Island Punch smoothie which has a peach and

00:00:10,599 --> 00:00:14,640
guava, passion fruit, mango and
pineapple. That was my favorite when I

4
00:00:14,759 --> 00:00:19,120
had it, it was delicious.

00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,719
watermelon, mint, strawberries and lime. Yep. And they also have uh,

6
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:26,839

00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:31,760
So visit when a Tropical Smoothie Cafe

8
00:00:31,839 --> 00:00:38,000

9
00:00:38,119 --> 00:00:48,159
a decision. I'll face sunny sunord
on. I had a vision night,

10
00:00:51,759 --> 00:00:57,399
So what's up everybody? Welcome to
for crying out. Hello, Happy Friday,

11
00:00:57,479 --> 00:01:03,840
Happy Friday. It's Friday. Yy. This brings me back to old

12
00:01:03,959 --> 00:01:11,519
old episodes. Yes, where that
literal Friday? It's Friday. It was

13
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:15,040
popular. We're making fun of it. Yep, Frida, it's the weekend.

14
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:22,280
Uh. You know. I sometimes
when I leave Phil alone, I'll

15
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,920
put the TV on so that he
feels like he's got company and I don't

16
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,799
know if you've seen this on Netflix. They have the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders.

17
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:34,879
I cannot wait to watch this.
It's so good. Everyone's saying how good

18
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:40,599
it is. It's so good,
And so I left it for Phil to

19
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:44,480
watch because it just goes to the
next episode, next episode. But yeah,

20
00:01:44,519 --> 00:01:46,599
I watched it. You haven't seen
it yet. It's well, Phil

21
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,280
loves like hot ladies, that's what
I thought. Yeah, I thought,

22
00:01:49,439 --> 00:01:51,439
you know, us a lot of
pom poms, a lot of things to

23
00:01:51,519 --> 00:01:55,439
love. Phil loves like American Idol. So Phil loves those kind of reality

24
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,640
shows where people get eliminated. Yeah, he prefers like the competition type shows.

25
00:01:59,719 --> 00:02:04,359
Yeah. Yeah, it's really good. It's really good. It's so

26
00:02:04,519 --> 00:02:08,599
good that I looked up because they
would show like flashbacks of when somebody got

27
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:13,560
cut, and I was like,
what, why is there flash I thought,

28
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,439
you know, so then I looked
it up. It's they have twelve

29
00:02:15,479 --> 00:02:20,879
seasons of the show. What,
yes, they just go from year to

30
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,199
year of tryouts, and well,
how did it just suddenly get popular now

31
00:02:24,319 --> 00:02:29,840
because it's on the Netflix. I
don't understand. I mean, I guess

32
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,360
what they did is they did because
I looked at the TV show version and

33
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:38,000
it's like cheesy and they don't play
the music like on the Netflix version.

34
00:02:38,039 --> 00:02:44,599
You hear the ACDC Thunderstrike song,
Thunderstruck song, and like on the shell,

35
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,879
you know, it's all like,
you know, just fake music,

36
00:02:47,039 --> 00:02:53,479
you know, like maybe some real
songs, you know, but nothing good.

37
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,960
So anyway, and it wasn't shot
the way it's shot it was.

38
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:01,199
This Netflix version is completely different.
It's so different. It shot really well,

39
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:07,039
like a documentary style with the real
music, you know, and it's

40
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,680
it's really good. And they show, you know, veteran like the women

41
00:03:09,719 --> 00:03:15,159
from the year before still have to
try out. They have like you know,

42
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:20,080
hundreds of people try out or whatever. Then once they even make it

43
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,919
to training camp, the training camps
like two months long, eight weeks and

44
00:03:24,439 --> 00:03:30,360
they still can still cut you.
You could even get fitted in your uniform,

45
00:03:30,759 --> 00:03:34,520
get your boots fitted for your foot, and they still cut you.

46
00:03:34,879 --> 00:03:38,439
They can still cut you. Well, do you remember, I mean in

47
00:03:38,479 --> 00:03:42,039
the eighties, I think it was
the eighties, there was that making of

48
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,759
the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders. There was
that they there was they had a show

49
00:03:45,879 --> 00:03:47,759
or it was a special or it
was I don't remember, but it was

50
00:03:47,759 --> 00:03:52,400
super popular. Yes, and they
talked a lot about the weight, like

51
00:03:52,479 --> 00:03:53,759
their weight, they had to be
a certain weight. I'm sure they don't

52
00:03:53,759 --> 00:03:59,280
do that anymore. No, No, I mean I don't remember them saying

53
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,159
anything in that, Like if you're
working out the way these women are doing.

54
00:04:03,199 --> 00:04:06,840
I mean they're going, going,
going every single day, just long

55
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:11,919
hours. And they have real jobs
too. One of them is a uh,

56
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,360
you know, a dentist during the
day, yes, and then they

57
00:04:15,519 --> 00:04:19,839
they go and you know, do
rehearsals and tryouts at night. So you

58
00:04:19,879 --> 00:04:25,040
know, they they have jobs,
but they have to because they don't get

59
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,639
paid very much, right, right, right, they don't get paid very

60
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,480
much. But yeah, so it's
it's really good. It's interesting. I

61
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,839
want to start that today. Yeah, it's good. Highly recommend it.

62
00:04:34,079 --> 00:04:41,480
I really like low brow TV.
I know, I like it. I

63
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,319
like both. I was like,
oh, I finally watched Presume Innocent.

64
00:04:46,319 --> 00:04:48,720
Did you have seen it? I
don't think so. You haven't seen it

65
00:04:48,759 --> 00:04:54,959
with Jake Jillenhall. No, I
so good. Okay, is it a

66
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:59,519
movie TV show? It's the TV
shows, Like I think it's six or

67
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:03,959
eight episod there's already like five almost
six episodes out. I gotta start.

68
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:10,279
I gotta write this down. Jesus
all right, presumed, and I said,

69
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,240
yes, Caitlin, you were watching
it, weren't you. I watched

70
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,720
one. No, I watched about
like twenty minutes of the first episode,

71
00:05:17,439 --> 00:05:21,040
and you didn't like it. Amy
really wants to watch it. It's good,

72
00:05:21,079 --> 00:05:25,319
so I don't want to watch it
without her, And yeah, I

73
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,480
wasn't super. I have plenty of
other things to watch at the moment,

74
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,879
so it's not sci fi for him. Yeah, it's good. It's really

75
00:05:30,879 --> 00:05:36,519
good. So the other day,
yesterday, I had some people over to

76
00:05:38,639 --> 00:05:43,759
write postcards political, you know,
to get out the vote yet because I'm

77
00:05:43,759 --> 00:05:47,079
a really good person and want people
to have voting rights. So I had

78
00:05:47,079 --> 00:05:51,480
some people over and they were more
intellectual than me. Let's just say,

79
00:05:51,519 --> 00:05:56,120
they're talking about shows, and I
just was wishing to be like sitting with

80
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:59,680
you guys, because they kept saying
shows that they were like, ah,

81
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,800
the Sympathizer, have you seen that
show? And I was like turning the

82
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:08,720
war, but there was I'm sure
The Sympathizer is a good show. They

83
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,079
were just like harder shows. And
then even one of them was like she

84
00:06:12,199 --> 00:06:15,439
was like, you got to watch
the show. It's a British show.

85
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,879
And I'm like, I'm out,
you know, but it was it sounded

86
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,800
good. It was about dog shows, but it was like a British show,

87
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:26,199
and I'm like and then and then
she's like, I mean they do

88
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:30,279
all those shows better, like the
British Baby or whatever, like, yeah,

89
00:06:30,319 --> 00:06:34,360
they do. I like the like
BBC channels stuff like some movies and

90
00:06:34,399 --> 00:06:40,720
stuff TV shows that have come out. But I'm like presumed innocent. I'm

91
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,120
like Jake Jillenhall, Yes, okay, you already got me. I'm in

92
00:06:44,199 --> 00:06:46,560
on that. You know. It's
like reading books. It's like, you

93
00:06:46,879 --> 00:06:51,519
know, there's it's historical fiction.
No thanks, you know, I'm like

94
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:55,879
you that sounds up my alley,
the Carolyn Kepness book. You know.

