I seriously doubt that. He did not expect the question at the time and was struggling to pull out the appropriate response in the situation. Then being aware of not answering the question in a timely manner, he becomes stressed out and it's difficult for him to think clear and gather his thoughts, why he starts drumming with his hands and covering his face. Then asking himself the question to give himself a lead to follow.

Lots of pedophiles blame the victim. It's not deflection either, some really believe it. Dr. Phil had a guy on once who said the 3-year-old he molested "knew what she was doing" when, according to him, she seduced him. A 3-year-old. He was mad at the girl for getting him in this trouble. Unbelievable.

What in the fuck.

That came out of fucking nowhere. You saw him glaring with rage at the grandpa during and after the question of whether he molested Parker and you thought you knew exactly what was going through his mind.

Then it turns out he was probably just furiously jealous that his father in law got with his wife before he did.

Probably because of statute of limitations and lack of evidence

HAL9000000 ยท 21 points ยท Posted at 15:52:17 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

He admitted that he put his penis inside his infant daughter. Sure, it was probably 40 years earlier but there's no lack of evidence for that, even if he denies everything else. If there is a statute of limitations, there shouldn't be one at least when the perpetrator literally admits it.

Cizuz ยท 43 points ยท Posted at 16:08:34 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

Statute of limitations exists for a reason. It might not be perfect but it causes less harm then more harm.

For example people are horrendous at remembering things and very notorious for fabricated memories and implanted memories. This is real, no one is free from it. You yourself have memories that never happened or never happened the way you say they did.

This is also why eye witness testimony is horrible and shouldn't be trusted in a court of law.

A good example was during the pedophile priest scandal. Even though it was a very low minority, parents got very scarred and kept asking their kids about their priest. This ended up implanting doubt, kids see it on TV or the news as well and an influx of people come out to confess their pastor or priest molested them. Sometimes 10 years after the fact. People are acused, scorned, life ruined.

But then evidence shows they didn't. Dates given prove the kid wasn't even at church or with the priest or even attending church at that day. No physical evidence exists. Other things show it didn't happen.

Hell even sometimes someone being accused will take a plea deal, because they fear the worse outcome even if they know they did nothing.

Hell some people might even be convinced or convince themselves they did something.

Yet they didn't. The memories are real. For all purposes that kid believes they were molested when they weren't. So they are really suffering.

In the end, this is real science and one of the reasons eye witness testimony is garbage and Statute of limitations exists.

Not saying this is the case but this guy could be a victim where she believe she molested her and hates him, to the point he eventually doubts himself. Maybe I was drunk? Maybe I did? To the point the memory becomes real for the both of them even if it didn't happen.

I believe he probably did. But memories suck, and easily manipulated.

So he DID molest his own kid, or was that never proven? As much as I would like to lynch him for child molestation, a witch-hunt is wrong and you must assume innocence until guilt is proven in a court of law.

The child porn charge is going to haunt his ass for the rest of his life, if he survives prison gen-pop.

EDIT: God damn, if it was proven that he DID molest his kid then he isn't innocent anymore. All I was saying is that assuming someone is guilty of all related crimes because they are proven guilty of only one is wrong.

Not saying she was lying as he was convicted of having CP, but kids can lie, and be manipulated to lie. The fact that they dont understand the consequences of it is what makes it worse, IMO. So to say that "oh a little girl said this, why would she lie about it" is kind of bullshit. The movie The Hunt, starring Mads Mikkelsen is a good insight into this line of thinking.

That coaching thing is what the majority of the drama dealing with the Woody Allen scandal was about. Both sides has different accounts of who said what, how Dylan said these things. Even the judge in the court seemed highly biased. They didn't try him despite supposedly having "probable cause," which even Allen himself said was bullshit. He even got the clear to adopt two more kids a few years later.

Kids around 2-3 have no real filter and say weird shit. Not saying this is the case, but they can come up with the craziest stories often involving people in their lives. My cousin came home from preschool and told her mom that they all get baths in the back room after playing outside.

You, in America, judge those laws objectively in an attempt to take as much social construct out of the equation as possible and look at only the ethical ones. Ethics are a social structure by definition in a way, but they're differentiated and definitely not synonymous.

I forgot the saying, but it's something like, "Don't look at the law as a moral compass". The law is just what's helps create a stable society that's free from abuse of power (ideally), while providing security. However, ethics, morals, any of that, isn't derived from law. For instance, murder is wrong, but we still go to war. Smoking weed isn't bad, yet it's still illegal, gays should get married, but only recently can, etc...

