| Does Love Have
An Age Limit?
According to a recent poll, more than half of Larry
Elder viewers believe that age should not be a factor
in relationships. Today’s guests don’t
share that view – they believe that their
cherished family members are trapped in harmful
relationships with someone much older or younger.
Find out their stories below:
In the five years since 64-year-old Ethel and
39-year-old Doug got married, it’s been
a rocky road for her family. Though the couple
is very much in love, Doug says that the disapproval
of Sonya and Ethel’s other children has
driven a wedge into their happy relationship.

Clip: The constant fighting between Doug and
Sonya drives Ethel to the brink of tears. Guest expert Stacy Kaiser counseled the couple,
saying that the different life stages that Doug
and Ethel are in may add additional stress to
the family dissent. She also advised Sonya and
Doug to be respectful in each other’s presence
for Ethel’s sake.

Vivian and Nikki are worried about their 24-year-old
sister Raenada, who is on the verge of marrying
43-year-old Michael. Their main concern is that
Michael has children by three different women
and that he may not be an ideal father figure
for Raenada’s future children. One of Michael’s
kids is just two years younger than Raenada, but
she insists that it doesn’t bother her in
the least. Raenada has no plans to leave Michael’s
side but would like to move forward with her family’s
blessing. Larry offered to send the family to
dinner in hopes that they can get to know each
other better and start healthier interactions.