95
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,600
I'm like, oh, there's a
murder, yes please, But like reality,

96
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:06,800
yes, historical fiction, there's no
cell phones, no thanks. I'm

97
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:14,399
sorry, I'm not I'm not no
real weight. You're saying there's no Real

98
00:07:14,439 --> 00:07:20,240
Housewives in it. If he's not
hosting the reunion of it, I know.

99
00:07:20,279 --> 00:07:24,759
And then I feel bad and I'm
like I need to widen my horizons.

100
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,639
But you know, there's so much
competition for our attention these days that

101
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,240
if I start watching something, I
will forget about it right away. Yeah.

102
00:07:32,959 --> 00:07:38,480
Yeah, something that John and I
were Oh, what's that one that

103
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:45,560
was with the Madmen era? And
it was with I want to say somebody

104
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:46,920
from Saturday Night, Like, okay, now I'm going to forget a TV

105
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:51,519
show or a movie. It was. It was a streaming show called and

106
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:56,800
it took place it was like Vegas
in the seventies, I want to say

107
00:07:56,839 --> 00:08:00,959
her sixties. It's like felt like
very mad Men. And it was supposed

108
00:08:00,959 --> 00:08:03,279
to be funny. I was supposed
to be funny. You know what.

109
00:08:03,639 --> 00:08:07,199
You might have to edit this out
because I'm gonna have to ask John what

110
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,120
it was. But anyway, okay, John and I were both it was

111
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,560
at the Postcards thing and they're like, oh, did you see such and

112
00:08:13,639 --> 00:08:16,800
such a show? And John and
I were both like, yeah, we

113
00:08:16,839 --> 00:08:20,160
watched an episode of it, and
then I lost interest in episode. Even

114
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,240
though it's supposed to be buess in
the seventies, I would be into.

115
00:08:24,079 --> 00:08:31,519
Yeah. It was with name some
female people from SNL that are not on

116
00:08:31,639 --> 00:08:33,080
anymore that were the biggest, the
biggest, No, no, no,

117
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:37,120
the biggest ones from recent Yeah,
oh my god, you might have to.

118
00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:39,919
Oh, I know what you're talking
about on Apple TV. Yes,

119
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:48,440
and it's the She's from Bridesmaid Her
Yes, yes, Royale something Royale that

120
00:08:48,799 --> 00:08:54,399
Yeah, no it but I could
see the yes, yeah it is.

121
00:08:56,120 --> 00:09:00,759
Yeah, a lot of people screaming
at what's her name? But what so?

122
00:09:00,879 --> 00:09:09,120
What's her name? Hellen knows the
owner? Why can't I think of

123
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,159
her name? What is wrong with
my brain? I love her and I

124
00:09:13,159 --> 00:09:16,679
didn't even realize, like because I
never really watched Their Night Live that when

125
00:09:16,799 --> 00:09:20,639
I mean when the movie first came
out, Like, yeah, I I

126
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,559
never watched it. I just watched
Preston Kristen Weston Wig. Yeah. Yeah,

127
00:09:24,759 --> 00:09:28,200
she's so you think it has a
lot of things that would make us

128
00:09:28,519 --> 00:09:33,320
like that show, but I couldn't
get into it. Oh you didn't like

129
00:09:33,399 --> 00:09:35,759
it? Did you watch the whole
thing? No? I never watched it.

130
00:09:35,919 --> 00:09:39,559
Oh I was gonna watch it,
but no, I just didn't.

131
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,639
I was just like on board,
but we liked White House Plumbers. Yes,

132
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,600
that was good. I like history
stuff. If they it needs to

133
00:09:46,639 --> 00:09:50,399
be really dramatized and kind of dumbed
down for me. Yeah, so that

134
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:54,799
I can get it like I like
learn, like I like a podcast that's

135
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,279
you know where you learned? Right? Yeah, but it just can't.

136
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,960
It can't be like medicine. It
has to make it fun and interesting.

137
00:10:03,039 --> 00:10:07,519
I agree. I don't know as
opposed to other people that like, no,

138
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,759
I only like stuff that's real,
boring, real dry, like just

139
00:10:11,879 --> 00:10:16,399
not acted, just like droning on, like those old films that you'd watch

140
00:10:16,399 --> 00:10:22,159
in school, remember when into high
school, in junior high they would have

141
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,559
You would think you're getting excited because
they're gonna be showing us a film,

142
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:31,200
yes, and then it would just
be so the rocks that are that reside

143
00:10:31,279 --> 00:10:35,039
in the Sahara Desert are made of
three layers of and you'd be like,

144
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:39,240
oh, he's supposed to stay awake
doing that. All kids supposed to stay

145
00:10:39,279 --> 00:10:43,600
awake. They're tired, last thing
when them. I know, my science

146
00:10:43,639 --> 00:10:48,480
teacher used to shows films all the
time. Everybody like as soon it was

147
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,639
over, like everybody had their head
down asleep, drooling asleep, and he

148
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:56,360
would just not pay attention to anybody
sleep and you just get up and start

149
00:10:56,399 --> 00:11:01,080
talking. And science teachers were always
like one. When I was growing up,

150
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:05,960
I could picture my His name was
Oscar at my Magnet school, and

151
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:09,360
he just looked like this crazy science
guy and he just never paid it to

152
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:13,440
Everybody would just go to his class
to sleep, and he didn't care.

153
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,240
You would just talk. Everybody's head
would be down, one person might be

154
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:22,440
up listening, and he would just
continue talking. But yeah, so my

155
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:28,200
kids bio class ninth grade. Bio
was impossible. And he would make these

156
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:33,639
videos himself. He was like doing
a big favor to the class. He

157
00:11:33,639 --> 00:11:37,879
would make these videos and they were
so boring, and I would try to

158
00:11:37,919 --> 00:11:41,039
help the kids. They would dread
it every time, and they would have

159
00:11:41,159 --> 00:11:43,919
a bunch of them throughout the week
and they'd be like thirty minutes and then

160
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,879
he would stop them in the middle, like he'd give you, you know,

161
00:11:48,039 --> 00:11:50,120
Okay, we're going to talk about
the different tundra. I don't know

162
00:11:50,159 --> 00:11:54,000
the different you know, there's seven
different I don't know what they are,

163
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:58,279
but something's like the tundra. There's
like the frozen tundra, and then there's

164
00:11:58,279 --> 00:12:03,720
like the desert. What do you
call the ecosystems whatever. Anyway, they'd

165
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,240
be like, okay, now we're
going to talk about the frozen tundra.

166
00:12:05,279 --> 00:12:09,639
And then it would be like the
one of the qualities of the frozen tundra,

167
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,639
and I'm like, and Xander's like, mom, you got to help

168
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:18,440
me with this, and then you
would stop it and go is the frozen

169
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,279
tundra? And then there'd be a
multiple choice question and half the time I'm

170
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,240
like, I don't fucking know.
But even though I was, even if

171
00:12:26,279 --> 00:12:28,639
I was paying attention, sometimes the
answer wouldn't have even been there. Yeah

172
00:12:30,039 --> 00:12:33,080
yeah, And it was like a
trick question, right, come on,

173
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:39,919
come on, I know. I'm
just saying it's not even googleable, like

174
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:45,519
it was terrible over with, like
done, yeah, done, no more

175
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:50,320
homework with the homework. And then
also now I'm getting like, but now

176
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:54,879
I'm sad because I'm getting like emails
from the school, like you know,

177
00:12:54,879 --> 00:12:58,759
just like little text here and there
about summer programs and stuff. And I'm

178
00:12:58,799 --> 00:13:03,039
like, and I was with Suzanne
over the weekend her daughter's the same age

179
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,639
as my kids, and she's like, oh, you just got to unsubscribe,

