I think that was a very wise decision on your part. It is only money - and really, in the grand scheme of things, it isn't THAT much money. You could easily make that with a part time job that you enjoy (ok, so it may take a year, not a week...).

As other posters have said, it is their job to make a nice person look crazy and to make a good mom look like the worst mom ever. They'll do their best to make you look stupid, ignorant... crazy, psycho --- all of those things that make the show get the ratings!

Good for you for thinking this through. Your babies need you right now more than you need bad publicity and the money!

Sounds exciting, could use the money! I really thought it was 14 days, hmm, the power of TV. DO IT!

even though they say you get that amount, i wonder what the cost is, really. not money wise, but letting a stranger in your house for that long - sleeping under your roof and being in your home while hub is away at work? if it wasnt a tv show im sure all of us would say no in a heart beat. i guess i just worry that there are strings involved.

actually, if you are serious and you manage to get dh on board - or before getting him to commit, i would ask the show contact to provide you with a few names of families that were already on - and contact them if possible and ask how their experience was and if they would do it again.


and lastly, what ever happened about the mail scam?
I'm with this post...I truly believe that they will be making your family look crazy, and it puts your kids in a vulnerable place...as well as your already hesitant husband.
