Thankful for My Army Sergeant Dad
11/05/2014


Good morning Dr. Laura. 

I love your directness. I grew up in a great two parent home and my Dad made sure with his directness, we were wise to the world even though we were raised in rural America. As a medical professional, RN and Respiratory Therapist, for 35 years, I've seen about everything people can do to wreck their lives. Most of it starts with stupidity and/or ignorance and just snowballs from there.

I thank you and my parents for telling it like it is. Women don't demand enough of themselves or their significant other as evidenced by settling for less than everything; i.e. marriage. I am forever grateful for my former Army Sergeant Dad telling it like it was and making sure his daughters knew what they had to say was just as important as what his son had to say. Today, my brother and two sisters have a great relationship and our Mom is right there with us. We lost our Dad in 2002. I will continue to listen to what you have to say to wake up people and attempt to get their lives straightened out. 

Thanks so much for all you do. 

Charlotte
