My 4 year old granddaughter said she wasn't gonna pay no bill, that it's on me, knowing full well she flicking on and off my damn lights. Electricity is high in the summertime.
Let me tell yall something these women are shedding light into black culture that has never been shed before. If you don’t know this is the struggle of all black kids before cell phones
Ok and there was a time were there were no remote controls us kids we were the remote controls ..u had to go outside n play no hanging around in the house in ur room with closed doors..no mam....
Before cell phones? Niece still complains when she has to find the remote because Grandma lost it 🤣🤣🤣 Honey in a second you will be the remote it's in your best interest to find it boo
No!! Rolling your eyes!! My mama was get me some water. Didn't ask for ice. I bring just water and she askes me where is the ice??? You didn't ask for ice! Ass whooping 😂😂😂 From then on Always put Ice in the damn water!!! I love you mama!!! I miss you everyday ❤❤❤
Atleast she said batteries. Nothing worse than trying to find "the thing" and having extremely vague if any clues what it is and you carefully tearing up the house to find anything at all
Everybody with a black older woman in their life has heard that...and you are workin my last nerve or i have 1 good nerve left and you are workin it, im dying
It's funny how the mind works. During those times with my Mom, I remember going to my room and coming up with my own future rules for my kids. I remember saying: 1. I will not tell my kids when or how long I think they should cry. 2. I will not expect my kids to smile when getting lectured by me. As long as there wasnt any eyerolling or glaring, I wouldn't care. 3. I will not spank unless it was a major issue. So, atleast I knew what I wasnt going to do as a parent 🤷🏾♀️😏
@Mary Smith James I know! It seems to be universal. We also got told to "hold it" or "stop spreading your mouth" if we started crying. And if you started crying before the beating you got asked "what you crying for, me nah even start yet" The memories😣😅
"That remote is clearly well within her own reach. She's using a frustration tactic to get Reiniece to show some attitude" 😭 I hate when parents do that like don't do something to get a reaction out your children and punish them for reacting with something as small as a facial expression. This is too relatable 😩
I used to do this weird lip thing and My grandmother used to say "fix your face fo' I slap it off". It worked but I got older and realized she never hit me no way WHAT WAS I SCARED FOR!! 😂😂😂
I thought this only happened to 1st gen Americans. I remember my ex girlfriend's Nigerian momma called her into the room for her to hand her a pair of scissors, shit you not less than a week later my friend's malaysian dad did the same thing with the fly swatter! Like...if my mom did that when I was little I would have gotten the shit beat outta me 'cause I would have said "Momma it's right there!" I mean I was the youngest of five so I got whooped a bunch when I was little but that's freaking dumb.
WOW, I was spanked and have none of the above issues. I think life in itself causes anger, rage, trust and conflict. I just stay in prayer and pray for peace. I will not allow the way I was disciplined ruin my life. I have always had the mind set that now I have the choice to live my life the way I see fit. I also place The Most High first though. Let your past go, and move forward.
BOOSTED Boosted WRONG. You think white kids in emasculate houses aren’t gettjng their entire asses beat? If so you are delusional. I also know quite a few Asian cultures that whoop their kids asses I to submission so don’t say it’s only black homes.
Whew...this stressed me out lolllll. But the way they are hitting on black culture on this show in every way possible is incredible. Robin Thede is a genius
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆 That is some serious PTSD! May I suggest some counselling. Talking might help! 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆 You're comment is amazing!
This is literally how slave owners treated their slaves on a day to day. Making demands, and hoping you’d fail at completing them or talking back as an excuse to beat you or worse. Black people passed it on for generations and we’re just NOW seeing the correlation, and understanding the lasting effects it’s had on us. Whew child 🥴
Growing up in a home with so much tension is exhausting. I genuinely found this hard to watch, it brought me back to that place. Started crying once it ended. If this was you go to therapy before you have kids of your own.
It took me several years of therapy to stop defending my mother and realizing that the way she treated me was wrong. It took me going to college to realize that. I’m in therapy, and will never use corporal punishment on my children. I was lucky enough to have a very involved and compassionate father who primarily raised my sister and me, so I hope that I’ll follow his parenting model.
My mother had a long list of the different forms of rudeness. Crying for "nothing", looking her in the eye when shes talking, not looking her in the eye when shes talking, walking away, breathing wrong and the list goes on. You get punished so much for just being yourself that your shadow somehow becomes larger than your ego
Looking at the comments and apparently, this sketch has unzipped the entire black community’s childhood trauma. Can we finally admit that shit is not okay?
