I have to say, watching this show makes me think I'm a pretty darn good mom, and my kids' behavior is fantastic (relatively speaking)! The 3 yo girl last night was unbelievable. The tantrums! I'm glad the father finally got the message (at least a little bit) that the parents have to work as a team. He, like so many of the fathers on this show, was constantly undermining the mom when she tried to discipline the kids.
Has anyone tried any of Jo Frost's techniques, like the naughty spot or the bedtime routine? Anyone actually written out a schedule for their family and posted it on the kitchen wall?
I'd love to see them broadcast follow ups with these families, about 6 months after the nanny's visit, to see if they stick to the "techniques" and if they really work.
