On this show, we will deal with the multiple child-multiple situation that is prevalent today.

When you have multiple children by different parents, one of the most difficult things to deal with is managing the kids who have their other parent in their lives vs those who don't have theirs in their lives. It's really tough because, as a parent, you want to show your kids as much love as possible and to be able to raise them to be well adjusted. You want them to know that they are loved and appreciated and you want them to know that thye are special in a good way. It's harder to do that when you have to answer their questions about why the other parent isn't in their life. It gets really hard around the holidays when you have to explain why some of your kids can go to their other family's houses and functions and some can't. Why they don't have gifts coming form that side of the family. 

When the parent of one or some of the kids come around and take them to special places, it makes the kids who don't have the other parent around feel left out. It also puts the child who does have both active parents in a compromising position where, if they love and care for their siblings, they don't want to see them be left out, or feel bad. It's a tough situation for everyone.

As you can see, this is much bigger than a bunch of judging haters talking smack about who you have been with and speculating on your sexual history as if they know anything about it
