I like how quickly the kids picked up the rules and consequences faster than I've seen other families and that dad was actually happy to cut his work hours to help out more.
I hope he keeps it up. It so easy for dads to fall into the work trap.
I agree with the mom
@@wildfireintexas😢
Sometimes you can think your doing the best for your kids and not realise that quality time with your kids can be so much better then putting so much stress on them. Them kids had way to many activities and not enough time with their parents I think Jo telling him opened his eyes.
@wildfireintexas it's so easy for Parents to fall into this.
Jo politely says it's the American way to have all these extra curricular activities but from my experience it's the Chinese way.
Nope my parents did the same thing overscheduled and my parents aren't Chinese, however my parents are immigrants.
It’s the way of the privileged ! Poor people cannot afford extra classes at all!
Trust me when I say it's also an American thing my schedule was so packed at one point I was loosing sleep failing classes and having zero free time 😵💫
Exactly
I was scratching my head over that statement too. My own never had that much going on at once. My 9 grand kids don’t either. I don’t know any families that over scheduled.
“Isabella just ignore him”
As the only daughter with two younger brothers… this one hurt. It’s so familiar. Boys will be boys and we just have to ignore it apparently
I’m very sorry. I also caught that scene and thought it was terrible
Ikr 😞
Yep. I've got 2 sisters and 2 brothers. If my and I were fighting, it was "knock it off or you're both grounded!!" If it was my brother being aggressive or violent, it was "just ignore him"
thats why i told on my brother for cheating on his GF! because boyz being boyz has consequences !
Oh well
"now thats bullying did you see that"
me nodding at jo as if shes actually speaking to me
I mean she’s talking to you
I mean the viewers
i said “oh my gosh yeah!” 😭😭😭
I shout at silly people on talk radio.
This couple were so humble about accepting their responsibility to change and admitting their mistakes. It's so heartwarming how quickly they remedied the many pitfalls they had fallen into. Absolutely beautiful couple-inside and out.
Agreed - zero defensiveness or blaming
The fathers invovlement is priceless and I love how he sutpoted his wife. I noticed that the mother had really changed. she didnt look so tired and frustrated as before, the stress really was seen in her face. Wonderful transformation.
That’s the only way things will change is to own responsibility. It isn’t weakness. It takes strength to change.
I agree
Lol I’m pretty sure it’s for the cameras
The real irony of this episode is the mom being worried about her son’s writing & him incidentally improving those skills by spending so much time in the reflection chair! 😂❤
That’s an awesome insight! 😂
True!! 😂
Wait... Hahaha That's hilarious!
Also, the son's writing might improve simply by having the time and energy to focus on his homework.
Great job pointing this out. My youngest struggled with his reading and writing. We sat together for twenty minutes to have him read to me out loud. He then wrote about what we had read and this little bit of time we had together helped him so much even his teacher pointed how how well his writing was :) Time spent with our kids should help their future 🎉
My best friend is Chinese and when she watched this episode, she just shook her head and said "Yep, how I grew up, I never went to bed earlier than midnight after activities and school work". She does not put her kids through all of that, and they are an amazing family.
I can tell she’s an amazing mother and supports her children.
I was especially impressed by the dad. I was expecting him to be one of those dads who continues to hide in his office rather than engage with the kids, but once Jo said he had to be more involved, he became more involved in every way.
These parents actually were good parents. They just over scheduled the kids and themselves. Allowing them all the room to breathe helped the parents be able to parent. That is all. And the new house is amazingly beautiful!
They are both very lousy parents, with no sense of what's important in this life.
@@MP-wz3buI think they lost sight of what is really important. However, it all came from good intentions. I like the parents and the kids. They will do great.
Not good parents if you’re ambitions override realistic expectations. Bad parenting is represented here. I’ve seen it all in the name of trying to make as much money as possible, using your children and not looking at your own challenges, individually and in your marriage, is the typical response. The children know they are not behaving appropriately.
@@klarablick7796not good intentions here at all, it’s all about avoiding the kids, ( Dad) or yelling at them for being kids
My mom pushes me to sign my kids up for school activities all the time, I'm glad I say no 95% of the time. 😅
Wow! The way the dad actually altered his work schedule to make this work is unheard of! Mom is so much less stressed with an actual parenting partner. Jo did an amazing job with this family, and I must say it's my FAVORITE episode!
Yeah. I thought he wasn't gonna do it.
I went to high school with Chris
I agree! Especially those in the medical field &/or dental AND running two practices. Not something you see everyday. I think it was one of my favorites too. They seemed genuinely happier.
