A few days ago, you took my call. I had wondered what to do about my foster mother's photo I had posted on facebook, because it infuriated my "Dad" as I called him. You told me to give up the fantasy because he is NOT my father. He is a sperm donor. You told me to honor my foster mother, even on "Father's Day"...

I have listened to you for years, even though I haven't always followed your advice. I shacked up, had a child out of marriage and did everything I could to prove I didn't need a man. I was used to being Ms. Independent and didn't want to need him. We had some issues and I found it easier to move back to my family rather than keep the door open to him, as he wasn't completely committed to being a family man...

How happy I was when I headed out in the car and the first thing I heard was you talking about homeschooling. My son is currently in public school and ever since he started I wished I had been homeschooling him although I have always thought I would not have the patience...

Just a quick note to thank you and let you know how you have affected my life. I am my kids' Mom.  I have been stepping for 15 years. I am also FINALLY my husband's girlfriend. After we were together for two years (children were 7 and nine), his ex wife took her own life. My husband and I were engaged at that time, due to be married in a couple of months. I postponed our wedding; the kids had way too much to deal with...

Two years ago was a very dark time in our marriage which I try now to push out of my head. I don't care to re-live all the details of that time (I've done enough all ready) In short, my husband was having an affair and I was faced with a decision...

I thought I'd write you a quick note to let you know about my own experience with abortion. My husband and I have been married for 11 years.  We have three kids, a 2 yr old, a 5 yr old and an...11 year old...

I loved your answer the caller Ashley when she was so worried about "fireworks" to tell her when to get married. I'd tell her "fireworks, shmireworks". I thank God every single day that I let go of that absurd notion and married my husband, who I now actually feel "fireworks" for more each day we are married!...