Maybe not for you but for some of us if things had been different most of us would not have made it into our adult life to become who we are today... Now for some they use that shit as an excuse to be bums, angry, and just out right rude and disrespectful because of it but I think you become better because and inspite of
“Let’s put 15 seconds on the clock.” This sketch is genius! Robin - you and your girls are wonderful! This show is amazing and I look forward to it every week! Congrats on the upcoming second season...you’re doing great things! And the show’s wig game is on point!
The unfortunate reality of the black childhood. Yes presented in a light-hearted relatable way, but damn. This is literally slave culture, physical and mental abuse. The fact that most black people can relate to this type of abuse show the trauma experienced by our entire race. 😢 I see these comments talking about how this gave them "chills", this being a "light-hearted horror film", THIS IS LITERALLY PTSD. We need therapy as a people.
I actually think in many African cultures it’s worse. The amount of beatings you get for nothing is ridiculous. It didn’t help that school did it either. The cycle never ends for many people because that’s how they are raised. I am glad my mom’s generation stopped. My aunts have never hit their children because of that. One can discipline without violence.
@Creole Chicken Creole Chicken Maybe if you read the comment section, you would've seen the many comments from non-American people of African decent, stating how they can relate to this skit, which is probably why the op made this statement. And besides, the OP's name should've given you a hint that she's probably not African American. Context clues. 👍
Bruh I used to hate when grown folks had my lil ass trying to find their shit. And I never could and they always got pissed because I didn't "look hard enough".
I’ve done that “turn down the volume first” move before!! It works, but you gotta do it gradually over a couple of minutes and turn on the captions!!! Expert. P. S. That was my hairstyle back in the day!!
yea even if you stay a pay rent they still try and pull some authoritative shit on you. its because most of them are virtually powerless everywhere else in the world, its a deep rooted psychological problem. they are also the people who belittle retail/food workers. its the only time they get to feel on TOP.
My mom sent this to me. She thinks it’s funny. I sent laughing emojis. All I can think about is how many days mornings and nights in a row I got whoopins to the point I can’t even remember elementary and most of middle school. Hahaha hilarious 🙂
Especially, when she said Rayniece ain't paid na'an one bill around here." How many times growing up, did I hear, "Do you have a job?" Do you pay any bills around here?" lol!
You'd think somewhere, there'd be some kid who made themselves some money (probably doing dirt, but who knows) who pulled some Lex Luthor shit and said "Alright, gimme a bill then." And then he pays it and then his Dad was scared from that point on, not knowing what else his kid could do now that he was playing on the grown level.
Sadly, even though it's just a skit, irl, the very best she can hope for is her mom to forget, but most likely, she only been given time to mentally prepare for it later
Snake Puncher This is unfortunately true! Those who know about that life will know that beating is gonna have a hint of pent up rage (aka extra smoke) for the ‘inconvenience’ of having to beat you later rather than sooner.
The side ponytail was my go to when I was finally allowed to comb my own hair. I was so proud of it hitting my shoulder. Then my damn mama cut it up to the bottom of my earlobe talking bout split ends. I was so mad at that heffa lol
Even a slight shift in the eyes or turn of the face could mean an ass whopping. 😂😂😂. I actually used to say this a lot growing up, why couldn't I have been born into a white family. Butttt...now I know better lmao!! We all get whoopings😅
Thank you! I totally get why comedy like this exists and I think it's funny and all-- but some folks in the comments are really trying to make it seem like getting beat up by the adults in your life is/should be a normal and good thing.
@@valeriancmw4975 They beat the hell out of us and most of my friends still ended up becoming teenage moms, ex cons and high school drop outs. My cousin was beaten and with held Christmas because she was "dumb". My aunt, her mother never thought to get her tested for dyslexia, which I'm sure she has.
I'm laughing on one hand because it's totally relatable. Everyone has tried to change the channel while a parent was snoozing ever so steathily. And that biscuit tin of needle and thread is so real. But this has a low-key "Precious" vibe which really highlights the abusiveness that prevails masked as "discipline".
It just so sad that this is acceptable for parents to behave that way within the black community. Looking for any reason to hit a child. I mean ANY reason
Yeah I’m a black woman and honestly what this is black women not being able to just be nice. I know everyone would call it unfeminine but in simple terms it’s mean girl/bully behavior and it doesn’t look good on what’s suppose to be some of the most beautiful women in the world. That’s why black women get this kind of treatment bc it’s just so freaking off and no one wants to put up w it
Honestly, the black community is not ready to have this conversation. I see so many people totally missing the point when it comes to educating their children vs. physically abusing them.
