These guests want an apology from a loved one, but the loved one refuses to say he or she is sorry! Christie says her husband, Vance, has abused her physically and emotionally. She says that not only did she have to have him arrested, but that he’s disrespectful to his stepchildren and calls them names like “sissy” and “promiscuous whore.” He has even been fired from three jobs for alleged sexual harassment. Vance says he does not owe his wife an apology, and his name-calling is just preparing the kids for the real world. Then, Tammy says she’s furious with her husband, Charles, who got gastric bypass surgery against her wishes. She says the surgery changed him for the worst and turned him into a cheater. Charles says he’s never cheated on his wife, and refuses to apologize for a surgery that saved his life. Is Tammy the one who owes Charles an apology for her suspicious behavior? Share your thoughts, join the discussion.

Gastric Bypass Decision

Quote From: patriots_fan

APOLOGY???? This woman needs to walk out on this jerk  yesterday!  Anyone  who would talk to children that way needs to have Social Services involved. That is verbal abuse, and can be as detrimental as physical abuse. 

 

As for the gastric bypass surgery.  Aren't things like that supposed to be joint decisions? 

 Surgery to save your life is in NO WAY a joint decision!  If the person getting the surgery wants to consider someone else's opinion they can, but there is no rational requirement for them to do so.

If they were 25 years old and she was pregnant and decided to have an abortion, just how much say do you think he'd have?  I mean, she could be nice and tell him about it, but if she decided to go ahead he couldn't do a thing, and most of you would say 'rightfully so' even though an abortion isn't a 'life-saving' procedure.

He told her about HIS decision on what he was doing with HIS body.  If a woman tells a man that SHE will decide what to do with HER body, everyone applauds.  If you fail to applaud the reverse when it happens, you show yourself to be a biased sexist.

Protect our children from these kind of

Hei America!

I have something to say about dr. Phil's program on the issue of molesting a child. If a parent or grandfather or any in the close family molest a child. This person should never ever again be allowed to be near the child. This child (is proven) to be traumatically remembering the molesting even from very erarly stage of life. Professionals conclude that a child for instance, taken away from its parents between 1-3 years of age will suffer traumatically when reaching adult life. So being mollested will be rememberd, without a single doubt. If they as a parent, allow this evel person to be close to the child, they should be taken away from the child as well. Even only thinking of having a right to be close to the innocent child is criminall. I am not sure what you will be saying to these people dr. Phil, but I hope for God sake you do not agree that these people can ever get away with the criminal act. In Norway we would not allow it.

Cheers to you all,

from Oslo, Norway
