As someone who,at age 5, lost her father to death in the middle of the Great Depression I don't know about that.
We were poor and it was tough,really tough,for my mother.
My divorce impacted my kids far less than the death of my father impacted my mother,sister,and I.
Dr Laura sometimes gets carried away with her opinions----there are too many variables to consider.
Dr. Laura.