@@GingerNinja1 What did you think of what I said
Me too
My heart broke when that boy spit in his sisters face and hit the little one in the chest. Kids remmeber these things even when very young. It really is traumatizing more than people realise. That poor girl crying looking down, my gosh that was so hard to watch and I just wanted to hug her.
*virtual hug for you and the kid*
I love that the dad said “i just need to cut back on my work, that is all I can do [to fix that]” because he listened to Jo, acknowledged the issue, and put forward the perfect solution. He did not get defensive or apprehensive. Hopefully it stuck
These parents were incredible. It’s nice to see that they weren’t just concerned about their children’s success but also their contribution to society around them. Beautiful family.
Yes, part of the huge change in the children's behaviour is the parents stepping up, not questioning the nannys suggestions. Hats off to all involved!
@@malindathompson6283 Honestly! The advice and help she gives to the parents as well is astounding. Still rings true today.
That's not what I saw.
@@user-nw5ml7lr2b then you were clearly watching something else
Up in the morning no less than 6 but not in bed till God knows when !!! Stunting their brain and physical development because she wants to be the most impressive tiger mom on the Block and u think that's OK????
This is one of my favorite episodes, especially because you can tell the parents love each other and are willing to work together to give their kids good/happy lives. Some parents on here seem like they never care/should have never even had kids.
Yes, they are beautiful parents and such lovely children❤
Love this family! Hope they are all doing well!
I agree. You could see this poor mom was near her breaking point and had no idea how to get control back. She was doing what she thought best for her kids but no one was happy. Mom looked so much less stressed and happier at the end.
the love for prestige
It was so lovely to see the mom and the children getting happier during this episode.
This is probably one of the best episodes I've seen where everything seems to go perfect with the parents and children, and how the parents genuinely care for the well-being of their children. Unfortunately we don't see enough of this on the show as we do here. I'm just glad everyone is cooperating perfectly
It's because EVERYONE was fed up with it. The poor kids were probably tired of all the stuff but didn't want to disappoint parents.
The parent lessons were effective because the parents were committed and well disciplined. No big egos on these parents.
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO TALKS ABOUT DISICPLINE
Very smart couple they are not comfortable with what she is saying but, they are willing to learn and change. I love this family.
@@emmaconstantinides9576 Absolutely agree. They just want to raise good people.
I can just imagine culturally what their in-laws will say about decreasing activities.
You could tell these poor parents had the very best intentions with the activities they just overdid it, Im so glad Jo could help them.
These parents took Jo's recommendations to heart more than any family I've ever seen on this show.
They didn't show any resentment or defensiveness at all. They were genuinely humble and open for guidance. They are wonderful parents.
Totally
There is an old saying: The wise listen to good advice, the foolish listen to nothing. This family shows the true meaning of this saying.
This was the most wholesome, pure family I've ever seen on this show. The love they have for one another and their kids was so obvious. They wanted to be better and they just did it! ❤
SO happy to see the mom smiling and laughing at the end, that’s how having kids should be! At least part of the time!
What an adorable family. I’m glad they got the activities under control.
I’m also really glad they got it under control. I think being involved in that many things, would be WAY too much. I really like how Jo asked the parents to decide which activities they felt were mandatory.
wow i didnt know you could reply to your own comment!!!😱🤯

Thé transformation on the mothers face from beginning to end is enormous. Hope those kids realise these parents are amazing and only want the best for them ❤
Gosh that mum lost 5 years off her face in 5 days. Amazing.
When Jo started the whining voice the shock on the faces of the children, especially one of the boys, made me laugh out loud.
This mom has surreal energy. I believe she can do anything
You say ... "I believe she can do anything" ... I bet she can't fly! ... lol

Am I the only one who thinks Isabella and Charlotte are the most well behaved? It looks like it to me
No, you're not the only one. I fully agree with you.
Because the boys are allowed to dominate! I’m sure that the girls would love to be seen and heard.
Absolutely!
I wonder at what age Christopher watched himself spit on his sister, and felt bad. Like that was 2008.
I saw that Isabella went to Stanford..
This is the most wholesome episode that I’ve seen. They really needed help and they acted on it. You can tell that these parents care deeply about their children.
I love how Jo explained the reason behind the car drill. Its never "because I said so" with her.
Im glad to see that the mom embraced her parental authority!! Good for her.
