Episode summary[]
Jo visits The Heredia Family in Newbury Park, California where Christina (36) and Joe (37) have four children: 4-year-old Brandon and triplets Taylor, Samantha and Ryan, who are 2 years old. Christina is a perfectionist who worries about what other people think of her parenting skills.
With triplets, even the simplest tasks are 3 times harder, especially taking them out for a walk in the neighborhood. The triplets fight and hit each other. They also throw temper tantrums. Meanwhile, big brother Brandon is not getting as much attention as his siblings. Sometimes he can get frustrated about it and would get physical with his siblings or yell at his parents. All of the kids don’t eat dinner. Can Jo help the Heredias and teach Christina how to be more effective and teach both of the parents how to divide their attention to each child?
