The War at Home

The War at Home

Description: When Dave and Vicky were growing up, their parents had it easy. Back then, there were no "timeouts," no one had any "boundaries" and "parenting" wasn't even a word. Parents also had no idea what their kids were really up to. Now Dave and Vicky have teenagers of their own, and anything their kids might even think about doing, Dave and Vicky have already done (at least twice). But knowledge isn't power; every day is a battle to keep their kids in line. Fifteen-year-old Larry isn't exactly the coolest kid in school, while 16-year-old Hillary thinks she knows it all and is just emerging onto the dating scene. Meanwhile, at 13, Mike is all hormones and video games. Dave and Vicky figure if they can send these three off to college without a police record -- or kids of their own -- they've done a pretty decent job.
