I’m so glad you brought up the parenting comments about kids being disrespectful towards others and causing trauma for them as they become older. This is what makes me fearful for my nieces and for my own kids in the future. No matter how much you try to protect your kids, there is going to be people surrounding them that have cruel intentions. I wish that when topics like these came about, parents would take comments more into consideration and with an open mind rather than getting defensive and becoming upset. We need to watch out for our kids because as minimalistic as a mean comment or breaking glasses can seem to be. We all know that these type of behaviors usually lead to worse behavior if it is not addressed at a young age. I love your conversations 🫶🏽 thanks for openly sharing your experiences with us.
Omg yes. When my oldest started school, this little kid a little taller than him, told him he didn’t love his brother. We had just dropped him off, it was his second week of school. And we were telling him we love him and to have a good day. And my son tells his younger brother “I love you brother.” And the little mocoso he says “you don’t love your brother.” My son stopped and told him “yes i do, and he loves me too.” And the boy goes “no.” And punches my son. We saw it all happen and my momma bear came out and I yelled at the kid. And I told him touch my kid one more time ima go after your momma. And of course I calmed out because I can’t show my kids that side. But I was so mad. Come to find out the day before that, the little boy had kicked his teacher in the head when she bent down to pick up some papers he had crumbled and thrown while doing a tantrum. And since then I tell my son, ignore all the kids that seem like bullies to you. Play by yourself if you have to. You rather be your own company than having horrible company. Always be nice, kind, and never be a bully. But also never allow bullying around you. It’s so sad how some kids aren’t raised right or don’t get enough love at home that they have to try and make someone else hurt or miserable.
Middle school is where i learn my social skills and found my confidence to get to know people. Not until a girl was rude af in front of a group of her friends saying “Not everyone is your friend. Stop trying to get to know everyone!” Till this day, I struggle getting to know new people and get anxious not fitting in a group. Thanks Louie & yoatzi for opening up a conversation about what we go through in school ❤️
I’m a child development major and they teach us that a lot of children imitate and copy the behavior that they see at home. So maybe those kids see that that’s how their dad speaks to their mother or other women! Unfortunately it is a chain, but as parents if you’re able to recognize your behavior, you would be setting a great example for children since their brains are like sponges when they are growing up.
I can relate to Yoatzi about not having friends. I had friends but I never had like relationships with these so called friends. I’m 26 now and til this day I don’t have any friends. I also tend to love being alone or to myself so being married for about 8 yrs now was difficult at 1st because my husband is social and friendly and I am more to myself. As I’ve gotten older I honestly realized I don’t want any friends lol like I just don’t?? My husband, siblings & cousins are my friends.
Same! My husband is so outgoing and loves to talk and I just don't. I'm like you go and have fun but then he doesn't want to go without me... so I feel forced to make conversations with other wives and I hate it. I'm quiet so I end up looking stuck up. 😢
Please stop, why is this so me.. I’m also 26 and have struggled all my life to have real friends. I am also in a 8 year relationship and he is soo social, sometimes I think I’m boring since I’m more of the introvert.
Thank you guys soooo much for taking about the struggles we faced in school while we were young! I'm 26 now & honestly forgot about the times adults failed us. 2024, let's hold these adults accountable
I absolutely love this episode my poor daughter is currently 14 and has gone through the worst from kids to adults it’s crazy. And social media doesn’t help.
I wish I had parents who didn’t blame me for not having friends. When I’m sad and talk to my mom about it she always questions me. Trying to blame me for it

I don’t usually comment on videos but it was a different hearing how Louie felt growing up because I was the exact same way 😅 although I don’t really have any friends now it does get better after school I’m 18 making money and choosing what I want in life and I’d like to thank Louie because he was someone I always related to in different ways and appreciate him. I grew up watching him and even though I don’t know him personally I’m proud of where he is now.
thank you ! 41:57 I honestly really needed to hear this ☹️ i’m currently a sophomore in highschool experiencing the loneliness of having not one friend in that school..every single day i go sit in the library in one corner because i just feel so lost and lonely:( and i really really hope my future out of highschool takes me far ! They don’t see the fears i had , the tears i cry ..never ending cycle from waking up,go to school,not one person too enjoy my food with,not one person too talk too,i endure 8 hours of pure silence,and going home to the exact same treatment is so painful 💔just sucks knowing i have to do this for 2 more years😕 entered highschool without friends and leaving highschool with no friends and sometimes i start reminicing the good ole elementary days 🥲 why do we need to grow?:(
u should try to talk to other kids u see alone. I was the opposite. In high school I was very outgoing and had many friends but it was because I learned that talking to people is how you make friends. I used to go up to lonely kids and make them my friends and eventually I started to hang out with them. Ever since covid; people don’t talk anymore. It’s harder to socialize but trust me there’s other lonely kids that want friends like you do! it’s easier said than done but there’s nothing to lose the worst that can happen is get told that they don’t want to hang out and that’s fine! Trust me, even if you only meet one person it makes a difference. Having 1 close friend sometimes is better than having many
Say what you want about YOA but she is such a good sister to Louie💜🥺28:50 the faces she was making when Louie was telling her what the kids did is meeee. Cause I don’t play when it comes to my sister. It just gave me hella protective vibes and I love her more for it. This was such a good episode thank you for blessing us!
