I agree with you completely. In fact, as I listened it seemed that Dr. Phil was giving the mom much ammunition to continue with her mindset and prejudice. He said that as a Christian he respects her views, that some who are ex-gay were just confused and might not have been gay, that molestation can change a person, and on and on. I too noticed a lack of support for the daughter.

Dr. Phil really missed the mark on this one. The pain the daughter has experienced was so very evident. She has been verbally and emotionally abused by her mother since she played softball at the age of 11. It is now many years later and she has had a 10 year relationship with the love of her life, a woman she intends to marry. While Dr. Phil advises women in abusive relationships with men to get out of those relationships, he advises this young woman to stay in relationship with her mom. What that mother has done and continues to do erodes the very core of this young woman. Why is that not seen as the harmful abuse it is?

Please love your daughter as she is not what you want her to be.  If Jasmine has found true love you should accept it and be happy for her.  Our daugher was married for 9 years to a homosexual.  He married her to hide behind her; for his parents who never would have accepted him. He hid it well from all except our daughter.   It wasted her best years and I doubt she will ever trust another man.  When consulting adults choose a partner it should be no one else's business.  Religion makes me ill with all the rules that cause hate, unacceptance, and misery.  I don't understand homosexuality but respect those who are and do not judge them.  They are born not created.  I don't think GOD makes mistakes.

Thank you for understanding. Its not easy but i was brougt up to believe this way. And I know it to be true, thru the teachings of the bible and the teachings of Dr.Phil. And the biblre teaches its especially bad if men do it. After I was molested by my mother, god, its makes me so sick to think about it, she gave me a bath, cleaned me up, and put a clean diaper on me, all for her own perverterted satisfaction. She was so sick, I hate her so much! I reported her to CPS. And she was put in jail for 45 years And later in life, because of her, and what she put me thru, a 19 year old girl put her hands on me when I was only 17 and a half! I reportered her too to CPS, she is now also a regigistered sex offender and wont be allowed around children for 20 years. I thank gog for Dr. Phil so much, for showing how I am victimized by everyone sexually. I I love him and all of you for all your suppport. God Bless Dr. Phil, He is such a saint.

I am truly sorry that you do not understand the words of the Bible.  I wish they could be explained in simple terms that even you could comprehend but I believe that you see hate in everything around you and hateful eyes are blind to love.

I read the Bible every day and am blessed to see it as a book of love and acceptance.  I believe the words of the Apostle Paul when he says that the Laws of Leviticus were truly sins and that we are not to follow those laws.  If they were antiquated back then - in the words of Paul and of Jesus I agree that we have evolved past them.

I encourage you to get further into the Bible with some help if you can and read Galations where it will all be explained that we do not follow those rules or we will live a cursed life.  I hope you don't lead a cursed life and that you can find someone to help you understand that the Bible tells us that homosexuality was once considered a sin but is no more - just like hair cuts and farming. 

I fear that you are one of the Christians that try to define marriage for the rest of the world without understanding that marriage pre-dates Christianity and that you have no claim to define it for anyone.

Blessings in the name of Jesus.  I will pray for your soul.

Hi Dr. Phil, I've followed you since you were on Oprah and have never written before.  I was surprised that you did not more actively support Doreen as a lesbian.  I would have expected you to help her to see there is nothing wrong with her.  I fully agree that she needs therapy for her molestation, but it almost seemed like you were agreeing with her mother that therapy would "cure" her, which is not like you!  I reaiize it may take time for her mother to come to support her daughter, but I was surprised you did not tell Doreen that she fully deserves her mother's support.  I realize you told her mother she was wrong, but I get the sense Doreen would have left that show feeling less than supported for who she is.  I thought her relationship, which she has been in for 10 years, was treated with little regard.  I am a straight, married, Christian woman.  I am dismayed that in this day and age we continue to discrimate against lesbians and gays.

Diane did not state softball was the cause, please. Aftr her daughter was molested her mental state caused her to be easily influenced and a girl on one team did just that. And as a christian we do love our children unconditionally but not to the point of being silent when those we love are making poor choices that are harming them.

Amen and Amen

Wow, your comment is very disturbing as the reason why only male homosexuals get HIV Aids is that the anus is only one cell thick created only to expel waste and was never intended to have anything shoved in there. And men were created by God to lead, love and raise their families to serve God and one another and instead have chosen to mock their creator and demean their role as real men. And believe that no one will escape his judgement not even lesbians.

Thank u for taking the time and care to share the truth and facts about homosexuallity. There are so many ExHomosexuals yet they are being ignored in the hopes that if they claim they dont exist often enough society will believe it. There is so much information on our side out there but it is being hidden, ignored and misrepresented. I pray everyone here would have the love for society and the guts to really want to hear the truth. God Bless You!
