Carsley Family

Cheryl Carsley is a harried single mom with five children, including two sets of twin boys. She's in school full-time, training to be a teacher, but at home her kids -- Chantal, 7, Nicolas and Caleb, 5, and Bobby and Elijah, 4 -- rule the roost. The house looks like it hasn't been cleaned in years, but worse than that is the way the kids treat their Mom and each other. A bitter divorce has left the children emotionally scarred; they hit their mother, scream at her, fight with each other and throw fits. The kids don't listen or treat Cheryl with respect, and every technique she has tried has failed. On top of this, how can a single working mom find one-on-one time with each child?