My son was was bullied in the 5th grade by a girl , one day she pushed him and he ended up with a bruise on his head . The school called me and I requested they remove the girl from his class, they did but then her friends continued bullying my son calling him names because they said it was his fault their friend was no longer in their class . This really affected my son and now I feel he has a hard time making friends .
I feel like those kids that would drink or get high or were “en malos pasos” in middle school just didn’t have parents that cared for them or were really going through it. And it shows y’all parents raised y’all well and loves you!
I'm so so happy and proud that inspite what you went through when you were young, the fact you guys are still so humble now and so real and such amazing friends and human beings is soooo inspiring and makes me so happy to see I love you guys😫😫😍😍😍💗💗💜💜💜
I hope your channels keeps growing this is one of my favorite podcasts. You guys always bringing good and funny vibes 🫶🏻Manifesting 200k subscribers by the end of 2024 ✨
I am the same Yoatzi. My mom couldn't stand up for us because of the language barrier. And we were low income. I have learned i have a voice, and i will stick up for my kids. Teaching children to have respect for others but also know how to receive respect.
Dude 😂 I made my daughter’s 3rd grade teacher cry!!!! 😂 I don’t play when it comes to my kids. Now they are in their 20’s so I’m ready to fight for my grand babies 💪🏽 😂
I love your podcast so much. I really appreciate how open you both are and for sharing such personal experiences. I also want to thank you for taking the time to use your platform for such a variety of topics. But your experiences of bullying and struggle with friendships and childhood trauma are something I relate to so much. And you are both right in how others make you feel about yourself when you're young. Does not determine or mean that that's going to be your life. And also that parents and adults need to teach their children how to be respectful to others and treat others how you would like to be treated. I also understand that not all children come from a stable and loving family dynamic at home, but I still don't think it's okay or an excuse for the adults around us, that are supposed to protect all children will do absolutely nothing or stay quite. I think this is why I struggle now as an adult to make friends and it makes me so sad because I really crave genuine friendship, but in the back of my mind, I always have my guard up and feel scared to open up because I feel people will not give the same energy or betrayal. I'm so afraid of meeting new people and exerting that energy it feels so comfortable to keep to myself, but I also feel that's a lonely way to live life.
I love this episode!! This really does just show how mean kids can be too. I work at an Elementary School, and some of these kids surprise me with how they act. It's also crazy though what schools administrators aren't allowed to do anymore to reprimand a child. It's hard to discipline a child at school if they're allowed to get away with stuff at home. Not to mention the kids who think they can do whatever or get away with whatever because their parent/relative works at the school they go to.
I agree my son was getting hit by a mocosa we told the school not much was done because it kept continuing we later found out her mom worked at the school when aunt told me I was pissed because it like Louie said they’re teachers pets or they have a relationship with them but we told them if something isn’t done about her actions we’d take them to the district board and we gladly said it with confidence cause we’re not taking that my son is such a sweetheart and considerate of kids feelings but mind you there only 4!
I can 100000000% relate! I was getting so sad because literally 3 times I've been approached at the gym, grocery store, and target for pyramid schemes. Each time I thought I could've made a new friend (which I don't have many of). After all that disappointment, I just tried to not let it get me down and last year I made a new friend while shopping at the mall! so the takeaway is that, never give up & it just takes time/patience to make friends organically :) don't let bad experiences close you off forever.
I had a bestfriend who told me straight up she wasn’t going to be my friend anymore when we would enter middle school… she had told me she was just done being lame and sweet and told me she wanted to be bad now. Crazy because we had so many memories together.
omg those lady’s that let their kids literally sexually harass you in front of them is crazy. That’s insanely inappropriate and wrong. If I were you I would feel extremely uncomfortable 😕
It hurts my heart that you guys went through horrors with people but it helps me appreciate you both so much more because even after all of that you guys are sweet and spread so much love. I also went through hell in HS and I never understood why when I was kind but as I grew I learned that it had nothing to do with me and it was only a reflection of how they felt about themselves.
