Topic : 01/26 Shopping Intervention: The Aftermath

I know this particular subject is somewhat passed, but it was the first time for me here in Australia. I couldn't help but draw parallels to the way I treat one of my kids occassionally, maybe a lot of the time lately. I couldn't understand where my anger was coming from. I am a firefighter and have had a really bad time of it in the last five years. I thought that my work was coming home with me and it was a means of venting fustration. Watching this show made me realise that my anger might be coming from a different place. My eldest son is struggling with his education and is immature for his age. He is such a great kid but my frustration gets the better of me I think, because all I want for him is success. Even thou the show has opened my eyes, it will take some work to change the way I have become. I feel the writing is on the wall for me and I don't want to be in the same position as Michael. I am wondering how the family is getting on now after their counselling sessions. Thank you Dr Phil, I hope this subject has been a wake up call to others.
