http://www.drphil.com/ See what's coming up on Dr. Phil this week! en webmaster@drphil.com http://drphil.com/shows/show/1850/ Summer, 17, says her mother, Susan, has been a “raging lunatic” for the past nine years, claiming Susan yells and curses, has stabbed paintings, mattresses and walls with knives and even physically attacked her husband, Summer’s father, Peter -- and her wrath has been documented in at least 60 home videos. Summer says the chaos in the home led to her becoming a promiscuous, out-of-control teenager who was using drugs by age 13. Although she has since cleaned up her life, Summer says she's now concerned for her 20-year-old sister, Amber, who has turned to drugs and alcohol -- she suspects for the same reasons: to escape their hostile family environment. Peter says his wife’s violent rages are often aimed at him. Find out why he says he refuses to leave, no matter what. Susan says her entire family has turned against her, and she has one foot out the door. What is at the root of her rage? Can Dr. Phil help her heal her fractured family?

Ashley says she’s desperate to reconcile with her sister, Aliciea, who has refused to speak to her and their mother, Terri, for the last three years. Ashley and Terri say the bad blood began when they refused to believe that Ashley’s husband, Josh, molested Aliciea’s then 6-year-old daughter. Why did Ashley continue to support Josh even after he confessed to the crime? And, where is Josh now? Then, Aliciea says she’s angry that her family “threw her daughter away like trash” when they backed Josh. Having vowed never to speak to them again, Aliciea reluctantly faces her mother and sister on Dr. Phil’s stage. Terri, who says she is in fragile health and believes she’s living on borrowed time, says it’s her dying wish to repair her relationship with Aliciea and see her grandchild. Can Dr. Phil help this family reconcile before it’s too late? Plus, Bishop T.D. Jakes, author of Let It Go: Forgive So You Can Be Forgiven, offers insight on the power of forgiveness.