Your childhood stories makes me sad. You guys are Warriors for making it this far in life. You survived the hell of highschool. Keep staying positive never let the negativity get to you. You guys have a beautiful heart and soul. Love you both. 🥰🥰
I love how you guys are so opened about bullying it’s crazy to think that bullying still exists and it’s sad but it all comes down to the parents. I was bullied through my whole elementary school years and the sad thing about it was I wanted friends so bad that I would buy them chips just so they can talk to me but after lunch they would go back to there normal bullying self’s. my parents didn’t make enough money and that was my money for the week for lunch bring me to tears every time I think about it but I I tried to erase my elementary schools so it’s blurry to me when people ask me about my elementary years. But I always told myself when I have kids I will teach the importance of not bullying. Thank you for sharing your stories 💖💜
This came out just in time because i recently broke up with two of my closest 'friends' 😢. I literally feel like my heart broke. Friendship is really a relationship. It's easier than a relationship but is still something you need to be invested in too.
Yessss ! People do not be educating their children these days, it’s crazy compared to how our older generations were raised. It’s saddening to see kids being rude, disrespectful & mal criados bc those are the future adults 🫠
Things like that happen because kids try so hard to try to fit in with the "cool" kids instead of being your genuine self. And I can of see it still now from yoatzi and louie they are trying to still trying to fit in.
25:13 gurl I feel you, when I was in middle school & in high-school, these kids would always have parties doing crazy 💩 and young girls getting pregnant (getting married or getting juvie) I've already graduated two years ago but I've heard it has gotten worse in the schools, teens disrespecting teachers/ fighting them and destroying school property. Like it's crazy dude 💀
Louie you’re fr my sister! All these experiences you went through in school are basically similar to my experience, yk we were all kids and yk we do stupid shit, even myself, but it’s the adults who don’t do shit that makes us feel invalidated. But we’re here now in our lives and no one is ever gonna do crazy shit to me again💯
I’m a school counselor at an elementary school, it’s actually my first year and those issues you were talking about, how kids would not only bully you but make you feel like shit about yourself still happen. And it’s so sad but these kids learn these behaviors at home, their siblings bully them or even their own parents. It suck’s that when we were in school we didn’t have an adult to listen to us or to help us, but that’s my job now. It gives me hope that there’s ppl like u guys talking about this subject because I know some of my students watch your podcast. I want you and Yoatzi to know, as I’m doing my work, I’m going to be thinking about little Louie and little Yoatzi and wishing I could’ve helped them too.
I loved this episode! Yoatzi I can relate. I switched schools when I was in 2nd grade and that transition was terrible. Kids were so mean. I never felt like I had true friends until the end of HS and thankfully they are still with me today (only 2). I would constantly change myself to fit the people around me so that I "was cool" and "fit in". So I struggled with my identity and personality so much.. Plus I was shy. It is SO much better after high school. I love you 2!!
Hi YOATZI an LOUIE! I am glad that you guys are sharing these "friend" stories. I am sorry you guys had to go through this, but I'm sure this helped you two know how to scope out the real friends from those that just want to be around you to benefit their own life. I remember I was always bullied and people being mean to me because I was chunky, and "ugly" segun. I was never confident, but I never let those dumb kids step all over me. I used to defend myself. If they put hands n me, i would too. If they called me names or told me mean things, I would too. UGH!!! I hate freaking kids that are so mean. Nut at the moment, I struggle to make friends too, its sad, because I want true genuine friends, but its so hard!!
I love you guys and hearing the good things you guys said about Oaxaca made me so happy!! I’m so proud of my culture and you both should definitely go one day! 💗
❤ loved the episode!! I likewise feel as if adults failed me when it came to bullying also so now for my daughter if she tells me someone is being rude towards her or she’s having an issue with an adult I ALWAYS stand up for my daughter no matter what bc I remember when that’s all I wanted from the adults around me so thank you for talking about this ❤
Hahahh bro, the fact I can relate to Yoatzi. I used to “host” kickbacks lmao. And word of mouth gave me a huge as party. We got ahold of wine coolers and we thought we were the shit…. Now i also look back and laugh at the shit.
This episode really resonated with me, & while I wouldn’t wish these feelings on anyone else, it was a bit reassuring knowing that others also feel this way especially like Yoatzi. I’m currently a sahm of 2 and it’s just that much more difficult for me to make friends; because the ones I had before turned out to not be genuine friends or we just grew apart. On the other hand, as a sahm I really don’t go out and so I feel deprived of opportunities to make friends at places like work. I used to get so sad bc I always felt like I wasn’t one to “attract” friends. Eventually, I just started to focus more on my little family and myself. I enjoy being alone and I’m not bothered at that fact and with time I have started to meet new people who I’ve just been able to connect with effortlessly. I still have yet to say I have a group of solid friends, but I’m proud of where I’m at and comfortable enough that if it doesn’t happen I’ll be okay. I have so many stories/experiences from “friendships” when I was in school. Lol, I remember when I was like in 6th grade the group of girls I used to consider my friends wrote me a note which I opened to read when school was over and it basically said they didn’t want to be my friends anymore. Like Yoatzi, I also was caught off guard bc I had never done anything. I just think at the time the things those girls valued were looks and materialistic things. I didn’t have much and tbh I didn’t have my “glow up” til after HS haha. So yeah, it was very much that I feel. I guess I just didn’t have the Aeropostale and Hollister shirts to fit in back then lol 🥲😂
I can relate to Yoa, I remember bitches in middle school would backstab me & one time 2 girls kicked me out their locker bc I was a “bad friend” whole time they were just gaslighting me into thinking the worst of myself. I feel like now as an adult I have trouble making deeper connections with friends or idk how to be close etc. or if I’m doing too much 😢 it sucksss
Fr i'm a junior in high school and I consider myself a really friendly person and kind person like if u need something I'll give it to u even if it's my last pencil rn it's just been me and my twin sister. But I'm a really shy person but if u get to know me better I'm a totally different person. These days u really don't know who's ur friend's. I even told a friend of mine do u tell someone if u want to be friends with them or u just assume.
