**This show includes references to suicide**

This is Scott Shillum. Dad of 2. Exceptional talent in the world of media. On the face of it everything looks pretty normal. Then you dig deeper and realise the heartache and subsequent steel this dad has acquired as he recovered from losing his twin brother, Dan, to suicide.

You know what's funny? How quickly society judges people who have lots of children.

When you tell someone you have 7 kids, their eyes widen, their breath intake becomes sharp. It's usually followed by some comment about how mad or how crazy you are - or even how inept they would be in your position.

Scott Mair - 7 boys in with his incredible wife - is changing the conversation around having kids. He's dispelling some of the age-old cliches on parenting and leading with empathy and deep thought to create an environment that fosters the most incredible relationship with his boys.

We should probably mention that they're all home-schooled at this point.

This is Scott's story. Anything other than conventional.

It's the news that no family wants to receive.

From travelling the world without a care in the world to impending personal crisis. It's a sobering story of adversity lurking around the corner.

This is the incredible story told by Jon Stanners, a young dad, and his wife, Laura, who managed to not only beat cancer, but remained totally positive throughout the process.
