   that Essex family is / was abusing their children. I can't believe they just filmed that and didn't step in at all or call child protective services. Horrendous. You really can't pick your parents. Their IQ must be really low, even lower than the other parents on the show.

    What a depressing end to this series. 2 of the families have made no progress and those poor children have no hope. Jamie's Mum has done so well, so it's really upsetting to read the other comments that he's now in jail anyway. Does anyone know what has happened to any of the other kids?

    Amanda & Lee are the worst parents ever!!! I wouldn't be surprised on bit if these kids become the next mass shooters or school shooters when they get older, or one of those people who run down pedestrians on the sidewalk in a shopping mall!!! They will definitely grow up and treat their kids the exact same way no doubt, it is an ending cycle of abuse!

    Just an idea change their diet they could have gluten or wheat issues. I believe bending over a checkered aprin would be in order if you're from the 80's you know what I'm talking about. The parents need help.

    Omg Jamie’s son just seems not ok!? What is going on? Slicing his throat like he’s going to kill somebody? At that age? Just doesn’t even seem right to me.

    Poor little girl. Josie I think. I haven’t even seen this little girl. And now she’s getting blamed for the red headed kids bad attitude. Not fair or cool at all. Poor thing.

    Christine did the best. Her child was definitely heading towards Borstal. The swearing, shouting couples needed temper management. Also who puts children to bed without sheets on the mattress? No wonder they didn’t want to go to bed. Some of the parents clearly had low IQ’s
