Karen: "I'm Karen."

Frank: "And I'm Frank."

Karen: "And we have two kids. Olivia, who's 6, and Megan, who's 4. Olivia has been kicked out of three schools over the last year due to her violent behavior."

Frank and Karen (in unison): "Supernanny, please come help the Parkinson family now!"

Jo (closes her DVD-player): "Well, I'll be there as soon as possible."

Jo Arrives at the Door
[Jo gets out of her Supernanny van, walks up the steps to the Parkinson family's front door, and knocks on it]

[A woman with wavy, shoulder-length, chestnut brown hair answers the door with a smile]

Jo: "Hello."

Karen (smiling): "Hi, I'm Karen, pleased to meet you."

Jo (smiling): "Hi, Karen, pleased to meet you, I'm Jo." [Jo and Karen shake hands]

Karen (cheerfully): "Come on in!"

Jo: "Thank you."

[Cut to a dark-haired man greeting Jo with a smile]

Jo: "Hi, Frank, hi, pleased to meet you, I'm Jo." [Jo and Frank shake hands]

[A fair-skinned little girl with long, wavy dark brown hair and big, dark brown eyes runs into the room shrieking playfully]

Olivia: "Hi! I'm Olivia!"

Jo: "Hi, Olivia. Pleased to meet you, I'm Jo-Jo." [Jo and Olivia shake hands]

[A little girl with long, straight, light brown, almost dirty blonde, hair, and dark brown eyes, walks into the room]

Jo (smiling): "Well, who's this little one?"

Karen (smiling): "This is Megan."

Jo: "Hi, Megan, pleased to meet you. I'm Jo-Jo. Shake Jo-Jo's hand." [Jo and Megan shake hands]

Jo: "So, Frank and Karen, I'm here today to observe the family, I understand you have some issues that need to be addressed, but carry on as normal as if I'm not even here."

Karen: "OK."

Frank: "Sounds good to me."

Observation Begins
Jo: "I couldn't have been really in the doorway for more than five minutes when Olivia started to kick off and behave extremely naughty."

[Olivia attempts to throw a ball at Karen's head]

Karen: "Knock it off."

[Olivia laughs]

Karen: "We don't throw balls in the house. If you wanna play ball, go outside."

Olivia: "Shut the (*bleep*) up!"

Karen: "HEY! Olivia, watch your mouth."

[Olivia continues to threaten to throw the ball at Karen's head]

Karen (sternly): "Don't you dare throw it at me."

[Olivia throws the ball at Karen's head]

Karen: "That's it. You've lost this ball."

Olivia (screaming): "NOOOOOO!"

Karen: "You can have it back tomorrow, if you behave yourself for the rest of the day."

Olivia: "NO! GIMME MY BALL BACK NOW!"

Karen: "You better stop screaming at me!"

Olivia: "GIMME MY BALL BACK!!"

Karen: "No!"

[Olivia starts hitting Karen]

Karen: "DO NOT HIT ME!"

Jo: "Is Olivia always aggressive like this to you?"

Karen: [sighs] "Yes, unfortunately. Usually if she doesn't get her way or is told no."

Observation continues
Jo: "I couldn't believe Olivia had the same brain mixed with Lois Kiejeliches so Megan scribbled all over the walls."

[Megan scribbles all over the walls with a black crayon]

[Karen gasps]

Megan: "Mommy! Mommy! Look!"

Karen: "Megan! Did you do this?"

Megan: "Yes I did!"

Karen: "You are staying in the Naughty Triangle for 4 minutes!"

Megan: "Okay."

[Karen drags Megan to the Naughty Triangle]

Karen: "You have lost your Draculaura doll for 4 minutes, missy!"

4 minutes later...

Karen: "You can get out now. I cleaned up the walls for you."

Megan: "Yay! Can I have my Draculaura doll?"

Karen: "Yes you may."

Megan: "Sweet!"

Olivia: "What a good girl she is!"

Naughty Triangle
Jo: "Later on, Mom and Dad were trying to get Olivia to go shopping with them. But Olivia refused to go and wanted to go to her friend's house."

Olivia: "I want to go to Lily's house, please!"

Karen: "Not today. We are shopping at the mall to buy a birthday present for your cousin Elizabeth."

Olivia: "But I want to go see Lily! She's got a new in-ground pool!"

Karen: "I didn't ask you! I said not today! You have to help Mommy pick out a birthday present for Elizabeth."

Jo: "And that's when the fireworks went off."

Olivia: "I WANNA GO SEE LILY!"

Frank: "Olivia, no!"

Olivia (crying): "I WANNA GO TO LILY'S HOUSE!!!! I WANNA GO TO LILY'S HOOOOOOOOOUSE!!!"

[Olivia throws a tantrum like a 2-year-old]

Frank: "Stop this behavior right now! It isn't me, it is you! We have to get a birthday present for Elizabeth. If you continue this tantrum, you will go to the Naughty Triangle, and all of your Maya & Miguel toys will be in toy jail, and you won't have it back until three days. Got it?"

