Synopsis
Life with Boys follows 14-year-old Tess Foster (Torri Webster) as she navigates her way through the turmoil of teen life while living at home with her single, overprotective dad and three brothers.
Like most teenage girls, Tess has to juggle school, friends and of course, boys. But we're not talking boyfriends or crushes; we're talking about the tornado of testosterone that plows through her life on a daily basis.
Although Tess adores the four important men in her life, they do have four totally different perspectives. Despite the shortcomings of being the only girl in a male household, the boys can sometimes offer solid advice.
Whether it's building up the courage to talk to a boy, dealing with an obnoxious one, or coping with the repercussions of being the only girl on the boys' wrestling team, Life with Boys sheds a comedic light on many of life's difficult moments.
