Hella is like hell of a lot, no, hell of a lot.
Okay, man, It's like you're not even from New York.
Why are you trying to defend.
Speaker 3You know what?
Speaker 1Because when I used to go to school in Virginia, I used to say all that said, all of it though, hell mad?
So you wanted to before everywhere I didn't meet it was surrounded by he was a clown.
Speaker 3I started saying.
Speaker 1I was saying Hella a lot though, because my friends she was lived in Maryland, so I was around her a lot.
Speaker 2But then I moved here and there.
Speaker 1Sorry Drake like whoever he hang around girl when he be with them Caribbeans and be like yeah, mine boyah mine, that's Jamaica crazy.
Is you're talking from a bunch of African talking about yeah mine stupid girl.
Speaker 2All right, oh my god.
Speaker 1We started reading the story ship mad Heavy.
All right, that's how we got today.
All right, here we go, Jazz.
My husband and my mother are bumping heads mad Heavy.
Oh because we all live together.
Speaker 2What can I do?
Speaker 1He wants my mom gone, but she helps us with the four kids we have.
Damn because we both work full time jobs.
I actually have three jobs.
Speaker 2Oh my god.
She might be a jamikan shut.
Speaker 1And they mainly argue about my daughter because my husband is pretty negligent.
I'll admit I'm both scared and nervous to confront her because my husband is unhappy Jess.
But she's still my mother.
I want to respect her.
But at the same time, there has to be boundaries.
Boundaries drawn or drown Boundaries drawn?
Speaker 2Is crazy?
Is that like a New York thing?
Speaker 1Be boundaries?
I'll just say in place, because drawing.
You can't draw your boundaries.
Let me say you can.
You can like going a piece of paper with a pencil.
Speaker 4That's not how she's saying it, though.
Okay, all right, boundaries have to be drawn.
So girl, this New York, she got to meet friends with this morning shit.
Speaker 1All right, So the mother lives with them, right obviously, because she said the husband wants her to go.
So that's their house obviously, all right, and her husband and her mom, but bumps head, it's her mom.
They they they bump heads, mad heavy, y'all.
So and they all live together.
But they got four kids, so obviously the mom is a nanny.
Speaker 3Hm.
Speaker 2She takes care of the children.
Speaker 1She said that her most of the arguments are about she's the husband being negligent with the daughter.
I don't want to she's saying, right, slick shit.
I guess the mother if she's scared.
Listen, I'm just reading the context.
If she's scared to confront her mother.
Obviously her mother is about that life.
Her mother ain't the one to be playing with.
Is it making her and her husband get an argument.
No, she just said, like he wants her gone.
It's going to eventually come to that because he wants her to put our mother out.
But that's how mother, who's also the nanny.
But it's still a thing of you have to respect your husband because that's their house.
Speaker 3They're still not meaning.
Speaker 1The bulls because what how does your how does her mom be talking to like how the argument is getting too the argument because the husband is not gonna gent with the daughter, probably steps in.
The mother probably steps in and tries to teach him how to parent, like, tries to tell him how to parent forcefully, you know, because she may feel like I know this better than you, I've been doing this better than you, y'all need my help.
She probably want some cocky shit like y'all need my help.
Yeah, especially if our daughter is scared to talk to her or just nervous, you know.
Well, she said scared.
She says, she's both scared and nervous to confront her.
She said, but jes my husband is unhappy.
So yeah, he's eventually going to start taking that out on her.
Well, I'm not gonna say that it's gonna drive a wedgend between them.
He's probably gonna come to her sooner than later and say, listen, it's me or your mom.
Speaker 2I can't do this shit.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 1We got four kids, and if she got three jobs and he got four times, one of them had to stop working and fucking be at home.
Speaker 3That the only reason why she's living with them though, too.
Speaker 1Then I probably so, probably so that is probably the only reason why they got four fucking children and four fucking jobs between them both.
That's a lot.
Them babies, Them babies are grandma's babies.
Yeah, pretty much, four jobs between them two.
I see why the fucking neglige and he fucking tied, right, God damn, Hold up, Hold up, I know this ship getting good.
But listen to just a couple seconds of a commercial.
If you love me, you'll listen.
Speaker 2What do you think.
Speaker 5I feel like she needs?
Speaker 2That's a lot, I said, because that's a lot, y'all.
Speaker 3But she needs.
Speaker 5Was she so scared of though, of like how it's gonna letter.
Speaker 1Yeah, she probably scared of what her mom is gonna say, or she probably honestly, she's probably scared that her mom is going to be like, I'm leaving them, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2And they really need her.
Speaker 1So she's like stuck between a rock and a hard place because she doesn't want her husband unhappy.
