(Original Air Date: 10/26/06) Backstabbing takes many forms –- lying, spreading gossip and fueling nasty rumors. Dr. Phil’s guests say the ultimate betrayal didn’t come from a stranger, but from their own flesh and blood! Stacy accuses her younger sister, Christy, of being a traitor. She says Christy reported her and her husband to Child Protective Services for allegedly having child porn on the family computer! Christy sticks to her story, and vows to help put her sister and brother-in-law in jail. How far will she go? Stacy’s 16-year-old daughter claims her Aunt Christy is a liar, and says she’s ruining their family. Can these two sisters overcome the conflict between them, or is their relationship at the point of no return? Share your thoughts, join the discussion.

Find out what happened on the show.

CAN YOU BLAME HIM?!?!?!

Quote From: contiki

Why don't you do some research and find out how many children grow up being abused in their homes, how many times CPS investigates and says there is nothing wrong, then people keep calling them and one day, guess what?  the child grows up and tells herself, yes I was being abused, however, I didn't want to get my parents into trouble with the law!! 

Why wasn't the husband on the show.  UM, let's see  .... could it be that he is being accused of SEXUALLY ABUSING HIS OWN CHILDREN DESPITE THE FACT THAT HE HAS BEEN CLEARED OF ALL CHARGES?!?!?!  Why the hell would the man want to have his face plastered on national television ... I'm sure his reputation has been hurt enough.

Quite frankly, I don't know why BOTH Stacy and her husband aren't SUING Christy for DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER.   That woman is out of control ...

Did I miss something?

I have a question.  Why would Stacy and her husband turn the computer over to Christy and her computer guru husband if there was indeed child porn on it?  Did I miss something  or did they even cover that?  I ask only because everyone keeps wanting to know where Stacy's husband is.  I don't know if it even matters.  He may have decided not to continue to defend himself of Christy's story or he may have had to take care of the other children.  I don't want to make a decision one way or another.  Christy's story doesn't exactly add up but, abused children don't always come forward.  I haven't seen the investigation report either.  Dr. Phil seems to think they did a thorough job.  It would be nice to have more info on it.  I do keep going back to the fraud allegations so that Stacy would lose her license to be a midwife.  What does that have to do with protecting her children?  I also wonder why she wrote such a nasty letter to the DA's office. Does she really think that will get her anywhere?  I'm sure Dr.Phil's staff checked the story out well before he had them on the show.  I'm not so sure if he believes Christy.  He is definately an advocate for children.  I think he said something about putting him "under the jail".

Something is going on - with both sides

I believe that there is truth on both sides of this deal, but also see a lot of deception and denial.  The sister who puts her children back in the home with Mr. Porno needs help and there should be some sort of response to protect those kids.  But to the sister who is so ruthlessly attacking is up to no good too.  I actually got more creepy vibes from her because of her fanatic methods.  The letter destroying her sister's career is a good example - and frankly - sounds like Borderline behavior.  Overly sexual in nature, accusing everyone within range of abuse, seeking to destroy rather than protect. ... This behavior undermines her crediblity.  If my sister tried to "help" me this way I'd tell her to bugger off and sue her for defamation.  Sounds like one sick family all the way around.

And to the sister who went back to Mr. Porno - shame on you.  You've got kids to protect - that's your job mom.  Step up and walk on.  Take the evidence and get him away from those kids. 

So, I believe there's a fire here cause the smoke is everywhere...but also believe the accusing sister is part of that fire.  Step up and walk away from her too.

Shame on you

Quote From: kimberb

I hope Dr. Phil does his own investigation, because I feel Christy is telling the truth.  Why didn't the accused come on the show?  Perhaps he is not abusing his own children and maybe he hasn't abuse children to date but visiting child porn sites is beyonf wrong!!!!  And who leaves there husband for viewing regular porn-WAKE UP!!!!!!! She saw something that immediately made her pack up and leave.  Dr. Phil you are smarter than this..
You don't even know these people. You believe Christy just because she says it happened. I survived abuse and I am here to tell you...you don't know. Abuse comes in all shapes and sizes and can be covered up, but, just because someone says its so, with absollutely no proof, doesn't mean that you should blindly believe what they say. You are calling the daughter a lier, shame on you. I hope she doesn't read your comments. She saw a video in the trunk of her car lady....not "something". Perhaps you should have paid more attention to what was actually said.

Very Disturbing Show....

I watched the show this morning and this afternoon. I found Christy’s allegations appalling when stacked next to the actual facts. Her OBSSESSION with this family of children that she has reportedly seen ONLY FIVE TIMES is almost frightening.

I saw nothing in her raging tirade that was relevant to the concerns she had stated.

 

What I found MOST PROFOUNDLY DISTURBING was a seeming detachment from ANY concern for the emotional wellbeing of the children she insisted that she was trying to protect. Her actual intent seemed to be to destroy any hope for a normal life for her sister and those children.

 

Sadly, unlike Dr. Phil, I didn’t get the impression that Christy actually believed all of what she was saying. I believe that ‘the challenge’ to take a lie-detector screening was a transparent bluff to ‘look’ more believable to Dr. Phil and viewers of the show.

I would LOVE to know what the results of the lie-detector screening revealed. I will be astonished if Christy passed.

I really hope that at some point we get those results.

Amen

Quote From: msfrizbe

This is a fair summation of what all of the nation thinks.There are hundreds of comments about this woman and what she has done to this family.Very very few agree with her or her "noble crusade" about family violence.She is on a "CHRISTY CRUSADE" and has done NOTHING to help in the line of abuse or family violence.  What she has done is ruin the lives of an entire family.And for all the nation to see.She made an absolute fool of herself.Show her support ?I will support her getting serious mental help.

Yes very sorry

Quote From: purplepenny

I have two younger brothers and we are also the best of friends. We didn't come from an abusive home...I'm sorry that you did.

It too makes me sad to see sisters fighting. My brothers are so important in my life, they are wonderful uncles and they are great friends with my husband...

Although I do understand that just because people share DNA doesn't mean they are going to get along...lol

 

 I have 2 brothers and 1 sister, and they are very dear to me. It's hard to wrap your mind around  something like this. My sister and I are very close. We have shared many laughs, tears, and hugs. It's sad to think that not all sisters are like that. They don't know what their missing.

10/26 Backstabbing Sisters

Quote From: rkbenson

I just want to say that I feel that the daughter is not telling the truth. I have been around children that can lie to you and make you think they are telling you the truth. She has the look of a child that has been told to keep her mouth shut or she could regret it. It is not just the eyes it is the posture and the eyes. That child and mother have got something to hide and I feel so sorry for them.
You are so far off it's not even funny. That's my dad their talking about and that's my sister. He's not a abusive and she's not lying about this subject!
