The Vintons (2009)
Tearaway teenagers Brittani and Ivan's wayward behavior is driving their moms to despair. In a bid to get them back on track, the two teens will leave their respective homes for a week, to live under the roof - and rules - of a strict Southern Californian family. Lisa and Scott Vinton have strong opinions about how teenagers should behave. No smoking, no piercings and no privacy. Their household is based on chores, rules and consequences. But will this rigid regime change Brittani and Ivan - two headstrong teenagers who are used to doing what they want, when they want - for the better?
The Hatchers (2009)
The hardworking Hatcher family play host to hedonistic teenagers Reed and Jessica. Neither of these indulged teens is used to doing anything for themselves - but all that's about to change as they spend a week with the no-nonsense Hatchers. The teens will have to get their hands dirty working from dawn till dusk at the family's Tennessee dairy and veterinary clinic - and they'll have to adjust to a new way of life where everyone is required to contribute.
The McCuins (2009)
Wild teenagers Ricky and Katie have partied their way out of their parents' control. In an attempt to tame them, they're being packed off to live in the McCuin family's strict, deeply religious, Tennessee household. Dad Steve is head pastor at the local church and he prides himself on his ability to change people. Mom Angie runs a tight ship at home - she always knows where her kids are, what they're doing, and doesn't let a single slip up go unpunished. During their week in the household, the "new" teens are expected to follow a regimented routine based on faith, family and physical exercise. But will "Slick Rick" and care-free Katie toe the line? Or will they prove a challenge too far for these strict parents?
