Hi All,

I, too, have watched Dr. Phil and have seen him dispense some really good
advice.  However - what I have seen is stuff that should really be common
sense relationship tools.  He has yet to give out anything thta I would
personally consider "Amazing" advice.  His demeanor is to me, and I
wholeheartedly agree with Dr. Jay - self-important, arrogant...dangerous.
Some of the ways he speaks to people - good grief.  I often wonder what
happens to those folks when they go homw and one says to the other - "You
let him embarrass me on national TV!"  One last thing - his information is
for ADULT couples.  Totally different creature than mom/baby dyad...where
baby has needs NOT wants and moms should be encouraged to meet baby's needs
first...then her own.  Better yet - get the rest of the family to meet moms
needs so she is better able to meet baby's needs.

Hey, maybe I should go on Oprah and be the new TV shrink for moms and
babies...it could happen...  ;)
