09/22 Follow-Ups

Quote From: dotell

Our governments have allowed drugs into our country and here do very little to really crack down on their sale. A country only gets what the law allows. They can be seen selling them in every city in the country but rarely do the authorities do anything. If your country is full of crime then it is obvious that the authorities, the law is doing very little to stop it. The implications are that by ignoring it they are condoning it. Our laws are very lacx on crack down on drug pushers,millions are being spent to prevent terrorists but little is spent on stopping drug trafficing. It shows where their priorities stand.
Blame the gov't? Brandon appears to be well-educated and had an above average life style growing up. Having said this, he has heard the dangers of drugs since Kindergarten. Granted he was a kid, but you teach kids from little tykes that they suffer the consequences of their decisions. He has had more chances than a lot of people. His arrogance is still in the way of any recovery. As a member of Al-Anon for a long time, tough love is still a best answer. It's hard, very hard, but it works more often than not.

Now, blame the gov't?  Seems to be the answer to everything. Anything we don't like or understand blame the gov't. By the way who do you thinki that is...it's every one we vote into office. The courts and jails are fulll of  people with drug-related arrests,and the court dockets are backed up for months because of it.  Go ask your liberal law-makers, lobbyists etc how they feel about illegal immigration--do you have any idea how many drugs are brought in with them?  The gov't is way down on the list of people to blame. If no one bought the drugs how could they push them? Hmmm

Tasha was Interrupted?

Quote From: alfromcanada

SHE was interrupting him all the time, were you Whatching the same show??
Hmmm, she got to talk with little or no interruption. Howerver, when the camera wasn't on her she jabbered the entire time, every time. I couldn't even hear what he was saying most of the time. She is rude, arrogant and not nearly as wonderful as she seems to think she is.

Ask Questions???

Quote From: jodie0728

It is all about asking the right questions.  Be a detective.  Ask specifics.  What part of NY do you live in.  Will you call me?  Give me your phone number...If they sound African.  They are probably African and if they look like a model, chances are that is not their picture.
Better yet, IGNORE it. Are there really people that naive anymore?  The phony checks that come in the mail about winning a lottery Yeah right!  Did you enter a lottery in Canada, Indonesia or even Kentucky? No, well throw the letter out. Good grief. How can you say I love you over & over to someone who is a phantom at best. Hello, wake up and smell the proverbial coffee!!!  These are no-brainer issues.

Amen

Quote From: buckee

Dr. Phil needs to go beyond yelling at this guy (who's a dog, no doubt), and get to the real issues of

-WHY he feels the need to control and belittle his wife

-and more importantly, WHY she lets anyone tell her she's worthless, or has fat thighs, and accept that as truth.  WHY does a 24 yr old woman not have a drivers' license, WHY does she feel the need to play the victim rather than standing up for herself, WHY she chose to marry a man like that in the first place.  This man is toxic for her, but if she doesn't figure out what drew her to him in the first place, she'll find another one just like him.  She needs to know that she plays some responsibility in this; she is not a helpless victim.


This is ridiculous at best. He is to blame, but she is no less without fault. She couldn't take care of things with 1 baby, so gee let's have another and ANOTHER.  She shares just as much blame as him. OMG immaturity at its worst. He worked 2-3 jobs--yes she had responsibility and she should accept it. Dr Phil should have seen her face. She may have been shaking--but probably no by sitting by her husband. She could have been nervous because of the circumstances. And that whiny voice. She was always the baby--I've seen it before. Now she has to get up and do something and has. But the should stay apart.  I think this was a terribliy 1-sided show.
