Dr. Phil’s Advice To A Couple So Busy - They Didn’t Have Time To Plan Their Wedding

Back in 2002, Carol and Andrew said that between professional obligations and working toward blending their families, they were so busy that they didn’t have the time to plan their own wedding. “We’ve talked about just kind of going to the Justice of the Peace with our parents and our kids and say, ‘I do – I do’ and then, maybe later we can have a luau on the beach and just kind of relax,” said Andrew. Carol, who admitted she was trying to be “Super Mom,” said she would rather put herself aside to make sure everyone else was taken care of first. “You need to think everything through and challenge whether or not there is a rational basis for all this sacrifice that you’re doing,” Dr. Phil advised Carol. "You need to realize that you aren’t giving your children a gift by being a martyr instead of a mother.” This classic episode, “’Dr. Phil’: Living Beyond Your Means” airs Friday.
