[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 501713, member: 1233"] They screen VERY carefully for these shows. They do NOT take true difficult children. Or they take ones where a short term change can be made and you NEVER find out that a week after she left the kid was back to whatever it was. I like this nanny better than Jo Frost. She is a lot more no-nonsense, in my opinion. She also isn't so "its all fixed and wonderful now" and admits that while great changes are seen they are just the beginning of the road. I honestly think most kids can be fixed with some simple basic parenting tools like consistency. difficult children are not as common and these shows avoid kids with a long history of problems. I saw one episode of SuperNanny where the oldest daughters were at each other's throats and a letter supposedly fixed things. You could watch it and tell that the girls were NOT terribly sincere and that the nanny TOTALLY missed it. Wiz once dared me to get SuperNanny in. Showed me a plan of action to make her run away. I think she would have, to be honest. There is NO WAY she could have handled him. Of course this was about the time that husband was starting to think about exorcism to help Wiz. in my opinion SuperNanny and exorcism would have been equally unhelpful. [/QUOTE]
