Carlea wrote to Dr. Phil saying she is concerned for the well-being of her young nephew. She says her brother, Jay, and the mother of his child, Cassie, have a toxic relationship that interferes with their co-parenting.
 
Jay and Cassie acknowledge that their relationship is stressful and full of fighting and that they often argue in front of their son.
 

After the taping, Dr. Phil shares his thoughts with the audience. “We did that story for one reason, and that’s because of the child,” he says. “If you know people in your family, or friends, or neighbors like that, you have to speak up.”
