Supernanny is pretty amazing, still. She puts up with a ton of shit from other people’s kids (oh yeah, but she receives a nice fee from the producers too, forgot that part).
One thing I love about her is how she points out that the kids are usually copying the parents in their attitude to start with. The sheepish look of recognition when a parent is told this is priceless. “Maybe your daughter swears at you and is sarcastic is because she’s a bit like you, dear”
Another is how she gets so attached to them. When she leaves there’s always hugs all round and almost tears in some cases. I feel it’s a cover up for her feeling sorry for the parents in that they can’t leave, unlike her. A good saying: “Kids are great, as long as you can give them back at the end of the day.”
