Shalom In The Home

[shalom]

Shalom in the Home is a weekly, one-hour prime-time program on The Learning Channel that helps families overcome their thorniest problems. The program is hosted by Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, an Oxford-trained theologian and philosopher who’s written more than a dozen books on relationships and families and counseled thousands of people through difficulties with marriage, parenting, sex and self-worth. The hallmark of the series is Shmuley’s insight into relationships, marriage and parenting. In each episode he takes one family on an intensive 10-day journey. Using a battery of exercises and technologies, he helps them come to terms with their problems and find the skills and resolve they need to improve things at home. His philosophy is that there is no such thing as bad children. Rather, adults need help to be better individuals, spouses and parents. Basically, when kids act up, maybe it’s time for the parents to look in the mirror. The first season was such a success that Shmuley was recently invited to share his knowledge on The Oprah Winfrey Show, and now Shalom in the Home is beginning its second season. We are currently looking for families who are struggling with one of the following issues:



Difficult relationships with in-laws

A child who constantly bullies other children

Interfaith couples approaching their wedding day

A family who has just had a member returned to it from the war in Iraq

Tension between a father and his teenage daughter

Over-involved/over-scheduled children

Protective parents and their children who can't understand it

Mother with an infidelity issue from the past

Group of roommates who keep each other from finding love

Families who home-school their children