180
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,440
and I'm like, I don't know
if I want to unsubscribe, Like

181
00:13:09,519 --> 00:13:13,000
it's sad. They still get emails
about Natalia's volleyball career and stuff. And

182
00:13:13,039 --> 00:13:18,120
I'm like, yeah, that ship
sailed. She doesn't ever want to play

183
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:24,639
volleyball again. No, she she
did it up until uh basically half of

184
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,519
eight eleventh grade, and then it
was done and she didn't want to do

185
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:33,320
it anymore. But like at Santa
Barbara, they probably have what do you

186
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:39,120
call it when there's sports within like
just within the school intramural and maybe I

187
00:13:39,159 --> 00:13:45,080
guess sports. Yes, she's not
as competitive as you're not on the she

188
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,159
would consider that. Yeah, I
think she would, because I do think

189
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:56,919
she likes the athletic you know,
she she loves being busy doing things like

190
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:01,720
working during different types of workouts and
exercise. She loves that, So I

191
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,120
think maybe she would. I think
she would do that, but I don't

192
00:14:05,159 --> 00:14:07,879
know. But she wasn't. I
really was bummed that she didn't want to

193
00:14:07,879 --> 00:14:11,960
do senior year. She just was
done and then her travel program, like

194
00:14:13,039 --> 00:14:16,759
all her friends were done. They
all left or they just stayed and just

195
00:14:16,759 --> 00:14:20,080
did their school team and didn't so
like a lot of people were. I

196
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,519
guess it's like that in a lot
of the sports in high school, like

197
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,919
they start to peter out eleventh and
twelfth unless they want to go and continue

198
00:14:26,919 --> 00:14:35,039
it into their college years. So
it just seems really hard to continue it

199
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,360
through college. That's got to take
up a lot of your time. And

200
00:14:37,919 --> 00:14:41,360
I feel like college is the time
where you want to just start exploring all

201
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:45,679
the other things you're interested in.
That's what she was saying. And like

202
00:14:46,639 --> 00:14:50,159
some of the girls on her college
on her high school volleyball team, they

203
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:54,360
already left for college because they're already
in pat practice for volleyball at their school,

204
00:14:54,919 --> 00:15:00,720
Like, wow, yeah, they're
already there. And I mean they

205
00:15:00,759 --> 00:15:05,919
were really competitive, like you know, they were uh what do you call?

206
00:15:07,279 --> 00:15:13,480
I can't beieve the name that Division
four or Division I teams, you

207
00:15:13,519 --> 00:15:18,279
know, Like, so they were, you know, they were winning constantly,

208
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:22,039
you know, very good athletes.
And they're off now that they're dedicated

209
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:26,519
to continue it to school. But
but a lot of kids didn't, like

210
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,399
they were just done or like that. It meant if they still wanted to

211
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,120
continue to play, Like football one
of her friends, it meant he could

212
00:15:33,159 --> 00:15:37,240
either go to a really big school
or go to a smaller school and play

213
00:15:37,279 --> 00:15:41,320
and continue to play football, Whereas
he could go to the bigger school try

214
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:45,080
out but might not make it because
he's not that good. You know,

215
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,000
so it was like a give and
take thing. But yeah, it's sad.

216
00:15:48,039 --> 00:15:52,039
It was sad when it was over
with. Yeah, one of my

217
00:15:52,159 --> 00:15:56,320
friends, pretty one of my friends
in my like mom friend group, her

218
00:15:56,480 --> 00:16:02,720
son was is an excellent football player, captain of the high school football team,

219
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:08,279
but is going to a school where
he wouldn't be playing football because it's

220
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:12,480
it was the exact same thing.
And at first they were trying to find

221
00:16:12,519 --> 00:16:18,039
a school where he would be recruited, but the only ones were very small,

222
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,440
like not schools he really wanted to
go to. Yes, so he

223
00:16:21,559 --> 00:16:23,519
chose to go to a school he
wanted to go to Boulder, or he

224
00:16:23,559 --> 00:16:29,399
would not be playing football, no
way. Yeah, just not that good.

225
00:16:29,799 --> 00:16:32,279
And then you got the parents that
are kind of weird those too,

226
00:16:32,399 --> 00:16:37,039
Like there's some parents that I've heard
of like pushing their kids to go to

227
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:41,200
these smaller schools, you know,
just to play, just to continue to

228
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:45,679
play because their dad loved to be
the big man. Like you know,

229
00:16:45,799 --> 00:16:48,120
one of them's like the point guard
at our school. And then their dad,

230
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:52,039
like it, would come to the
games all the time and he kind

231
00:16:52,039 --> 00:16:56,519
of like you know, seem like
he's reliving his days of playing high school

232
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,799
basketball, and then I heard like
they pushed him into going to as small

233
00:17:00,799 --> 00:17:03,079
as you know. It just it's
I feel like that's how I would be

234
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:08,960
if Elv had stuck with basketball.
I would for sure be like, no,

235
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,200
I think you need to go to
a school where you're gonna remember how

236
00:17:12,279 --> 00:17:18,119
much I pushed her. I was
like, please keep playing basketball because it

237
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:22,079
because they were going to make her
stay on the freshman sophomore team after freshman

238
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:26,559
year, which didn't matter anyway because
all of sophomore year was home with COVID.

239
00:17:26,599 --> 00:17:30,920
But I was like, oh my
god, you're gonna be You'll be

240
00:17:30,039 --> 00:17:33,000
the big fish in the small pond
if you're and she was like, no,

241
00:17:33,039 --> 00:17:36,759
I'm going to be on a shitty
ass team. I'm not doing it.

242
00:17:36,799 --> 00:17:41,960
And I was like, yeah,
but I'll be the head mom cheerleader,

243
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,039
will be at every game like she
was like no, no, no

244
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,640
thanks. Yeah yeah, I'd be
like, come on, go to such

245
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,480
and such a school that no one's
ever heard of, and all gonna fly

246
00:17:52,559 --> 00:17:56,880
out for every game. I love
when the kids are good at something and

247
00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:02,240
you get to go watching and do
it. I know. And I was

248
00:18:02,279 --> 00:18:06,000
looking at some of her old volleyball
pictures and videos and it was so fun.

249
00:18:06,039 --> 00:18:08,359
I'm so glad that, you know, we I went to every game

250
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,200
and all of her tournaments, and
we went to the out of town games.

251
00:18:12,279 --> 00:18:17,359
You know, It's just it was
awesome. I just I remember your

252
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:21,720
videos of Sonny playing basketball and getting
like watching the ones where he got a

253
00:18:21,759 --> 00:18:23,880
three pointer, like over and over
and over, like that's not even my

254
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,759
kid. And I was like living
vicariously through you. I know, I

255
00:18:29,039 --> 00:18:33,279
do you living vicariously through Sunny.
I know. It was so fun exciting.

256
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,680
It's exciting because I went to a
high school that didn't have sports,

257
00:18:36,799 --> 00:18:38,559
right, there was no sports,
so I've been used to it, you

258
00:18:38,559 --> 00:18:42,079
know, going to games and stuff
like that, and so now my kids

259
00:18:42,079 --> 00:18:45,400
are playing. It was just it
was so great. I loved it.

260
00:18:45,799 --> 00:18:51,079
I've just never been good at anything. But let's take a quick break.

261
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:56,559
Okay. This message is sponsored by
green Light. Listen. As the kids

262
00:18:56,559 --> 00:19:02,759
get older, something's about parenting get
easier. But some doesn't like figuring out

263
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:07,359
money stuff. You know, kids
don't really know how to manage their money

264
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,720
until they're actually in charge of it, and that is where Greenlight can help.

their room. You can transfer their allowance

271

277
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:15,400
When I was in high school,
I think part of it is because

278
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:19,640
I was just such not a joiner, didn't do anything, had very low

279
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:26,279
self esteem. And I remember deciding
that I was going to play volleyball.