Literallllllly after your episode talking about making your bed in the morning, unintentionally- every morning, onlyyy recently, ive had my bed every single morning. Im all like “idk whats gotten into meeeeeUUH” Thank you guys lolllll
It’s a scary world we live in 😢 I had my son come up to me one day and told me one of his classmates kept trying to trip him while playing and the kid told him he was going to drop him. I messaged his teacher and told her about what happened and thankfully she acted quick and had the kid apologize to my baby and now this year they are friends lol. But I’m sorry I told my child if they bully you speak up if nothing changes after you speak up and the school doesn’t do anything defend yourself 👊🏻 👊🏻
I live in apartments and there’s bullies here and it honestly sad that the parents don’t notice how rude they are to other kids can’t even imagine at school.
When Louie told his story at minute 28:00 I remembered when I was in the second or third grade, I brought in this new toy/pen that my family had gotten me. It was this jumbo ass pen, I mean at that age it was probably the size of my torso and had to hold it w two hands 😂😂 (idk how I fit it in my backpack) but anyways, some turd little kid asked if he could borrow it and of course my little self didn’t want to be mean and I said yes.. he took it home and this fucker completely broke it. I was so sad.
Ever sense the last episode I've been making my bed n lowky I do see that I'm more up n going n getting stuff done ☺️ I've also been planning n setting timers which has helped so much!!!
I also realized that I didn't have much "friends" growing up. I knew people but they weren't ever my friends either. I always thought I was popular in middle school but I don't even talk to anyone either lol. my family also didn't grow up on much but its great hearing similar stuff with y'all. but on a side note, someone count how many times Louie says "like" 😂.
Yess I feel the same bye bye christmas decor lol 😂 but it’s okay yoatziii ay viene valentines, easter maybe y’all can decorate for that 🥰 also where did you get the mushroom fromm 😩😩
Fav episode!!!! I can totally relate, same thing happened to me in middle school! My friend group literally stopped talking to me and ignored me out of the blue one day. I too think it was because they were doing things I def wasn’t doing at that age.
My FAVORITE episode! I’m the same way. no one is going to mess with my kids & as far as friends, I don’t go looking for it. If I happen to meet someone who really wants to hangout then I’m down but I’m not trying to make any friends lol most of the time I’m good with hanging with my kids
Yoatzi!!! I can relate so much 🥲 I feel like I had different friends every grade! Thankfully I have 2 close friends from hs but I def went through a lot of friend groups 😅😂
I am the type of mom that will not play! I will never allow my kids to bully or be rude to other kids! There was this little girl in my daughter 5th grade class who is lower income and I found out that my daughter and her “friends” were making fun of her! Soooo I made my daughter pick out her favorite outfit and shoes to match and then took her to school and made her give it to the little girl! And I told her and her friends that we should never judge people because we never know what their life is like or what they are going through! And how would they like it if someone did that to them! And then sure as shit their 3rd day of 6th grade my daughter and her friends were eating lunch and this group of 8th graders dumped milk on them and was making pig noises! Now don’t get me wrong THIS MOMMA WENT HAMMMMMMM on their parents in that meeting lol but I also made this a teaching lesson to my daughter! Now! She is always helping other people and making better decisions! AS PARENTS ITS OUR JOB TO SHAPE THE PERSON THEY WILL BECOME! ❤
@louie omg same! I’ve always had a craving to meet new people and have a best friend but then can’t allow myself to get close to ppl bc I am picky and so guarded. loved and related to this pod so so so much 🫠🫶🏼🩷
I love this episode, it makes me feel not so alone about not having many friends. I'm turning 21 soon & wanna do something big & fun for the 21st but I don't even have a handful of baddie friends to go out with (': If any baddies wanna be friends..
