Summary

Extra 1 - Quotes on family and marriage.The reason so many Americans feel lost and unhappy, explains Dr. Schlessinger, is that we have abandoned the high road and indulged in the feel-good pop psychology of the last decade. Mistaking fun for happiness, we have set ourselves up for "short-term thrills and long-term agony.""How could you do that?!" she asks. In this wise and witty book, she topples the lame excuses we try to make when we do the wrong thing. Americans know what the right thing to do is, she asserts. We just try to take the easy way out. In seven chapters, she challenges us to find our Character, Conscience, Courage, Self-respect, Morals, Integrity and Principles by discussing such issues as love versus lust, irresponsible parenting and the mindless pursuit of happiness at the expense of others. Her message is simple: If we discipline ourselves and accept responsibility for our actions, we will ultimately enjoy a life of richer quality and greater satisfaction. Written in her unmistakably lively and outspoken style, How Could You Do That?! is a refreshing, and sometimes tough argument for the need for values and character. "Get a grip," says Dr. Laura, "it's time to grow up."

Reader reviews for How Could You Do That?!

From the publisher

In her hard-hitting new book, How Could You Do That?!, Dr. Laura Schlessinger, author of Ten Stupid Things Woman Do to Mess Up Their Lives, delivers a witty, wise, and workable moral philosophy -- based on the principle of personal responsiblity.

With a lively, pull-no-punches style, Dr. Laura takes on the moral dilemmas of our time, from the mindless pursuits of pleasure and immediate gratification to taking the easy way out when those actions produce ugly or uncomfortable life-altering consequences. She demonstrates in no uncertain terms that personal values are never someone else's responsibility, but our own, and why choosing not to honor them actually compounds unhappiness. Finally, she explains that by disciplining self-indulgence and rising above temptation we can discover that infinite pleasure, the true happiness, of the moral high ground.

Prominently featuring Dr. Laura's spirited and profound moral debates with callers on her top-rated internationally syndicated radio program, How Could You Do That?! is not only a compelling argument for an ethical approach to life but an invaluable inspiration to rebuilding conscience, character, and courage, providing that good leads to feeling great. Here is an audio that can make genuine different in the quality of our own lives and the lives of those we love.
