Why Have Them If You Won’t Raise Them?
How would your baby rate your job performance if she could? Of all the things we can give our children, attention is what they most need and want. Children deserve to be put first. They are not supposed to be fit in around their mommy’s and daddy’s more important schedules. Call 1-800-DR-LAURA / 1-800-375-2872 or make an appointment at DrLaura.com

The Father Factor - The Importance of Dads in Children’s Lives
It takes a man to turn a boy into a man. And a dad to show his daughter what she should be looking for in a future husband. That’s why I’m constantly nagging you to choose wisely before getting married… to pick a man who will be a good husband and who’ll also be a good father.

Dr. Laura LIVE at SiriusXM Los Angeles Studios
Have you come to one of my live stage performances? I’ve done many over the years, but the ones at the SiriusXM studios in Los Angeles have been among the most special. The theater is tiny, which means I’m up close and personal with those who attend. Lily meanders through the audience and picks certain laps to sit on.

The Benefits of a “Between Now and Dead” Mindset
Any given day on my SiriusXM radio program, you’re likely to hear me ask a caller, “Is this how you want your life to go ‘between now and dead?’” It’s probably my favorite “Dr. Laura-ism” because it really puts life into perspective, don’t you think?
