Kids: An Instruction Manual

Rebekah considers herself a laid-back Kiwi. Larry originally from Burundi is very much about discipline. Their differing parenting styles are causing increasing tension which often leads to frustration arguments and problems with the kids.

Many parents struggle with worries around children's anxiety - but how do you know what's normal and what's an actual problem? Will the instruction manual's three simple golden rules be able to help untangle everyone's worries and concerns about 10-year-old Halle?

Following instructions is not Matthew's strong suit. Why is everything a battle with this bright and engaging young boy? Is there a way to develop more calm and cooperation at home?

Kieran and Jean love their daughter Olive a lot - so much so that it actually hurts them to hear her crying. All of this has come to a head around sleeping because five-year-old Olive must always get her own way. Can Nigel help these parents to finally get a better night's rest?

Amy and Ed are a typical Kiwi family struggling with a typical family issue...screen time. Can Nigel help them achieve some kind of balance where everyone's happy? Is such a thing even possible in the modern world?

Like many single parents Bronwyn's worried she isn't doing a very good job. That perhaps two parents are needed to raise a child? But is she really as bad as she thinks she is? Can Nigel help Bronwyn with her parenting?
