Give this Man, his Emmy!

Dr. Phil McGraw may not be one of my favorite talk show hosts but I do respect him as a serious psychologist who does his best to help his guests and his audience as well. Regardless of how you feel about his mentor, Oprah Winfrey, Dr. Phil has come into his own with this show. He tries to reason and help families dealing with relationships and issues about trust and boundaries. Sometimes, I don't think we set our boundaries or think about trusting our family members. We do relate because we have all had relative abuse our trust and cross the boundaries. Some of his shows have in-laws in battle which can seem fiercer than actual war battles. Dr. Phil spends an hour giving us the television therapy we need in our lives if we choose to watch him. If not, watch something else instead but please, he deserves an Emmy for always performing consistently.
