looks ''alive'' and at some peace himself. I think that it is best that they are going their seperate ways and I also believe that it is in the best interest of the children. Todd needs to fight her to the end for custody of their son. I wish Todd and his children the best. In the end they are better off.

Dr Phil House Part 4

I have followed the family & I missed the show yesterday. I am unable to view it on the Dr.Phil website. Could someone please give me an update as to what happened on Monday's show. I thought I heard on a clip that there was another bombshell or secret to be revealed. I really think that Jessica just came to the house to be on T.V. She didn't care about Todd or the kids. She just loves the drama & this was probably like being on a soap opera for her.

I would be so appreciative if someone would respond & tell me what happened.

Thanks

What a disaster!

I am so happy this couple has split up. Those children deserve to be in a much happier environment, whether it be with other family members or another home.

The father played a major part in their troubles. Needless to say, I am not at all impressed with his fatherly ways. But, I do have to give him credit for realizing it and seeking help. I wish the best for him and the children.

I wasn't surprised that the unfit cheating mother/wife left. I knew she wouldn't "try" when they left, you could see right through this lying woman. She is the one that really needs counseling. It's either that, or she's going to end up in the same situation and relationships. She is going to be a very unhappy person throughout her life.

Told you so!!!

"but when Dr. Phil checks in two months later, only Todd participates in a follow-up. "

That sums it up, this just goes to show that this "woman" doesnt care about her husband and worst of all doesnt care about her kids. She never wanted to work on her and her familys problems, not before she went to the DRPhil house, not during her stay, and cares even less now that she is out of there. I would be willing to bet she didnt even put up a fight to get custody of her kids, unfortunately thats the only thing she has done right this entire time.

Im sorry I dont see how any of you people can defend this woman and her actions, the worst you can say about Todd is he gets angry around the kids, other than that every morsel of anger and every emotion he showed towards that woman was 100% justified.

Joke

Quote From: blgspc

That Jessicas messed up. What I do believe is that she has messed up. Having the affairs. Not being honest about those affairs or just NOT making her self clear about what if anything she want(ed)s to do in the marriage.

She has come clean under lights and on camera and on network television!

I, also, watched all of the four shows. I was with the rest of you until I watched todays show.

As I watched the show today, I was again aware, that this woman had no respite from this angry, clingy, needy man! I mean if Todd wanted to actually salvage the relationship as he had indicated, he was CERTAINLY doing everything possible to undermine that possibility! Dr. Phil had warned Todd about his choice of following her EVERYWHERE-even into the bathroom and shower- to incessantly obsess, rant and become so preoccupied with his, You done me wrong! thing that he wouldnt allow for any sort of space or even time for child care or even to reflect so that at a later time when the children werent around that ANY sort of healing could really begin.

IM NOT defending Jessicas VERY serious role in the unraveling of this marriage. I definitely agree with Dr. Phil that this woman is probably emotionally confused, right now. After the CONSTANT ceaseless and relentless badgering, he actually, further, set his marriage up to fail, even as they were preparing to leave the house. (Geez, I would have moved to the South Pole if it meant that I could have just one minute to come up for air AWAY from the man.)

Thus, I believe that both Jessica and Todd share equally in the failure to recover in this marriage.

This is DR.Phils joke post of the day, it mustbe. If this isnt a joke posting than it is really sad, I find it abhorant you dont think that Todd has the right to blow up and hound this lying woman for the truth,when it has been PROVEN that she cant tell the truth. How may battles did they have about Todd saying she had an affair and the strumpet denied denied denied, wich actually was lie lie lie? This man was fighting for the truth and this woman was fighting not to give it. Todds only mistake IMO is he shouldnt have yelled with the kids in earshot, but I think DR.Phil needs to take some blame for that because those kids shouldnt have been there in the first place, they should have been staying with their grandmother in a nearby hotel.
She deserves everything she recieved from her husband and more, Todd should seek custody of all the kids and only allow visitation if the children ask for it, and who here realisticly believes that these children want to see this woman?

Dr. Phil Have you Lost it?

I just couldn't get over the fact that Dr. Phil brought in the Mother-in-Law!! To quote you Dr. Phil "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING???????" I don't see what that accomplished by doing that!! Other then helping to draw that line in the sand even deeper!!! My Mother -In-Law would be the LAST person I would want to see had this come up in my life!!! Dr. Phil PLEASE tell me that you're not loosing it!!!

Yes I say what's on my mind LOL!!

Dr. Phil, I'm still a fan though ;)

Todd is going to be fine

Quote From: sjw_0821

Hey Todd,

I want to say that I am SOOO proud of you for really working hard and trying to be a better dad to your kids I REALLY hope that you get custody of your youngest kid Learning to control your temper and be a better dad is hard to work on I have never been in that situation in my life but I can ONLY imagine how frustrated and how angry I would have been too if I was him but I am glad that he was able to let it go and be happy with his life and I am proud of him for being able to let go of Jessica that must of been SOO hard too! YOU ARE SOO AWESOME !! Also I wanted to say that I am VERY impressed that you forgave her after her having an affair not only 1 time but 2 TIMES WOW you are a better person then I am. I don't think that I would have given her another chance if it was me because that is just UNACCEPTABLE to do that so you are better then me for doing it. Also I am SOOO sad it broke my heart I almost started crying when the oldest boy poured out his heart to Jessica to BEG her almost for her love I am glad that Dr. Phil said that she did love him. But for him to ask that and to wonder that is just sad. I REALLY hope and pray for Todd and his kids that he will keep up and continue to do what he is doing and keep working on those things.

I couldn't have said it better. I think Todd is going to be better off and a better parent now that he is out of that toxic relationship. I hope he thinks twice before getting involved with a woman who will cheat on her husband. It's true what Dr. Phil said about cheaters "if they will do it with you they will do it to you". Too bad Todd had to learn the hard way. The sad thing is that he will always be connected to this witch since they have a child together. I hope Dr. Phil keeps gives us an update in a few months about how Todd and the boys are doing. I am concerned for the youngest since he indicated having suicidal thoughts. All Jennifer cares about is her lust for the man she is currently involved with.

10/09 The Dr. Phil House: A Family's Last Chance, Part 4

Quote From: jtberndt

You have no idea what is going on, to say he is living with his mom, and she is with a boyfriend, and they are fighting over the biological child, GROW UP . And you to say they don't want them PLEAZZZZZZZZZZZE. It may be reality , but you need to grow up and find reality !!!!!!

Todd...Please cease with all of the drama queen responses and focus what little parenting skill you have on your children...they need you, this website does not. Your posts are clear indications that you have a long way to go and a lot of work to do. And please practice the GROWING UP that you are recommending to others.
