Living on the Edge
Amy says her husband, Lee, has choked and kicked her, and even held a knife to her throat! Amy’s parents, Cynthia and Stan, fear for their daughter’s life and worry about the safety of their grandkids.
“I’m afraid that I might lose it and kill her.”
Kids in the Crossfire
Lee joins Dr. Phil via satellite because he’s on probation for a domestic violence charge, and cannot leave the state. He admits to having anger issues but says he’s working to control them.
Can Lee change his violent ways?
Conflicting Stories
Child Protective Services has ordered Lee not to have contact with his kids. Dr. Phil reveals what his staff witnessed at a visit to Amy’s house, and he gives her a strong wake-up call.
“I’m terrified of losing my children.”