280
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:33,359
Me and my best friend. We
auditioned, we did tryouts. I think

281
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:37,079
anybody who tried out was put on
the team. Yeah, I have very

282
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:42,440
vague memories. I was not good
at volleyball, so I do remember that.

283
00:20:42,759 --> 00:20:48,160
I just and it was hardcore training, running and stares. There were

284
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:52,759
stairs in our school, and I'll
just never forget just being so so tired

285
00:20:52,759 --> 00:20:56,559
from all the training. I think
I was a little bit athletic, only

286
00:20:56,599 --> 00:20:59,559
because I'd been a gymnast for a
couple of years when I was but I

287
00:20:59,559 --> 00:21:04,440
was much younger, right like nine, ten and eleven and maybe twelve.

288
00:21:04,599 --> 00:21:08,799
I was doing gymnastics seven times a
week. I was not that good,

289
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,319
though. John still makes fun of
me because I was. I was training

290
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:18,160
at the LA School of Gymnastics with
pre Olympic people. They have like an

291
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,640
Olympic team. I mean, it
was LA School of Gymnastics. It was

292
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:26,839
big time. A lot of very
big gymnasts came from there. I was

293
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:32,279
not good, though, but my
best friend Jill was really good, and

294
00:21:32,319 --> 00:21:34,839
I love to do everything that Jill
liked to do. So my parents sent

295
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,559
me to this gymnastics school. And
I do remember that they told my parents

296
00:21:38,599 --> 00:21:44,640
that she is not very talented,
but she's really has a lot of enthusiasms

297
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:51,880
for it. Could you do like
backsprings and like roundabouts and round offs,

298
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:55,160
yes, round off back hand spring. Round off back hand spring was my

299
00:21:55,240 --> 00:22:00,200
biggest skill. And I could only
do it on a very cushy mat I

300
00:22:00,279 --> 00:22:06,440
was. But I was very trade. I was like not athletic conditioned.

301
00:22:06,599 --> 00:22:10,480
Yeah, so I could do like
a ton of pull ups and I could

302
00:22:10,559 --> 00:22:15,519
do stuff on the bars. I
had upper body strength. I was really

303
00:22:15,559 --> 00:22:18,759
strong, and I was really flexible, but that's just from all the training.

304
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,920
But I never got the tricks and
I did like, I did have

305
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:26,599
the enthusiasm for it, and I
wasn't scared. I just wasn't talented,

306
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:30,720
Like I just couldn't do it,
and I wasn't really built for it.

307
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:36,200
So then my parents when we moved
to Spokane, Washington, my parents were

308
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:40,640
like, well, we're I was
getting like a scholarship. They really liked

309
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:45,039
my friend Jill. I know,
they gave me some like huge discount.

310
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,359
But once we moved, my mom
was like, well that's no, You're

311
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,160
not good at it, so we're
not going to keep doing it. I

312
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:56,599
know. So then I stopped training
completely, gained weight, got my period,

313
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:03,920
like you know, my body crazy, So I just wasn't really doing

314
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,720
any kind of sports anything. Do
you think that if you continue doing it,

315
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,559
you still you would be I was
just never going to be really good

316
00:23:11,599 --> 00:23:15,400
at it, really, but I
still miss it and think in my brain

317
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,559
that I could have been. I
could have been somebody. Yes, And

318
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,319
John has to make fun of me
now because I'm always like I was on

319
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:26,880
the pre pre pre Olympic team,
pre pre pre pre Olympic team. So

320
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,440
John will make fun of me to
the kids sometimes He's like, no,

321
00:23:30,599 --> 00:23:33,640
mom was like a pretty serious gymnast, like she was a pre pre pre

322
00:23:33,759 --> 00:23:38,319
pre pre Olympics. Then I have
to go shut stop with that because the

323
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,759
kids will be like really, and
I'm like, no, right up,

324
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:47,799
yeah, yeah no. So I
joined the volleyball team for something to do.

325
00:23:48,039 --> 00:23:49,640
I guess I was like sixteen at
that point, so it's been a

326
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:56,400
few years away from gymnastics, but
I still fancied myself in shape, you

327
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,799
know. But there was a lot
of hardcore training. But I was not

328
00:23:59,839 --> 00:24:03,640
very good at volleyball, so I
mean that's how I think. I don't

329
00:24:03,799 --> 00:24:07,839
I don't know. Maybe I could
have been, but I never got played

330
00:24:07,839 --> 00:24:12,400
in any of the games until one
day I believe we were very very far

331
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:19,160
ahead. So she stuck me in
and I immediately missed both my serfs and

332
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:22,160
then I was out and I never
played again. That's the way I remember

333
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:27,160
it in my head. I remember
feeling absolutely humiliated, and then I think

334
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:32,160
I dropped out after that, because
well, what if you played? More

335
00:24:32,279 --> 00:24:34,720
like, what if you you don't
like? What if you continued it?

336
00:24:34,799 --> 00:24:38,200
Do you think you would have been? Okay? Like let's just say yeah,

337
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:44,880
sure, no se Because my school
didn't have any teams. They have

338
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,240
was no sports, but we had
pe and so like it would be like,

339
00:24:48,319 --> 00:24:52,240
okay, today we're going to play
kickball, and today we're going to

340
00:24:52,279 --> 00:24:56,160
play volleyball. So I remember liking
volleyball because I hated kickball because I was

341
00:24:56,200 --> 00:25:00,480
always picked last and I can never
and then the ball would come to me

342
00:25:00,519 --> 00:25:02,680
and I go, oh, it's
gonna hit my boobs. No, no,

343
00:25:03,319 --> 00:25:07,000
And so then I played. So
then I played volleyball. About softball,

344
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,359
were you like, they don't have
to throw me in deep right field?

345
00:25:10,519 --> 00:25:12,079
Yes, where the ball never goes, It never goes. But then

346
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,039
every once in a while it would
and people would be like, oh no,

347
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:22,079
going towards Stephanie and then i'd miss
it. I'd be afraid to catch

348
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:23,720
it because I mean I was like, oh no, it's gonna hit me.

349
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:27,240
Yeah. But so then volleyball was
like okay, I think I can

350
00:25:27,279 --> 00:25:30,799
do this, you know. And
then so I played volleyball for so whenever

351
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,960
we had volleyball, but we never
got to play it very much. But

352
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:38,079
it was I remember it was the
one team sport that I did like to

353
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:44,920
play. And I was, okay, you fancy yourself like I give on

354
00:25:45,079 --> 00:25:48,839
the pre pre pre pre pre volleyball
Olympics. Yes, absolutely, yes,

355
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:55,400
sure, sure, same with me. Right. I remember high school sports,

356
00:25:55,559 --> 00:25:59,759
dodgeball in particular, as just being
you know, I know it's common.

357
00:25:59,759 --> 00:26:03,000
I know a lot of people feel, but I just don't remember feeling

358
00:26:03,039 --> 00:26:07,200
like I was athletically. I didn't. I didn't think I I thought of

359
00:26:07,279 --> 00:26:10,759
myself badly when it came to sports, so then I didn't really try.

360
00:26:11,319 --> 00:26:14,400
I do you think it's because of
your boobs, because for me it was

361
00:26:14,599 --> 00:26:18,519
it was I'm afraid that First of
all, I can't run. You know,

362
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:22,960
I wasn't very good at running because
I didn't and also, like in

363
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,359
the eighties, I didn't have like
a good sports bra, like my mom

364
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:32,079
bought me one bra year, you
know, like it was not I never

365
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:33,880
had good support, so I could
have been I might as well have been

366
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,319
out there with bralis so just running. It was just like and it was

367
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:41,759
embarrassing and like I wanted to hold
my boobs when I had to run.

