Erin said that she was planning on divorcing Marty when Alexandra announced that she was pregnant, but Susan asks, "What does Alex being pregnant have to do with you putting your children in a healthy environment? What kind of examples are you setting for Alex and Katherine by staying married to Marty?"
"You show those girls that it's OK to be lied to," Susan continues. "Are you afraid of trying it on your own?"

"She has two emotionally unhealthy daughters, a 15-year-old who has already had a baby, a 13-year-old who wants to divorce her family," says Susan. "There's no line of communication in the family."

Dr. Phil supports Erin. "I think if you're going to get out of a marriage, you have to earn your way out of it," he says. "You have to do every possible thing you can to save it."
