We’ve long been a breeding ground for reality-TV stars, and Kansas City has plenty of parents who might really test the Supernanny’s powers. Here’s our own casting call.

• Daniel Porter: He might have a hard time making the audition because he’s serving a sentence for kidnapping his children. Maybe Frost could help him remember where he put the kids.

• Mary Ellmaker: She allowed her unstable son, Andrew, access to a machete and a chainsaw; he subsequently killed social worker Teri Zenner while she was making a house call. Now that Andrew has been convicted of first-degree murder and aggrivated battery, Frost will need to help Mary teach him how to appropriately interact with his new brothers in jumpsuits.

• Kris and Sarah Everson: This Grandview couple admitted in April 2006 that Sarah’s sextuplet pregnancy was a hoax. Perhaps they need some help raising six figments of their imagination.

• The mother of the kid who danced in the Union Station sand painting. In May, her little runt ruined a mandala that Tibetan monks had spent two days creating. His mother grabbed him and fled the scene. We don’t know who you are, lady, but there was video surveillance footage. Frost should find you and impose some serious arts-and-crafts time.

• Rita Valenciano: Before Valenciano announced she was running for a 4th District at-large seat on the Kansas City, Missouri, City Council, her son -- ranty blogger Tony Botello – said mean things about her opponent, Beth Gottstein, on TonysKansasCity.com. "My son blogs about a lot of stuff, and he's too big for me to spank and send to his room if I disagree with it," Valenciano later told the Pitch. Perhaps Frost could do the job. But anyone who reads Botello knows he might like that. – Ben Paynter
