19 septembre 2006

Getting Physical Dr. Phil Staff "Ted and I have been married just over seven years and have two beautiful children," says Maria. When she and Ted were first married, Maria had a great relationship with her mother-in-law, Catherine, but that changed when their oldest daughter was born. "Catherine likes to disagree with us on almost every aspect of how we choose to raise our children, whether it's what they eat, when they nap, how long they nap for. My mother-in-law definitely feels that I'm not a proper wife and mother," Maria explains. "It's built a lot of tension. I've bit my tongue for a long time." Ted agrees that their relationship with his mother changed once their daughter was born. "Any decisions that involve my daughter, my mother would like to control," he says. Recently, the tension between Maria and Catherine escalated when they had a physical altercation. Maria was home with her daughters after just having had breast augmentation surgery, and Ted was away on business. Catherine came to the house to help Maria out. "Maria was complaining that Ted was having an affair. I walked in the kitchen and she said, 'He's been F-ing his girlfriend all week.' It really startled me, the language that she was using in front of the children," Catherine reveals. Maria says that Catherine started to scream. "She began yelling at me, saying that I didn't deserve Ted, I didn't deserve the children, and that she would do whatever she had to do to take my children from me," Maria explains. "Through the entire altercation, she was holding my 1-year-old daughter." Catherine says that Maria then shoved her and threw her down on the kitchen floor. "I said, 'Maria, what is wrong with you?' She told me that I was a piece of sh*t, I wasn't a good wife, a good person. I pushed her against the wall," she says. "She reached and dug her nails into my arm, puncturing my arm pretty severely. Blood started running. I was scared, I was nervous, b

Same-Sex Marriage: The Prop 8 Debate It’s a hot-button topic in California and around the country: The passage of Proposition 8, which reinstated a ban on same-sex marriage. Supporters of this initiative voted to preserve the sanctity of marriage solely between a man and a woman. Opponents of Prop 8 say it violates the constitutional rights of the gay community and that America’s laws should treat everyone equally. Since Election Day, numerous protests and rallies have been organized to overturn the law, and the debates are getting heated regarding this highly personal and controversial topic. Dr. Phil’s guests debate their opposing points of view: Discrimination attorney Gloria Allred, president of the Human Rights Campaign Joe Solmonese, San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom, Pastor Jim Garlow, president of National Organization of Marriage Maggie Gallagher and co-campaign manager for the Yes on 8 Campaign Jeff Flint.

Learn what the experts say you should do to prepare for a cross-cultural adoption and how to get through the adoption process the right way. Jayne says she had no idea the 2-year-old little girl she adopted from the Ukraine eight years ago, Mikhaela, was profoundly deaf and autistic. Jayne says the now 10-year-old has multiple behavioral disorders and kicks, bites, punches and tries to hurt herself daily, and is getting too strong for her to handle. Kristi says all the love in the world couldn’t help the daughter she adopted from China, who has been placed in out-of-home care in order to keep Kristi’s other children safe. Kristi says she wasn’t even close to being qualified to parent her now 14-year-old daughter, Tierney. Jodi says her adopted daughter’s destructive behavior almost drove her to complete insanity.

Dr. Phil speaks with an employment and labor attorney who says quiet quitting makes perfect sense, because if employers want employees to work extra, then they need to pay them extra. Then, hear from a young man who says he is currently quiet quitting. Why does he say he won't put in extra effort without being paid for it? Plus, business owners say quiet quitters are just a bunch of slackers, undependable employees hiding behind a cute hashtag to make lazy sound better.

Épisode 15 - Appropriation Nation: Has It Gone Too Far?

30 septembre 2022

Cultural appropriation, to many, means people with a privileged status taking cultural identity markers from members of a minority community without permission or acknowledgment. This can include language, art, music, literature, clothing, food, beauty standards/traditions, social norms, customs, and values. So, does that mean that a Caucasian person can’t own a Chinese restaurant? Can a Latina wear braids or locks? Should children never wear Halloween costumes that depict another culture, ethnicity or race? When does admiration turn into appropriation, and is the argument against appropriation just? Does the anti-appropriation movement ever turn into a form of racism? Meet a young woman who says she received death threats for wearing a dress from another culture, a woman who says she was called out for cosplaying a Japanese anime character, and a woman who says people need to stop stealing other cultures' foods and calling them their own.

