Dr. Phil had a very good point about "psychics" who pray on the suffering and weak.  It is very true that scams abound with people wanting an easy buck, regardless of who their hurt in the process.  I would simply like to emphasize that there ARE true mediums, and there are many.  Many do charge for their services, so you have to be careful that you are not simply projecting your desire for answers onto the person you pay.  True mediums understand that people are skeptical and wary - most will meet and talk with you sans pay until you are comfortable.  Most mediums, however, aren't in the lime light - they lead ordinary lives and often help out the local police stations.  I have a very good family friend who is retired patrol and can attest to the numerous times that his station utilized the skills of psychics. 

My point, mediums are real people with special gifts.  They aren't gypsy witches or any such rubish, but ordinary people leading ordinary lives often just trying to help people out when they can.

But beware of the scammers.

these people are very annoying it is like they only watched the first 2 minutes of the show and then make these opinions and then tell dr phil he is "way off" and his advise is "mumbo jumbo" and then they get on they stage and you cant even tell what their point is! Its like did you even watch the show?  Like the sex therapist tell him his opinion is wrong but hers is right? or the lady sitting at home yelling at the tv telling the wife she should dump her cheating dr husband, oh that is much better than trying to work somthing out, the wife did not go there for advise on breaking up her family she was trying to save her marriage I know things look more black and white when you are sitting at home watching it on tv and opinions are very easy to give when it has nothing to do with your own life but these people should have a concrete helpful opinion on these topics instead of aruging over how dr phill worded statements or advise he gave. I mean if I was going to to debate dr Phill for pete's sake I think I would make sure I had a firm leg to stand on first instead of debating his choice of wording or that he didnt tell someone to dump her husband l  I think dr phil always has completly educated, researched, and good advise, I just think some of the people that debate him sometimes are not paying attention to what is really going on and dont see the whole picture. You go Dr Phil I think you give great advise and help to everyone that is on your show
