‘Abysmal’ : Dr. Brothers’ Family Shuns Her Advice
NEW YORK — The husband of radio psychologist Joyce Brothers says his wife’s advice to her own family members is so “abysmal” that they do not ask her opinion, it was reported today.
Milton Brothers also said in an interview with Family Weekly that his wife is considering going into politics.
“She is still a young woman from a political point of view,” Brothers said. “It would, of course, have to be something low level at first. She’d be very happy to have a seat in the House of Representatives.”
Joyce Brothers recently published a book entitled “What Every Woman Ought to Know About Love and Marriage.”
But her husband said that “with her family, she’s abysmal. She totally loses her objectivity.
“When it comes to giving advice to her daughter or her grandson, she is not the right person and people in this family do not seek out her opinion, because she cannot be objective. She is too emotionally involved to give the right advice,” he said.
