While I was watching the show today and I watched Karla lie over and over again my mind drifted back to my own mother's behavior. She is deceased now,(because of her drinking) but was a very heavy alcoholic most of her life and all of mine. She too drank vodka straight from the bottle and had every excuse in the book for her behavior. Well, Karla, there is no excuse. You are doing damage to your children that you could never imagine. It is very sad that you cannot recognize you have a problem, and believe me, you have a problem. There are people who can help you at Dr. Phil and I would highy suggest that you take that help, if not for yourself at least for your children. Sneaking vodka into a talk show and drinking in the lobby is not normal. Please see what you are doing to yourself and your family and stop "finding"reasons to drink. Start looking at the reasons you have to stop!

Women who cheat during a marriage or relationship and know that there is a possibility that the child conceived during the affair could be another man's have a responsibility to determine paternity. This is not only for child support purposes but for the father and the child as well. I could not imagine the pain of thinking that I am the father of a child for years and then find out I am not. Although I am sure I would still love the child , it would be hard for me to think that I am still financially responsible. I think that if I was still with the mother..yes I would continue to support the child. If i was no longer with the mother I would have a real problem supporting another man's child..where is the real father??? He needs to step up and start paying for the child that he helped create!!

Dr. Phil,

MRSA is a bacteria..methacillin resistant "staph" aureus. The key word being "STAPH". That is a bacteria. I am shocked that as much research you do on a subject you could make this big of a mistake.

I know first hand about this awful bug. I contracted it from a spider bite. I was bit by a brown recluse several times and developed terrible abcesses all ober my body for over 2 years. I took multiple antibiotics, both oral and IV. Eventually I over came this, but not before it disfigured my body. I have horrible scars on my face, legs, arms, and hips. I feel for anyone who has had this or has this. It is an uphill fight all day everyday. The sadest part is the pain and scars that this causes. I have been hospitalized multiple times for this and I would not wish this on my worst enemy.
