Woudl you go on 'The house of tiny tearaways'?? (not a Tanya Byron bashing thread)

[trinityrocks]

I personally LOVE the woman and the way she sorts out the kiddies prblems, I would love to have her help me but is going on the show a good idea?????
I mean the fact it's a tv show, very public, argh type thing.

No...hate all those Nanny/child doctor programmes.

I would if I were desperate.

I always think it's a bit weird to expect a child with severe sleep problems to settle into a new sleep routine in a completely different/strange environment. Tbh that doesn't sit well with me. With other problems I think it's okay, but wouldn't do it myself.

I received an email asking if i=I would like to go on but dh declined, a week later I had another email requesting we take part but dh declined again.
Firstly, yes, dd2 is a handful and until recently never slept longer than 2 hours in 24 but why the hell would I want to go on there?

Tegan, why did you receive an e-mail asking you to go on there if you and your dh didn't want to? I love the programme and TB, although the repitition is annoying - if they cut all that out they could fit the programme in 1/2 an hour!

tbh Tegan if my children hadn't slept more than 2 hours in 24 I think I would feel desperate enough to do anything, including going on national TV.

I guess it depends on how old your children are and how well you can cope with the particular problem. I really don't think I could manage long-term sleep deprivation and I'd do anything to solve it.

No, imagine the children as adults seeing that they were a complete nighmare as a toddler and the whole country was able to see you at your worst.

I had received an email via magazine website I subscribe to asking which toddler taming programmes I watch. I replied saying that I watched tiny tearwaways and supernanny. The questionaire was sponsored by the bbc nd as such I was aked if I wanted to go on the programme.

someone from the house of tiny tearaways prog posted on my thread asking if i was interested in participating in the prog, as im having trouble with my ds but i dont want the nation watching me fail as a mother!

havnt read all this thread but love the house of tiny Ts and think tanya is brilliant. Take her sound advice all mums with little tearaways.

we got invited to go on, should have been this lot round, camras was bbc was coming to our house and i got cold feet, they was going to do befor then after youve been in house

I didn't realise they asked people regardless of whether they knew they had a problem or not. Maybe they're having trouble finding people to go on as there's so many of these progs now?

Tegan oyu need to go on mate

we did have a problem, ds is 4 in june still dont sleep eat,

Suddenly a week after the second email dd started to sleep 10 hr nights perhaps she is psychic