368
00:26:41,279 --> 00:26:45,920
My boobs were a big factor with
the sports stuff. I hated it,

369
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:48,759
Yeah I did. I really did
too. And then I remember my PE

370
00:26:49,079 --> 00:26:52,400
teacher going like, well, why
don't you just get some rope and tie

371
00:26:52,599 --> 00:26:56,640
back, like tie it around your
waist and tie it, tie it up,

372
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,319
like he would just yell. Remember
my PE coaches raised yeah no don

373
00:27:00,519 --> 00:27:07,039
oh don don. It was just
like so inappropriate all the time to us

374
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:11,160
kids just sit out there try and
get tan with his shirt off. But

375
00:27:11,319 --> 00:27:12,359
yeah, he would say like,
well don't you just get some rope have

376
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:17,759
your friend tied around your waist?
Like I thought, okay, like that's

377
00:27:17,799 --> 00:27:23,119
gonna work. I remember in high
school and I'm trying to remember what grade

378
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,880
it would have been, but I'm
thinking tenth grade. I remember a guy

379
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:34,119
coming up to me and just going
you have the biggest tits, and it

380
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:40,880
was off like it was so mortifying. It was humiliating, embarrassing, and

381
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:45,079
it was said as a taunt.
It was not like you have good tits,

382
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,359
No, it was like you have
big tit like he was disgusted by

383
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:53,039
me and really needed to call it
out. And I just remember thinking,

384
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,839
God, have these brusts are the
bane of my existence. I can't tell

385
00:27:56,880 --> 00:28:00,119
you how many comments I got.
I hated it. I remember when when

386
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:06,599
I worked at Bob's Big Boy,
Abdalla's Big Boy. What I remember this

387
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:10,480
girl going, your boobs are so
gross. It looks like you have a

388
00:28:10,519 --> 00:28:15,079
pillow under your shirt. Yeah,
I got it too. And I always

389
00:28:15,079 --> 00:28:19,079
hated it when people would call you
out in front of other people and then

390
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,920
everybody just goes shit and like looks
at you in your breasts, you know

391
00:28:23,039 --> 00:28:26,759
it. Just I hated it.
It was like so uncomfortable, and then

392
00:28:26,799 --> 00:28:32,480
you'd get nicknames and stuff like you
know, Linnetti titty or you know,

393
00:28:32,799 --> 00:28:37,200
like just ugh. I hated it. And there was no chance of getting

394
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:41,359
any kind of surgery, No way
that costs money, and that was that

395
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,960
have surgery until I was like forty. Yeah, I mean I told you

396
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:52,519
I had this surgery when I was
twenty. But they grew back. Yeah,

397
00:28:52,759 --> 00:28:59,119
they grow back. I was reading
somewhere maybe on our Facebook group.

398
00:28:59,119 --> 00:29:03,000
They were talking about the boobs growing
back and needing the surgery again, and

399
00:29:03,039 --> 00:29:06,920
I was like, I guess that's
what happened to me, because in my

400
00:29:07,119 --> 00:29:11,000
mind I thought I just gained weight, but I didn't. Right, It's

401
00:29:11,119 --> 00:29:15,440
just I guess if I did put
on weight because I'm not overweight. But

402
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,440
I was like, well, it's
because when I'm overweight, I get it

403
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:22,000
in my boobs, and then when
I lose weight it's not. But now

404
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:26,039
it doesn't matter. There's my boobs
are big no matter what, right,

405
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:30,799
right, And they don't and they're
all mushy, so they don't fit properly.

406
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,119
They don't look good, you know
what I mean. Like at least

407
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:36,680
when I was younger, they were
perkier, so even though they were,

408
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,799
but they were also smaller because I'd
had the surgery when I was young.

409
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,319
But yeah, my mom was like
absolutely not no, not paying for that,

410
00:29:44,519 --> 00:29:47,359
No, I know, And you're
too young. Yeah, my parents

411
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:51,599
too now. And I remember there
was a girl at our school she was

412
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:55,160
actually two years younger than me,
and she got it done, she got

413
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:56,880
the reduction. I was so jealous, and I would talk to her about

414
00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:00,559
it and she would tell me like, oh, I can fit into little

415
00:30:00,559 --> 00:30:03,480
tank tops now, and I could
wear little sun dresses. And I was

416
00:30:03,519 --> 00:30:08,720
always like, oh, you bitch, like you know, but got a

417
00:30:08,759 --> 00:30:12,000
Shopping for clothes was a nightmare.
It was a nightmare. You had to

418
00:30:12,039 --> 00:30:15,640
wear all like super oversized T shirts, but then it would make you look

419
00:30:15,759 --> 00:30:19,559
heavier because it would they're so bad's
a problem with boobs. They might look

420
00:30:19,599 --> 00:30:23,240
pregnant too, yes, the wrong
shit. Yes. And I could never

421
00:30:23,319 --> 00:30:27,799
wear like an Oxford shirt remember when
those were verry in style. Love that,

422
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:32,240
Yeah, but the buttons would always
push pull apart. You had to

423
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,920
wear it so big. And then
if you wore something that was a high

424
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,839
neck, I could never wear like
crew necks because then it made it look

425
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,880
like your boobs are in the middle
of your body. Yes, yeah,

426
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,160
because I had the shitty support braw
no support bra right. Yeah, yeah,

427
00:30:45,279 --> 00:30:51,960
I remember wearing having to buy those
just matronly bras, minimizer bras.

428
00:30:52,319 --> 00:30:56,599
Remember those Balleys minimizer brash. Yeah. Yeah, I lived in I had

429
00:30:56,599 --> 00:30:57,920
like a couple of those, and
that's all I wore. I remember as

430
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:02,200
soon as I got my first paycheck
ever, Like the first thing I did

431
00:31:02,279 --> 00:31:04,319
was go out and buy bras,
Like I need to go to the store.

432
00:31:04,799 --> 00:31:11,359
I need some sales lady to fondle
me and like measure me properly and

433
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,799
tell me which bra. You know, sometimes you go those stores, the

434
00:31:14,839 --> 00:31:18,000
lady goes, oh, you're wearing
honey, that's the wrong size. And

435
00:31:18,039 --> 00:31:22,440
then she'd go and measure you,
and you know, stuff your ship inside,

436
00:31:22,599 --> 00:31:26,680
like pull it up right, shift
it the right way, like you

437
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:30,319
always have to have to bend over
and put your boots in the cup and

438
00:31:30,359 --> 00:31:34,559
then you sit back up and then
you adjust the straps. Yeah, this

439
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:42,839
is a whole kashaw these tits.
Fucking Christ, that's a good drop drop.

440
00:31:44,039 --> 00:31:47,160
I know, these tits. I
wish we could do drops. Yeah,

441
00:31:47,359 --> 00:31:52,839
whole kasha these tits. All right, So here's something we don't often

442
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:56,799
do. Yeah, but there was
a post on Facebook in our Facebook group

443
00:31:57,559 --> 00:32:00,559
by one of our members. But
they're on anonymous, so I hope they

444
00:32:00,559 --> 00:32:05,680
don't mind. I want to read
the post because I thought it was an

445
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:10,519
interesting discussion. Okay, okay,
so it's kind of like am I the

446
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:19,039
asshole? Or what would you do? Post Okay, So here's how it

447
00:32:19,079 --> 00:32:22,319
goes. Because she did a little
too long, didn't read too long,

448
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:27,400
didn't read but I'm going to Okay. We have a family friend visiting for

449
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,839
the summer and she helps with cleaning
and occasionally watches the kids while I'm working

450
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:35,759
from home. We pay her,
so it's like a nanny. She's in

451
00:32:35,799 --> 00:32:38,680
her mid fifties and is also from
another country, if that gives perspective.

452
00:32:39,039 --> 00:32:43,480
The other day, she hit my
seven year old child about three to four

453
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,240
times and pinched her, then pinched
my three year old. What the fuck?