[Olivia ignores Frank and continues throwing her tantrum]

Olivia (screeching): "I WANT TO GO AND SEE LILY!!!"

Jo: "Firmly tell her to get in the car, otherwise she will lose her Maya & Miguel play set."

Karen (firmly): "Olivia Marie Parkinson, this is your warning. You need to get in the car right now, otherwise you will lose your Maya & Miguel play set for three days. Is that clear?"

[Olivia climbs out of her bedroom window and runs to Lily's house]

Olivia: "I WILL SEE LILY IN NO TIME!"

Frank: "GET OVER HERE OR ALL OF YOUR MAYA & MIGUEL TOYS WILL BE SOLD ON EBAY!"

Jo: "I was like, eBay?"

Jo: "How is threatening to sell your child's toys on eBay supposed to teach her to listen to you and teach her to behave?"

Frank: "I'm frustrated. Let's go, Olivia!"

[Frank grabs Olivia as she tries to run to Lily's house]

Olivia (screaming): "I WANT LILYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!"

Karen: "Well, it's too late now!"

Jo: "Dad eventually took Olivia back to the house, but what came next was absolutely shocking."

[Olivia smacks Karen in the face repeatedly]

[Karen smacks Olivia's hand]

Karen: "You do not smack me in the face! That is not nice! It doesn't work OK!"

Olivia: "GO TO H(*bleep*)!!"

Jo: "I was absolutely appalled when Karen smacked Olivia back when Olivia smacked her. I do not approve of parents smacking their children at all."

[Karen tries to get Olivia into the car, but Olivia squirms and starts kicking and hitting Karen]

Karen (screaming angrily): "OLIVIA MARIE!!!!"

[Olivia is crying and screaming hysterically, while hitting and kicking her mother]

Jo: "Mom was struggling to control Olivia, so I stepped in and gave her a firm talking-to."

[Jo gets very angry with Olivia]

Jo: "This is unacceptable behavior! I really don't appreciate your behavior! These aren't acceptable!"

Olivia (sneering): "I want to see Lily anyway, and you're not taking me to the mall anyway, f(*bleep*) face." (Blows raspberry with her tongue)

[Jo doesn't seem pleased and raises her voice]

Jo: "THAT IS ENOUGH!!! YOU ARE FAILING TO LISTEN TO YOUR MOTHER!!!!!"

Olivia: "I HATE YOU!"

[Olivia cartwheels to Lily's house]

Olivia: "I WILL GO TO LILY'S HOUSE IN NO TIME!"

Frank: "Listen to me, if you go to Lily's house, I will sell your Maya & Miguel toys on eBay!"

[Olivia darts back into the house, locks her bedroom door, packs all her stuff, darts right out the window, and cartwheels to Lily's house]

Olivia: "TOO LATE! I WILL GO TO LILY'S HOUSE AND YOU WON'T SELL MY MAYA & MIGUEL TOYS ON EBAY!"

Frank: "I'll sell your Wander plushie on eBay."

Olivia: "I PACKED THOSE TOO! I PACKED EVERYTHING I HAVE! AND NOW I'M GOING TO LILY'S HOUSE!"

[Olivia darts right to Lily's house]

Karen: "Come back here right now!!!"

[Karen grabs Olivia by the arm and drags her back to the house]

Olivia (screaming at the top of her lungs): "I WANNA GO TO LILY'S HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUSE!!!!!!!!!!"

Frank: "Well, you can't. We're going to the mall."

[Olivia screams at the top of her lungs]

Jo: "Olivia then started screaming, so I stepped in again."

Jo (in a firm voice): "Right now, your behavior is absolutely appalling! When your mother or father asks you to do something, YOU do it! It wasn't me, It was you. You are not going to Lily's house and that decision is final. You've now lost your Maya & Miguel play set and your Wander plushie for a week. Now get in the car and do as you're told."

[Jo gets unpleased and raises her voice]

Jo: "I AM NOT HAPPY WITH THIS BEHAVIOR, THE WAY YOU ARE TREATING ME IS UNACCEPTABLE, YOU DO NOT TACKLE MEGAN TO THE GROUND OR TALK NONSENSE TO ME! YOU ARE NOT WATCHING MAYA AND MIGUEL AND THAT DESICION IS FINAL!!! NOW YOU OWE YOUR MOTHER AN APOLOGY FOR YOUR BEHAVIOR!!!"

Frank: "Stop it, right now!"

Olivia: "I'm gonna hit your sister!"

Frank: "You shouldn't do that, Olivia!"

[Olivia slaps Megan who is already in the car and is next to her]

Megan: "Stop hitting me!"

Frank: "Don't slap your sister because you're mad!"

Olivia: "I'll pee in my pants right now!"

Karen: "Don't you dare pee in your pants!"

[Cut to Karen dismantling Olivia's car seat]

Karen: "I can't believe you peed in your pants, Olivia. You are in big trouble. That's disgusting."

