Can these families be saved before it’s too late? In this emotional documentary, we sit down with two families at their breaking point. First, 22-year-old Stephanie makes a desperate plea to her mother, Maxine, whose history with alcohol and toxic relationships has left her 6 and 8-year-old children "ruling the house." With discipline replaced by chaos, can Maxine find the strength to be a mother again? Then, we meet Nicola and Tony, a couple buried under £31,000 of debt. In a heartbreaking cycle of "buying love" through catalogs and loans, they’ve lost sight of what their five children actually need. When their 8-year-old son, Lee, admits he hides holes in his shoes because he knows there’s no money, the reality of their "materialistic" parenting hits home.