454
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:51,599
Yeah, the kids were playing around
and being little turds, throwing her

455
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:53,960
hat on the ground, and she
asked them to stop, and like true

456
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:58,680
little kids, they didn't listen and
did it again. She chased them down

457
00:32:59,119 --> 00:33:01,920
and then hit an pinched them.
The kids came running to me in my

458
00:33:02,039 --> 00:33:06,559
office. The three year old was
crying. The seven year old was flabbergasted

459
00:33:06,599 --> 00:33:12,079
and upset and told me what happened. Then the sitter came in and said,

460
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:17,319
hold on, I lost the okah, Okay. Then the sitter came

461
00:33:17,359 --> 00:33:21,400
in and said how she told them
to stop throwing the hat and they didn't,

462
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,119
so she hit them this isn't a
foreign language and I can't speak it

463
00:33:24,279 --> 00:33:27,920
very well, and that was what
I got from it. I said,

464
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:31,079
we don't do that, and then
took the kids and later watched the camera

465
00:33:31,559 --> 00:33:35,480
so she had a camera on them
so I could see exactly what happened.

466
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,759
My biggest issue is that she hit
them out of frustration and didn't come to

467
00:33:38,799 --> 00:33:43,720
me. My second issue is when
my husband came home, she told him

468
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,519
a different story where they were playing, and that was part of the game.

469
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:52,119
He speaks the language, so there's
no doubt about what was said there,

470
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,680
so she lied to him about it, and she says. My husband's

471
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:59,759
side says he grew up with regular
ass whoopons and that is part of their

472
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:05,240
cure. She's older, quote from
a different generation, and we never explicitly

473
00:34:05,279 --> 00:34:08,239
told her not to hit the kids. Then she says, I'm sorry,

474
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:12,960
but never have I ever had to
tell a sitter not to spank or pinch

475
00:34:13,079 --> 00:34:16,679
my kids? Kind of a no
brainer. Please keep in mind, we

476
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:20,920
as their parents, don't hit our
own kids, so she hasn't seen us

477
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:24,400
do it. Anyway, I'm pissed
and looking for validation. My husband is

478
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:29,000
like, eh, it happened one
time, and we told her, so

479
00:34:29,119 --> 00:34:32,320
we can give her another chance.
Basically, but I feel like I can't

480
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:36,519
even trust her with the kids.
Am I the asshole for not wanting to

481
00:34:36,559 --> 00:34:43,079
give her another chance? Now?
Basically, a lot of people were saying

482
00:34:43,159 --> 00:34:46,280
like no, some people were saying, well, maybe she didn't really understand

483
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:50,519
not to do it. But in
another comment, which I'm not going to

484
00:34:50,599 --> 00:34:54,920
find right now, she described the
situation as the nanny basically chased them down

485
00:34:54,960 --> 00:35:00,639
and then was like hitting them like
several times, like punt like them.

486
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:05,199
Wow, well that's not a whooping, that's not like no, that's not

487
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,480
old school discipline. No, that's
not discipline. That's fighting your kids.

488
00:35:08,519 --> 00:35:14,000
There one is a three year old
year old. Yeah that's no. So

489
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:21,320
yeah, I was like absolutely not
by Yeah, I absolutely not know either,

490
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,400
but story but no, But here's
the thing, like I get it,

491
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:29,039
Like, you know, some cultures
and some you know, older old

492
00:35:29,079 --> 00:35:31,920
school you know, they do a
little you know smack or whatever. And

493
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,880
you know, I grew up where
my mom beat on me, you know,

494
00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,880
and my mom wasn't just like giving
me a smack. She was hitting

495
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:45,239
me, like punching me and grabbing
me with her nails and pulling my hair

496
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:49,599
and you know all that shit.
So I got hit a lot, but

497
00:35:49,599 --> 00:35:57,119
but I get it, like there's
other you know, situations whatever, uh

498
00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:00,440
Adam and I decide like we did
not hit our kids, and we did

499
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:05,239
not. We're not down for that, not down at all, so you

500
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:09,000
know, and when we did higher
Oga, you know, we did say

501
00:36:09,079 --> 00:36:14,840
like we're not you know, we're
not for it or whatever. But I

502
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:16,960
think, like, I don't know, I can't remember. So okay,

503
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:20,920
so one, you know what,
let's let's take a break and then I'll

504
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,280

518
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:38,519
did you explicitly say to Olga?
I think I do remember, Yeah,

519
00:37:38,639 --> 00:37:45,559
I mean we might have had talks
and stuff. I think so. But

520
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:50,920
okay, So, but she did
tell us that she raised a single you

521
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:52,760
know, a daughter, She was
a single mom on her own, and

522
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,920
that she has from time to time
giving her daughter a little smack you know,

523
00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:00,800
on the booty or whatever, not
in the face, just a little

524
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:05,320
like just to you know, at
the right age, not at a baby,

525
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,519
at a three year old or whatever. Right, and or did you

526
00:38:07,679 --> 00:38:10,119
like okay? Cool? Well?
And I was like, I don't remember,

527
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:14,039
but I but I know Adam was
like, yeah, that's fine.

528
00:38:15,119 --> 00:38:16,599
He was down with it, you
know, he's like he's not down for

529
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:20,880
like, you know, beating on
kids, but like you know, he's

530
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:24,719
okay with a little old school smack
or whatever, and okay. So there

531
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:30,599
was a time where Olga was giving
Natalia bath I think she was like six

532
00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:36,480
years old, and uh, she
was like playfully, you know, we

533
00:38:36,559 --> 00:38:38,840
just talked about it recently with Natalia. She thinks it's funny when we tell

534
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:44,519
her now. So so there was
they were we were we Olga and I

535
00:38:44,559 --> 00:38:49,559
both had him in the bathtub and
I got so Sonny she was playing.

536
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,719
She was like, you know,
get talking to Sonny and until he was

537
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,719
trying to get her attention and I
was getting Sonny ready to get him out.

538
00:38:57,119 --> 00:38:59,719
So I was holding the towel and
we were all talking to Sonny and

539
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:05,400
we were she wasn't getting the attention
she wanted, so she spit water into

540
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:09,199
Olga's face. Okay, and Olga
goes no, that said no, no,

541
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:12,960
you don't you know she's like and
both of us were like, no,

542
00:39:13,039 --> 00:39:15,039
you know whatever, I got Sunny
with the towel, grabbed him,

543
00:39:15,039 --> 00:39:19,679
got him out of the tub,
and then while Olga was telling her that

544
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:22,480
said no, no, she did
it again. You know, like kind

545
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:27,320
of goofing around. She did it
again, like right into Olga's face,

546
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:31,760
and then Oga went up and she
smacked her right on the booty, oh,

547
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:36,559
on the butt, yes, yeah, she smacked like her hip area,

548
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,679
just like and then she went ah. She started crying, okay,

549
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:43,400
hit me, ohkay, hit me. She goes, go ahead, go

550
00:39:43,599 --> 00:39:45,400
tell your parents. I hit You'll
go ahead, you know. I mean,

551
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:50,400
Olga's been with us like five years
by now we know her, you

552
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:54,119
know. And Adam was like,
good, I don't care what she she

553
00:39:54,199 --> 00:39:59,360
probably deserved it. I'm sure it's
fine, blah blah blah. And you

554
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,239
know, she told me and I
was like, it's fine. You know,

555
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:05,800
I knew Oga doesn't like, you
know, smack the ship out of

556
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:10,199
kids. You know, this situation
with this person, this anonymous person is

557
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:16,159
describing is way out of line,
way out of line totally. And I

558
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:23,840
don't like that. They that she
took anger out and she couldn't have,

559
00:40:24,119 --> 00:40:28,840
Like she's the adult. You have
to stop and you have to correct the

560
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:32,920
child. And if you're getting upset, then you know, go get the

561
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:37,280
the mom was was in the other
room or I don't know, yeah or

562
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,719
whatever, but like you can't lose
your control. You cannot, you cannot.

563
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:44,920
You should not be around kids,
especially having somebody pay you to take

564
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:49,039
care of your kids if you can't
handle your anger and you can't control your

565
00:40:49,039 --> 00:40:52,400
ship. And then pinching a three, hitting a three year old and pinching

566
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:57,039
a three and pinching by the way
and weird. People were like, well,

567
00:40:57,159 --> 00:41:00,760
she could get another chance. But
it's like that doesn't seem like something

568
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:04,639
that was planned, Like that's just
your discipline style. And if you're told,

569
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,599
hey, don't do that, you
shouldn't be told not to do that.

