On Season 6 of Outdaughtered, in the episode “Not So Quiet Riot,” mother of six daughters Danielle Busby is pushed to the limit. Her biggest parenting challenge at the moment is putting an end to naps for the quintuplets.
The decision came after learning that Riley, who moved up to Pre-K is the only one in her class who still takes naps. Danielle and her husband Adam decide it’s time for all the quints to give up naps, too. Easier said than done!
Danielle says all the disciplining she’s been dishing out during “quiet time” makes her “feel like a bad mom.”
Her children mean the world to her so when she says “I’m becoming the mean mom, and I absolutely hate it,” she’s clearly upset and bursts into tears. “Why does it have to be that hard?” she asks.
Outdaughtered airs Tuesdays at 8 pm on TLC, right before Jill and Jess: Counting On at 9 pm. [BONUS: TLC GO App found here lets you stream any TLC show. Download is FREE.]