3 octobre 2022

Dr. Phil sits down with Amy Hall, who explains how she and her husband, Allen, were blindsided when their 16-year-old son, Jed, vanished from their home in Idaho Falls, Idaho, in January 2018. Amy and Allen say they worked with the police and detectives to find Jed and finally accepted help from volunteers Jared Leisek and Doug Bishop from Adventure with Purpose, a search and recovery dive team who has helped to solve cold cases across the country. Dr. Phil sends a crew to Idaho Falls to follow the mystery of what happened to Jed. Then, retired law enforcement officer Frank Powell shares how regular citizens can help become volunteers to find missing people. And, past guest Mike Knabel, who along with his family has been searching for his daughter Andrea Knabel since she disappeared in August 2019, gives an update.

Épisode 17 - Life After Lockdown: Families in Crisis

4 octobre 2022

As Americans begin to emerge after two-and-a-half years of enduring the COVID-19 pandemic, the real toll of the decisions made by the government and politicians is starting to show in children, teens, and families across the nation. One mother says the closure of schools during the pandemic caused her daughter's behavior to wreak havoc in their home as she struggled with online distance learning. A couple claims financial hardships took a toll on their family and caused an even further divide in their parenting decisions and relationship. And, a college freshman says she felt completely unprepared for her first year of school. Psychiatrist Dr. Charles Sophy joins Dr. Phil to help these people reclaim their relationships with tools from his new book, Family Values: Reset Trust, Boundaries, and Connection With Your Child.

Épisode 18 - Has the Body Positivity Movement Gone Too Far? 

5 octobre 2022

Dr. Phil discusses the highly debated issue of whether or not the body positivity movement -- a belief system that embraces bodies of all shapes and sizes -- has gone too far. Since 2020, 36.5% of Americans have been considered overweight and 32.5% obese. Are we doing too much to celebrate the plus-sized? Not according to Lexi and her husband, Will, who say they've struggled with their body image their entire lives and have now found freedom in letting go of the need to control their weight and instead accepting themselves the way they are. Dr. Phil also meets YouTube personality John Glaude, who says he once believed in the body positivity movement until it almost killed him. Plus, Dr. Howard Liebowitz discusses the medical realities of being overweight, and nutritionist Kelsey Koehler offers tips to set practical goals for weight loss.

Épisode 19 - Workplace Bullying: Is It Happening to You?

6 octobre 2022

Dr. Phil discusses the highly debated issue of whether or not the body positivity movement -- a belief system that embraces bodies of all shapes and sizes -- has gone too far. Since 2020, 36.5% of Americans have been considered overweight and 32.5% obese. Are we doing too much to celebrate the plus-sized? Not according to Lexi and her husband, Will, who say they've struggled with their body image their entire lives and have now found freedom in letting go of the need to control their weight and instead accepting themselves the way they are.

Épisode 20 - Transgender Athletes

7 octobre 2022

Should transgender athletes be allowed to compete with those of the gender they identify with or must they only compete with athletes who share the gender they were assigned at birth? Are laws that ban transgender women from participating in women's sports fair? LGBTQ+ activists have described criteria limiting transgender athlete involvement in gendered sports as "discriminatory." Lia Thomas made headline news and stirred debate when she competed in swimming nationals as a transgender woman. Dr. Phil, along with Layne Ingram, a transgender man and basketball coach, and Olympic swimmer Nancy Hogshead-Makar, an advocate for girls and women in sports and CEO of Champion Women, discuss what they believe is right and fair. Then, Riley Gaines, who competed against Lia Thomas, gives her perspective on how she felt after their race. The big question is: what does the science say? Harvard professor Dr. Carole Hooven breaks it down.

Épisode 21 - You Can't Say That! (Part 1)

10 octobre 2022

Some believe self-censorship is a big problem today, particularly in light of the idea that someone can be "canceled" for their words -- blocked from having a prominent public platform or career for sharing their opinion. Dr. Phil interviews Nate, a former Idaho police officer, who claims he was fired after making a TikTok video about NBA superstar LeBron James that went viral and has been viewed over 4 million times. Nate explains how the fallout from the video affected him and his family, too. Dr. Phil also speaks with conservative political commentator Tomi Lahren, who says she recently had to be protected by state police from student protestors at the University of New Mexico. Greg Lukianoff, president of the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, says he believes Americans have lost the ability to discuss their differences rationally.

