   Sadly, men can be like that in general, because in the heat of a fight,   
   we forget our responsibility to be compassionate to our lover and strike   
   out.  Women also, because it's just human nature.

   That's clear enough.  I think that they may have frigidized her by   
   making her start work too young.  She was singing professionally, with   
   the family bnd, well before they started the tv show, when she was 16.   
   She was the littlest one, and all the boys except Donnie were pretty   
   well grown by that time

   I thought that's what she did.  Wasn't her departing hubby a doctor or a   
   lawyer.  Both, incidentally, can be pretty cold types.   
      
   > and settle down and lighten up   
      
   She definitely needs to lighten up, but with eight kids and an   
   infatuated public, that's not so easy.  Valium will do it, but we all   
   know the pitfalls of that.  ;(

   Maybe the closest thing she ever had to a sister.