It’s not the mom as much as the dad who enjoys the fun parts like making all the kids and at times playing with kids but he usually is extremely lazy giving the difficult stuff to the mom. I get that he never admitted that but he was the problem and everyone seemed to protect him maybe because of culture. Imo
I was impressed with how the kids…as well as the parents…didn’t necessarily like what they were hearing about themselves at first, but they eventually embraced it all and all were able to make some positive changes in their lives. Impressive family. 👍
The parents have the perfect base to make this work: They love and respect eachother.
I really liked this episode. I'm not sure if it's because of how well the children responded, or if it was the cooperation of the parents, but this whole family made it really easy for Jo this time around! I wish I could keep watching this family on their own TV show.
It’s just not right to put so much pressure on kids when they’re already busy with school and homework! :(
I did do my homework all the time
Yeah it’s crazy
Jo thinks the parents basically don’t wanna be parents
I dunno
It's not right how the father does so little to help with his kids
Totally agree
I totally understand why Jo said she DIDN’T feel safe in the car. If I were in her shoes, I’d probably feel just as uncomfortable as she did.
Poor camera guy too
He probably went deaf early
They
agreed! lol
If its me i pray all the way to reach destination as fast as possible..i wouldnt be safe with this driver
God bless the mother. I know she has changes to make. When Jo says it turned her stomach when the boy spat in the girls face. The mother, I think, took all the blame on herself in the moment, I know the feeling. She wants to do better, dad was oblivious until Jo confronted him. Beautiful progress for this family.
The parents are so humble. Glad to see how the changes helped this wonderful family. The mom is so beautiful. The best episode ever❤
"The car is fun because I can do anything I want" That's how bad the family was BEFORE Supernanny did something. This sentence shows how out of control the family was.
And sad that the car time was the only down time.
@@Ras6200 Very true
This was 16 years ago. All.the children are now grown adults. I wonder how the family is now.
Dentists or murderers.

@@RabbitTeaPotI've never read the book "demon dentist" but I feel like you are inherently referencing that
I wanted to cry at the end. The kids just needed structure and rules, and this gives them more respect for the parents also.
Not gonna lie 9/10 the dads totally drop the ball, but the dad really worked hard with Jo.
That poor little girl.. omggg. When he elbowed her then spitting in her face I wanted to scream. And mom tells Isabella just ignore him !!! No no no do something mom! He should of been grounded for long time... Unreal.!!!
I couldn't imagine getting spit in the face like that that was terrible!!
My heart broke for her
True. She will end up tolerating abusive partners one day because this was the norm for her.
@@kh1liexactly 😢
Its the mom’s face brightening up and it shows that some burden has been reduced 🤗
I NEVER get bored of watching these. Jo is fabulous . I almost wish I had kids for her to come and sort out 😂
I love this family. THESE are parents! They actually want to be better and be parents and partners. Seriously one of the best episodes and updates.
I agree with Jo on the extra curricular activities. It’s good that the parents are exposing them to all these activities. However, they are making it stressful for themselves and the kids by piling on too much. People need breaks for their mental health. I’m glad they were able to fix the schedule. 👍
This ended up being an open receptive and awesome family!
@@crimsonfirelily Yeah, I think what made the parents so awesome was that they were open to Jo’s advice and they were willing to do whatever it takes to get them on the right track. The exercise Jo used to help them realize how busy their lives were was the best way to get them to realize their mistakes.
@@patrickleclair7256 I totally agree with you!
@@crimsonfirelily Thanks! 😊
One of the best things my mum did was get me into activities when I was real young. Dance, art, gymnastics, swimming, etc. But crucially I didn't do them every day, I was an only kid, and my mum only continued with the ones I wanted to continue with.
I wish she would have gotten me to stick to at least continuing classes in one of them (I continued art but didn't get trained which makes me sad), but it's good to not be stressful about these things.
I do think ultimately it is far better to equip your kids with these skills and more ability in them then to not
“Why arent my kids acting right?”
*forces kid to do 19 extracurricular activities*
It's part of pErSoNaL DeVeLoPmEnT
My ADHD would have lived for this...but I was also an only kid until I was 10, so 😂
Those kids have an insane schedule. No play time. No friends. Very sad. Let them be kids.
@@kathleenpapaleo2720 That's what I think too and I bet those kids hated their Chinese lessons and whatever else because the parents wanted that. I bet they wished they could have quit those lessons but the parents wouldn't have allowed that.
@@Supersoccerchic Nah every kid complains, but culture and language is SO important. Jo was right, they'll thank them later. Growing up without that is how people lose their identity and struggle with it, especially as children of immigrants.