Yoatzi your hair this episode 🤩🤩 I always had a hard time making friends. Especially being Latina. I never fit in with other Latinos and especially not white 🥲 People would always say I would talk shit about them but I only did after someone else told me they talked about me. I cut off the middle person bc she was fake af playing both sides. I ended senior year with only my bf. Still don’t have any especially as a mom. I thank God he blessed me with 5 sisters and 7 brothers 💜
Also I love how you talk about friendships honeslty, as I grew up the one thing I learned for sure us thay all you need is to be surrounded by real friends, like as long as they are real and non judgmental and truly love you, all you need is at least 1 and you can do anything. So im extremely happy you guys now have people in your life (even if its only a handful) that you can truly rely on. You don't need a lot, just as long as they are real and true💜 Also F those bitches that took advantage of YOA😫😫💗💗💗
I love this ❤️ you guys are so right… there’s no real friends in middle school or high school 😆 I always gotta tell this to my daughters she’s almost going in middle school and I’m afraid they get bullied like I did but for sure I’m be there to defend them😁I’m 27 and I only have 2 friends 🫶🏼🥰
Love the topic about the disrespectful kids, on the first week of school my son was getting bullied trust me i was on class dojo at 11pm messaging the teacher and waiting at the school at 7am 😂

The school called me and I requested they remove the girl from his class, they did but then her friends continued bullying my son calling him names because they said it was his fault their friend was no longer in their class . This really affected my son and now I feel he has a hard time making friends .
I feel like those kids that would drink or get high or were “en malos pasos” in middle school just didn’t have parents that cared for them or were really going through it. And it shows y’all parents raised y’all well and loves you!
I'm so so happy and proud that inspite what you went through when you were young, the fact you guys are still so humble now and so real and such amazing friends and human beings is soooo inspiring and makes me so happy to see I love you guys😫😫😍😍😍💗💗💜💜💜
I hope your channels keeps growing this is one of my favorite podcasts. You guys always bringing good and funny vibes 🫶🏻Manifesting 200k subscribers by the end of 2024 ✨
I am the same Yoatzi. My mom couldn't stand up for us because of the language barrier. And we were low income. I have learned i have a voice, and i will stick up for my kids. Teaching children to have respect for others but also know how to receive respect.
No literally like louie said, if you’re in highschool your life is way different and you really start to live
Dude 😂 I made my daughter’s 3rd grade teacher cry!!!! 😂 I don’t play when it comes to my kids. Now they are in their 20’s so I’m ready to fight for my grand babies 💪🏽 😂
I met Yoatzi the other day & she is the most sweetest ever 🥺💕
I been waiting this week to watch your podcast start off my day off right you guys never fail entertaining us 🩷made my day even better
I love your podcast so much. I really appreciate how open you both are and for sharing such personal experiences. I also want to thank you for taking the time to use your platform for such a variety of topics. But your experiences of bullying and struggle with friendships and childhood trauma are something I relate to so much. And you are both right in how others make you feel about yourself when you're young. Does not determine or mean that that's going to be your life. And also that parents and adults need to teach their children how to be respectful to others and treat others how you would like to be treated. I also understand that not all children come from a stable and loving family dynamic at home, but I still don't think it's okay or an excuse for the adults around us, that are supposed to protect all children will do absolutely nothing or stay quite. I think this is why I struggle now as an adult to make friends and it makes me so sad because I really crave genuine friendship, but in the back of my mind, I always have my guard up and feel scared to open up because I feel people will not give the same energy or betrayal. I'm so afraid of meeting new people and exerting that energy it feels so comfortable to keep to myself, but I also feel that's a lonely way to live life.
I love this episode!! This really does just show how mean kids can be too. I work at an Elementary School, and some of these kids surprise me with how they act. It's also crazy though what schools administrators aren't allowed to do anymore to reprimand a child. It's hard to discipline a child at school if they're allowed to get away with stuff at home.
Not to mention the kids who think they can do whatever or get away with whatever because their parent/relative works at the school they go to.
I agree my son was getting hit by a mocosa we told the school not much was done because it kept continuing we later found out her mom worked at the school when aunt told me I was pissed because it like Louie said they’re teachers pets or they have a relationship with them but we told them if something isn’t done about her actions we’d take them to the district board and we gladly said it with confidence cause we’re not taking that my son is such a sweetheart and considerate of kids feelings but mind you there only 4!
I can 100000000% relate! I was getting so sad because literally 3 times I've been approached at the gym, grocery store, and target for pyramid schemes. Each time I thought I could've made a new friend (which I don't have many of). After all that disappointment, I just tried to not let it get me down and last year I made a new friend while shopping at the mall! so the takeaway is that, never give up & it just takes time/patience to make friends organically :) don't let bad experiences close you off forever.