But yeah, family counseling, that's what it is, because I'm not I'm not gonna hold you.
Speaker 2I'm not about that.
Speaker 1If that were me, I'm not about to have my husband unhappy in his own home because he keeps butting heads with my mom.
First of all, I don't want none of my parents living with me.
Speaker 2I'm sorry.
Speaker 1And my mother in law she lives with us, Yeah she does, but we have enough space where it's like and then see my mother in law.
Speaker 2I'm I'm totally blessed.
My mother in law.
Don't give me no fucking problem.
Speaker 1She ain't no ranchit fucking ghetto ass or she don't be she Chris is not a mama's boy like he you know what I'm saying, And he loves his mother.
There's nothing wrong with being a mama's boy, but when you let that spill over into your relationship, that's when it becomes done.
Speaker 2When you jump you know what I'm saying.
Yeah, she's not.
Speaker 1No, and his mother is very encouraging, empowering, Like she's very encouraging, like and empowering to me where she and she even tells something like no, your wife comes first, Like it's not nothing's ever happened where she had to tell him, like to put me before her.
But that's what she always preached.
That's just what she lives by.
Anyway, she was a married woman, you know, three times.
But let's neither hear there.
That's how the Mexicans get that girl shit with one husband, don't do the second or.
Speaker 2Third one well, but.
Speaker 1She always preaches that ship to him, like listen, no, she preaches them that his wife comes first.
It's God your wife, then your children, and then your parents, then your you know, siblings, then your your your other family, but it's your it's God, your immediate family, and then the extension of the families.
Speaker 3You know what I mean.
Speaker 1I wonder they never got I wonder if they got along excuse me before.
Speaker 3She moved into though.
Speaker 1But to complete that thought, what I was saying about my whole death or real quick, what I was saying about my parents, I would never want them to move in me.
Well, I can live with my dad, but my mom is very spoiled.
I can't live with me and my mom the same person.
Speaker 3Because my my grandma she's.
Speaker 1Living with my parents now, but only because she has the more stable house.
Speaker 5My grandma she can't walk.
Speaker 1Okay, yeah, so that's different.
Yeah, yeah, that's different.
That's like I'm taking care of I have to take care of my mother.
You feel me, so like, that's that's different.
When it comes to if you up and you you mobile and you walking around.
You're getting smart and shit, and I know you take care of our four kids, but like you, come on, you gotta let him be a man.
Speaker 2You gotta let him be a dad.
Speaker 1You can, you can be the guardian and you can raise the kids as you see fit.
If you don't have no problem with it, fine, but you have to.
Yeah, they just have to be.
There has to be boundary set in that household family counseling.
If if she can't choose, because I know that's.
Speaker 3Got to be hard.
Speaker 1You want to choose, you gotta choose.
She doesn't want to have to choose between her husband and her mom.
Yeah, yeah, because you automatically supposed to choose your husband.
I mean, what do you feel about that?
You was really ask me something.
Speaker 3I wonder.
Speaker 5I wonder how if they got along before she moved in.
Mmmm, well, this is just like now more so overbearing.
Speaker 1It could be stressio, it could be stressed on all fucking because now I'm thinking about it, right, that's four kids that mother got to take care of.
Speaker 2There's four fucking grandkids.
Speaker 1I don't know what ages, I don't know how old they are, how young they are whatever, but that's four children.
I'm still not justifying the disrespect or you know, the butting heads of you know whatever, that the mom is giving off.
I'm not justifying justifying that part of it.
But I'm just saying more than likely she's older.
She's an older woman.
Yeah, yes, and she got four kids.
She probably cooked, she probably cleans.
If the parents got four jobs between them, they don't really have time to do shit else.
So the mother is probably cooking and cleaning.
And again, and I'm assuming because she didn't give me a lot of meat.
She gave me enough, but she didn't give me a lot of meat on the bone.
I'm assuming that, you know what I mean.
Everybody's frustrated, all right.
So that's the mom's frustration, all right.
The wife's frustration is no, let's go on it, okay, So the nannies first, the grandmother frustration all right, the four kids, okay, cooking, cleaning.
On top of that, she's on her she's an older age.
You know, she's set in her ways.
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2It's a lot.
Speaker 1I don't know how old or younger the kids are, like I just said, but maybe they are young.
Speaker 2Let's just assume they're young.
Speaker 1That's the that's a lot to keep up with four fucking children, all right, cool?
Then you got the dad.
He's exhausted.
They work, he works a full time job.
He comes home to four kids and a irritated mother in law for having four children, having his children all day.
Speaker 2He don't want to.
Speaker 1Feel that he's probably working, and he don't feel like coming home to her probably nagging yet.