She is hella successful. She owns her own production company. Won essence awards. Has already produced successful movies and is well on her way to becoming a billionaire. She has made it already.
@@vh5640 Why are you being rude? Where in the main comment did you see disrespect or sarcasm. All they said was I hope she gets more success. There's always room for more success, but I don't think the poster was saying she was unsuccessful. Merely hoping she achieves more than she already has. Stop being a grouch.
@@queenbean6922 I will absolutely not speak on behalf of all Black people, Black mothers, and Black kids. Everyone has their own experiences. If you want perspective, please just read the comments and refrain from asking questions like this. Thanks!
@@queenbean6922 Black people are not a monolith. Some people have similar experiences, some don't. Asking "is this really what black mothers are like" is asking me to speak on behalf of everyone's experience, which I absolutely will not do. It further lumps all Black mothers into one way of being which is wrong and unfair.
As much as I love my mom to the core I get really pissed when I’m defending myself knowing I’m right and she says it’s “talking back” like that’s why half the time I’m shy around people and don’t ever defend myself really at all. And then when I don’t answer I’m wasting her time, cause I dun gave up at this age😂😂
Good for you for still loving your mom after all that. I'm the same way thanks to mine and I go to therapy because of my social anxiety and avoidant personality disorder. I don't talk to that lady anymore.
Keep talking or staying silent, learn to state your case without getting emotional. See her as a misbehaving child you have to be patient but firm with
At the end of the day hurt people hurt people. While I like many others experienced this and learned how to walk a tightrope in my mother’s house, it’s painful still at 63 years old to “remember” how marginalized and devalued I felt. I didn’t have the words to describe or voice my feelings then but now I have the strength, knowledge and humor to laugh and know that I’m not broken.
It's crazy because even now at 46 I don't think my mom liked me very much. What all of the "abuse" did was caused me to be a more gentle mother. I never wanted my kids to feel about me the way I once felt for my mother...
RozSpeaks Amen. My mother had me at 17 and would beat us unnecessarily for simple things instead of correcting us. In the future I’m choosing not to beat my children just because I feel like taking my frustration out on them instead of taking things as teaching moments.
@@Charrisnemtblueprint I also became a gentle mother after experiencing extreme abuse and my kids took full advantage of it. Today at 21 & 22 I regret not being harder on them because they are both toxic to my well being and don't respect me at all for being the push over parent
@@HTownstylist253 thats sad! Baby, don't let that be your life now! Live your life to its best and ask God to see you through. Seek what ever help you need but, don't carry that baggage of pass hurt to your future I am praying for you I have a daughter close to your age, and I always tell her she have the key to her happiness in life and baby, so do you!! STAY STRONG QUEEN....
Having your spirit consistantly beaten out of you as a child is a Tradition in the Black American household. Abuse is treated as a normal part of childhood. Victims became parents and the cycle repeats itself. When a person is made to feel that Everything they say,think,and do is not only a mistake but a Punishable offense... it's no wonder we raise security guards Instead of surgeons.. bus drivers Instead of business CEOs.. government workers Instead of governors. Black people learn from birth to keep their head down, do what is required, and Not draw attention to themselves. And anyone audacious enough to do different we hate them for their bravery and try to Destroy them before they've barely begun. We learned from our Momma. 💔
constantly telling a group of people that they are powerless is as insidious as overt racism. I understand what you're saying to an extent, I just disagree that pounding that sentiment into a community's conscious is effective for change. It's effective if your desired outcome is to discourage success.
@@daphneepaul3737 Wooah, you got this from one video? And no other resource. Black parents would whoop their kids when they did something they knew they wern't suppose to do. With usually a belt or hand. Lmao where you get a branch from. The danger of a single story was said best by Ngozi.
Ikr? How can errybody have the same or similar black homelife experiences in these comments. Aaaammmazing? Getting cussed out for having the door open while the A/C is on, Wearing shoes/Tracking shoeprints across the floor, being yelled at for not being excited but having to fix ur face first after coming waayy out yo room to get a remote or change the channel...cause u ain't paying nam bill in this house.. is this stuff inherent to black parent
Is this a universal black thing? I’m from Lagos, Nigeria and my mum has the blue tin filled with needles and thread!! Another tin has tons of coins from her travels. 😓😓 It hasn’t been cookies since 1994!
