Child Abuse

Irregardless of what the wimp of a father says or does Child Welfare needs to be called in because there is physical and emotional abuse coming in from both parents.  Yes both parents.  The father emotionally abuses his daughter by not stepping in and rescusing her from her beatings which I have no doubt are/were daily from her step mother. 

  

I'm glad Dr. Phil stepped in but what can a busy (but loving) celebrity actually do?  He needs his staff to work with the staff of the Child Welfare office of that couple's state and maybe something positive can come out of this. 

  

Because right now I am so furious I can't think or see straight.  If anyone dares to hit or abuse any of my three nieces and I catch wind of it.  The abuser, me, and a shovel are making a trip to JFK and me and my shovel will return.  I don't give a darn how angry a 4 YEAR OLD CHILD makes you YOU DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO TAKE A WHIP TO THE CHILD AND LEAVE WELTS.

Grandma needs therapy

Grandma's dialog is that she was married to an controlling, disrespectiful and abusive husband and she failed to protect her kids from it. 

  

So now to reinvent the past she has embraced the role as a controlling and disrespectful mother/grandmother.  She is disrespectful to her daughter and her husband and finds it perfectly alright to domineer their relationship. 

  

I'm sorry but where does she get off? 

  

Ok so the daughter doesn't have a spine (thanks to dear old dad and now mom) so where is the husband's?  My husband has no problem telling my mother and/or father to go to hell when they have overstepped their boundaries. 

  

Sounds like Daughter needs therapy and the locks changed.  Also Mom needs to get a life and a very good therapist. 

  

Dr. Phil just asked the daughter what she wanted.  She sounded like such a wuss.  As a New Yorker I want her to repeat the following statement to her mom: 

  

"Mom, the locks are changed and no you aren't getting a key.  Back off.  The guilt trips no longer work.  You want to die, go ahead because you are killing me, so either way you won't get to see me without an invitation.  You are a visitor in my life not a dictator.  Don't like it, TOUGH."

All I can hope for is...

what Dr. Phil is always saying "past behavior is an indicator of future behavior" and that Alex is pregnant again. 

  

As far as Katherine is concerned, I hope she is doing well.  She was the lone sheep who I truly identified with (for different reasons).  I hope she is studing to work with aquatic wildlife and is happy. 

  

Alex is right when she said in the clip, I don't care what other people think of me.  But she has to realize that her little son will be entering Pre-K and Kindergarten soon and that people and their off-spring will make his life a living hell.  Hopefully she has grown up enough to deal with that.

Please Please Please

Tell your viewers that the children are safely removed from that house of horrors. 

  

Please please please have an update show quickly before your season ends because I'm still emotionally reelling from that show.  It took me this long just to post a message because I can't get those kids out of my mind. 

  

I want both parents arrested, thrown in jail, the children removed from the home, and then let the children have the therapy first.  The "parents" (and I use that word oh so loosely) can then fight for their lives both through the court system and repair themselves mentally with anger management and pschological classes.  throw in for good measure parenting classes and maybe meeting grown up children from abusive parents. 

  

Hold nothing back because these idiots need to be taught a lesson. 

  

Off to hug my nieces and husband and thank my lucky stars those two don't live in my neighborhood.  Because I have no problem calling the police when I think abuse is happening whether it is physical or emotional. 

  

PS where the heck were the teachers in all this? 

  

Kate

Been on the receiving end

I'm the new kid at work.  One of the employees has made it her life's work to make my daily work life a living hell.  As someone who used to stutter (and occassionally still does depending on how tired I am), and now works with disabled young adults, this employee loves to make fun of me and the "consumers." 

  

One day I paged for an employee and mispronounced a couple of words (I tend to do that with "th" words).  The employee understood but the "bully" employee got back on the page system and said "reception meant to say.........."  This "bully" employee disrespects me behind my back and to my face. 

  

It was the original airing of this episode that helped me in getting the "bully" employee back in line.  Ignoring her didn't work but internalizing the dialog was making me believe that "everyone" thought I was a jerk and unprofessional.  Once I shut up the internal dialog, I let the bully know she was a jerk and to get over herself.  We aren't in high school anymore and this childish behavior was getting boring. 

  

It took a consumer complaining to his mother, that he was sad that this employee was treating the "friendly receptionist" so badly (my first day I signed hello to him as the consumer is deaf, the same employee said to me not to waste my time).  The mother came in and personally wrote up this employee on my behalf as she agreed that I'm friendly. 

  

The mean employee still is disrespectful but my sarcastic wit and fast comebacks has made her life hell as I don't take her cruel statements with a grain of salt. 

  

The moral of the story, this employee doesn't know it but she is being fired today.  Many "consumer's" guardians and/or parents have been complaining about her as the "consumers" figured if I can fight back so can they.  I can't wait to see her face when she is let go. 

  

Thanks Dr. Phil for giving me a wake up call about the "internal" dialog.  I can't sing so why the heck would I add my voice to the choir.
