I realize this will be an unpopular opinion, but I believe what your guests are experiencing is negative energies from some spirit or spirits. Any psychic or metaphysical practioner would be happy to teach you how to keep this negativity from causing havoc in your life. Upon waking in the morning ask that God send the white light of the Holy Spirit to surround with white light and to allow no negativity to enter your life. Do the same thing at bedtime. You can control the energies within your own self, but it takes belief and trust. 

For those of you who do not believe in psychics, shamans and metaphysical practioners, we do believe and worship God. We are not witches, we do not use  our God given gifts to put curses or hexes on others. Please understand our special gifts. We do not ask for them and most of us use them for good. Of course Dr. Phil would totally disagree with us, and that is his choice; but if you haven't tried it, don't knock it.  

For those of you who believed you are cursed.... simply ask God and the Holy Spirit to help change your life and help you achieve those things you seek. 

Having been married for 41 years to the same man, I decided to reflect and see if I should have had "wife lessons". I married 3 weeks after meeting my husband and we had 3 kids in 3 years. He was in the military and gone a great deal of the time. I used to get up an hour before him so I could fix my hair, put on makeup, get dressed and make him a hot breakfast. That lasted one year. During our 41 years he has told NEVER complained that the house was messy, or the dishes not done, or whether he had soup or a 3-course meal for dinner. When I tried a new recipe that was not so hot, he ate it and was happy he had dinner. When the laundry got behind, he pitched in a did a few loads. I am organized, but not as well as he is (he is a perfectionist Virgo), and if he doesn't like the way the cupboards are, he straightens them out.  

Grant, what you don't realize is this is a partnership. No one is right or wrong about how the dishes go in the dishwasher, how the canned goods are stacked, or if her car is vacuumed. Life is a learning experience and so is marriage. There is so much more to marriage than these silly little things. I know you are not perfect, none of us are, but give the girl some slack. Trust me, if you work on this a little everyday, 41 years from now, you too can look back and have the wonderful memories like I have. And you know what?  You will laugh over these things! You will wonder why you wasted time worrying about this when you should have been enjoying your free time with your wife and children. We are never assured of tomorrow Grant, live your life and love your family as if this were your last day on earth. Blessings to you and your wife. Don't let the mundane ruin your love. 

I have a 21 yr old daughter who is bipolar...diagnosised at age 14. She has been on so many kinds of meds that it isn't even funny. We did discover one fact..she is also ADHD and was taking ritalin, then adderal...the drugs for ADD or ADHD do not work with the bipolar drugs. Her doctors did not know this. We finally figured it out after working with our pharmacist. Since she has been off ADHD  meds, the bipolar meds seem to work much better. She also tried Topamax, but it made her very agitated. Then is no one drug that helps everyone, it is just trial and error, which is terrible for the patient.

As I watched the show today, I got really angry. Claudia doesn't realize how lucky she is to have a mother who cares about her and her grandchildren. Bernice was being beaten down by both Claudia and the great Dr. Phil. Are you so blind you cannot see how much love this woman has for her family and how lonely she is. Good Gwad!! It doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure that out. When my kids were growing up I would have  given anything to have my mother care half as much as Bernice did. My kids NEVER spent the night at grandma's house and she never babysat them. Claudia, your mom is right....your moving to Ireland could kill her. At this point in her life your and your kids are so important to her. You young mothers today feel that your moms are trying to tell you how to live your lives. All we try to do is help you avoid the mistakes we made and help make your life better. The day will soon enough come when grandma won't be around and you will realize just how much she meant to all of you. Please don't push her out of her life. Be a little more kind and respectful. Talk to her kindly. Bernice, my advice to you is give them back their key. If an emergency arises, call 911. Knock before you go in and just give Claudia a quick call before you go over. Claudia, don't keep those kids from Bernice. At our age our grandchildren are a precious gift to us and being kept from seeing them is like having a knife stabbed in our heart.  

Phil.....you were way off the mark with this one!!  

My husband and I were 19 when we married. I was so insecure that I wanted children right away. After the first one I never went back on this pill, this having 3 kids in 3 years. Biggest mistake of my life. My husband came from a family of 14 and did not really want kids, but I was so insecure that I felt they would keep him with me. That part worked, but we should have never been parents. We can from dysfunctional families, we were a dysfunctional family, and all my kids have dysfunctional families. Discuss these things before you jump into them. Make sure you both are on the same page and make sure kids are what you both want. They aren't like puppies, there is no SPCA for kids.

It is great that you and Robin raised 2 boys and never experienced this kind of behavior in your family. Maybe you should back up a bit and try to understand these parents. No one has ever given parents instructions when these kids are born and many times we do not have the means to use other resources in dealing with them. Every person has a breaking point...everyone! These kids sometimes have problems that are bigger than anyone can handle. We had our kid at one of your wonderful Texas facilities and it didn't help. It fact, what she didn't know before, she learned there. 3 more facilities later, she was worse than ever. At age 19, we finally refused to let her come back home. We were able to sleep with our door unlocked at night, celebrate a holiday with no arguments and enjoy activities that normal families enjoy. She is 42 years old now, with 5 children that she gave up to the state, and she has not changed one bit. It cost our family alot of grief, pain, unhappiness and destruction. I wish that at age14 or 15 we had given her up to the state, but back then it was not possible. I understand the feelings of this mother and my heart aches for her. We do have the right to do whatever it takes to insure the whole family does not suffer because of one kid. Not everyone can be helped no matter what you say Phil.