"😇i have to yell at them😇"
"👹LAWRENCE, STOP IT, I MEAN IT👹"
the way her voice changes is ✨️chef's kiss✨️
The REAL office siren 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥
When the dad imitates the whining 😂
Best bit 😂
I came here for this comment! His imitation was on point and hilarious. Lol. That said, I thought this was one of the most fully invested families. Those parents really wanted the best for their family, were willing to make difficult changes and it showed.
I know!! It was so funny, he had it down pat 😂😂
He's hilarious 😂
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
This is one of my favourite episodes of all time! These parents are actually good parents, even though they had their children overscheduled with numerous activities!
What an amazing, loving family. I love these parents and how much they care. Dad is absolutely great. Love him
With each day Jo was there the bags under mom's eyes was less and less...😂😊
These children were the first family where they related so quickly to their parents changing. They weren’t so attached to Jo but were delighting in their new connection to their parents. The father was amazing he was so needed in that family. I hope it continues.
Dad's imitation of whining, is the best! 🤦🏽♀️😂.
The kids' faces in the end reflects the joy in their hearts.❤😊
It’s her own ineffectiveness and unrealistic expectations. No kid should have to eat dinner in the car while on the way to yet another activity.
I really love how concerned these parents are! They're just trying too hard. Poor mom is so alone! I hope the dad keeps up his promises to work less. He's going to look back once they're older and realize his time was the most valuable thing he could give them. Kids remember the time we spend on them way more than the money!
Jo works miracles and brings peace to countless families. Well done Jo.
Lol your so right
Yes she does
I wish we could see some behind the scenes of the episodes or never seen footage. It would be cool to see in depth everything that jo teaches them that we don't get to see in one episode
Excellent idea!!
Second this
Get your own family
These are parents who really love their children! Their willingness to make adjustments for the wellbeing of their family is so impressive, especially in comparison to some other families Jo visits!
When the camera zoomed in on that mothers face (when Joe first met the kids as they wete being picked up from school), her stress and her pain was so palpable. I cannot IMAGINE dealing with this chaos everyday for so many years.
Edit: Around 5:12
The mother looked so tressed out. Almost collapsing. I felt sorry for her.
I love this family and how they really listened to her advice and followed through with all of it.
So you want children? It seems now if you don't want children there's a stigma. The idea of 9 months of morning sickness and labour at the end doesn't make me too keen either!
@@becky2235 I’m 53 never wanted or had kids, never regretted it either 😁
@@becky2235 She never said she wanted kids? Just that they liked the fact the family listened to Jo.
@@becky2235what are you on about
Lovely parents with who have excellent character and desires for their children. I love how they were courageous in letting go of some extracurricular activities and trusting that quality experiences will come to their children in other ways. One of the biggest mistakes I made with my children was putting them into too many activities after school. I’m so happy for these parents and his family to have honed down their activities and increased their ability to spend time with one another. They look so happy and that makes me happy.
My favorite episode. These were real grown ups who cared enough to admit they needed change with out blaming any one.
“And then they started throwing the pears at each other” not sure why but this made me laugh
Same 😂😂
That spit in the face would have made my mother pull over....and I would have woken up 24 hrs later.
Haha , same 😅
Ohhhhhh,,,, YES!
Hahahaa i would have woken up 24 years later 😅
These parents are gentle and kind. Glad to hear Jo Jo point out the importance of speaking respectfully to each other and the burden of too much after school activities.
I felt so sorry for the poor Mom. You could see the stress in her face. At the end of the show, they all looked so happy and Mom even looked 20 years younger! ❤ Nice family and beautiful new home. Best wishes.
These are one of the most adaptable parents I've ever seen. Such an amazing transformation..
I think mom was using activities so other people had control of her kids because she was so frustrated and didn’t know how to discipline. Kids are smart and will take advantage but also smart to do the right thing and understand why they must do better. I really enjoyed this family because the parents both tried really hard and now they can enjoy their kids rather than hide from them! And yes at age 9-that’s just the beginning of expressive writing. Some writers never even learned to read until much older than that! They’ll be fine.
nope, chinese stdent culute
I think you aren't taking their Chinese culture into consideration. Their culture insists on academic, musical and artistic perfection from children, so she was doing everything she possibly could to get them to their many different activities. I'm so glad they listened to JoJo.
Maybe you should have had listened what the reason was.😄
She’s the real Nanny McPhee 👑
Dad’s hiding at work. Guarantee that!
100%. He came home late, got the kids all keyed up again and then walked away to do paperwork.
