The Bill Engvall Show is a family sitcom that originally aired on TBS from July 2007 to September 2009. The show follows the life of Bill Pearson, a family counselor and father of three, as he navigates life with his wife Susan and their children Lauren, Trent, and Bryan.

In season 2 episode 2, titled "Ask Your Mother," the Pearson family is gearing up for a garage sale to clear out some clutter in their home. While Susan is busy coordinating the sale, Bill is left in charge of the kids, who are all preoccupied with their own issues.

Lauren, the eldest of the Pearson children, is struggling to choose a college to attend. She's been accepted to several schools, but is torn between staying close to home to be with her boyfriend or venturing out to pursue her dreams.

Meanwhile, Trent, the middle child, is dealing with a broken heart after being rejected by his crush. He seeks advice from his dad and older sister, but they're both preoccupied with their own problems.

Finally, Bryan, the youngest of the Pearson kids, is trying to convince his parents to let him attend a sleepover with his best friend. However, Bill and Susan are hesitant to let him go, as they don't know the parents very well and are worried about his safety.

Throughout the episode, Bill tries to juggle all of these issues while also dealing with an injury he sustained during a karate class. He turns to his own mother for advice, but quickly realizes that Susan is the only one who can handle all of these familial issues.

"Ask Your Mother" highlights the challenges that come with raising a family and balancing individual needs and wants. It's a relatable episode for anyone who has struggled with decision-making in a large family, and reminds viewers of the importance of communication and compromise.
