Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Most reviewers were unhappy with their experience overall. Customers express dissatisfaction with subscriptions, citing unexpected charges and difficulty in canceling. Many consumers report being charged for subscriptions they did not authorize, often after an initial trial period or a one-off purchase. People also report issues with contacting the company, mentioning that contact links do not work or that they receive generic, unhelpful responses. The topic of refunds is a sore point for many, with reviewers claiming that they were denied refunds even when they canceled promptly. The sentiment around the app is mixed, with a lack of consensus among users.

I initially purchased the 28 days challenge as a one time purchase.
While proceeding to check out there was a dozen of offers to make you buy more - I skipped all of them. After 30 days I was suddenly charged £46.40. This charge wasn't authorised by me as I didn't sign up for any subscription.

Customer service pastes automatic responses which don't answer my refund request.

This company is a complete scam and steals your money

This company is a complete scam and it is very unfortunate that they are taking advantage of desperate parents seeking help.

I signed up for the 28-day challenge. I wasn't notified at the time of sign up that this was a subscription with a reoccurring monthly charge. The next month, I was randomly charged $32. I immediately emailed to cancel my subscription, which they did, but refused to refund me or even address the reason for the charge in the email. I sent over 10-15 emails back and forth with customer support asking the reason for my charges, why I wasn't being refunded and even began to receive rude responses and sarcastic emails back. I then searched the web and saw so many similar experiences. Extremely unprofessional and have no idea how customer service works.

This is a complete scam of a company. PLEASE DO NOT provide them with any credit card information. They will continue charging it and not refund you until you cancel your card.

Just another confirmation that this is a SCAM!!

I signed up for ONE month in December 2024. Yet today I was charged for a subscription. When I reached out to let them know about this error, they told me they can only refund me if I prove I used their product for 5 days. So something I did NOT want and did NOT authorize is now my fault because I have no intention of using something I didn’t purchase.

They have now stopped responding to my e-mails.

I can’t believe how many people they appear to be doing this to.

Sudden fraudulent charge on my PayPal account

I don’t even remember looking into this company until I suddenly had a $56 charge on PayPal. It turns out they got my information somehow over a year and a half ago (I’m guessing I clicked on a free parenting quiz on a Facebook link?). No idea why I suddenly got charged now. I ended up having to cancel my credit card just to be sure. I wouldn’t trust this company at all.

BEWARE and STAY AWAY

I signed up and paid for a 28 day challenge. After that, I was charged an obscene amount for a product I did not order or consent to, nor do I know what that charge was for. When I immediately disputed it, they said they could offer me 50% off out of “goodwill”. The challenge itself was mediocre at best and only skimmed the surface of ADHD offering very little in ways of tools or research. Very disappointed by this company preying on families who are going through parenting struggles.

Read this before deciding on this company!

This is the email I just opened from this company, because I had delayed in deciding whether to invest in an online course which I had found via face book click-bait ad
'This is a business decision, not an emotional appeal.
The $50 discount ends in 48 hours. Whether you use it or not.
I can't keep prices artificially low while you decide if your children's emotional safety is worth investing in.’
I find the tone insulting, accusatory, unethical.

Emotionally manipulative marketing

Completed the initial questionnaire but didn't sign up because I didn't like the pricing. They then sent me upwards of 5 marketing emails a day, pushing me to sign up. One highly emotionally exploitative email said that if I didn't sign up, my child would be in counselling in 20 years and would be saying that I was prone to emotional outbursts and my child "never felt emotionally safe". How absurd! Pathetic.
