Six-year-old Jack has his mum bruised, battered and defeated by the battle he wages each bedtime, and he's not afraid to take a swing at Jo. Can she persuade mum Nikkie to march into the fray and take on her violent son? For superhero fan George, ten costume changes a day is a way of life - now he can't concentrate at school and is falling behind.
Being a parent is the most important journey of your life, but the trouble is no one gives you a map – until now. Jo Frost, Britain’s best-known parenting expert, returns with a new series providing mums and dads with the honest, insightful, no-nonsense advice they need.
Jo talks to Britain’s parents to find out which issues are really worrying about them, whether it’s how many hours their children play computer games or how much exercise they’re getting. In each show she sets out to answer these most pressing of parental questions with a large-scale demonstration involving kids and parents, aiming to debunk myths and reveal crucial facts such as how much children should eat, how many hours of sleep they really need; and the truth about just how young girls are when they start to obsess about their bodies.
In each programme, Jo also meets two families suffering from severe versions of the kinds of problems everyone worries about, from a seven-year-old boy who only eats bread and butter to a ten-year-old so addicted to computer games he spends up to 80 hours a week at the screen.