Laws are definitely a reflection of our morals, but a poor reflection.

True and 8% is a lot to be judging if a person is a child molester or not.

I watched the whole series and the only other things of note is that he tried to get out of taking the lie detector test by volunteering for work on the day he had to take it and the examiner said the guy tried to use counter measures to beat the test.

I think a lot of people don't know this, but that is often the real value if the lie detector test - how they act about it. Even if you don't even look at the results, you can tell a lot. After you take it, they might say "we looked at the results... Anything you want to clarify?" A person who is lying will backtrack and try to qualify answers to the questions they were lying about.

IrrationalDesign ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 20:10:58 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

I believe this. It's not a scientific test (or at least not factually determinate like science normally is), used to see if a person is lying. I'd say his behaviour around it is as telling (if not more so) to a behaviour specialist as his results are to a detector specialist. Behaviour is data that can be analysed, and more importantly, usually isn't corrupted by the person (because he's focussing on influencing the lie detector test results).

psuedopseudo ยท 0 points ยท Posted at 20:15:48 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)*

Exactly. Someone who thinks they are caught lying will retract or try to compromise (like the guy in this video who said, oh, I guess she might have tried to lick cake off of my face, but that's all). There's a scene in the 1999 version of The Winslow Boy where the lawyer they want to hire accuses the kid of several lesser offenses and small misdoings, and he takes the case when the kid still denies all of them, reasoning that he probably really is innocent since a guilty person would offer some middle-ground confessions to fake forthrightness. It's kind of like that.

This effect is even better than results saying the subject lied. Those results are inconclusive, but an admission (even to a lesser transgression) is straight from the subject's mouth. They can then realize the person is trying to beat the test and lie to them.

I should clarify. I'm not saying their nervousness is the giveaway (because that's the problem with the lie detector test itself). So it's not about how they act when confronted as much as what they say. So if someone says "oh, yeah I know why it read that way" and gives some convoluted answers, it's a lot more indicative of a lie than "that's weird, but the test is wrong." Or they might say, "fine, I stole money, but it was only five dollars not everything in the wallet!"

To be sure, it's still not always reliable, but it sometimes is much more effective than the actual test.

That's not true at all.. Your level of nervousness becomes a baseline. You will not fail every single test if you're very nervous. Also, nervousness can be differentiated from the neurological signals of defensiveness when lying

You should know that even the inventor of the lie detector later expressed how wrong the machine is and even regretted making it. Literally going on to call it "a Frankenstein monster".

All it does is check vitals, sweat, nervousness. Doesn't mean someone passed or failed the test. There have been tons of people that have passed it with flying colors and were later convicted of killings.

There's not. All a lie detector test does is measure your body's physical response to a question. A person who is nervous as fuck will have basically the same physical reaction as someone who is lying. It's also why people who are able to keep themselves calm and have more control over their bodies are able to beat the test.

Well yeah, that's why lie detectors are shit.

If you know how to stay calm, keep a steady pace of heart and not sweat too much, you won't be detected. Even if you say you murdered Hitler and wore his skull as a crown.

On the other hand, if you ARE nervous as they're even preparing you for the questioning, you will fail when asked about being Hitler's personal butler and personally murdering a million Jews.

TDuncker ยท 0 points ยท Posted at 15:23:24 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

There is more to it. Operators can be trained to more or less see what is a person being directly nervous and indirectly(e.g. you getting nervous by the situation, not the question). Though, this is not 100% without fault.

Also, now that you're talking about blood pressure; one of the chief doctors of my town's hospital was teaching blood pressure to us.

He said, that there's occasionally also problems with doctors getting their own blood pressure measured, as they know exactly what's bad and not, so they become more nervous than the average non-doctor over the potential result.

I used to get allergy shots every month a while ago for 5 years.

My BP would go up by at least 20-30 just because it was being measured in a different setting before an injection. At home I have perfect tests, and when I have Doppler tests I also do well. Hell, I even have high blood pressure when a regular doctor checks it during a normal visit.

Meanwhile, sociopaths (or was it psychopaths? I think psychopaths) are incapable of feeling emotions like these, so they won't show any changes in blood pressure or sweating even if questioned about 70 people they murdered (it has happened in the past).

