Synopsis
This comedy-drama, based on the Gilbreth-Carey novel, presents episodes from the life of the Gilbreth family in the early twenties. Much of the story focuses on the father of the 12-children. He is prissy and obsessed with time. His wife, a psychologist, is always trying to get him to relax. Meanwhile, the children deal with the changing times and their old fashioned dad. Despite their differences, the family remains close-knit even after tragedy strikes.
