    If you've had five years of shouting, hitting,swearing and not caring and don't know any different then why change? The parents have been completely lazy letting this carry on. The sad thing is that as soon as the program is over, do you really think that they are going to change? (the parents I mean).

    Because by then you've blown your chances. That's it."

    yes i agree they have been turning a blind eye and deaf ear !

    i never tollerated behaviour like this and children need rules for stability

    i feel if this kind of behaviour is allowed to go on then teenage years are going to become bad indeed.

    kind of amazes me on this show how many parents think if they ignore it then it will stop.

    children can be very hard work but they need firm rules.

    when my daughter watches this with me she is appauled too !
  • I'm watching it..... I'm gobsmacked:eek:

    Well I am sorry I know any child can be badly behaved but obviously these kids are like this it is because they have been allowed away with things.

  • I feel sorry for the Dad with the whole incident in the room with Cameron, he was completely undermined!!

    Not only is his kids not respecting his place as Father but his wife doesnt respect him either. She just acted like a big baby with her 2 boys in the room, can see the future already planned out here

    BTW I do not want to come across as being perfect, I am not I have a child who went off the rails when he was a teenager but even he would never have behaved in that way.