570
00:41:07,679 --> 00:41:08,840
But that sounds like she got,
like you said, anger, is

571
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:14,360
she Yeah, she's got anger,
and then lied about her a lying is

572
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:17,320
also yeah, And you know she
probably figured like, oh, you know

573
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:24,000
this whitey don't hit kids, And
now she's trying to like cover her tracks,

574
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:29,400
you know or whatever, and you
know that's not that's not the way

575
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,840
to handle it, like and then
lying, yeah, so I wouldn't give

576
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:36,840
her So this is so, this
is there's a there's an edit. An

577
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:39,840
edit, Oh, there's an update. Okay, she wrote update, Thanks

578
00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:44,760
everyone, I appreciate all the input
and reassurance. She will be flying out

579
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,559
on Thursday. My husband told her
there were too many cultural differences, and

580
00:41:47,599 --> 00:41:52,199
I think she seems happy to go
back early she won't be back. Oh

581
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:54,719
good, yeah good. So I
mean I'm happy for her because I just

582
00:41:54,760 --> 00:42:00,159
would not feel comfortable with that person
in my house. No, no way.

583
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:02,320
I would just be so mad.
Yeah, I would be too.

584
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:07,400
You No, I don't. It's
I'm trying to think if I've ever spanked

585
00:42:08,559 --> 00:42:14,639
my kids. I think I tried
to spank Sadie one time because she was

586
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:21,039
so bad. Yeah, really early
on, when she would bite Xander and

587
00:42:21,079 --> 00:42:22,719
she was just doing a bunch of
bad behavior. I think I one time.

588
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:29,800
And she was also very defiant about
it, like she remember you remember

589
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:31,599
back in the day when I thought
she might be a sociopath. Yeah,

590
00:42:31,639 --> 00:42:37,360
And I was like, this kid
has no remorse, doesn't care, Like

591
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,519
would bite Xander and you'd be like
you just bit Xander and she'd just stare

592
00:42:40,559 --> 00:42:45,159
at you, like what who are
you trying to? I don't care.

593
00:42:45,639 --> 00:42:47,719
Yeah, I do think I got
mad. And then she would when it

594
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:52,119
was time for bed, she would
get so angry about having to go to

595
00:42:52,159 --> 00:42:55,679
bed that she would throw all of
her stuff outside of the crib. She

596
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:59,360
was in a crib. She had
to be in a crib for way longer

597
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,559
than LBB because she was so bad. Yeah. I was like, this

598
00:43:01,639 --> 00:43:07,760
kid will never be able to handle
a big girl bed because she's just gonna

599
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:09,840
be like, oh what, Oh, I can just get out. Yeah,

600
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:13,440
and then she would just get up, so oh my god. I

601
00:43:13,519 --> 00:43:16,639
remember she would take all of the
bedding off the bed. She was like

602
00:43:16,679 --> 00:43:21,840
a destructive little monkey, you know. She would rip all the bedding off

603
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:24,039
and just throw it outside the crib. So then she would just be laying

604
00:43:24,159 --> 00:43:29,760
in a bear mattress, right thin. Get a lot of kids cream,

605
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:32,199
Yeah, a lot of kids did
that. Yeah. At some point though,

606
00:43:32,199 --> 00:43:37,280
I got pissed at what. I
just remember one time getting really upset

607
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:42,119
and like turning her around and like
whacking her off the butt and did no

608
00:43:42,199 --> 00:43:45,480
good. Yeah, So I was
like all right, Yeah, I mean

609
00:43:45,599 --> 00:43:47,599
I just made it a conscious effort, you know, like my mom was

610
00:43:47,639 --> 00:43:52,880
so grabby and aggressive and I'm not, you know, like I would never

611
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:57,719
ever scare my kids because I was
afraid of my mom for a while.

612
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,800
I thought my mom wanted to kill
me when I was young, Like I'm

613
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:04,320
scared of her, and I was
like, I'm never going to do that

614
00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:07,519
to my kids. So I think
that's why you and I relate. I

615
00:44:07,599 --> 00:44:12,000
was really scared of my stepfather and
he did tell me he would kill me

616
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,239
one time, and I lived in
fear of I mean, he was he

617
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:20,800
had been a boxer, So I
was like scary, especially like stepdad.

618
00:44:21,079 --> 00:44:23,639
I couldn't imagine. That's frightening.
Yeah, but a stepdad that I'd known

619
00:44:23,679 --> 00:44:29,039
my entire life because my mom divorced
my father when I think I was four.

620
00:44:29,159 --> 00:44:32,159
But he was my father's best friend. Oh yeah, always around us.

621
00:44:32,199 --> 00:44:36,559
So he lived in like our guest
house, and he talk about anger

622
00:44:36,599 --> 00:44:39,599
issues. He had real about anger
issues. M Yeah, I never want

623
00:44:39,599 --> 00:44:43,519
my kids, I don't. I
know. I don't even yell at my

624
00:44:43,639 --> 00:44:46,920
kids. Yeah no, I that's
the one thing, Like I don't ever

625
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:50,760
want my kids to feel like,
oh my god, Mom's gonna flip out

626
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,039
at any moment, you know.
Yeah, and maybe I overcome and sate

627
00:44:53,119 --> 00:44:55,519
go the other way, Yeah,
same, which is what we do,

628
00:44:57,039 --> 00:45:00,840
you know. But I'd rather that
and have them be afraid of me or

629
00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:06,360
scared, you know. I remember
thinking like I'm I'm afraid in the Italian

630
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:08,480
is going to do something it's sunny. Because remember, like I was always

631
00:45:08,519 --> 00:45:13,920
like, she doesn't cry during movies, excuse me? Like I would think,

632
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:15,599
you know, like there was something
wrong with her. Or she would

633
00:45:15,679 --> 00:45:20,280
knock his shit over when he's you
know, building something, or she would

634
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:22,920
try and kick Mollie to get our
attention. And you know, so I

635
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,920
was always like I wonder, you
know, I'd be afraid. Now it's

636
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:31,360
like no, like, you know, thank god she's not. She didn't

637
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:37,159
turn out that way. But yeah, when you when you come from like

638
00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:39,039
chaos and stuff, like you kind
of want it, like when you have

639
00:45:39,199 --> 00:45:43,440
kids, you want it. You
tend to maybe over career, you know,

640
00:45:43,519 --> 00:45:47,320
you want to just like not be
that person that your parents were to

641
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:52,159
you, you know, And my
dad was the My dad was opposite.

642
00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:55,039
He was very easy going and I
was close with him, very close.

643
00:45:55,119 --> 00:45:59,880
Yeah, so then you have that
modeled for you that just because he wasn't

644
00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:02,599
a strong disciplinarian doesn't mean that he
was a bad parent. He was a

645
00:46:02,599 --> 00:46:06,639
good parent and he felt safe with
him. Yes, so you could talk

646
00:46:06,679 --> 00:46:08,920
to him. Yeah, but he
did hit me with about once and he

647
00:46:09,039 --> 00:46:14,079
said, any if you ever do
anything that's going to jeopardize your life.

648
00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,360
I'm gonna hit you with the belt. And I ran across the street in

649
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:21,440
front of him and a car was
coming and he took a belt hit me

650
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:24,400
with it and I was done.
Wouldn't do that again. But that's it.

651
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:28,599
Like my dad would never, he
wasn't. He didn't have a temper

652
00:46:28,679 --> 00:46:31,199
and scream and like grab like he
wasn't. My mom my mom would do

653
00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:36,840
that to him. She beat up
on him. Yeah, then you have

654
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:39,360
to watch that growing up. Yeah, and it was awful. And that's

655
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:43,920
what's being modeled. That's the behavior
that's being modeled for you. Yeah,

656
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,920
as a mom, right, thank
god that we both you know, I

657
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:54,039
mean, sure is our parenting of
the maybe two soft Friday? I don't

658
00:46:54,079 --> 00:46:58,000
know, But how do we know? You know, there's a lot of

659
00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:02,039
different philosophies on how to pair.
Yes, And you know, listen,

660
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:07,639
my kids are fine. Yes,
they're good people. She's a very good

661
00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:12,559
person. She doesn't have a bunch
of you know, psychological issues. She's

662
00:47:12,599 --> 00:47:15,960
not not that that would be the
parent's fault either, you know, necessarily.