I had a bestfriend who told me straight up she wasn’t going to be my friend anymore when we would enter middle school… she had told me she was just done being lame and sweet and told me she wanted to be bad now. Crazy because we had so many memories together.
omg those lady’s that let their kids literally sexually harass you in front of them is crazy. That’s insanely inappropriate and wrong. If I were you I would feel extremely uncomfortable 😕
I can say I learned a lot about fake friends and you don’t really need a lot of friends but having one real friend is enough
It hurts my heart that you guys went through horrors with people but it helps me appreciate you both so much more because even after all of that you guys are sweet and spread so much love.
I also went through hell in HS and I never understood why when I was kind but as I grew I learned that it had nothing to do with me and it was only a reflection of how they felt about themselves.
Such a good episode, I feel just like this with the whole friendship part
Your childhood stories makes me sad. You guys are Warriors for making it this far in life. You survived the hell of highschool. Keep staying positive never let the negativity get to you. You guys have a beautiful heart and soul. Love you both. 🥰🥰
I love how you guys are so opened about bullying it’s crazy to think that bullying still exists and it’s sad but it all comes down to the parents. I was bullied through my whole elementary school years and the sad thing about it was I wanted friends so bad that I would buy them chips just so they can talk to me but after lunch they would go back to there normal bullying self’s. my parents didn’t make enough money and that was my money for the week for lunch bring me to tears every time I think about it but I I tried to erase my elementary schools so it’s blurry to me when people ask me about my elementary years. But I always told myself when I have kids I will teach the importance of not bullying. Thank you for sharing your stories 💖💜
This came out just in time because i recently broke up with two of my closest 'friends' 😢. I literally feel like my heart broke. Friendship is really a relationship. It's easier than a relationship but is still something you need to be invested in too.
HES ME 😭about the glass breaking an stepping on them and the whole house burning 😭😭😭😭
Yessss ! People do not be educating their children these days, it’s crazy compared to how our older generations were raised. It’s saddening to see kids being rude, disrespectful & mal criados bc those are the future adults 🫠
Things like that happen because kids try so hard to try to fit in with the "cool" kids instead of being your genuine self. And I can of see it still now from yoatzi and louie they are trying to still trying to fit in.
Patiently waiting for this weeks pretty not smart.
Their family dog ruby passed away :(
@@Tsa12345 oh no I'm sorry. Now I feel like a jerk. I'm sorry for yalls loss. 🙏🏼
@@Tsa12345 thank you for letting me know.
@@doloresmartinez2551 no no worries !! I was the same so I went to their insta and saw it.
25:13 gurl I feel you, when I was in middle school & in high-school, these kids would always have parties doing crazy 💩 and young girls getting pregnant (getting married or getting juvie)
I've already graduated two years ago but I've heard it has gotten worse in the schools, teens disrespecting teachers/ fighting them and destroying school property. Like it's crazy dude 💀
I absolutely LOVE this podcast! Y’all are killing it. I look forward to it every week. ❤
Louie you’re fr my sister! All these experiences you went through in school are basically similar to my experience, yk we were all kids and yk we do stupid shit, even myself, but it’s the adults who don’t do shit that makes us feel invalidated. But we’re here now in our lives and no one is ever gonna do crazy shit to me again💯
Louie the glasses at school got me so sad 🥲🥲
My name is Isabel too lol love you guyssss! My favvvv podcast!
where can i get the mushrooms plushie omg
I’m a school counselor at an elementary school, it’s actually my first year and those issues you were talking about, how kids would not only bully you but make you feel like shit about yourself still happen. And it’s so sad but these kids learn these behaviors at home, their siblings bully them or even their own parents. It suck’s that when we were in school we didn’t have an adult to listen to us or to help us, but that’s my job now. It gives me hope that there’s ppl like u guys talking about this subject because I know some of my students watch your podcast. I want you and Yoatzi to know, as I’m doing my work, I’m going to be thinking about little Louie and little Yoatzi and wishing I could’ve helped them too.
LOVE the pod sm!🫶🏽🥰🩷 Super proud how far yall came!🫶🏽 keep posting babes Thursday are my favs!🤭💕💕
YAY! my favorite people making my day🥹🫶🏽! i LOVE YOUU PNS!!! been supporting you guys for 5 years. thank you for putting smiles on everyone ❤️
Awe i just want to give louie a big hug 💜
I loved this episode! Yoatzi I can relate. I switched schools when I was in 2nd grade and that transition was terrible. Kids were so mean. I never felt like I had true friends until the end of HS and thankfully they are still with me today (only 2). I would constantly change myself to fit the people around me so that I "was cool" and "fit in". So I struggled with my identity and personality so much.. Plus I was shy. It is SO much better after high school.
I love you 2!!
Hi YOATZI an LOUIE! I am glad that you guys are sharing these "friend" stories. I am sorry you guys had to go through this, but I'm sure this helped you two know how to scope out the real friends from those that just want to be around you to benefit their own life. I remember I was always bullied and people being mean to me because I was chunky, and "ugly" segun. I was never confident, but I never let those dumb kids step all over me. I used to defend myself. If they put hands n me, i would too. If they called me names or told me mean things, I would too. UGH!!! I hate freaking kids that are so mean. Nut at the moment, I struggle to make friends too, its sad, because I want true genuine friends, but its so hard!!