Never mind that sociopath mass murderers have passed the lie detector tests before.

I like how the last link compares this to ancient methods of checking if someone's mouth went dry during questioning. If it did, he was lying!

Frankly, it's not much more scientific. It's still testing only your body's reactions - reactions that can be suppressed by medicine or training. Grab some beta-blockers and you will pass every lie detection test. Also you won't have blood pressure issues for the next few hours.

People who think lie detectors do.

You assume that it's impossible for lie detectors to have extremely high chance of a false positive.

And that one false positive makes it less likely to give false positives for other answers. It's not the case.

If anything, if one answer given is a false positive, that makes the whole process even less reliable. Two false positives means someone is fucking up, and three false positives would mean you can throw the shit out because there's absolutely no reason to trust this thing in the first place.

All of what I wrote is completely useless anyway, since lie detectors don't even detect lies. They detect changes in physiology. Which can happen for a dozen different reasons, giving a false positive, or not change at all giving a false negative.

I'm not sure that this is accurate that lie detector tests are useless. I think the problem is that they are not 100% accurate. So even if there is 92% accuracy, that 8% makes them worthless in a court because of the chance of a false reading. Unless the test is essentially a truth test, that small doubt we have of the results is enough to not be able to constitutionally allow the results to count.

To think about it another way, lie detector tests are more accurate than human intuition is about whether someone is lying, but otherwise not accurate enough to tell us the truth for sure.

Lie detectors are pseudoscience garbage and are generally not admissable in court. The polygraph analyzer knows how to ask questions in such a way to make people pass or fail the test. The test giver is deceptive in their attempts to divine an answer for the prosecution, which is the point of lying anyway (to deceive). So it's quite ironic that the "Lie detectors" are administered by people trying to deceive the court system.

There is nothing objective nor scientifically observable about some county clerk with a certification in pseudoscience.

You're premise is wrong though. The lie detector test can't detect if someone is lying. So, with regards to the polygraph training he provided, he never trained people to get away with lying or deceiving the courts. He was training them on how to outwit a county clerk with a certification in pseudoscience.

He isn't the first person to go prison over silly charges because he pissed off someone in the federal government. America has a long history of putting people in prison like this with silly laws such as the Espionage and Sedition Acts.

To say that a large and powerful government can pass amorale laws and use them against their people would be more accurate. There are a lot of laws that people can be busted on if investigated enough. A person could fill out a form incorrectly and bam, interstate mail fraud, hopefully they enjoy the food at Federal Prison. It comes down to if the prosecution, judge and investigators want to spend the resources on putting someone away, and in this case, that guy was bad for business-- so the answer was yes. They even stated to wanting to put him in prison for protesting the polygraph.

Just to be clear not all child porn is forcible or statutory rape and not all of it includes children suffering. The problem with the word child porn is it includes everything from nude or lewdly posed images, all the way to child rape. When you hear someone being arrested for child porn, it could be anything from 1 image of a 17 year old girl in a downloaded collection of thousands of photos, or an extensive collection of rape videos.

"Teen Porn" is one of the top porn searches, along with MILF porn and big boobs or whatever. It pulls up millions of search results on Google, all of them legal. The girls can sometimes be portrayed as 13-year-olds, letting common fantasies be seen.

"Child porn" is NOT remotely close to those desires. Yes, technically a 17-year-old is underage porn, but that's not really what the idea of illegal "child porn" is. At all. These are children who have been coerced or forced to do sexual things or be naked on camera by their parents, gaurdians, caretakers or kidnapper.

If the police search your computer and find a naked sixteen year old in your pictures... I doubt they'd bat an eye. Four year old? You're under arrest immediately.

If you scoured the deep web for naked underage teens then you're looking for trouble, but the random underrage girl in all the videos you've seen (and I garuntee you've unknowingly watched one on a legal porn site) isn't going to make the cops come knocking at your door.

No they absolutely do. In fact, a man was arrested for having photos of a LEGAL girl, because she "looked underage".

Digging around in Google I found this, from right around the time Jeremy went on that show:

Published 6:05pm Tuesday, October 31, 2006

By By ANDY HAMILTON / Niles Daily Star

NILES โ€“ The family of a 3-year-old Berrien Springs girl is protesting the decision of a Berrien County judge to allow her father unsupervised visits.

According to a press release from family members of Kaylee Park, the group was marching Thursday, Oct. 26 in front of the South Berrien County Courthouse in Niles in response to a ruling handed down two days before by Judge Mabel Johnson Mayfield.

