Like many post-divorce families, Roloff offspring Zach, Molly Jo and Jake spend time in the new season trying to figure out how to keep the family peace when wanting to do group gatherings where both Matt and Amy could potentially be involved. In this week’s episode, for example, the kids want to cheer up Matt, who is down in the dumps now that he is mostly immobile post-surgery. Will a game night boost his spirits? Should the kids invite Amy, who is trying to start her new single life?

Check out the clip where the kids talk over their new normal as their parents embark on the next chapters in their respective lives.
