DEAF PARENTS WITH FOUR HEARING CHILDREN CHALLENGE
JO’S COMMUNICATION SKILLS, ON ABC’S “SUPERNANNY”
“Baulisch Family” Dorothy and Kip Baulisch of Papillion, Nebraska,
are deaf parents raising four hearing children. They rely too heavily
on their eldest daughter, Melissa (18), who understands sign language,
as a surrogate “hearing” parent, and it’s put a huge strain on her
relationship with them.
She’s giving up her youth to be a full-time interpreter in her own
house. The three youngest daughters are nightmares – Jessica (8) and
Jennifer (7) challenge their parents to the point where they simply
give up trying to control them; the youngest daughter, Kristin (5),
ignores her parents completely because she can’t understand what
they’re saying, and constantly throws temper tantrums. On a typical
evening in the Baulisch household, it takes Kip and Dorothy at
least three hours to get the younger girls to bed, as they run amuck
through the house, refusing to settle in.
When Melissa has the opportunity to confront her parents, she becomes
so frustrated that she storms out of the room. Jo brings Dorothy, Kip
and Melissa back together to begin a plan of attack, but can she close
the communication gap to bring the Baulisch family together?
“Supernanny” airs FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10 (9:00-10:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC
Television Network.
