Ep 9. Lewis Family

The Lewis family is a blended family with seven children ranging in age from 18 months to 14 years old. The parents, Mark and Sherry, are struggling to manage their lively household, with frequent temper tantrums, uncooperative behavior, and poor communication between family members.

In this episode of Supernanny, Jo Frost steps in to help the Lewis family get back on track. She observes as the family goes about their daily routine and quickly identifies some of the main issues that need to be addressed. The children are often left to their own devices, with little structure or routine, leading to chaotic and difficult behavior. Jo works with the parents to establish a consistent daily routine and set clear expectations for the children's behavior.

One of the main challenges Jo faces is dealing with the different ages and personalities of the children. The older children are often dismissive of their younger siblings and prone to bickering and arguing, leading to a tense and unhappy home environment. Jo helps the parents to set up a reward system for positive behavior and teach the children how to work together as a team.

Another issue that Jo tackles is the children's eating habits. With so many different tastes and preferences to cater to, mealtimes have become a battleground for the family. Jo helps the parents to establish a mealtime routine and introduces some fun and healthy new meal options that the children can enjoy together.

Throughout the episode, Jo also works on improving communication between the family members. She encourages the parents to lead by example and to listen and respond to their children's needs and concerns. By teaching the children how to express themselves in a positive and respectful way, Jo helps to create a more harmonious home environment for everyone.

In the end, the Lewis family is able to come together as a stronger and more united family, with a happier and more positive outlook for the future. With Jo's help, they are able to overcome their challenges and establish a more structured and fulfilling family dynamic.
