The story
Bob and Cindy Russell relocate from Indianapolis to the Chicago suburbs with their three children: rebellious teenager Tia, talkative eight-year-old Miles, and six-year-old Maizy.
Unable to find a suitable babysitter, they reluctantly leave the children in the care of Bob's irresponsible brother, Buck.
As Buck adjusts to suburban life, he struggles with domestic responsibilities but makes genuine efforts to care for the children.