Épisode 22 - You Said It ... Now You're Canceled! (Part 2)

11 octobre 2022

The "self-censorship" debate continues. Meet Alejandro, a student who claims administrators at his community college violated his free speech rights. He says when he and members of the club Young Americans for Freedom posted flyers on campus, they were censored. Then, which public figures are fighting back against cancel culture? And, Dr. Phil takes a closer look at a list of terms that are now allegedly off limits. What words are on that list? Tune in to find out.

Épisode 23 - Harm Reduction: Safe Space for Addicts to Use

12 octobre 2022

Dr. Phil discusses harm reduction, the concept of treating drug abuse like a medical issue and providing addicts with paraphernalia, such as clean needles in a safe space, and free housing regardless of whether or not they test positive for drugs. Michael Shellenberger, author of “San Fransicko: Why Progressives Ruin Cities,” says he believes that America’s approach to drug abuse, crime, and homelessness has gotten too soft. Los Angeles resident Marcy Jo agrees and says open drug use and homelessness in L.A. have gotten out of control. On the other side of the debate is California State Senator Scott Wiener, who wrote Senate Bill 57. The bill would have legalized safe consumption sites in San Francisco, Oakland, Los Angeles and Los Angeles County, but was vetoed by Governor Newsom in August 2022. Weiner says he was extremely disappointed that the veto blocked life-saving legislation.

Épisode 24 - The Right to Die?

13 octobre 2022

In 2014, 29-year-old Brittany Maynard transformed the conversation about medical aid in dying, which allows a terminally ill patient with a prognosis of six months or less to live and is capable of making their own healthcare decisions, to self-administer prescribed medication to die with dignity. At the time, medical aid-in-dying was only authorized in four states, but today, it has been legalized in 10 states and Washington D.C. Additionally, many Americans are choosing to fly internationally to use medical aid-in-dying for non-terminal illnesses. With its growing popularity and more and more legislation being passed, Dr. Phil and his guests discuss dying on your own terms. With only one life, who says you can't control your end date? And, is it your right to die on your own terms?

Épisode 25 - Boomers vs. Zoomers: An Old-Age Debate

14 octobre 2022

As a whole, Baby Boomers, those born between 1946 -1964, believe they have worked hard, sacrificed, and paid their dues – and that the younger generation is entitled and sits on social media all day, expecting to get everything handed to them. However, Gen Z, those born between 1997 – 2012, blame Baby Boomers for the current state of the environment and the economy. Since 2019, the hashtag #okboomer has been used 3.7 B times on TikTok to describe a Baby Boomer being "out of touch." Is Gen Z really being coddled, whereas Boomers "pulled themselves up by their bootstraps"? And, how is that affecting their mental health? Dr. Phil discusses these generational differences -- societal values, work ethic, use of technology -- and if these two generations, 50 years apart, are really that different, after all.

Épisode 26 - Bullied to Death

17 octobre 2022

It used to be that if you were a child being bullied at school, once you walked over the threshold of your home, there would be a "reprieve" until you walked into school the next day. But times have changed. Teens, tweens, and those even younger are being bullied from every angle because, with the internet and the prevalence of social media, there are always ways to target a victim – oftentimes anonymously. And if a bullied teen does disconnect their devices, bullies can always use old-fashioned, in-person harassment. It seems there's no escape. Meet Antoinette, whose 13-year-old daughter, Muffin, took her own life after being bullied by children at her school. When not in school, Antoinette says they continued the bullying online, creating fake online pages and talking about Muffin's appearance. On the Saturday morning of Muffin's death, Antoinette went to the store only to return to every parent's worst nightmare.

Épisode 27 - In Just Five Days: Bullied to Death

18 octobre 2022

Bullying in 2022 comes in many forms, and the internet continues to be the most popular way to deliver this toxic and cruel behavior. Bullying is a severe threat to a child's self-esteem and mental health. Being targeted by a cyberbully can increase the risk of anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, feelings of worthlessness, and, most tragically, suicide. But not all bullying is long-term. In fact, the heavy psychological toll this kind of harassment takes can often be swift. Meet Cheryl and Hunter, whose 16-year-old daughter, McKenna, took her own life after being bullied by four girls she thought were her friends. They say that after less than five days of being bullied, McKenna could no longer cope and made the tragic decision to take her own life. The parents say their daughter went to shower on a Saturday evening, and they never saw her alive again.