The press release stated that, under recommendations by Child Protective Services and the Friend of the Court, Mayfield ruled against supervised visits for Kaylee's father, Jeremy Park, and informed Kaylee's mother, Krista Mehl of Berrien Springs, that if her daughter was not turned over to her father at appointed visitation times, Krista would be sent to jail for 15 days.

Kaylee's second cousin, Crystal Hunter, stated in the press release the family alleges Jeremy has repeatedly sexually abused Kaylee. Hunter added Kaylee has accused her father of sexually molesting her, "particularly during her court-ordered visitations with him." Calls made to the Berrien County Friend of the Court were not immediately returned.

gross

irssildur ยท -65 points ยท Posted at 15:01:36 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

In some culture giving a kiss on the lips of the child, sibling, best friend etc. isn't gross. For me, it's gross. For me it's normal to give kiss on the cheek to my parents, to my siblings, to my (female) friends (sometimes male friends as well, but that's a bit gross, I try to avoid if I can). For some cultures it's too much. It's gross (almost got slapped by a female friend because of this, she said it's too intimate in their culture).

I'm not trying to defend him (as in the above comments they stated that his intentions weren't clean). But you have to see, that kissing your relatives/friends has a large variety, and I can imagine, that tongue kiss in some culture doesn't have any sexuality, just a pure indication of love.

Oh, i thought we were talking about the tongue action from the video. I don't feel a closed mouth kiss is sexual between a kid and their parents.

Yep, that's the cultural difference. For me, kissing on the lips is something I would do with my girlfriend when we meet, etc. but not with my siblings / kids.

irssildur ยท -8 points ยท Posted at 18:22:37 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

Kissing on the lips would be seen as molesting for a lots of people tho. That's all what I'm saying. Cultures are different. What is gross for you maybe not gross for me. What is gross for me, might be gross for other people. Although kissing a child with tongues is unacceptable for me, kissing on the lips is less, but still unacceptable, we need to see that there are people out there who doesn't see kissing on the lips gross, or sexual (in my opinion it's clearly sexual). So, as I stated in my first comment, I don't try to defend the guy, he is clearly a pedo, but we must be aware that kissing the child / friend / parent has a variety across the cultures, so the tongue kiss might not indicate sexual drive. Unlikely, but please, try to understand what I'm trying to say.

Of course there are exceptions, but that doesn't mean that I'm wrong or that it's not reliable. It just means that it's different for you.

There's some pretty basic telltale signs to figure out if someone is lying, and this guy is the poster child for just about all of them.

Bwandon ยท 12 points ยท Posted at 19:31:11 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

Not really though. All of these so called 'telltale signs' are often done by people who are just simply nervous. The fact is that a given person already believes the other is innocent or guilty prior to asking questions, and a lot of people use your logic with a heavy amount of confirmation bias. It has no place in law.

kidbackstab ยท 0 points ยท Posted at 21:18:27 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

And you're using your own logic to have just as much confirmation bias because you don't believe it.

I'm not saying it has any place in law. And there are plenty of people who are magnificent liars. But that doesn't mean that you can't tell when people are lying. Nervousness and lying are cousins, sure. But they're not the same thing. And just like with anything else, if you spend enough time with both you can learn to tell them apart.

We have whole professions and studies and sciences behind telling if someone is lying. If it was as easy as saying "Nah, he's just nervous.", then we wouldn't have needed those things in the first place.

So, yes you're right that they look similar and that some people react differently. But that doesn't mean that I'm wrong.

Bwandon ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 21:29:24 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

You were asserting that you could read these 'telltale' signs to reliably spot liars. I don't wholly disagree with everything you've said, but i think it can be dangerous to assume these particular behaviours are significantly more likely to be displayed when lying than other circumstances.

My point was not to wave off everything as 'he's just nervous'. My point is that the 'studies and sciences' surrounding deception are somewhat inconclusive, and there is no foolproof way of detecting this deception. Until then it is not really appropriate to decide that you yourself have a great system of spotting liars...especially when those liars are based around serious issues like the child molesting in this video. Making the wrong assumptions in these cases can ruin lives, we need to be careful.

kidbackstab ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 22:42:38 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

I'm saying that with knowledge of what to look for when someone is lying, there is greater chances that you can tell if a person is lying or not.

