(Original Air Date: 12/05/06) Dr. Phil and Robin answer viewer questions! Melissa wrote in because her boyfriend, Destin, believes gambling is his right because he’s the man of the house. But Destin’s hobby caused them to lose their home, and Melissa fears that their son will grow up without basic necessities. Robin shares her own personal experience with a father who had a gambling problem and offers hope for this family’s future. Then, meet a couple at odds over whether giving their children “kiddie cocktails” will promote underage drinking and glorify alcoholic behavior. Plus, a young woman who thinks affection is “gross,” a woman who needs more romance, and a special surprise for an inspirational woman devoted to changing the lives of young burn victims. Join the discussion!

06/19 Ask Dr. Phil and Robin

Quote From: ictaurean

I agree. Have married to someone who has a history of gambling and in denial that it is his right no matter what. The best way it to find a solution to save yourself and your kids, because this person does not listen or to admit that their addiction is ruin the family.

I guess I was not clear. My husband does not gamble. That was just my father. However, both my husband and father are controllers and make me feel like a child. I know at this point in my life after having two car accidents in two years and have back damage and balance issues, I should just be happy with my husbands controlling behavior because as time goes on, I physically can not do things without him. It is very hard to give up any of my independence to anyone

To Robin......Dr. Phil, u r cool but this is for her...

You literally could make millions if you were EVERYBODY'S ADOPTED MOTHER-IN-LAW, or grandma or mother. Everybody loves you and it would be cool. My daughter is 2 1/2 years old and my mother-in-law has never called to say a simple "hello" to her. I told her they don't have a phone. But my mom calls her all the time. I'm glad the mother-in-law is a few states away in WV. We live in MN.
