Age Gap Parenting Clash

Married couple Trish and Byron are falling out over how to parent their blended family. With seven children, and a 22-year age gap between the two of them, solving it won’t be easy.

Trish and her husband Byron are falling out over how to parent their big, blended family. They have very different approaches and a 22-year age gap between them – with only a few months age difference between Byron and Trish’s eldest son?

The pair take on a blindfolded river walk to get to camp. Then for their second challenge, Byron is in the driving seat. He must decide which of them climbs a stack of crates and which climbs a rope ladder, before they both make a leap of faith for a reward.

In their campfire chat, mediator Dave gets to the heart of their parenting clashes and helps them find a way to carve out time for themselves amidst the chaos of busy family life.

Can they learn how to present a united front to the children? Or will their parenting clashes drive them apart?
