Parents who make raising their kids a priority are my heroes. I wrote a best-selling book called “In Praise of Stay-at-Home Moms” to celebrate and to buoy the under-appreciated, little respected and even controversial parents - mostly moms - who make the important decision to be home full-time.

What’s a piece of advice I’ve given on-air that I’ve applied to my own life? Is it OK to remain friends when you know your “friend” wants something more? What’s a good way to respond when someone asks why you’ve never married or had kids? The questions were good at last week’s Dr. Laura LIVE event, and, in my never-to-be-humble opinion, so were the answers!

When it comes to the topic of abortion, I prefer to pontificate than debate. I also like to hear your thoughts. Which is why, after I read the following email on-air, I asked listeners to call in and share stories about being in a similar situation as this husband, who was forty when he wrote in for advice...  Call 1-800-DR-LAURA / 1-800-375-2872 or make an appointment at DrLaura.com Follow me on social media: Facebook.com/DrLaura Instagram.com/DrLauraProgram YouTube.com/DrLaura Join My Family!!

What’s Frontotemporal Degeneration? Also known as FTD, it is the most common form of dementia for adults under age 60. Unfortunately, my peep, Sue, knows all about FTD because she lost her husband to it. Sue and I along with the Director of Support and Education with the Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration spent an hour of the Dr. Laura Program discussing FTD and answering listener questions. This week’s Deep Dive is a replay of that important segment...

Men, close your eyes and picture yourself leaving Rapunzel up in her tower to cut off her own hair and use it as a rope to climb down to freedom. Could you do it? I know you’re born with a biological desire to rescue a damsel in distress. That’s natural and normal and even good in many cases. Guys want to fix and rescue. But the truth is that it’s not always possible.  Call 1-800-DR-LAURA / 1-800-375-2872 or make an appointment at DrLaura.com Follow me on social media: Facebook.com/DrLaura Instagram.com/DrLauraProgram YouTube.com/DrLaura Join My Family!!

It doesn’t matter if you’re a glass half-full or a glass half-empty person. You immediately get an image in your mind and understand what I’m trying to convey when I reference a glass and its state of fullness. Visualization is my favorite way to make a point. Especially when people are upset and getting catastrophic, visualization can quickly help put things into perspective.

Of all life’s many challenges, having a child with serious health or developmental issues is among the worst. Parents can be consumed with worry, fear and a sense of dread. On top of that, social beings naturally compare themselves to others… mothers are always gauging their own children’s successes or failures against the kids of friends and family. When your child is not able to grow and learn like others, it’s heartbreaking.

One of the biggest problems I've run across in recent years of taking calls on the Dr. Laura Program is of adult, married, (mostly) women who allow themselves to be emotionally drained by their demanding, needy, mentally unstable mothers, fathers, sisters, and brothers.

 Today’s Deep Dive is inspired by a special hour of the Dr. Laura program when I invited adult children to call in and talk about how their parents’ infidelity affected their family and their lives.  Call 1-800-DR-LAURA / 1-800-375-2872 or make an appointment at DrLaura.com Follow me on social media: Facebook.com/DrLaura Instagram.com/DrLauraProgram YouTube.com/DrLaura Join My Family!!

Why would a man risk losing his wife and his kids by having an affair? I devoted a whole hour of the Dr. Laura program talking to women who stayed with their husbands after discovering they had been unfaithful. And that prompted this special segment with men calling in to talk about why they had jeopardized marriage and family for sex on the side. I think you’ll find it enlightening… Call 1-800-DR-LAURA / 1-800-375-2872 or make an appointment at DrLaura.com Follow me on social media: Facebook.com/DrLaura Instagram.com/DrLauraProgram YouTube.com/DrLaura Join My Family!!

When a couple with young kids comes to me for help after an infidelity, I’m going to ask if it was a one-time thing or a pattern of behavior. It's also important to know HOW the affair ended. Did they stop just because they got caught? Did the other person do the dumping? Or did your spouse come to his or her senses? These details matter because, when children are involved, it’s not so simple to walk away. Your kids will suffer greatly. If we’re not talking about a gross pattern of behavior and if there is remorse and a sincere desire to repair the damage, I’m likely going to suggest you stay and try to work on the marriage.

I read an article recently that said the global wellness business has become a six trillion-dollar industry. From weighted blankets to mindful menopause retreats, there are endless products, services, supplements and medications to help relieve the stress of everyday life.

Do you believe you’re failing as a parent? Does it feel like you’ve lost control and your kids are using tantrums, tears and other strategies to run the show? The first thing you need to understand is that you cannot rationalize with a child. They’re selfish little creatures who want their immediate needs gratified. They are in their emotions and want what they want. And they’ll make a lot of noise while trying to get your attention or bend you to their will.  Call 1-800-DR-LAURA / 1-800-375-2872 or make an appointment at DrLaura.com Follow me on social media: Facebook.com/DrLaura Instagram.com/DrLauraProgram YouTube.com/DrLaura Join My Family!!

When I would travel the country for book signings, one of the most special combinations of people to arrive at my table would be mothers and daughters-in-law. It’s always so touching when two of the most important women in a man’s life actually like one another, and maybe even love each other. While it’s sadly not the norm, I’ve always believed that when a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law can open their hearts to receive the blessing of their relationship ...  Call 1-800-DR-LAURA / 1-800-375-2872 or make an appointment at DrLaura.com Follow me on social media: Facebook.com/DrLaura Instagram.com/DrLauraProgram YouTube.com/DrLaura Join My Family!!
