Danielle had to quit her job to take care of Skyler when daycare refused to take her back. Danielle's grandma, Gigi, also lives with them, but she's taken to hiding in her room to avoid her great-granddaughter's screaming. Mom struggles to get the children up in the morning, by 8:00 a.m., Danielle's drained but has to spend the rest of her day chasing Skyler. By the time Dad gets home, an exhausted Danielle needs help, but Dad refuses to discipline his "little princess" when she acts out, and is harsh with his sensitive son.
Webb Family (2005)
Arthur and Cathy Webb are a dual-career couple who are juggling the demands of work, children and, most of all, sleep. They have three children - Josef, 6, Paige, 5 -- who has Down Syndrome -- and Madison, 2-1/2. With Dad away all week for his job as a management consultant, Mom is left to handle the three children alone. She has no structure to the evenings, rarely eats with the kids, and finds each night draining. Mom feels so guilty about leaving daughter Madison with a babysitter during the day that she allows the toddler to cling to her constantly. She cooks and cleans with one hand, holding Madison the entire time. Because of Paige's Down Syndrome, Josef refuses to play with her and calls her names. Bedtime is a joke. Often, Mom falls asleep before the kids, around midnight, and the kids all sleep in Mom's bed. Dad spends the entire weekend either sleeping or running nonstop errands, considering the latter his "family time." Mom is at her wits' end and wants Supernanny's help.
McMillion Family (2005)
Cheryl McMillion is struggling to raise her three children on her own, while her husband, Jonathan, a National Guardsman, is serving his tour of duty in Afghanistan. However, while Dad is overseas, there's a battle to keep the peace on the homefront, as the boys -- Ryan, nine, Hunter, seven, and Garrett, three -- act out by fighting and yelling. Mom's had it with the aggression in her family, and turns to Supernanny for help.
Larmer Family (2005)
Jo Frost visits Judy and Ed Larmer to address the destructive, out-of-control behavior of their four children -- John (4), twins Jessica (2 1/2) and Justin (2 1/2), and Joey (11 months). However, it isn't long before Jo realizes that it's the parents' constant fighting and bickering with each other that is the source of the family unrest.
Cooke Family (U.K. Family) (2005)
American viewers are treated to Jo Frost's trials with a British family, Paul and Denise Cooke and their daughters, Meghann (9), Gabriella (6) and Erin (4). The girls are bright and creative, but arguments with their parents regularly turn into shouting matches. Meghann in particular bosses her family around, terrorizes her sisters and can erupt at the drop of a hat. Her relationship with Denise is very stressful, and the family rarely ventures out in public together for fear of an embarrassing scene.
