My family loves the Fox show Trading Spouses. We seldom miss it and it is one of the few remaining things we all do together anymore.
We have been discussing it for some time-- and we finally filled out an on line application to be on the show.
They seem to like a gimmick-- and 6 kids, 3 of which are triplets seems to me to fit the bill.
I really want to be picked and really want to go to a family which is vastly different than mine....
If we get picked I will probably be sent to a home where there is 1-2 children, no pets and a husband who knows where a skillet might be kept....
Please do whatever it is you do... pray, karma, good thoughts and send them my way! I want to do this!
Trading Spouses.... I applied!

Good luck Auds ! If I were going to be on a reality show, I would pick SURVIVOR...if it was in the mountains somwhere. I do not like the idea of trying to survive in jungley places. I could kick some serious butt if they did Camping Survivor...LOL.

Thayne gets a new wife for a week.... O LA LA!
The spouses switch families for one week and do what the other mother would do.... At the end of the week they return home--but they get to decide how the other family gets to spend $50,000!
I want to see what another mother could bring to my household-- and my children.

Something tells me that if you are selected you will be chosen to stay in a mobile home and your new family will want you to get a tatoo.(No offense to mobile home owners. When my wife and I were first married we lived in a mobile home.)
Seriously, good luck and I really hope you are selected.

Another tatoo??
LOL!
Just kidding!
Some of these questions!
They want to know how often we "spank and/or beat our children"
I want to write: "not often enough!"
They are very careful about people with prejudices and the like-- I am happy to see that!
It usually seems (to me) that the show has a "snooty" mom and an "earthy" mom trade. The children of the snooty mom are snotty little nightmares and the earthy mom's kids are friendly, but dont like rules.
I have already decided that if we are able to participate on the show that my children (and husband) will NOT come across as brats and fools on national TV. I will threaten those kids from here to eternity that they will go along (with good manners and better grace) with whatever the new mom wants them to without complaint-- unless it will leave a mark on their body or land anyone in the klink. If she makes them hamburger helper or spam they are to eat it, smiling the entire time and pretend to be delighted with it! If she shows up in sweat pants they are to compliment her and treat her as the enchantress she is.
A recent episode has a vegan switching places with a La. bayou mom. La. bayou family has a really manly alligator hunting tatooed muscle man dad who speaks cajun French and eats frog legs. Vegan family dad is an easily scandalized deep sea diver who does just what his (usual) wife tells him to. Although I can certainly admire obediance in a man-- give me the tatooed cajun anyday. I Like the idea of keeping company with any man who can overpower an alligator....
Of course Thayne might like the idea of a 2 week wife who doesn't go back to bed after he leaves for work--one who would allow him to have the television on at meals times and not spend a good deal of her time attemting to bewitch every man within a 20 mile radius of her.
LOL!
