Did you notice the adverts during this programme!!! Don't fast forward OlsBean - I think this is part of the problem! Just watched it on 4D LouisaBEE!

I think their general attitudes were symptomatic of a bigger whole. The one who got up too late to take the child to the dentist just didn't seem to care. Another 10 minutes in bed was too important.
