There's too many good shows in that timeslot. I had my major "AHA!" moment in the first season watching Max. He still acts better than most difficult children I think, but it's still nice to see it out there where easy child parents get an inkling of an idea of what we deal with, and that it's not about "putting the hammer down" on their behavior and that even with everyone doing their best gfgdom happens.
I was worried when it started they would find out he had Asperger's then when they got their in home "behavior aide" (who is gone now because young bro. slept with her) that a few stickers later he would be a "normal" kid. but that has never happened. I agree he doesn't really act as challenging as most of us deal with, but the worry of the parents, the splits in the family over not believing (grandad at first just didn't get it at all). If any of you watched from last year, one high interest is bugs/insects and he goes on and on and so that was the theme of his birthday party and the bug man came who himself was an Aspie. Took a while for the famillly to catch on, I thought that was strange because we get radar pretty early on.
they had to make some realistic decisions, gen ed. school vs. special needs school etc. Now he just moved back to mainstream so will be an interesting year. Even the issue with the younger cousin...my neices and nephews love difficult child but they go in and out of being patient with his hurtful behaviors. Especially the little girls love to tell on him.
There are episodes online and On Demand has episodes too if anyone is interested