And I got to come home to you.
You're not even my wife nagging.
You my wife mother, who take care of my kids nonetheless, but you still fucking nagging me.
And then not to mention the wife the stress of her three fucking jobs, and then dealing with having to play referee.
Speaker 2Between her mom and her fucking husband.
Speaker 1Still having to be present for her daughters, I mean for our children.
I don't know if their daughters or sons or whatever, but you know, having to be there, be present and just kind of beat a referee.
And then Shaney really got it all together because she hasn't even sat down and had a conversation with her mother yet because she's scared and nervous, but she don't want her husband upset with her, and that's surely gonna drive a wedge between them.
Speaker 5Yeah, it is because you're like, yo, why can't talk to you?
Speaker 2Yeah, like put it in her place.
If you love me, you'll listen to this commercial and then we'll be right back.
Speaker 1And the first thing that he probably would say, which is evident or his mom would be there, is I would never let my mother do that ship, you know what I'm saying.
And so, and that's gonna, that's gonna, that's gonna conjure up some guilt in her and it's just it's just not good.
So either family counseling or mom gotta go.
I've gotta go.
And I wonder if they're paying her, because because we paid my mother in law for Marlee's one Marlee is one fucking baby and she's a lot.
And she also takes care of my son too, you know what I mean.
So that's you know, she definitely helps take care of him because Ash is homeschool now, so she does a lot.
Speaker 2She cooks, she claims.
Now, we all have roles.
Speaker 1Like it ain't like I come home and just climbing the fucking bed, and like Chris, it ain't like Chris come home climbing the fucking bed.
Like no, we we all three of us cook clean.
Nobody has that will, you know.
But that's that's that's only two kids, and it's still a lot for me, Chris and my mother in law.
That's four children there for them.
So what if she's not getting paid?
I know she probably like, well what if she met that she's not getting paid and it's four jobs between them and she ain't getting no fucking money.
Speaker 3Yeah, Cause I'm just wondering.
Speaker 1Why if she's scared, she probably scared her mom's gonna say certain things or like like bring up certain things like well, well you guys haven't been doing this and thing.
Speaker 3Yeah, she's probably not a what do you call.
Speaker 1It a good mother?
No, she don't like arguments.
Speaker 3Whether she's not of.
Speaker 1Conversation yeah, yeah, the daughter is probably not confrontational.
Yeah, so that that's my advice.
Well what is my What the fuck is the advice?
Speaker 2I ain't never giving up family counselor or or.
Speaker 1Whatever circumstanstem Maybe I mean they're got jobs up.
Speaker 3Yeah, I couldn't say.
Speaker 1It Probably is easy for her to come to the house instead of dropping the kids off.
Speaker 2That is definitely easy.
Probably easy, or.
Speaker 3You know, try to the forgerbt y'all, mate, get a daycare or you know what.
Speaker 2They beefing so much.
Speaker 1They probably also beefing so fucking much because they're in the house with each other a lot more than the fucking mom because the mom had I mean, you know, the wife.
The wife has three fucking jobs, so when the fuck is she ever home?
So she really can't beat a referee.
That's probably why when she by the time she do get home, ship's already in disarray and they already been arguing all day and shit.
Yeah, and the mom is like, yo, you're negligent, like you or your.
Speaker 2Daughter like you, you know, need to watch her or whatever.
Speaker 3You know.
Speaker 1She didn't really expound on just how negligent he is or what she meant by that.
Speaker 3But or maybe the.
Speaker 1Or maybe the grandma is seeing stuff with the daughter and that she thinks that he needs to just talk to.
Speaker 5Her more or something like that.
Speaker 1Could be is a teenager and she just feels like she needs maybe something like that.
Maybe, but the bumpt the bump heads mad heavy.
That's very dramatic, So that means like it's some other shit like this nigga must be negligent, negligent yeah, like I don't feel like she's older, though I know you were saying like, well, what if she's older, like and she's no, I feel like the mom the grandmother, like a grandmother would really trip a grandmother in her right mind.
Speaker 2If the kids are younger and you're negligent with like.
Speaker 1A baby or like a yeah, like an infant or a toddler or you know, like somebody still young elementary, it's gonna sound fucked up.
Speaker 2Then don't say it.
What is it because you get a past, you're pregnant.
Speaker 1They exactly, it has to pregnancy.
They had all these jobs when they had time to fuck they why have all them?
Speaker 2I just feel like, wait a minute.
Speaker 1I'm just saying and this is coming from a pregnant woman over here talking about well, first of all, they married Taylor, so so what you all right?
Speaker 2So what you're saying, like why they have all the fucking kids?
Speaker 1If but they have the right No, no, no, no no, that was the story.