I love you guys and hearing the good things you guys said about Oaxaca made me so happy!! I’m so proud of my culture and you both should definitely go one day! 💗
❤ loved the episode!! I likewise feel as if adults failed me when it came to bullying also so now for my daughter if she tells me someone is being rude towards her or she’s having an issue with an adult I ALWAYS stand up for my daughter no matter what bc I remember when that’s all I wanted from the adults around me so thank you for talking about this ❤
Hahahh bro, the fact I can relate to Yoatzi. I used to “host” kickbacks lmao. And word of mouth gave me a huge as party. We got ahold of wine coolers and we thought we were the shit…. Now i also look back and laugh at the shit.
What's going on?😢 it's Friday and there's no new podcast video🥺
Their childhood dog, Ruby, just passed 😞🥺
No post 😢
This episode really resonated with me, & while I wouldn’t wish these feelings on anyone else, it was a bit reassuring knowing that others also feel this way especially like Yoatzi. I’m currently a sahm of 2 and it’s just that much more difficult for me to make friends; because the ones I had before turned out to not be genuine friends or we just grew apart. On the other hand, as a sahm I really don’t go out and so I feel deprived of opportunities to make friends at places like work. I used to get so sad bc I always felt like I wasn’t one to “attract” friends. Eventually, I just started to focus more on my little family and myself. I enjoy being alone and I’m not bothered at that fact and with time I have started to meet new people who I’ve just been able to connect with effortlessly. I still have yet to say I have a group of solid friends, but I’m proud of where I’m at and comfortable enough that if it doesn’t happen I’ll be okay.
I have so many stories/experiences from “friendships” when I was in school. Lol, I remember when I was like in 6th grade the group of girls I used to consider my friends wrote me a note which I opened to read when school was over and it basically said they didn’t want to be my friends anymore. Like Yoatzi, I also was caught off guard bc I had never done anything. I just think at the time the things those girls valued were looks and materialistic things. I didn’t have much and tbh I didn’t have my “glow up” til after HS haha. So yeah, it was very much that I feel. I guess I just didn’t have the Aeropostale and Hollister shirts to fit in back then lol 🥲😂
Bring on YAMIII 😭🫶🏽🫶🏽
I can relate to Yoa, I remember bitches in middle school would backstab me & one time 2 girls kicked me out their locker bc I was a “bad friend” whole time they were just gaslighting me into thinking the worst of myself. I feel like now as an adult I have trouble making deeper connections with friends or idk how to be close etc. or if I’m doing too much 😢 it sucksss
Love yalls podcast! Keep making more these r so fun to watch !
I love you Louie and Yoatzi you guys always brighten my day with your podcast every single time I'm waiting for new episode I love you guys so much❤
Fr i'm a junior in high school and I consider myself a really friendly person and kind person like if u need something I'll give it to u even if it's my last pencil rn it's just been me and my twin sister. But I'm a really shy person but if u get to know me better I'm a totally different person. These days u really don't know who's ur friend's. I even told a friend of mine do u tell someone if u want to be friends with them or u just assume.
watching this on my lunch break ! my best stress reliever is this podcast 💗💗💗
Me to. I’m on lunch!
Literallllllly after your episode talking about making your bed in the morning, unintentionally- every morning, onlyyy recently, ive had my bed every single morning. Im all like “idk whats gotten into meeeeeUUH” Thank you guys lolllll
It’s been such a hard week at work, I feel so much better after watching your guys podcast 🩷💜
It’s a scary world we live in 😢 I had my son come up to me one day and told me one of his classmates kept trying to trip him while playing and the kid told him he was going to drop him. I messaged his teacher and told her about what happened and thankfully she acted quick and had the kid apologize to my baby and now this year they are friends lol. But I’m sorry I told my child if they bully you speak up if nothing changes after you speak up and the school doesn’t do anything defend yourself 👊🏻 👊🏻
I live in apartments and there’s bullies here and it honestly sad that the parents don’t notice how rude they are to other kids can’t even imagine at school.
WORD OF THE CENTURY
SIMULTANEOUSLY ‼️😂
I'm dead with the title 😂💀 I read it in louies voice 😂❤️ I can't wait to hear this one lol!
When Louie told his story at minute 28:00 I remembered when I was in the second or third grade, I brought in this new toy/pen that my family had gotten me. It was this jumbo ass pen, I mean at that age it was probably the size of my torso and had to hold it w two hands 😂😂 (idk how I fit it in my backpack) but anyways, some turd little kid asked if he could borrow it and of course my little self didn’t want to be mean and I said yes.. he took it home and this fucker completely broke it. I was so sad.
