He just plays a minister on TV, it seems

Dobson's milieu is radio, not TV.

His calling has been to minister to the American family.

Dobson has lived scandal-free for many years. He's a good man.

I know a young man who would disagree with you. He was raised, for his first 6 years, by the principles laid out in Dobson's book. He still has scars on his back.

After 6 years, he ended up in a hospital, and his father ended up in prison. He was taken in by an excellent foster family, and is now a very fine young man.

I'm sure Dobson did not mean for that to happen to this boy, but it did. I guess his father got carried away by giving the boy "something to cry about."

Do I blame Dobson? I do. Do I consider that a scandal? I do.

The boy is not alone, either. Dobson is not blameless in this regard. Jesus did not say, "Suffer, little children." He said, "Suffer the little children to come unto me."

You are welcome to think anything you wish about James Dobson. I have my own opinion.
