When I watch these types of programmes I think bad kids, but terrible parents.
This one prog last week featured a mum who was having probs bathing her kid. About 19 months old, the kid didnt like getting her hair washed with the hose in the bath. Also, kid was unhappy in bath.
Solution - wash hair with a cup in bath. No shit sherlock. The kid was terrified and the cup solution worked a treat and the mum was gobsmacked as if this was some miracle revelation.
I think I would have tried other things before going on tv.
