I know what your friend is dealing with. I’m an only child and I lost my mother 3 weeks after my 4th birthday, then I lost my dad 2 weeks after my 29th birthday. I was too young to actually remember my mom, but my dad was my rock and I miss him to this day. My friends have been my savior because I wasn’t particularly close to all of my family, but I’m very close to one of my cousins these days.
My son got his first car when he was 18 in 2015 (his second half of high school). When we were searching before buying one, he wanted a Dodge Charger or BMW and I told him that you choose a car that we can afford or you don't get a car. He settled on getting a Kia Optima. He got into an accident with it a year and half later. We got it fixed and it is still going to this day. He sold it to his wife's sister; now it's her first car. Side Note: I really like your bedroom lamps. If you don't mind me asking where did you buy them?
Thanks for sharing your story, we’re not the only ones telling him to get an affordable used car as his first car. We will see if we can find the lamp link.
🙏Sending condolences. Cherish the time you have with your parents. Both of my parents are deceased.😞 I love seeing footage of how different people / cultures / religions do funerals, celebrations of life, memorials, and home going celebrations for their loved ones. There is no right or wrong way. 🙏
I agree. You try to give the kids the right information to make their life easier, but at the end of the day, they will do whatever they want. I wonder if your son expects you guys to pick up his slack when those bills start hitting him. Most college students are struggling. My sister just gave her kids her old cars and one of them bought a used car. They were happy to have a decent car.
Ohhhhhh our hearts are with you. This too shall pass. I can't even wrap my mind about how I would be and feel as parents. Prayers for ur family issues of the heart. Get well Gypsy and Muuush (sp) «We live by the clock Yet we rarely cherish time»
Used cars are soooo inflated in price right now. Try to find a private party low mileage car like a Toyota or Honda that wont cost you all the money you will wish you had. My Honda Element just turned 20!
My Dad as a firefighter and used car lot owner, lived through 3 teenager; always said the first car should be a beater. It will get beat up. Get an Honda or Toyota. They stand up to getting beat up.
Love this, love what y’all doing by. I always tell my kids, your parents are speaking for the future you. We can tell you what’s on the roads we drive down so to speak in order to give you a heads up of what direction you headed in (choices you making). They think we old or don’t know what they going through but nothing new u see the sun. We went through the same stuff and can help them make a better choice.
Sorry to hear about your son hope all is well. I’m literally across the lake from you all I’ve been following you for 6mths now in you guys stay that close to me wow. Lol
@@TenajTino yes I was shocked I notice when you guys was filming when you were in backyard in you look across the lake u see the blue baby pool in the backyard of my house lol
I was in my 30s when i got my 1st new used car but my 1st car i got for a couple hundred an old buick that needed a screwdriver to turn it on and off 😂. I was 18 on my own i left for college and never came back to my parents house.
Im so glad hes ok ..see aren't you gld you didn't leave him alone while you were out of the country. He's not mature enough bebe. I get you on the world being tough and they need to be toughened up. As far as life transitions, its always hard. I worry about my son when my time come bcus he is an only child. Its part of the reason i had him go up a lil sooner. He can cook clean wash clothes he's financially responsible and my son got his own car brand new. He researched things on his own but asked my opinion bcus he knows i know a lot about cars and dealing with dealers. However, stuff is different since the plannedemic. Cash is meaningless now. I always utilize cash is king. Now im in a stage 1 area with all this new age stuff.
Thanks for the advice ❤️ I’m glad we didn’t go anywhere…this time. He wasn’t ready for off campus life yet. We trying to tell him to pay cash and don’t finance yourself into debt. 💸
Worst call in the world. Glad your son was ok. Got one from my daughter about a week ago. It was a miss the jerk ran her off road head on. Thank God she and her friend were good just shaken up.
My only child had to bus tables to buy his car. We go to pick up at 16 and I take the keys. Need to buy insurance and then can have keys. Month later he had purchased. Rules- one ticket, even parking car gets locked up. You will not kill yourself until an adult and I can not stop you. Well he is 51, we laugh about it but he appreciates being taught responsibilities!!
Im thinking, help him with the first purchase because you have scammer car dealerships and also more than ever pay attention to the brand of xar because some are trash. Look up on UA-cam about what cars are great for first time buyers. There's a video on here about which car brands are not very good. Hondas are definitely a good brand. If I can find the video that I watched, I will post it. I mean maybe Tino already knows which cars that he should be looking e. But definitely help him. Sorry for running on. 😂😂😂😂
My daughter has a Kia and it is great on gas. But it has also been said that they're cars that can be stolen so....🤷🏽 But she bought one of those contraptions that you could put on the steering wheel to lock it or something like that. But the car is great.
If D doesnt listen with the information yall giving him he will have to pay something I call a “choice tax”. He has the info and the tools yall giving him but if he doesn’t use the info and makes a bad choice he will pay a choice tax. When a person doesn’t have the information or knowledge then it’s a dumb tax. Both will teach you a lesson and it behooves one to take the lessons and gain wisdom from them because you surely paid for that lesson just like a college degree etc.
Prayers for your family's protection...❤
❤️Ty so much 🙏🏽

If you guys are just going to keep catching him when he fall. You might as well make the decision for him.
No catching here…
These kids want extra stuff nowadays. I was happy with anything.
We are guidance counselors because they will decide on their own.❤
Yes…all we can do is advise and counsel ❤️
Thanks for your sharing ! We hope you like it!
Love it!
“ Love tap?! How you love tap something?” 😂Thankfully, your son is okay. 🙏🏾✨✨✨
Exactly…love tap…😡
Ohhhhhh our hearts are with you. This too shall pass.

Sound like you got a deal with your Honda 😀 we’re trying to get to tell him that as well…

Exactly 👍🏽 what I’m saying…but you know how teens can be…we were there once of course 😆
Unfortunately, having a sibling doesn’t always help the grieving in the loss of a parent because everyone grieves differently
Correct 👍🏽 ❤️
FAM prayers are sent I hope your son is ok anything I, or we can do let us know we got you
Ty 🙏🏽
@@TenajTino great to hear

Wow..😮..thanks for sharing…we all have a first used car that had some kind of weird thing I’m sure. I had an issue starting my car as well.
👍🤩💝Hey Family, OMG I’m hoping a “love tap” means everyone is okay & there aren’t any real damages.🙏💝
His version of love tap is not our version of love tap…nobody’s really 😡
@@TenajTino - 😱🙏 I’m praying. This cliffhanger is very suspenseful. We look forward to an update. 🙏💝

Yes, my first car only lasted 6 months 😂, but it looked good 😆
Oh no! 😟 almost everyone has a first used car story. It a part of life and milestone.
Worst call in the world. Glad your son was ok. Got one from my daughter about a week ago. It was a miss the jerk ran her off road head on. Thank God she and her friend were good just shaken up.
Oh wow 😮 glad they are okay. Everytime he pulls out the driveway I hate hearing the phone ring…and eventually it came true. 😟😔
@@TenajTino thank you. I pray God’s blessings over your son in Jesus name❤️

Hello 👋🏽 no it’s okay, thanks for sharing. He has stopped searching for a car due to the accident as of now.
Thanks…I’ve been telling him to try a Kia, but you know kids
He did t mention it when was on the phone 🤦🏽♀️

I feel bad for your kids. That is smothering.
