All-new Supernanny! http://www.supernanny.com/TV-Show/Upcoming.aspx Supernanny is back to battle parent panic and kid chaos! The McGrath family, Friday November 27, 9/8c (check local listings) Bill and Tammy McGrath, of Hamlin, New York, have three beautiful young children, and their middle son, Aiden, 5, was recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Managing his illness is very anxiety-provoking for Tammy, because she saw her father die of diabetes at just 46 years of age. She sees Aiden’s diagnosis as her worst fears realized, and mealtime has become a battlefield. Aiden makes power plays and refuses to eat, which not only threatens his own health and frightens Tammy, but causes problems for both parents in controlling Aiden’s insulin levels. The other kids, Liam, 4, and Paige, 9, feel their parents’ distraction and are frustrated by it – Paige hides out in her bedroom, and Liam acts out aggressively. Jo pinpoints Bill and Tammy’s problems communicating effectively and enforcing discipline – their versions of timeout are useless. Can she help Bill and Tammy regain control of their family?

I love Supernanny. I watch it over the weekend when they run a lot in a row on Style. Hope I can get this new episode. I think this turmoil goes on in a lot of houses and I hope she can approach the meal situation with some "diabetic" sympathy but firmness. I "kept" an episode on yesterday where they were talking about tone of the dad, because my husband often has "frustrated tone" with the kids and doesn't even hear it.

I 'm so glad you posted this! I haven't watched it in awhile, but I'll be sure to catch this episode.
I'm curious to see how the nanny handles this situation-as I'm sure so many of our families find themselves in the same turmoil. Thanks Ellen.

My only concern is actually from the diabetic community. I expect to hear lots of comments like "why not do it this way" or "She needs to change the child's insulin regimen". I hope that everyone remembers what it was like to be newly diagnosed and if the family does diabetic care a certain way, everyone will be respectful to that. I think sometimes that people who actually know what we are going through are the worst critics sometimes.
