Description

Oprah is opening the vault of The Oprah Winfrey Show with 25 years of hand-picked legendary interviews, a-ha moments, ugly cries and unforgettable surprises. A lot has changed since she ended the show, but many of our personal struggles have stayed the same. We’re all still looking to connect, to be seen and to know that we’re not alone. We’re also looking for some joy, some laughs and some much-needed inspiration. As we head into this new decade, what better time to look back and reflect, to take stock of how we’ve grown and to be reminded that we’re all in this together. The Oprah Winfrey Show aired from September 8th, 1986 to May 25, 2011 with 4,561 episodes. The show remains the highest-rated daytime talk show in American television history, averaging between 10 to 20 million viewers a day.

Not to hurt anyone's feelings, but I felt this was not a helpful episode. The author made it seem that she thought God was teaching one of the women a lesson by sending her two disabled children. It's true that she has learned lessons from that, but what an egocentric way to look at it--as if disabling children is something a loving God would do just because a mother needs to learn a lesson. We are each the center of our own universe, but part of maturing is realizing that we AREN'T the center of THE universe. Everything does not happen for our benefit, nor for our detriment. We can learn from it all, and that might be a gift, but I don't believe that is the REASON.

I would be angry, too.He could have walked out the front door.Every human has a thought such as that. Every human is capable of this.Every human also has a choice.He waited till he was alone with any of his children. Its always funny how they never try to kill themselves.In the end, every human has a choice not to murder their own children , just because they had a thought....

I cant finish this episode. The first set of parents have not answered one question at face value, without having to give a preface to each answer. If you are innocent , just answer the damn question already.....and the wife with her: um, um, um.........But the part where they saw the window open, " oh we realized then that it was. a possibility that she was taken."....WTF

some of the stuff Oprah says is like....why ask that? "why are you welling up? because you feel bad about soliciting children" she doesnt ask she tells.. and most of it is obvious. yes Oprah he feels bad he was involved in the rape of other children....shocker
