It seems like the pop psychology shows like to feature tough love. I don't know Dr Phil, but did you ever watch the Maury show? Seems like every episode they were doing boot camp for somebody, where they had actual drill sargeants yelling at them to shape up. Mostly it was 'troubled' youths getting the treatment. I think it taps into some deep frustration people have with relationships. If only there were a quick fix, some way to just bring in an expert and force people to behave how we want. Wouldn't that be nice?
