Chynna & Mackenzie Phillips on Oprah

Would you like to be at the Phillips family Christmas dinner this year?

If I were Michelle, I would be in denial too! Wake up, Michelle! It probably did happen. Accept it and get over it...IT DIDN'T HAPPEN TO YOU!

Michelle, you are the reason many girls DON'T come forward...because there is always some stupid woman in the family who wants to stick their head in the sand and pretend like their man couldn't possibly be such a perv! WAKE UP! Why don't you support the women in your family at a time like this? Women are their own worst enemies about this stuff!

I wouldn't want to be at that dinner because it's a private discussion within the family at this point...but I do appreciate Mackensie coming forward for other women and Chynna supporting her. If more women supported each other about tough subjects like this, maybe the abuse perpetrated by men would stop or at least decrease. I am ashamed of Michelle. I have put myself in her shoes as I have stepkids and I would be and am supportive of my kids and my stepkids, even about difficult subjects. GROW UP, MICHELLE! I am embarrassed of Michelle's response. She gives stepmothers a bad name!
