Dr. Laura:
You kept me focused years ago, while I drove an hour every night for three months to see my critically ill mother in the hospital. In addition to that stress, I was also going through infertility treatments. I replayed a thousand times in my mind what I heard you say on the radio: "Why have babies and turn them over for someone else to raise them?" Guiding and nurturing should solely be the parents' responsibility, especially in the early years.
I took that to heart when I finally got pregnant. Up to that point, I worked a full time job, plus another 20 hours at a part-time job that included weekends. At the end of the pregnancy, I considered keeping one or even both jobs, but remembered your teaching that there is no greater responsibility than raising your own children, so I made the right decision, thanks to you.
I quote you time and again to new parents. Thank you for really changing the course of my life.
