Dr. Laura:
I am a liberal feminist and I love your show! I've listened for several years and you may be surprised to hear that I agree with most of your opinions. Even when I disagree with you, I understand your viewpoint. I admire how thoughtful and passionate you are even when my perspective is different from yours. Your advice has helped me a lot with my marriage and enhanced my ability to be nurturing and giving with my husband.
I grew up feeling proud of my intellect, independence, advanced education and career. After I got married and became a mother, I learned how to value other aspects of my personality. Now my roles of wife and mother come first, and you have helped me to be proud of that. My first priority is family, and I always keep that as a guiding principle in my life.
I love your advice to younger women, telling them not to settle and to have the courage to walk away from a bad relationship. I work on a college campus with millennials, and they aren't as bad as the media makes them out to be (don't worry - I only work while my child is in school). My students are respectful and open-minded, and they don't need "therapy goats" or "safe rooms" to cry in. They make me feel proud and hopeful for the future.
Thank you for helping me to be a better person. I really value your show, and your perspective on life and relationships. I hope you stay on-the-air for years to come!
Carey