[Olivia rapidly kicks Frank's seat]

Frank: "Olivia stop it! Stop. I didn't ask you to go to Lily's house! It isn't me, it is you, OK? It wasn't me, it was you. You are distracting me. It is not OK to distract the driver, It doesn't look OK to distract the driver."

Olivia: "SHUT UP!!!!"

Jo: "Not only is it not OK, it's also dangerous. If the driver can't see the road, a serious accident could happen, If the driver shouldn't see the road, it will hurt you."

[Olivia constantly swears all the way home. As soon as they get there, Olivia runs straight to Lily's house While Megan runs to Jessica's house]

YOU DO NOT CAUSE MAYHEM AT THE MALL WHILE WE'RE SHOPPING OR HIT YOUR MOTHER AND YOUR FATHER!!!!! WHEN WE GET BACK INSIDE, YOU ARE GIVEN ONE MORE CHANCE, AND IF YOU DON'T STOP THIS NONSENSE, YOU WILL GO STRAIGHT TO THE NAUGHTY TRIANGLE RIGHT AWAY AND LEARN TO ACCEPT THAT WHEN MOM AND DAD SAY NO, NO IS NO!!!! AND I DON'T CARE HOW ANGRY YOU GET, AND HOW MUCH YOU SCREAM!!!! NOW GO INSIDE AND BEHAVE YOURSELF!!!! THIS IS YOUR WARNING!!!!!"

Jo: "But once we got the girls inside, Megan just got worse."

[Olivia stops her tantrum and goes up to her room]

Jo: "Look, Megan. Your sister is now being a good girl and behaving herself. How about you do the same?"

White Sheets Technique
Jo: "Today I brought in the White Sheets since Frank and Karen always allowed Olivia to touch, use, and go. This family has some issues that need to be addressed."

Jo: "Today, I'm going to introduce you to...the White Sheets. This technique is very important and there are issues that need to be addressed because you always allowed Olivia to touch, use, and go. When she sees anything marked with a White Sheet, that means it's not touchable; she is not allowed to touch it or use it. Also, when she sees a door that leads to a bedroom with a white sheet, that means she cannot go in there. It means, no go."

Frank: "Olivia, when you see the White Sheet, it means, just for you, not touchable. No touch, no use, and no go or else mommy or I will put you straight on the Naughty Triangle. Got it?"

Olivia: "F(*bleep*) off."

Karen: "Do not say that. These sheets mean you're forbidden from touching and using it."

Karen: "Olivia, This is your warning if you say that one more time, you will go to the naughty triangle, You got it."

Olivia: "Yes!"

Karen: "OK, Don't say that, One more time, Then to the naughty triangle for not listening to me."

Olivia: "F(*bleep*) off."

Karen: "I didn't ask you to get up, It isn't me it is you, Look at me Olivia, It wasn't me it was you, I will take your iPod away and you won't give it back until tomorrow, Got It."

[Karen puts Olivia back to the Naughty Triangle]

Jo: "Don't talk to her, Just put her back to the Naughty Triangle."

Olivia: "DOES THE WHITE SHEET SUCKS"

Karen: "No, It doesn't suck, These aren't all suck either!"

[Karen puts Olivia back to the Naughty Triangle]

Karen: "OK."

Jo: "If she refuses to write the essay or apology letter, she will either lose any of her toys, be sent to the Naughty Triangle, or be sent to bed early."

Karen: "Alright."

Frank: "Sorry, but you'll have to do that without us. Goodbye!"

Later...

Karen: "Olivia, this is absolutely the last birthday party your father and I will ever take you to until you can behave properly."

Olivia: "Good! I am glad! I never liked stupid birthday parties anyway! I never liked stupid, ugly Elizabeth either!"

Frank: "The next time we go to a birthday party, you will stay with Grandma, Missy! And you WILL have to write a 100-word essay about what you did at the party and an apology letter to Elizabeth and her mommy! Also, you will never see Lily again!"

Olivia: "I WILL STILL GO AND SEE LILY!!!!"

Frank: "You will never see Lily or any of your friends ever again and you will go to bed early if you continue this behavior!"

[Olivia reluctantly grabs a pencil and begins writing an apology letter to Elizabeth and Terri under Frank's supervision]

Olivia: "(*bleep*) YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Frank: "You're grounded for a week! And your TV privileges are also gone for two weeks and absolutely no friends until further notice! And I will tell Santa to leave you coal in your stocking next Christmas!

[Olivia runs more faster to Lily's house]

[Upon arrival, Olivia sees a sad Lily]

Karen: "No! Stay on the Naughty Triangle!"

Jo: "Don't talk to her, Karen, just reset the timer, and then walk away."

[Megan finally stays put for 4 minutes with a smile on her face]

Megan: "And then, I went to the Naughty Triangle without crying, throwing a tantrum, escaping, flipping out, or screaming."
