Since I can't be bothered blogging about anything substantial, here's a relatively long comment I've left on Lucas' blog. It was in response to him, in simple terms, stating that Dr Phil is a bit of a generalising tool:

[...Never once had any reason to believe the crap that went on between my parents was my fault...at least, not directly.My mum claimed that she was only with my father for as long as she was because of my sister and I. In other words, it wasn't my fault that they broke up, but it was because steph and I existed that they stayed together. Made me feel rather bad about the state of things, not because there was anything I could have done, not because I had a crap childhood as a result, but because at that point, I realised that neither of those two should have had kids but did anyway, and I was one of them. I was about 10 years old when I came to this realisation.

How fun.

So, yeah, Dr Phil, explain to me why I don't plan on having kids.

Ever.

Heh, heh.

But seriously. I find it hard to take that guy seriously. He seems to place too much emphasis on how he says something to the point where I believe it's a technique he uses consciously to distract people from learning that what he does say isn't terribly profound. Oprah does the same thing. ]
