[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 18427, member: 3419"] I like the writing style... funny and clever. But I kind of like SuperNanny... minus the commercials. I want to invite her over to yank my kids out of bed and whack them into shape! LOL! I think there's something to be said for both systems. Clearly, on network Prime Time, there's no time for delving into serious psychiatric issues. That's not what the show's about and it makes no claims to be. (Dr. Phil, on the other hand, isn't afraid to tackle an anorectic who is clearly ready to die at any moment. Yikes!) We all need systems. Even on chaotic playgrounds, there are rules. Think about it. The appeal of SuperNanny's autocratism is her calm, take-control manner, like the Grandma that Mom doesn't have and really needs, because Mom is at the end of her rope. Funny that the author writes that most viewers think, "Whew, at least my kids aren't that bad!" Not true for all of us, eh? [img]:smile:[/img] [/QUOTE]
