    If you dig up all the information about the two parents and how they raise their children, the child protection authorities should take the kids out of that home. Take a look at the "swapping wives" episode and you can see strange Richard and Mayumi really are.

    Lol no kidding Hawkeye, I remembered that family from seeing that show and I already knew the husband was a freak. Richards one of those loud, brash, chauvanistic wankers. Too bad I live in the same state as him lol. Its been the only thing on the local news for the past 2 days. Now they're dissecting his family to death.

    The incident was as simple as a young boy hiding out, which is pretty normal, but of course the parent's should have looked harder.

    These wife swap episodes are on Youtube. While these parents are freaks, the other families on the show are worse freaks, and so are the producers (and the voyeurs who like reality TV).

    This couple are certifiable nutjobs. They both need to be better at acting if they expect to pull off this hoax. They should be charged for the cost of the rescue operation.

    transcripts here.What a pair of nutters.What I find very amusing is that the Japanese media is usually at great pains to point out the Japaneseness of anyone overseas that does anything of note,yet the Japanese TV didn't mention ONCE that Mayumi is Japanese.Must be embarrassed?

    yet the Japanese TV didn't mention ONCE that Mayumi is Japanese.

    Isn't kind of like saying they didn't mention once who is buried in Grant's tomb?
