I recently started listening to you often via your podcast and the other day my four-year-old asked "Mommy, why do you like Dr. Laura so much?" I told him it helps me to learn how to be a better wife for his daddy and a better mommy for him. "Why?" he asked. I responded it was important to keep learning in life because Daddy deserves the best wife there is and he deserves the best mommy. He accepted that and went back to playing.
A few days later, when I turned your podcast on he ran up to me and said, "Mommy, can I listen to Dr. Laura with you?" And I was very surprised but said of course he could. He said, "Thanks, I want to learn how to be a good daddy so when I have kids I can be the best daddy there is." Now he asks me at least once a day if he can listen to Dr. Laura with me and he often comments and asks questions about the show. It's a great opening to a lot of difficult discussions that wouldn't otherwise come up in normal life.
Thanks for making me a better wife and mother to my two kind, compassionate and loving little boys.