I never said that it's a reliable system, I just implied that there is at least A system. And I agree that it's not something that's foolproof and that it can, and I've no doubt has ruined people's lives. But if you're saying that just because it's not 100%, that we shouldn't use it is naive. We use the information given to us, and hope for the best.

Look, I think that with enough awareness and training, you can spot a liar within a certain degree of reasonability. If you don't, that's fine. But that doesn't make either of us wrong.

Bwandon ยท 1 points ยท Posted at 23:06:31 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

Well, yes, actually I agree with you mostly. I think we can accurately use that system in our social environments. I mean we do this naturally, just through how we read the body language of the other.

My issue was with generalising these little telltale signs to serious accusations, or using it as evidence. I thought that's what you were asserting based on the nature of this video, but I see now that isn't your viewpoint.

Liars talk waaaay too much.

Not everyone who talks to much is a liar. You have a sound point, but it's not a valid one. Same reason for trying to declare that anyone who breaks eye contact while talking is a liar. There is no certainty either way if someone is doing either or both.

Some people are good at lying and know all the "tricks" you can think of. Mostly speaking with conviction, maintain eye contact using confrontational body langauge (appearing to come near you when they speak to make it sound like they are not lying, whereas most people who suck at lying will shrink up and take up less space). In fact, sometimes when people abruptly appear to have a lot of conviction, that is an indication that they are lying.

The single best way to determine if someone is lying is context. Did they recently change their body language and tone greatly, without a clear need to be that emotional. Dr Phil is a good liar for example, he uses his concerns about not having any "Pre Judgements" to lure the guy into saying incriminating shit. He obviously has pre-judgements, else why would he bring someone onto the show to ask them if he raped their own kid. What, was this just normal screening...?

I'm not saying he's not guilty, but there's nothing conclusive at all that he is lying. Plenty of people are awkward when put in front of a camera. You may as well be saying that you don't trust his face, or that he gives you bad vibes, so he's definitely guilty.

Not necessairly true at all. For example I am the worst liar (these days) but even I know that if you keep your lies short and move on you be good to go. A lot of people lie like that along with emphatic denial.

Though, I keep rambling when we have dead air though. (Which is a well-known negotiation/debate tactic)

I don't go out of my way to watch Dr. Phil. I don't consider myself to be part of his audience. I don't find him to be as intelligent as he makes himself out to be. It doesn't matter if he previously told the crew beforehand they were shooting, or if it was staged or not. The perception he is creating is still at the expense of that man he yells at, as a power play. There are better examples of showing power than yelling "out" to your crew. I worked in production for a few years on television, so I have a bias.

They were probably acting about the entire situation in order to create a spontaneous atmosphere while also creating dramatic tension.

I doubt they were dressing the set or working on lighting with the cameras prepared and on. I'm not sure how set cameras work, but I get the feeling that they still have to be turned on, moved, and set up by a crew, even if they don't have to be present while the cameras are running.

It's all for the audience.

RealRealGood ยท 7 points ยท Posted at 15:45:00 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

A crew member does say at the beginning they were setting up for the second show. Talk shows sometimes film multiple episodes or parts of episodes in one day, and Dr. Phil occasionally does interviews in that tiny room or similar for certain guests that wouldn't be appropriate to have in front of a full audience. Like a recent episode where he interviewed one of Jared Fogel's victims.

That being said the beginning of this clip does seem a little forced and staged. Nice dramatic tension though.

Tangent: Is NLP still all about how to attempt to control people in social settings without them being aware of it? Do they still categorize target people as "dogs," or "sheep," and themselves as "wolves?"

I knew a group of NLP devotees. Their dances with mind-games and attempts to control others' behavior was as obvious as it was immoral. They wanted to believe that they had these keys to the kingdom of social power that they alone knew how to use. And since they were the chosen educated few, it was their privilege to fuck with people and persuade them, preferably without the targets' knowledge.

Borderline cultists and sociopaths.

echisholm ยท 4 points ยท Posted at 20:44:45 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

Honest NLP practice isn't about controlling other people via hard-wired mechanisms. Instead, its just another tool in a therapist's Toolbox, like behavior modification therapy, to help zero in on areas the patient might not be honest about, even to themselves. There's plenty of opportunities for abuse and misapplication, but ethical use of the techniques can be helpful in overcoming strong psychological blocks and bring about emotional breakthroughs.

