What Parents Need to Know
About Perfect Housewives
Parents need to know that this series includes lots of useful tips for cleaning and organizing your house. The hostess often puts down her students' lack of housekeeping skills, but the tone is light overall, and she always seems to chuckle alongside her exasperation. The series' competition aspect is downplayed; the focus is on making life-changing strategies at home. While selling tweens and teens on a series like this one could be difficult, those who tune in might get tips for organizing their own belongings.
