"Human Barbie Gives Her 7- year-old Daughter a Liposuction Voucher."
Thursday, January 5, 2012
KFWB NewsTalk Radio 980 (Los Angeles)-throughout the afternoon

Dr. Sheri talks to Maggie McKay @ KFWB News about what the UK mother-- obsessed with plastic surgery-- gave her 7-year-old daughter for Christmas. Try a £7,000 voucher for liposuction. The holiday gift was a follow-up to the daughter's most recent birthday present from her mum: A £6,000 voucher for breast augmentation. The 7 year old can't wait until she's old enough to have (fake) big boobs like her mom. Excuse the rant but... Is this scary or what? I look at the rise of shows on TV like "Toddlers and Tiaras" and shudder. Have we gone too far? Is this a dangerous mirror of how far askew our age-bending ideas of beauty and sexuality have come? What happened to the good ole days of preserving and giving our children a safe vacumn and time of innocence?

Tiger Woods and other celebrities who have been caught having affairs are unfortunately just a mirror for a growing problem that is becoming a behavioral pandemic that threatens the emotional health and well being of millions of men, women and their relationships. ABC asks Dr. Sheri why do men cheat? (Although it's not just men, the statistics for women having affairs has ballooned too). Here are just a few simple reasons why men cheat:

1. Because I can. 2. It's the thrill. 3. Spend a lot of time away from home. 4. It's just sex, not love so it's not cheating. 5. Change in sex life and attention at home. 6. Ego boost. 7. It's biological, men are wired to spread their seed. 8. Not thinking about the consequences until it's too late.

The reasons why men (and women) cheat are much more complex than the list implies. For more info on this topic, please watch:

"Cancer and Divorce: Why divorce is far more common when the wife is the patient"

Tuesday, November 10, 2009 @ 11pm

CBS News Channel 2 (Los Angeles)

Here's a depressing piece of information. According to a study that examined the role gender played in so-called "partner abandonment", a woman is six times more likely to be separated or divorced soon after a diagnosis of cancer or multiple sclerosis than if a man in the relationship is the patient. The study also found that the longer the marriage the more likely it would remain intact. I believe that the better the marriage is to start with, the better the chances are that the relationship will survive and the love grow even stronger. If a relationship is shaky, a stresser like this can throw it over the edge. When disease hits, it's important to remember that the marriage needs attention, as well as the disease itself. If you find yourself in the caregiver role, it's important that you also GET support as well as give it.

Dr Sheri talks with EXTRA about the likelihood of adults who are 'unhealed' survivors of abuse perpetuating the cycle of abuse in adulthood and what needs to be done to heal.

FYI: There are three stages of recovery for adult survivors: remembering, mourning, and healing. To break the cycle of abuse- ingrained patterning, a survivor must first work through their memories of abuse and recognize that they were wronged as children. Second, grieve for the childhood they lost, mourn the fact that loved ones failed and betrayed them. Third,take an inventory of the current problem areas in their lives and dedicate themselves to working on controlling their anger and finding healthy outlets for any aggressive or self-destructive feelings they may still feel.
