I totally agree.. she makes me so mad sometimes because she doesn't seem to take into consideration that these people are calling her because they are hurting.. I've heard her make a young woman cry on the air because she said she was stupid (or a similar word) because she wanted to marry some guy that her kid old didn't like. Now I agree with Dr. Laura's statement that she needed to take her childs opinion to heart, but the woman was obviously distraught and Dr. Laura just lit into her. When it comes to the topic of divorce, it always seemed to me that unless her callers played out their divorce EXACTLY the same way she did, they were doing it wrong, and for someone who is supposed to be a specialist in human psychology I thought that was pretty narrow minded.

I do agree with some of her advice, but I think she could be a bit nicer sometimes.
