A Father Should Be Great
05/19/2016


Hi Dr. Laura,

I listen to you on Sirius XM on my way home from work every day, and on the weekends. I agree with almost everything you have to say and only wish I had listened to you years ago. 

The other day, your topic was about dads leaving their families and you absolutely have to hear an incredible and amazing song by Kelly Clarkson, called "Piece by Piece". The song is about Kelly's dad leaving family at a young age. She had tried to get him back into her life. He was not interested. Of course, she becomes famous and now he wants back into her life, but he hasn't earned the right to be in her life. 

When Kelly performed this on American Idol this past February, again, while 9 months pregnant, she had a hard time finishing the song, it was that emotional. Keith Urban one of the judges and Jennifer Lopez were in tears, as I was watching this incredible and emotional performance.

Click here to see this performance.

When Dads abandon their families, the hurt lingers for years to come. I truly hope that you can see this video, Dr. Laura. Thank you again for all that you do to help the callers and all of your listeners. You are truly making a difference.

Sincerely, 

Jill