Épisode 28 - Parents Battle over "Woke" School Curriculum

19 octobre 2022

In March 2022, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis passed the “Parents Rights in Education” law, preventing the discussion of sexuality or gender identity in kindergarten through third grades in Florida and requiring parents to be part of teacher and student meetings. Advocates say this law protects the rights of the parent. But critics nicknamed the law “Don’t Say Gay” and claim it turns back the clock on equality. Tiffany Justice and Tina Descovich, co-founders of Moms of Liberty, say every parent deserves a seat at the table to make sure that certain inappropriate content is not discussed. Candice Jackson, an attorney and mother who worked for the Department of Education under President Trump, says it’s our First Amendment right not to call someone by their preferred pronouns. However, Nadine Smith, executive director for Equality for Florida, says children need full transparency in their curriculum.

Épisode 29 - How to Survive Inflation: Smart Spending During Shortages

20 octobre 2022

The Points Guy, Brian Kelly, gives tips on how to travel, get cash back, and go on a dream vacation -- or have extra money to pay your bills -- by using points. Economist Dr. Victor Claar explains the shortages our country is facing and how we can make things a little easier at home.

Épisode 30 - Is American Too High on Marijuana?

21 octobre 2022

Marijuana, weed, pot, cannabis -- no matter what you call it -- it’s been hotly debated whether it’s safe to use or if legalization is doing more harm than good. The number of Americans using marijuana is at a record high, so it appears that using pot is getting a pass! But, many experts and concerned citizens insist marijuana is dangerous and that it should not be legal. Dr. Phil mediates a heated discussion between people on both sides of this issue, including retired police officer Major Neill Franklin, marijuana policy maker Karen O’Keefe, and dispensary insiders Bre and Char, who insist legalization is keeping children and communities safe. On the other side are anti-legalization activist Dr. Kevin Sabet, as well as ER physician Dr. Roneet Lev, who claims to see the effects of marijuana in her hospital every day. Plus, Laura Stack claims she lost her teenage son due to the legalization of marijuana.

Épisode 31 - Sextortion: It Could Be Happening to Your Child (Part 1)

24 octobre 2022

Sextortion, when someone blackmails you into providing them money, images of a sexual nature, or sexual favors by threatening to release your graphic information, videos, and/or pictures, is real and is not only happening to adults. College students and young kids from kindergarten to teens in high school are also becoming victims. Parents, this is a wake-up call because, in some of these cases, the results are fatal. Kaylee says she was a victim of sextortion from 12-16 years old. She says her sextortionists groomed her by pretending to be her friends online. Kaylee’s mother, Angela, says she only found out when the FBI showed up at her door when Kaylee was 19. Sierra, Kaylee’s best friend, says she was also groomed by the same men as Kaylee, but neither of them knew about the other until years later. Then, meet Carol whose 15-year-old daughter, Amanda, was sextorted and tragically took her own life.

Épisode 32 - Sextorted to Death (Part 2)

25 octobre 2022

Dr. Phil continues his conversation about “sextortion,” a serious crime that occurs when someone manipulates you into sending a compromising image and threatens to distribute your private and sensitive material if you don’t provide them more images, sexual favors, or money. These relentless and remorseless predators are targeting children as young as 5 years old, and it’s not only happening to girls; boys are also victims as well. Mary and Darren say their son, Riley, died by suicide after being sextorted when he was 15. Pauline says her 17-year-old son, Ryan, sent a perpetrator, who he thought was a girl his age, a photo, and that’s when the blackmailing began. Pauline says after only eight hours, Ryan tragically took his own life.

Épisode 33 - Right to Life, Right to Choose: The Conversation

26 octobre 2022

There is a raging national debate between people who are pro-life and those who are pro-choice. Nancy Davis is one of the women caught in the crossfire of the abortion debate since Roe v. Wade was overturned. Nancy says she was about 10 weeks pregnant when the fetus she was carrying was diagnosed with acrania, a fatal condition where the fetus’ skull does not form inside the womb. She claims she tried to have an abortion, but doctors denied her, saying she’d have to carry the baby to bury it because, in her home state of Louisiana, abortions are banned. Dr. Phil speaks with pro-choice advocate and President of the National Organization for Women, Christian Nunes, and Lila Rose, pro-life activist and president/founder of Live Action, a non-profit anti-abortion organization.