663
00:47:16,039 --> 00:47:23,320
But the way that I chose to
go about it was definitely of the

664
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:30,920
softer parenting. But I would live
in fear. I remember one time.

665
00:47:31,119 --> 00:47:35,360
I'm sure I talked about it,
because see, this is the problem with

666
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:38,239
having done a podcast for fifteen years. It's like, you know, things

667
00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:42,400
happen, and we talked about it
at the time, But I remember yelling

668
00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:45,800
at LB because I was so mad
at her one time because she lied.

669
00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:50,559
She went through a little period and
I think it was around fifth grade where

670
00:47:50,599 --> 00:47:54,280
she was telling the lies and real
boldface, like real like look you in

671
00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:59,239
the eye and tell you what you
want to hear, because it's the easier

672
00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:01,199
way to go about it, because
she didn't want to do homework. And

673
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:06,360
I remember that there was a couple
of different lies that I caught her in

674
00:48:07,119 --> 00:48:10,000
where the thing that made me the
maddest about it was that she stared right

675
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:14,960
in my face and convinced me of
something. She wasn't even being a bad

676
00:48:15,039 --> 00:48:17,039
liar. She was such a good
liar that I was like, would never

677
00:48:17,119 --> 00:48:22,079
think to not trust her. And
then I found out this one particular lie

678
00:48:22,199 --> 00:48:29,159
was that she'd not been doing her
homework, so she'd been the class work

679
00:48:29,199 --> 00:48:31,280
was supposed to be finished at home. If you didn't finish something in class

680
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,599
that was your homework, you had
to finish it, and then she would

681
00:48:34,639 --> 00:48:37,679
take all the papers and tuck them
in the back of her folder, all

682
00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:40,320
the way in the back, like
hide them. You don't know how she

683
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:45,039
thought she was going to continue to
get away with it. Another mom had

684
00:48:45,079 --> 00:48:50,239
called me because she wanted to know
what the math was. She was having

685
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:52,119
a similar problem with her kid,
but she knew that they were supposed to

686
00:48:52,159 --> 00:48:55,920
finish something. And I was like, Elbie, can I see whatever the

687
00:48:55,960 --> 00:49:00,679
math from today? And she was
like, uh oh, I don't have

688
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:01,440
it. And I was like,
what do you mean you don't have it?

689
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:05,480
It was something that was done and
I need to see it. Uh

690
00:49:05,599 --> 00:49:09,360
no, no, can't do I
don't know what math was that worried even

691
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:15,480
mean, and I was like,
uh where you're being so strange? Bring

692
00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:19,639
me your folder. Can't find it. I was like, yes, you

693
00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:22,880
can, It's in your backpack.
Go get your folder and bring it to

694
00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:24,199
me. And then I was like, what is up? So I look

695
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:29,760
in there and I see all of
these unfinished papers, and then she got

696
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:32,079
grounded. But then I was kind
of onto her. I was like,

697
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:37,360
oh really, Like so then she
couldn't watch TV for like two weeks,

698
00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:39,840
and then of course, immediately I
was like, shit, this is more

699
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:44,039
of a punishment for me. Then
I would let because I would have to

700
00:49:44,119 --> 00:49:46,800
let Sadie and Xander watch TV and
I couldn't. Then LB had to go

701
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:50,679
to her room while they were watching
TV. And then of course I was

702
00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:52,920
like, oh, this was way
too long a punishment, this does not

703
00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:55,400
fit the crime. But then you
don't want to go like, you know,

704
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,440
and I'm just going to make it
a week, Like I think you're

705
00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:00,880
going to be good in a week. So I think guy kept it up

706
00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:05,360
most of the time, but then
another time, but then I was on

707
00:50:05,519 --> 00:50:08,079
guard, and I think one other
time I caught her lying and I got

708
00:50:08,119 --> 00:50:12,400
so mad. I think it was
in the morning and we were on the

709
00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:15,199
way to school and I yelled at
her in the car and I was very

710
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:19,400
mad, and I was like,
I can't believe you did that. You

711
00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,119
know, I yelled at her,
and then I had to drop her off

712
00:50:22,159 --> 00:50:25,280
at school that way, and then
I obsessed about it the whole day,

713
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:30,159
cried about it. I felt so
bad. I was like, I scared

714
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:35,360
her, and now she's scared of
me. I've ruined our relationship. Now

715
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:40,280
she's going to think of me as
a mom who screams at her and tortured

716
00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:45,119
all day, couldn't wait to go
pick her up, and I was like,

717
00:50:45,159 --> 00:50:47,360
I don't know how she's going to
be, and she'd been sad all

718
00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:51,320
day, and I wanted to like
show up at the school and be like,

719
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:55,320
are we okay because I'm so freaking
codependent, right, pick her up

720
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:58,360
at the end of the day and
she's like, hey, mom, like

721
00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,239
I had totally forgotten about it.
And of course then I apologize and she

722
00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:05,760
was like, ah, what,
Yeah, I forget, barely remembered,

723
00:51:06,039 --> 00:51:09,440
hadn't bothered her. And that's when
I realized, Oh, it's because we

724
00:51:09,519 --> 00:51:13,119
don't. I don't yell at her
all the time, like we don't have

725
00:51:13,199 --> 00:51:16,280
a tense relationship. But I thought
maybe it would she in her mind,

726
00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:19,199
she'd be like, well, now
this is how it's always going to be

727
00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:22,480
my mom, Like is a screamer, right, Yes, I know,

728
00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:27,400
I know that's the sad but I
remember feeling guilty like that too. But

729
00:51:27,519 --> 00:51:30,159
yeah, and you think like it's
on their mind all day, but then

730
00:51:30,199 --> 00:51:34,480
you they forget, you know,
But yeah, that's another reason, like

731
00:51:34,599 --> 00:51:37,760
I've always you know, I didn't
want to be the you know, like

732
00:51:37,119 --> 00:51:39,920
have them. I just because I
had such a bad relationship with my mom

733
00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:44,079
and my mom and I fought all
the time, like I wanted, you

734
00:51:44,119 --> 00:51:45,280
know, them to be able to
feel like they can talk to me and

735
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:52,480
they can come to me or whatever. But yeah, it's thank god they're

736
00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:58,639
eighteen. My mom was so so
hypercritical, you know that just whatever I

737
00:51:58,679 --> 00:52:02,920
was wearing doing saying like I feel
like I was getting corrected. And I've

738
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:07,159
definitely gone the other way on that
too. Like there's things that I want

739
00:52:07,199 --> 00:52:10,559
to say sometimes to my kids that
I'm like, is it gonna help them?

740
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:15,800
Are they really going to grow from
me pointing this out? Or if

741
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:21,559
not, I just don't say it. Yeah, And I think it's better,

742
00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:27,679
Yeah, probably because there's certain things
that I feel like they already know.

743
00:52:28,159 --> 00:52:30,840
I mean when it was like when
they were younger and they'd be stinky,

744
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:32,960
I'd be like, oh God,
you smell bad, Like if there's

745
00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:36,000
something they can do about it?
Do you know what I mean? But

746
00:52:36,079 --> 00:52:42,239
like I oftentimes go is this something
they can do something about? Or am

747
00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:45,480
I pointing out that they're being annoying
and it's not something they're doing like on

748
00:52:45,559 --> 00:52:51,039
purpose? Do I need to make
themself conscious, like sometimes the instinct is

749
00:52:51,079 --> 00:52:54,119
like how I was parented and it
wasn't a good thing. Yeah, yeah,