But I'm just saying, like they got four kids and four jobs in between the boat.
Why she got three, he got four.
That's a lot.
It's do what y'all want to do?
Like I know, the since mistakes happened whatever, and you mean, like, but I'm just saying, after this one that I'm about to have, I'm going to be and I've been more careful of everything.
Like I'm just saying, I'm it's the obstacles that I'm gonna have.
I'm a face though, like I'm not about to just.
Speaker 2Keep popping kids out like one after another.
Speaker 5Yeah boom if I look around after the.
Speaker 1First one and and everything and going, I wanted to go, you know what I got you?
Speaker 2You know, I feel you.
Speaker 1And then my thing is like I understand the four kids, but why the fuck do you have three jobs?
Speaker 2So she has to keep up?
Speaker 3Like she clearly.
Speaker 1Wondering though, like what's the what's the space two of like four kids.
Speaker 3And your mom's living there?
Speaker 2Is it?
Speaker 1Or y'all have a big enough house and that's why y'all gotta be Because I understand four kids definitely is weighing on the pocket for sure, but that's a job for each kid.
That the four kids ain't the only thing that they fucking slaving for.
Yeah, like that can't be it, Yeah what I'm saying, So maybe they do have they're just trying and keep up with their household too.
Then I know some of the listeners are probably like, well, why he don't have the three jobs?
Speaker 2I don't.
I don't think anybody should have fucking three jobs.
Speaker 1I mean in America, Like, come on, Like, I wonder what the jobs are that you get to do, Like what.
Speaker 2Do you get to do outside of work?
Speaker 1If you have three fucking jobs and you work in it's only twenty four hours in a day.
Kind But I wonder what job she has because technically, I mean, you're in a lot of things too, though lose your job.
Speaker 2Yeah, so I.
Speaker 1Know, m that it depends on what the which is only on weekends and then I do this Monday through Friday.
Speaker 2Yes, that's two jobs, and then I have other.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, yeah job unless she has all three nine ninety fives or whatever, like that's a lot.
But I'm saying she's like in this the work that we're in because I have multiple jobs too.
Yeah, yeah, I guess, but each in each and every one of them.
You're not like going to clock in and sit down and have to put in the hours nine to five, Like what if it's three nine to fives that she's saying she got Yeah, not runs her own business.
Because if she runs her own business, she can probably work from home.
Yeah, more than likely.
You know, when you do have a business, you can work from home.
Since the pandemic, that's been like the option of a lot of entrepreneurs.
Speaker 2So I don't know, but child, just get back to us, like.
Speaker 1Counsel, Yeah, family, talk to your mom, tell her your feelings towards it.
Speaker 3And because I feel like.
Speaker 1She all I'm getting is that she doesn't she's like that her mom and her husband are fighting.
Speaker 2Yeah, but but.
Speaker 5And then she also agreed with her mom too.
Speaker 2Though she agrees.
She said, like, and he is helg he is negligent.
Speaker 5So you also need to talk to your husband.
Speaker 2I think all three of them should have a fucking meeting.
I don't see.
Speaker 1That's how shit get misinterpreted, misconstrue Like if she sat down and have a conversation with my mother and then go sit down and have a conversation with her husband, what are the mom and the husband going to talk about?
Like, oh, well she told me, Oh, you ain't say that, well you talk to me.
No, no, no, it can't be that because then all the caddiness and shiit gonna come out and it's like nah, and it's like she's gonna play both sides.
Speaker 2You can't go to the mom and.
Speaker 1That like you all of what she doing and you can't kick it to your husband like he ain't doing nothing wrong.
Like it has to be an open conversation for transparency, honesty laid out there.
Speaker 2Listen.
Speaker 1Some of the best results come from the most uncomfortable conversations.
Look at what happened to pay a breakfast club period, you know what I'm saying, and all that, All that started from a fucking live right, Well, it started from motherfuckers keeping sh it front me or not doing a fucking job the way it's supposed to.
Speaker 2Be fucking done.
Speaker 1But right I went live and boom, and then it came to work the next day.
Speaker 2Who the fuck did I think I was?
Speaker 1But I had all dancy to coming like can you excuse me?
Speaker 2Bitch said you ain't like me?
And then now look a big fucking happy faith.
We're the best class that we've ever been class.
Speaker 1It's just like that, We've come to the end of yet another carefully reckless episode with your girl.
Speaker 2Just hilarious.
What I was doing.
Speaker 1I'll be fixing mess, say bye to Taylor y'all and say let's say see y'all.
Speaker 3Next week, See y'all next week.
Speaker 2All right, y'all.
Speaker 1Peace Can't Believe.
