Rosie's life growing up also meant time in rehab. But the rehab wasn't for host Rosie Waterland's, it was for her Mum. Rehab for adults with children also mean that families can stay living together at a rehab facility while the adults get the treatment they need. Time spent at one particular rehab facility turned Rosie's life upside down though when she suddenly became cool. Rosie and Lisa finally talk through the rehab experience and what it was like from both their points of view. Why did Lisa start drinking again as soon as they left rehab? Why was rehab a constant in their lives? And what was the turning point that made Lisa re-think how she was going to live her life?

Chapter 6: you will be in rehab several times before you're ten years old

In 2015, Rosie Waterland published her first book, a memoir called "The Anti-Cool Girl".  The book is about her childhood, her growing up, and her becoming an adult;  all with mentally ill, drug and alcohol addicted parents, child protection, foster care, caravans and couches.  There were crazy and very difficult times but also some funny times too.  Rosie is 30 now, her mum Lisa is now 53.  Since the book came out, the one question Rosie is always asked is more than any other is, "Has your Mum read the book?"

Lisa hadn't read it for a while, because her drinking was so bad that she physically or emotionally couldn't.  But in 2016, Lisa got sober.  She has maintained that sobriety for the longest period Rosie has ever seen and.. she has finally read the book.  She has many thoughts.

The first of which is that most of Rosie's memoir is a lie. 

 Now is their time to talk all about it.  In each episode Rosie reads a chapter from the book, and then Rosie and Lisa talk through it - is it all true or false?  What really happened?  Each chapter becomes a real conversation about the past, present and future for Rosie and Lisa.
