The Goins Family is the eleventh episode of Season 3 of the American Supernanny show.
Episode summary[]
Jo visits The Goins Family in Salt Lake City, Utah where Jay (30) and Karolee (29) have three children: 6-year-old Khalin, 5 year old Kolben, and 2 year old Kadance.
Their oldest son, Khalin, who has attention deficit hyperactive disorder has a hard time behaving in school and completing his homework, and is physically and verbally aggressive (Talking about Commiting Suicide Once) and tends to lash out violently at his parents. Kolben is mischievous and Kadence is starting to pick up her older brothers' bad behavior. The kids also tend to snack a lot throughout the day without permission.
Karolee is stressed out and struggling to control her children. Meanwhile, father Jay spends more time resting after his job rather than helping his wife with disciplining the kids. With Karolee pregnant with her fourth child, she needs Jay's help more than ever.
Can Jo help Karolee understand Khalin's ADHD? Can she help Jay get more involved in parenting, help get the kids under control, and relive his pregnant wife?

Trivia[]
- This is the only episode to take place in Utah.
- There was a part where the children were playing with toy trains. Although, it's unknown what brand they were.
- Jo did not approve of Karolee putting Khalin in timeout but this can be seen as hypocritical as she has put Zachary from The Dostal Family in timeout although it was unknown during filming as he was diagnosed a year later, and Rhys from The Howat Family although he was diagnosed before filming.
- In the first thumbnail on YouTube, Jo was at The McAfee Family's house (which was the episode before this) instead of The Goins Family's house for some reason.
