Obsessive Mothers

Category: Parents and Parenting

I've seen several versions of this, but this one's the best in how it brings it up-to-date with a reference to TV shrink "Dr. Phil"....

Dr. Phil was conducting a group therapy session with four young mothers and their small children on his TV show. "You all have obsessions," he observed.

All denied being obsessed with anything. "You are -- all of you!" he insisted.

"You are obsessed with eating," he said to the first mother. "You've even named your daughter Candy."

He turned to the second mom. "Your obsession is with money: Again, it manifests itself in your child's name, Penny."

He turns to the third mom. "Your obsession is alcohol. This, too, manifests itself in your child's name, Brandy."

At this point the fourth mother gets up, takes her little boy by the hand and says, "Come on Dick, we're leaving."
