I was reading my email and all of a sudden my hubby switched TV channels and we only caught part of her interview. I don't even know what channel it was on, so I couldn't even check it on the web. I wasn't bashing Dr. Laura; I was simply responding to what I thought I heard.<BR/><BR/>I know there are women out there who do not treat their husbands right, just as there are men who take their wives for granted. It all comes down to communication, and their level of commitment to each other. If two partners don't respect each other enough to stay faithful, then why get married or even stay together?Kenzie Michaelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06160523410013966070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3242138268331645687.post-77093036820052436762008-03-12T07:40:00.000-07:002008-03-12T07:40:00.000-07:00"Commitment" also means being committed to your pa..."Commitment" also means being committed to your partner's needs.<BR/><BR/>Dr. Laura says that ***IF*** you choose a good man ***AND*** you treat him right, he will not stray. Nowhere does she excuse men for their decisions to commit adultery. However, she recognizes that if a wife isn't living by her marital vows (which are more than just "forsaking all others"), THEN a man is more likely not to live by his, either.<BR/><BR/>But if you want to believe that women have no power in their relationships, or no ability to a choose a decent man, then go ahead. It is easier to bash Dr. Laura than admit that some wives may not be treating their husbands right.<BR/><BR/>Maybe he did talk to his wife. Maybe her answer was "Tough - I don't feel like it. Want a divorce? I'll take half of everything you've ever earned and turn your daughters against you."<BR/><BR/>I do think cheating is wrong and should not be excused. But if the refrigerator is empty, a lot of men are going to hit the drive-thru.Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06136254628511801417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3242138268331645687.post-82996903197678527122008-03-12T05:50:00.000-07:002008-03-12T05:50:00.000-07:00amen sister.amen sister.Phoenixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14947952583116323744noreply@blogger.com