Very sweet family.I think Dad was the key factor here helping mom to get the kids in line and not just throwing his hands up and leaving it all on her.Great Dad and Husband.The mom at the first of the video looked defeated but at the end she looked so happy and 10yr younger.I hope their oldest boy continues to thrive and do well he seemed like he had the most issues.

Dude. This family. Best improvement I ever seen hands down on this show. Mom and Dad and genuinely really good, hard-working, loving parents that are seriously down to earth and very respectful of each other and their kids and they really just want the best for their kids and to do better. Seeing them work so well with each other is so heartwarming. Listening to them mimick their kids when they whine made me crack up lol.
This show is perfect birth control.
And fantastic as live examples of why no I won't be giving my parents grand kids, and when they insist still the kids can move in and grandparents can enjoy looking after them.
I just fell in love with this family!! It was so wonderful to see the change in their behavior. Mom and Dad really wanted to get solid advice from Jo. And the benefits they received because of it looked to be the best thing for them!❤❤❤
32:44 I DIED OF LAUGHTER WHEN FORREST IMITATED CHRISTOPHER
Lol
When the dad said he was going upstairs to do paperwork, that was awful to leave his wife like that. I would have just said, well ok I'm leaving, bye..
that's how marraiges end, females walking out on their husband and children is sinful
I love how the usual time out spot technique was customized to include practice with writing for Christopher. It addresses the discipline and also helps with what the parents were concerned about.
Gorgeous family..parents really took in what Jo taught and changed things....
Let's just hope the mother didn't put her kids back into all classes after Jo left. 😮
I can’t believe Jo moved them into their new house 😂 go Jo!
I want to know why in that size house they have all the boys in one room
@@alissalatour7332 That's just common. I mean, usually, they have boys in one room and girls in another. I don't get why either but I think at least the oldest one can have their own room.
What an amazing family. Great job by the parents implementing rules, behaviors, and supporting each other. They, by far have been the most receptive thst I've seen on this show at listening to Nanny and sticking with it. Kudos to both. Hope they continue and the father continues spending quality time with his wife and children.
The little girl with the glasses is largely left out. The boys and the other girl act out and take all the attention. She sat defeated within herself.
Another great job Jo Jo.
I loved watching the Duan-Ahn family benefit from JoJo's help. This family truly wanted to change and did. I am so proud of them all. This is my favorite Supernanny episode.
I would like to see Jo work with split custody parents. Teach them to work together.
This!!!
Jo’s all abowe teeechin em ‘ow’oo speek righhhght; she ain’t no schtoopee woomang.
She has done
I like how the cameraman just watches whats going on.
That’s literally his job 😆
What, are they supposed to put them in time out or what 😂
i’m surprised the kids don’t bother them
This one of the few families that the parents accepted their flaws and the help, the entire family adapted. I wish them the best!
Those are really good kids. They were frustrated and tired. Good parents too!
The older sibling elbowed his sister. That really hurts.😢
Yeah that was literally cruel very cruel and then about the other one spitting in his sister's face oh my gosh these children have not been taught respect
Same with him spitting on his sister
All that house and the kids are sharing room? 😳 How excited was Christopher for that hug. 😢
I liked the fact that mom looked so much more relaxed in the end! Really nice episode!
So very pleased with the outcome of Jo's training. These family was so ready for change. 🙏
It's weird the Moms overly strict about their studies but not about their behavior.
u can tell this mom is overwhelmed and stressed out.
The bags under her eyes shows it. I cannot believe that the father does nothing.
Should have refused to have more than 2 kids.
Even her skin gives it away
I'm admiring the fact that this couple was willing to admit what they were doing wrong and was willing to change. My one question is: how can parents let things get so far out of control? who could live like that? well at least they're correcting their ways now and the kids are young enough so that still have time to grow into mature, disciplined adults
At the beginning when dad came home it was so cute. The kids came running happily
Poor dad is probably having to do long hours at work just to pay for all those extra classes!
And the gas prices to keep the car running from place to place.
I don’t feel bad bc he shouldn’t of put them in there in the first place , 9 extracurricular activities is beyond crazy and overstimulating, the usual amount is like 1-2 activities
This family is so adorable. I love how they all worked so well together-they just needed slight guidance to be readjusted. I hope they’re doing well and mom & dad get alone time as well.
These parents really took and used Jo's recommendations better than I've seen any other parents do
What also is VITAL is the ENCOURAGEMENT & VALIDATION & ACKNOWLEDGEMENT when
the kids do GOOD things & are
HELPFUL. This REINFORCES
the GOOD things & not just the bad. ❤
