This is about a woman being the worst possible parent she can be. The scary thing is, I have a feeling that she didnt come up with this idea on her own. Im feel sad that someone probably said to her "have you tried giving him hot sauce and cold showers?!"
Sigh. That was hard to watch. Id actually watch that episode of Dr. Phil just to see what she had to say.

The sad fact is that she is not the worst possible parent she can be.

She's not selling her son as a prostitute to pedophiles.
She's not feeding him hallucinogens or depressants just to see what would happen.
She's not letting him starve to death while she plays FarmVille.
She's not throwing him through a wall (as someone else alluded to previously).
She's not doing any of a gajillion things that would make her a worse parent than what she displayed in this clip.

Is she a good parent? Not by any means.
While a cold shower might be an appropriate way of getting the attention of a stubborn child, having them hold hot sauce in their mouth for a full minute is not. That's abusive.


The goal of disciplining a child is twofold:
1 - To reinforce that there are consequences for a child's actions.
2 - To get the child to consider their actions and why they were wrong.

One offense was fighting over pencils. Does the hot sauce punishment accomplish #2? How about the cold shower?
I think we can agree that they accomplished #1, since the boy knew that was coming.

Another offense was the lie he told.
Now, one could argue that the hot sauce is a suitable punishment for the lie. It's twisted logic, as the burning feeling in his mouth is the consequence for using the same mouth to tell lies. I still don't find it appropriate, but I can at least understand the logic.

Bad parent? In my opinion, yes.
Worst parent ever? Not even close.

WTF are you assholes going off on a religious rant? This has nothing to do with religion...there are plenty of religious and non-religious nuts out there. Both sides have plenty of crazies.

uhh ya, that's not much for people to be crying over. Nothing physical, some mental punishment. Call me when the kid is screamed at and thrown threw drywall. He can join the club.

Side note, hot sauce is delicious.>> ^Gallowflak:

That was pretty weak. Hot sauce and a cold shower? Please, I'd have taken that any day. Y'all need to see some real child abuse before you accost this woman as the spawn of hell. She was in control of her actions and the consequences sounded like they were predetermined.
Here's a measure of rationality: you're siding with Dr. Phil.

Uh-huh.
Fuck you.

If Dr. Phil can get a show, this guy deserves a show.

“I have to engage, build a rapport, have a few laughs and close. It’s exhausting,” Paul says, heading out to pick up women. “I don’t see anything wrong with sleeping with girls whom I have no long-term interest in. I’m more selective about whom I have dinner with than whom I have sex with. On a good week, I’m probably having 10, 15 dates. I’ve slept with 130, 132 women. I’ve had sex in a New York City cab, and the guy reached back and touched her, so they’re getting their jollies off too. A lot of my game centers around not wasting financial resources. I don’t even take girls out. I meet them out on the street, and I invite them back to my place. If I’m attracted to her and the end game is to be physical, I want them in a controlled environment where I can escalate it into a sexual scenario." --Paul Jenka

Here's a soundboard of Dr.Phil...

I like the Judge Judy and Joe pesci ones myself. Anyway, I think I'm going to sidetrack my drunkin ass to playing a game

*sigh*

The reporter did a fairly good job of making them look like dewbs. And at the end, she basically summed it up with, "They like her because they like her, and really have no idea what the issues are." In that regard, why don't we elect Oprah or Dr. Phil? They're straight shooters that shoot from the hip and tell it like it is without lipstick.

I would but I am too busy making that food you asked me about.. oh i guess i did talk to today... well fuck you anyhow asshole.

I thought Steve Harvey was a comedian, not Dr. Phil. I only date men who are NOT religious! He lives in a shallow world, its sad.

Taking a good hard look at that guy... the face, the bald, the moustache...

I'm pretty sure that's Dr. Phil in makeup putting on a voice!

The trailer looked really lame, like some crappy soap opera that would come on after the Dr. Phil Show. If the critical consensus is overwhelming positive, I might eventually check it out on netflix. At the moment, I'm pretty much rooting for it to fail.

That monkey is Trailer Trash... too many dorritos while watching dr phil me thinks.
