Yes, easy to resolve, just as you say.
Dr. Laura has no degree in mental health or psychology? Really? How did “Dr.” Laura come about?
Number 57 above says she is licensed in Family Therapy - probably a Masters Degree. She has a Doctorate in Physiology or something similar.
Dr laura has a ph.d. ( doctorate in physiology and a “certificate’ in family therapy ). She is not licensed in the state, and has never nor can she without a license ( which also requires so many hours of actual practice under supervision) pracitce psychotherapy of any kind. For that matter she is not allowed to refer to herself as a “therapist”..Calif statutes.
She has recently abandoned her Jewish religion.
She was estranged from her mother for 15 years...so much for her insistance on no matter what being a good daughter.she is also estranged from her sister...so much for family ties.
She touts women should stay at home with their kids, but when her son was a teenager she began a 5 day a week radio show.
she started dating her current husband when he was till married, lived with him for nine years and then finally got married...although she has that was ‘in the past’ it wasn’t that long ago!
Calling people who struggle with their life issues ‘pigs” ..:”sluts” and “stupid” ..so much for a compassionate ethical counseling. ( oh, yeah, she doesn’t counsel, she is just a therapist who just “gives her opinion”.)
I am not making judgements either. I actually like Dr. Laura although I certainly do not agree with all of her advice. I did see somewhere that they were checking with other soldiers that were on his buddy list, to verify whether the content was his or not. It wasn’t looking good for him. There were several other soldiers (buddies) that had included the same information from his myspace. I will try to find the link. I will also withhold judgement until it has been investigated.
I like her too, hopefully this is a hoax.
I hope it is not true, but that somehow it comes out that Laura did it and puts the final nail....so that her show is off the air forever. She is another embarrassing conservative. She talks about family values as she divorces her husband. I am sorry but I absolutely HATE hypocrites!!!!!!
I had not heard that....is she getting a divorce right now, from Deryk's dad?
She divorced his dad years ago. She is on number two or three already.
Anything except their own. For example the energy-intensive Al Gore household is "ok" because "he is doing so much good otherwise"
WOW! I had not heard that, I am very disappointed. I know you are not a big fan, but I always have been and had not heard that. Thanks for info.
Grisly Images on His MySpace Page Get Police Officer Suspended
Dr. Laura is on the air.
She has had two husbands. Her current husband is the father of her child.
She has just announced that she is "taking a break from her column."
God Bless Deryk and his family..may God keep him safe and return him home to his family.
What name does Deryk use? I would assume he uses his father’s name—Bishop. The alleged myspace page is listed under his mother’s name—Schlesinger.
Deryk uses his mother’s last name. I have heard her mention several times that they agreed to give him her last name because the father already has several chilren with his last name and Dr. Laura wanted her family name to be carried on.
