AMERICA’S
NEWEST HIT PARENTING SERIES
IS LOOKING FOR FAMILIES
No-nonsense moms and dads encouraged to apply immediately!
The casting team will be in
Middle Tennessee the week after Labor Day, 2010!
Los Angeles, CA – The producers of parenting phenomenon THE WORLD’S STRICTEST PARENTS on CMT are now searching for families to host a rebellious teenager for a few days.
CMT documents the journey of two unruly teens from different families as they are forced to adapt to the rules and regulations of very strict host parents. Living under different standards from their families back home, the misbehaving teens are subject to punishment for breaking rules and skipping chores while the strict parents help them mend their ways.

The casting team is searching the United States to find the best parents in the country from every type of background and culture to take part in a social experiment exploring the world of the 21st century teenager matched against contemporary, tried-and-true parenting styles. Producers are seeking parents with unique interests; parents with strong family values; conservatives; farmers; parents with devout religious beliefs; academics; eco-friendly parents; and parents who have ordinary or extraordinary circumstances.
Moms and dads, if you are proud of your firm family structure, have well behaved kids, and want to show off your unflinching strict parenting skills, the casting team would like to hear from you. This is an opportunity to show other families how to raise their children the right way.
Interested parents may apply from anywhere via www.theworldsstrictestparents.com. They can also call 888-41-TEENS (1-888-418-3367) or email chazel@shedmediaus.com for more information.