Ever sense the last episode I've been making my bed n lowky I do see that I'm more up n going n getting stuff done ☺️ I've also been planning n setting timers which has helped so much!!!
I also realized that I didn't have much "friends" growing up. I knew people but they weren't ever my friends either. I always thought I was popular in middle school but I don't even talk to anyone either lol. my family also didn't grow up on much but its great hearing similar stuff with y'all. but on a side note, someone count how many times Louie says "like" 😂.
6:06 his laugh😭😭😭😂
Happy Friday guys you guys always make my day when you guys upload
Yess I feel the same bye bye christmas decor lol 😂 but it’s okay yoatziii ay viene valentines, easter maybe y’all can decorate for that 🥰 also where did you get the mushroom fromm 😩😩
Fav episode!!!! I can totally relate, same thing happened to me in middle school! My friend group literally stopped talking to me and ignored me out of the blue one day. I too think it was because they were doing things I def wasn’t doing at that age.
Dude i was cleaning when I heard Louie say lucero I jumped like I haven’t heard of anyone else with my name omg😭💀
Love you guys so much!! Was having such a bad day before this. So happy it’s thursday 🥹
Y’all need to start dropping names cuz some people ain’t shi 😤
“Your stupid ass left it on for 3 weeks” 😂😭
Yesssssssssss Podcast came in clutchhhhh ❤❤❤❤ Thank youuuu
My FAVORITE episode! I’m the same way. no one is going to mess with my kids & as far as friends, I don’t go looking for it. If I happen to meet someone who really wants to hangout then I’m down but I’m not trying to make any friends lol most of the time I’m good with hanging with my kids
Yoatzi!!! I can relate so much 🥲 I feel like I had different friends every grade! Thankfully I have 2 close friends from hs but I def went through a lot of friend groups 😅😂
Ive been waiting all morning for this episode to stream I'm so excited! Its been a rough day but this is gonna cheer me up💞 I love y'all!!!
This episode should have just been titled “TIKTOK SHOPUH” 😭😭😭
I am the type of mom that will not play! I will never allow my kids to bully or be rude to other kids! There was this little girl in my daughter 5th grade class who is lower income and I found out that my daughter and her “friends” were making fun of her! Soooo I made my daughter pick out her favorite outfit and shoes to match and then took her to school and made her give it to the little girl! And I told her and her friends that we should never judge people because we never know what their life is like or what they are going through! And how would they like it if someone did that to them! And then sure as shit their 3rd day of 6th grade my daughter and her friends were eating lunch and this group of 8th graders dumped milk on them and was making pig noises! Now don’t get me wrong THIS MOMMA WENT HAMMMMMMM on their parents in that meeting lol but I also made this a teaching lesson to my daughter! Now! She is always helping other people and making better decisions! AS PARENTS ITS OUR JOB TO SHAPE THE PERSON THEY WILL BECOME! ❤
I’ve been waiting alllll week for this!! To the gym while listening to my favs ❤️❤️
@louie omg same! I’ve always had a craving to meet new people and have a best friend but then can’t allow myself to get close to ppl bc I am picky and so guarded. loved and related to this pod so so so much 🫠🫶🏼🩷
Omg Louie resembles don wi and yoa her mom so much in this video 😭😭🥰
I love this episode, it makes me feel not so alone about not having many friends. I'm turning 21 soon & wanna do something big & fun for the 21st but I don't even have a handful of baddie friends to go out with (': If any baddies wanna be friends..
Literally watching y’all at school 😂
Realized it was Thursday & I sprinted over here!😭
Yoatzi your hair this episode 🤩🤩
I always had a hard time making friends. Especially being Latina. I never fit in with other Latinos and especially not white 🥲 People would always say I would talk shit about them but I only did after someone else told me they talked about me. I cut off the middle person bc she was fake af playing both sides. I ended senior year with only my bf. Still don’t have any especially as a mom. I thank God he blessed me with 5 sisters and 7 brothers 💜
Also I love how you talk about friendships honeslty, as I grew up the one thing I learned for sure us thay all you need is to be surrounded by real friends, like as long as they are real and non judgmental and truly love you, all you need is at least 1 and you can do anything. So im extremely happy you guys now have people in your life (even if its only a handful) that you can truly rely on. You don't need a lot, just as long as they are real and true💜
Also F those bitches that took advantage of YOA😫😫💗💗💗
I already know this video going to be a good one 💜🩷
I love this ❤️ you guys are so right…
there’s no real friends in middle school or high school 😆 I always gotta tell this to my daughters she’s almost going in middle school and I’m afraid they get bullied like I did but for sure I’m be there to defend them😁I’m 27 and I only have 2 friends 🫶🏼🥰
YOATZI!!!!! My loveeeeeeeee, my mouth dropped when u said ur hair curler was on for 3 weeeeeeekssssUUUUHH
I love Thursdays