Épisode 34 - Dating App Horror Stories

27 octobre 2022

Looking for love on these apps can be addictive -- but it can also be very dangerous. There have been people scammed, sexually assaulted, and others who have had their life threatened after meeting people on these apps. When Jules moved to California, she says she decided to jump on a dating app figuring it would be the easiest way to meet people. However, she says one date, who appeared to be jealous, stole her keys and hid under her bed to spy on her. Holden says he went to his date’s father’s house to play video games but ended up waking up in a bathtub and barely making it out alive. Christine says after her divorce, she thought she met her Prince Charming on a dating app, but he ended up scamming her out of a lot of money. Kelly says she met a man at a bar for her first date, and before she could say bye, he grabbed her, threw her in his car, and sexually assaulted her.

Épisode 35 - Slut Shaming or Asking for Modesty?

28 octobre 2022

However, women who are choosing to wear the clothing in question claim they should have the freedom to wear what they want and shouldn’t be “slut shamed” or forced to censor their wardrobe. They claim women who have a problem with it are from an older generation with an even older sense of fashion and style. Nicole, a social media fashion influencer and wardrobe stylist, says showing more skin is all about female empowerment. Radio show host Andrea Kaye and Kent State University Associate Professor Dr. Suzy D’Enbeau weigh in, explaining why they disagree and believe dressing in a revealing way is not actually empowering to women at all. Plus, Dr. Phil meets Nicole, who claims she was denied entry at Disneyworld due to her outfit.

Dr. Phil tackles the teacher shortage, the "Great Resignation" of teachers, low student standards, teacher frustrations, and new laws in states like Arizona that put teachers with non-traditional backgrounds in classrooms.

Épisode 38 - Has "Sharenting" Gone Too Far? 

2 novembre 2022

Nowadays, parents post about their children on social media platforms more than ever. "Sharenting" is the term used to describe parents publicizing sensitive content or oversharing their children on the internet. Proponents feel sharing their family is an expression of parental pride and argue that critics take their posts out of context. Critics say oversharing is an invasion of children's privacy, dangerous, and harmful to the relationship between parent and child. Dr. Phil speaks with the Furrha family, a popular social media family with roughly 16 million followers, as well as experts and parents, to discuss online sharing and what parents should consider before posting.

4 novembre 2022

America is very divided -- wear a mask, don't wear a mask, get vaxxed, don't vax, fund the police, defund the police, inflation or deflation, the election was rigged, no it wasn't! And, now, it seems we are living in two different worlds, and a perfect storm is brewing. Is America ready for an intervention? People feel more angry, isolated, and victimized than at any time in recent history, and politicians seem to be using a war of words that just keep stoking the fire. America's best-known and most respected political strategist and pollster, Dr. Frank Luntz, joins Dr. Phil to show us the words to use and which to lose when it comes to having a conversation with someone who doesn't share your beliefs.

Épisode 41 - Caught on Camera: Have We Lost Our Privacy?

7 novembre 2022

Should someone be able to film you in public without your consent and post it online? Some say absolutely; everyone who behaves badly is fair game and sharing their behavior online is about accountability and justice. They don’t care about the repercussions the person may face after their behavior has been exposed. Others believe recording strangers in public is more about getting attention on social media and that even in public, people should have a semblance of privacy. Dr. Phil meets Jasmine, who claims she recorded and posted a video of a confrontation she had with an angry woman at a restaurant to get justice and force accountability. The woman in Jasmine’s video was identified online by a man known as ThatDaneshGuy, who says identifying people in these videos is a way to help people get justice -- but does it do more harm than good?

9 novembre 2022

Have you ever been told by a doctor that your symptoms are all in your head? When a doctor dismisses a patient's health concerns as nothing more than the product of their imagination, some call it medical gaslighting. Dr. Phil meets several women who claim doctors didn't take them seriously, which led to major health problems. Philecia was 29 when she says her life came crashing down after an undiagnosed lump turned into stage 4 breast cancer. Then, a woman says she saw 30 different doctors within five years for migraines before she finally got a diagnosis.
