do you worry that you might be in need of a 'brat camp' in the future?

just watching it on channel 4. my 2 are only little, how do things get that bad?

My wonderful DD (15) says it's soooo unfair that you have to be a brat to get sent to such fab wilderness experiences, & can I send her please

I could recommend a few of her school colleagues though!

at the begining, they said they had over 3000 applications for this latest series!

When the 1st series was on my eldest dd was 9, and I could really imagine that we would end up wanting to send her somewhere like that. Now she's 11 I'm pleased to say I watch it and think things could never get that bad! It's been a sort of annual barometer of how things are going in our house.

Yes - and it scares the pants off me. I used to think that DS would be the one in need of it, given his behaviour as a toddler and upwards, but he has calmed down a lot, and my lovely, easy-going DD of nearly 7 is beginning to show signs of being related to the Tasmanian Devil. Oh God, I hope not....
