Biggest Mistakes Parents Make

Thursday, January 23, 2025

In this insightful episode of Dr. Phil, parents learn how to avoid the biggest mistakes that could cost their children thousands of dollars in therapy—and countless hours of emotional turmoil—later in life.

First, Dr. Phil meets a mother who believes her daughter was simply “born bad.” As their tense conversation unfolds, the mother realizes her own behavior may be reflecting back through her child’s actions.

Next, a stepfather struggles to connect with his stepson, frustrated by their constant clashes. Dr. Phil emphasizes the importance of empathy and consistency over strict control, helping the stepfather see how a shift in his approach can foster a closer bond. Finally, the mother of twins faces a puzzling challenge: her daughter and son keep wearing each other’s clothes. Dr. Phil offers practical advice on understanding children’s individuality and guiding them with sensitivity.

Packed with real-world parenting wisdom, this episode is a must-watch for anyone wanting to raise balanced, happy kids. Check your local listings for airtime.
