I also thought it was wrong that Austin got yelled out for leaving the twins unattended when Kelly was the one that snuck off when he was in the shower.

I got the feeling Sasha was metally and physically exhausted and obviously frustrated. To be criticized so harshly after doing everything possible to soothe
the child I can understand her breakdown. That child was inconsolable. The other couples would have given up on him. I thought Jordan was very supportive
and I think the Mother was upset that he chose Sasha over the baby.

lol I admit the Nanny was correct to step in... and the way she approached it was funny. But I just wish Kelly was the one to get the lecture.

I thought the nanny stepping in was silly. Toddlers don't always sleep during nap time. What are they (and parents everywhere) supposed to do? Sit on
the floor and will them to sleep with the evil eye? It's not like they were running in the street.

I was shocked to discover that one of the participants, young Sean, or Shawn, I don't remember how he spells it, I went to highschool with him and we were reasonable friends. We'd talk now and then and took some classes together. Reall cool kid actually. Not suprised to see how well he's doing so far, though it's funny that he went on to get his gilfriend, who I've never met btw, to NOT want kids. |

I wonder if the big twist at the end of this is that all the girls are already pregnant. |

I was thinking that the one girl looked like she could already be pregnant... Kelsey? How old are these kids anyway?

Holy crap, preteens are worse than babies. I would have left the house 5 minutes after dealing with the three brothers. I'm glad they found some normal
ones like Seth and Sara to give the teens a break.

Was anyone else disgusted when they showed the teens who were taking care of the three boys, and they had the two aquariums on the kitchen counter. That cant
be sanitary.

I agree, that was fantastic.
All the kids were in college though. Next time they need to get some lower income teens that wern't in college. I really loved this show. It was done really well. |

I come from a big family. When I was teenager I used to babysit on the weekends. I would constantly interact with the kids and at that time it was 50 cents to
a dollar on the hour. If I came upon a problem I would consult my parents and if it got worse, which it never did, I would contact the parents. It's not
that big of a deal. What was really bugging me was how these teens were interacting with the kids. I personally feel that we have got a bunch of spoiled brats
who have no idea on child rearing. It's not rocket science. And I have to add that it takes no degree. What I think it comes down to is being selfish.
It's not all about yourself. Get over it and interact.
