I would rather see kids like them than the spoiled brats in the other family, expecting their poor grandma to wait hand and foot on them, what a selfish mother they had to let that happen and to encourage them to be so full of themselves and shallow is awful.
I am so glad things balanced out a bit and hope those girls will mature and realise it's not the clothes that make a good person.

I used to do a milk round when I was a lad,out at 6am
but I am sure that getting the kids to help on a farm, is not at all strange......to a farmer.

but to a townie..............????

I didn't actually see Wife Swap this evening. Whenever I have seen it though, I normally think that at least one set of parents is a little odd, to say the least.

Sounds rather like my East Anglian ancestors. Although I doubt that they went to school afterwards!

HOW CAN PARENTS HAVE THEIR CHILDREN GET UP AT 4.45AM EVERY DAY TO HELP OUT ON THE FARM BEFORE GOING OFF TO SCHOOL?
AND THE FATHER HAS THEM FRIGHTENED TO DEATH.

THESE PEOPLE NEED LOCKED UP.
