(Original Air Date: 10/01/12) In this real-life War of the Roses, Dr. Phil speaks to Laura and Ross, a once-happily married couple, who say that although they’ve been divorced for years, they both refuse to leave their home, which at times has resembled a war zone. Ross says his 10-year marriage to Laura started to crumble when she began pursuing younger men. He says Laura became a sex-obsessed party girl who chose the “cougar” lifestyle over her marriage, and he says she should leave. Laura says she likes to hang out with younger men, but denies being a sex-obsessed party girl. She says her marriage simply fell apart and argues that the house is as much hers as it is Ross’ and he should be the one to leave. Both admit that living under one roof has taken its toll, and that their arguments have gotten physical. Laura says she believes Ross is trying to kill her and that she had to be hospitalized after she claims he drugged her. Ross says Laura gets so heated she once stabbed him with a pen during an argument. Dr. Phil speaks to their 17-year-old daughter, Kayla. Hear how she says her toxic home life has affected her. Plus, learn what you must know if you’re going through a divorce with children.

Laura is so inappropriate and her behavior is selfish! She is not a good role model for anyone behaving like a teenager and posting such inappropriate photos and acting like astupid teenager! She should grow up and not be selfish and a liar! She is panicking about getting older and behaving like an idiot! She has kids and should be sensible and not teach them to be sexually promiscuous as she is behaving! She is getting older and is not attractive because to be attractive you have to be a good person! Her selfismess shines through her horrible demeonor!
Omg! Laura, grow up and get some morals!

She is an unattractive woman who cheated on her husband and is a liar. I feel bad for her daughter who looks at her mom as a role model. smh

The women needs to walk away with their daughter and be happy. He has been through enough with everything he had to deal with besides his family falling apart. The women needs to go on with her life and let go of the husband. He really needs to push the issue to get her out of the house for good. She has everything she wanted from the divorce except the house? This women doesn't have a cluse what she really has. I think they both need to find a way to work this house deal out ad move on. It's not healthy what they are doing now to the entire family.

The show was a bit confusing. I think everyone was to blame at least to some extent. But at the end of the show, Dr Phil made a comment that was ridiculious. He said "I would rather be emotionally sound with my daughter living in a box under a bridge rather then have my daughter deal with an emotional rollercoaster in a house with a roof." I understand why he made this comment. He was emphasizing the importance of proper parenting. However, There is no crime for your children to deal with emotional rollercoaster. However, it is a crime to have my children live under a bridge. An emotional rollercoaster is immoral but not criminal and it's not as bad as living under bridge. Living under a bridge in harsh weather conditions can cause frost bite, colds, diseases and death. Not to mention your more prone to physical and sexual assaults ny strangers. Also living under a bridge, child protective services would get involved. Overall, Dr. Phils comment should not have been said.

I'm on the husbands side. the wife just seems like a liar & it makes me wonder why the wife can't get a job and just move out of the damn house.

Why are you still there. You said you read the book & now is all hunky, dory. You need to get the heck out. You've got to think of the kids & get the heck out. This has gone on too long & you have convinced yourself that it is better but it is not. He is teaching your son to be just like him. Quit fooling yourself.

My ex and I tried staying in the same home, I moved into my youngest daughters bedroom and he stayed in the master bedroom (we moved our 2 daughters in together). Within a week of moving he broke into my room and raped me. He didn't care that the children were on the same floor of the home when this happened, I did. Soon after that I made him move out and in the meanwhile slept with my girls.

I am astounded at the dinamics of this couple..............how disgusting..........
She - a cougar
He - an embezzler and control freak
She: This woman is not allowed to speak for herself because he won't let her. Every time and I mean every time she tried to speak he cut her off, afraid likely that she would make him look bad, when the whole show was him making her look bad..........Whether she is a cougar or not is not relevant. Her daughter is the most importand person in her life. Not her furniture or her clothes. She stated in 2008 he would not allow her to remove her furniture or her clothes. Yet, in 2010 after the divorce she was allowed to remove what she wanted. Yet, she is still there............why?????? Maybe she wants the publicity to sell her calendars or to earn money on her website. You know Mrs. Dirty divorcee................you need to pack whatever you can get into your car along with your daughter and remove yourself from this situation. Ifyou have enough money to run to bars and go out for dinner then you have enough to leave with. I lived with one of these controlling men and after many years of accusations and abuse, none of what I did - I finally left him. I borrowed my rent from my parents (he controlled the money too) and left with my 3 children. No money just bare furniture (all you have to leave him is a bed, a knife, a fork, a spoon and a loaf of bread) to survive. GET OUT and GET OUT NOW...................I did not turn back. I had no job but found one, cleaning houses........I went back to college and earned a degree. It seems to me you are only focusing on your "cute" body..........you make me sick............
He: Full of himself and pictures of his great tan and muscels..........a known criminal. An embezzler of public funds...Yes, your money and my money for his own personal gain. Nice house right? I bet he used to drive a real smart vehicle too. Did he fool around on his wife, you bet he did. That is why he wouldn't let her finish her sentences.....he is a pig........and more than once I would bet. He needs to let his wife and daughter move out. The daughter may love him but right now she certainly does not respect him, at all. Thus the first thing she said when Dr. Phil sat in front of her was that her father did this crime and I don't know why. So mr. dad........start working on helping your daughter respect you- it may work, although I doubt it. What an embarassment you are to her. Imagine the fun her friends and fellow students made of your nasty criminal activity. Guess who is paying for that Mr. Dirty Divorce, yes your daughter.........Quit playing her against your wife and grow up. You Mr. D. D. are losing the publics support while you wine and cry about your poor life. I am sure the judge will watch this and give you the time that you so rightly deserve. Then what will you do about your wife and her activties?
