Topic : 12/11 Dr. Phil and Robin’s Christmas Show!

Dr Phil,

I watched the show today and loved it.  I think what you and Robin are doing is great.  I am confused on why only certain people get this special occasion.

I have 2 grandchildren that will not be getting anything for Christmas this year.  I am disable and my son got laid off from work 2 months ago and my daughter is confined to bed for a high risk pregnancy.  How can you give to all these people when these 2 children won't get anything they don't even have a tree.  There are lots of kids and grown-ups out there they don't get anything at all.  The parents work hard and don't make enough money to have Christmas for their children.  I know my kids don't qualify for any aid from this state so they do the best they can. 

Mary , that is so right if it wasnt't for his loyal tv watchers, I wonder if he would have a show, I don't have the money to do anything I am on dissability I have 4 kids 9 granchildren  really never had  a good christmas, my oldest daughter  went back to get her nursing career well she became preganet  ( which she was fixed 5 years ago ) they told her she is gonna have twins She says mom , I can't get my kids what they want they know it that we can't afford it but you look back and watch all theses tv shows being so happy giving gifts away it hurts sometimes I don't want to watch them but I am a loyal Ellen Degerous Show, Oprah Show, and the DR Phil show watch them everyday  why can't the poor ever get anything I don't even know what a IPOD is I've heard of it and seen it but that is all... but I tell my kids God will not pick nothing on your shoulder that you can't handle... this sis how the poor lives.....

I too feel it would be neat if Dr. Phil would find a way to include his TV Audience and perhaps those fans who post on the message boards when they do give-a-ways.  There are many, many ways to spread the wealth so to speak, and there are SOOOOOO many in need why limit it and give SO much to a studio audience? 

I donated to Toys for Tots, and followed Dr. Phil and Robin's recent auction on EBAY where the proceeds from the race suits went to Toys for Tots.  I applaud Dr. Phil and Robin for spreading Christmas Cheer, and no I'm not jealous I have plenty to be thankful for, but like others it would be nice to see maybe some of the viewing audience get some of the "goodies." 

I am also very slowly trying to regain my Christmas Cheer....I loved Christmas, the radio stations playing Christmas songs 24/7, the fact that people generally seem nicer around this time of year, but my Christmas cheer took a nosedive two years ago when my Dad died 2 days before Christmas, December 23, 2004. 

It has been a long, tough road, especially for my mother who has to face their home alone, and though my sister and I try we can never make it the same, nor will it ever be the same.  Instead of looking forward to Christmas, there will always be that sadness and a feeling of loss. 

So to everyone, appreciate what you have, appreciate your loved ones even more, because you never know *if* it will be your last Christmas together.  I only wish I could turn back the clock, I'd give anything for one last Christmas with my Dad.

watching the show made me cry my eyes out. i wish so much for me to one day be part of these great giveaways. i live by myself and my sofie pup, and have so much love all year around but this time of year i have so much joy for all children.

good love and blesses for all.

 Hello Everyone,

Merry Christmas. i think what they are doing so so great. The down side to this is that there is so many in need that not every one can be helped. thats the sad fact with our country we have people that are starved, homeless ect and we are worried about everyone else. lets start helping us.

things happen in life that we can not control. please remember this. and give from your heart not only at christmas time but all year long. i love the show.

MARRY CHRISTMAS AND GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU
