The BBC are coming to Gaborone in the New Year to make a programme about parenting and families.

2 teenagers from the UK will be coming for 1 week in March to stay with a local family and we need your help!
We have a crisis of parenting in the UK where children have no respect for their elders, no disclipine and lack the boundaries of a traditional family environment.
So, we want to give them the experience of living with a strict, traditional family In Botswana which will hopefully have a life changing effect on them

They will be contributing members of the household, not guests! They will do chores, go to school and behave as you would expect your own children to.
This is the second series of a very successful programme for the BBC and last year we sent children to Ghana, Jamaica, India, South Africa and America.

We are looking for professional, middle class strict families to host our teenagers and we want to show Botswana to be an aspirational place to live and an excellent role model for parenting all over the world.

If you would like to host the children, you should have at least one teenager living at home.
Please email host@twentytwenty.tv