Man, that sounds like some Mystery Method shit there at best, and some abusive sociopathic exploitation at worst. It's therapeutic, similar to how subconscious suggestion is also therapeutic in nature. Both have possibility to be used to exploit people, and anyone who teaches means to exploit others with any kind of psychological methodology is highly unethical and should be ignored at the least.

For a good, positive overview of NLP, I'd recommend reading Frogs to Princes by Richard Bandler and John Grinder; I'm pretty sure you can download it for free.

But he says he has to replay everything in his head. His shitty doublespeak doesn't really make him look innocent. What a despicable fuckwad. "You're being falsely accused?" Long pause.

"Do you think you have good judgement?"

"Good judgement? Uhh... I'd say that's difficult to answer."

Obviously you don't then hahaha

"Dr. Phil, to be very honest with you, the only thing that I can tell you, is there is one crime I've committed: I love my daughter."

If you were innocent, you would never phrase a sentence in this way.

I guess I'm the only person who doesn't think he is obviously lying. Is he lying? Maybe, but I didn't see anything that makes him guilty. An acquaintance of mine was accused of the same thing by his baby mommas, momma (his would be mother-in-law if the two had stayed together). For two years he was in and out of court and looking guilty-ish, but nobody knew for sure because it was so unlike him. All of a sudden, the mom moved to settle it through mediation and there the issue died. Another year goes by and the ex admits that she stopped the whole thing because she found out her mother made it up. I know this is not the normal circumstance, because most people would never make something like this up and also that 99.9% of cases are very serious. However, many people assumed this guy was lying. Even I though he was guilty. The woman who made the accusation was a prominent figure in our city, which led to her credibility even more. Are people saying that if his daughter did have a yeast infection due to neglect, and he 'checked' in a totally 'medical' way, that this is wrong? I see a guy that is trying to choose his words carefully, but whether that is due to lying or just fear from being accused is not clear.

I'm not trying to argue with anybody or under-play the seriousness of child abuse. I'm also not saying this guy is innocent. I'm simply saying that you cannot make an accusation or assumption based on this video... What if another video surfaced of the mother and it turns out she is bat shit crazy??? What has the daughter/victim said regarding the accusation (probably most important)? If this had any real merit, why are police and child services not involved? Does anybody know more about the case from an unbiased source?

AGAIN, I am not interested in arguing about whether child abuse/molestation is a horrible thing. Of course it is. I'm interested in actual facts about this case, not Dr. Phil and his bullshit sensationalism and leading interviews.

I read the thread and saw he took a lie detector. This doesn't mean anything, I have personally taken the poly twice for jobs, typical questions about drugs and theft. Both times I passed and both times I lied about not taking drugs.

What your saying may ring true, but he has been in and out of jail the last five years for possessing child pornography.

Ah-ha! If that is fact, then it's no wonder people think he is lying. He should be in jail. But "in and out"? If he was convicted on child porn, why isn't he in jail? Child porn cases are usually open and shut because when you get caught, you get caught red handed. And what has happened with these charges (abuse)?

Not that I watch Dr. Phil, but there was another part to this guy's story where he took a lie detector test and failed. A lie detector test given by an ex-FBI guy who looks like a human version of Same the Eagle the Muppet. Super serious.

Then he went on to deny the results, despite the fact that his daughter constantly says "daddy touched my pee-pee" after every visit.

I can't put my finger on it, but this guy is either a narcissist, or BPD. Something's up.

Isn't it inappropriate though for PhD's to asked to be called "doctor" outside of an academic setting? At least that's what I've always heard

Well the reason he lost his title as a doctor was because it was believed he was exploiting his title by doing the tv-shows and selling the weight-loss products. That doesn't make him NOT a doctor (In psychology), it just means that he legally doesn't have that title any more. Is he still a psychologist? Yes he is.

marithefrancois ยท 10 points ยท Posted at 12:04:23 on November 22, 2015 ยท (Permalink)

Apparently he used to be a practicing psychologist, so he is allowed to possess the title.

Why did you put "doctor" in quotes? He is a doctor.

He has a Ph.D. in psychology. However, he is not a licensed psychologist.

Having a PhD makes someone a doctor. Therefore, he's a doctor.

No, I am a girl and I have had one. They don't make the exterior red, but they can be different for everyone I guess.

EDIT: I looked it up and I guess there's swelling and stuff too, but I've never had that, legitimately didn't know it was a thing. Wow.
