"My Beauty Queen Baby Girl Has Gone Ballistic"

(May 8, 2014)

Stephanie says she wants to know how her daughter, Ashley, went from a picture-perfect, straight-A student and beauty pageant queen to an out-of-control, violent 16-year-old who has her fearing for her life. Dr. Phil intervenes in this mother/daughter conflict. How can they get back on track? This program contains strong language. Viewer discretion advised.

Out-of-Control Teen

Stephanie says her daughter, Ashley, went from a picture-perfect, straight-A student and beauty pageant queen to an out-of-control, violent 16-year-old who has her fearing for her life. She says Ashley stole her car at 12, started dating an 18-year-old when she was just 13, was caught shoplifting, and started abusing drugs and alcohol. Stephanie says when Ashley doesn’t get her way, she becomes violent — breaking lamps, punching holes in doors and kicking out car windshields with her feet — and has even threatened to kill her. Stephanie says she recently found a gun in Ashley’s car and fears her daughter could actually follow through with the threat.

Ashley’s Side

Ashley says growing up, she may have been a pageant queen, but life inside her home was anything but royal, and her mother is the problem.

“When I was growing up, my mom and dad did not get along at all,” she says. “I saw my dad hit my mom quite often. I was scared. My mom, she had a black eye when pregnant with me. It makes me feel like he didn’t want me to be here. My dad went to jail and rehab. He was on drugs the whole time I was growing up. My dad has been diagnosed as bipolar. I think I may be bipolar. I get so mad at the simplest things. My mom drives me crazy. Whenever she leaves for work in morning, she texts me nonstop. If I leave the house, she literally texts my phone a thousand times. My mom and I have gotten physical. I never punched her in the face or anything. It was, like, in the arm. It wasn’t as hard as I could hit her; it was just trying to get my point across. She would threaten me with the cops. She threatens me with juvie all the time. She said that she found a gun in my car, but it was my old boyfriend’s gun. She just made a huge deal out of it. I know how to use a gun, but I didn’t plan on using it. She says I need help, but she needs help too.”

Ashley joins her mother onstage with Dr. Phil. She says she’s doing fine, except for her relationship with Stephanie. “She pushes me to my limits. She knows exactly what to do to make me mad,” she says. Ashley says her mother’s constant texting is an example.

Dr. Phil offers an opportunity for Stephanie to send Ashley to Center for Discovery, a structured, therapeutic residential treatment center that works with troubled teens. “She is a troubled, out-of-control teenager. If you go home, she is not going to go to school. She is not going to get an education. She is going to take up with anybody that will have her. She is going to wind up 17, pregnant, and you’re going to be raising the child while she’s going out and partying. That’s where you’re headed, unless you have the backbone to say, ‘This stops here. This stops now.’”
