A Peaceful Drive? — John Ross

The Binner family lives on Peaceful Drive. They are about to get an au pere girl from England to care for their two children, Carrie, 5, and Eddie, 7. John Binner is an engineer with a propensity for using expletives, which the children naturally quickly learn and randomly apply. Cindy Binner is the glue that holds the family together, and Richard Binner is an occasional visitor and John's younger unmarried brother.
