I'm not a fan of Dr. Phil either. Mostly, because like lots of other bad TV, he thrives on drama (anyone's drama) and even creates it when what's real isn't sufficient to fill the time slot.
What I see here as good is that, like Dr. Phil and other bad TV/media, the type of people who watch this programming are also the type of people who commit PAS. Cause they like drama. In my opinion, PAS and drama addiction should be listed in the DSM V. I guess drama addiction is too general a term, it probably falls under Psychosis.
Because you really have to .... ".... LOVE YOUR CHILDREN MORE THAN YOU HATE YOUR EX" (quote by Bessie Hudgins of Three Sides to Every Story) It's not only the alienated parent who suffers, it's grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. who aren't allowed to be a part of this child's life. But the child suffers the most damage from this behavior and they don't even know it.
For those of you who aren't sure of this anagram, it's Parental Alienation Syndrom (PAS). It's rampant in divorces. The only kudos I'll probably ever give to Dr. Phil is that he did a show about it.

It's much healthier for you and your children if you promote and encourage loving relationships.
Try it.