BlackfaceMandela good for you! I did all my studies on my own (never even had homework help from my parents)and I’m now studying to be a medical doctor. The silver lining is there’s a different level of pride and appreciation when you’ve truly done it on your own.
I get saddened more when we want to talk about this and not reparations and the economic abuse that happens in America or the abuse that has been inflicted upon our families for generations and still happening today so if we want to talk abuse let’s talk about the psychological abuse and economic deprivation of white supremacy system upon Black folks in America 🇺🇸
Ok the cookie tin was a life saver I can store all type of shit in there and don't act like other races don't use an object for storage that was not it first intentional use
Melanie Molifie my mother was very abusive, ironically we didn’t fear her, I called her out on it after I had a child of my own and couldn’t bear to look that little person in the face and hurt her. My mother apologized but she’d never become my friend.
@@deemack688 I went to spank my son yesterday. I don't do this. He was so terrified, and I remembered my aunt telling my dad that we were terrified, and him telling her we weren't. I thought "this is not what I want for my family." My bf came in cause if the screaming. He and I talked and agreed to tackle the real problem. We talked to our boy and he was very gracious and understood he couldn't behave so disrespectfully. I was honestly trying to do the right thing, but it felt so wrong. I don't want him to feel that fear. Feel the fear of getting hit by a car or burned on the stove, not your mother. No.

Maybe that’s why folks disliked it cause man... I was laughing but I was also like 😰... this was a bit too accurate.
We all did the "turn the volume down" move, right? Tell me I wasn't alone.
As soon as she got the remote, I said turn the volume down.
I still do that 😭😭
Lol I use to turn it down then flip away
😂😂😂yep.....so now you know why they said. You can't do anything I haven't done. Thus I could never get away with anything.
I definitely did that move growing up 😂😂😂
The phrase "fix your face" is engraved in my brain
With our Jamaican mother it was "stop pushing up your mouth"
In Trini is 'fix yuh face' and I use to be blinking with my angelic self and they tell you 'doh roll up yuh eye at me'
In California it was fix yo damn face. The memories 😆
I'm 27 with a 5 year old and I use this line, at least, once a week. I have become my mother.

yup, the most feared words from my childhood.
Black moms : calls their kid to get something within the room or within their reach. Why is that so true
I thought this only happened to 1st gen Americans. I remember my ex girlfriend's Nigerian momma called her into the room for her to hand her a pair of scissors, shit you not less than a week later my friend's malaysian dad did the same thing with the fly swatter! Like...if my mom did that when I was little I would have gotten the shit beat outta me 'cause I would have said "Momma it's right there!" I mean I was the youngest of five so I got whooped a bunch when I was little but that's freaking dumb.
Power
Cause parents like to be needy. It's kinda cute in a way. A payback :)
My mom would call me from my bedroom to get her a glass of water - while she was already in the kitchen !!! ????
Guilty. I've been too tired to move from chasing kids and cooking food and cleaning house - but I'm nice about it. I say please. 🤷♀️
When we was looking for those batteries I was like “check the freezer”

All joking aside this helps to explain why so many of us have PTSD, anger, rage, trust & poor conflict resolution issues.
I don't even though I can relate to the skit. I choose to not repeat that part of my life. Also, those parents became wonderful grandparents.
JAZZLlFE because of your mother? That’s so sad
Queen Bean
My mom is 98% of the reason that I had trust issues and didn't have many female friends until I went to college.

PREACH
Name your source, just one to prove what you just stated.
OK so why it's in every African culture then?
Growing up in a home with so much tension is exhausting. I genuinely found this hard to watch, it brought me back to that place. Started crying once it ended. If this was you go to therapy before you have kids of your own.
yeah the mom in this was playing mind games
Agreed
tnx god found someone here who thinks that this is not okey...
It took me several years of therapy to stop defending my mother and realizing that the way she treated me was wrong. It took me going to college to realize that. I’m in therapy, and will never use corporal punishment on my children. I was lucky enough to have a very involved and compassionate father who primarily raised my sister and me, so I hope that I’ll follow his parenting model.
Clearly, the skit is grossly exaggerated. It’s a skit, FFS. Get over yourselves.
This is the realness of a writing room with color.. Well done 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Beautifully said!
I agree and I'm white, sorry😞
Exactly 👏

I love this. The satire they use to make us rethink our childhood. Some moms are petty, some abusive
Very much so.
Or, both.
Or just tired
Or bipolar !
@@boomagoo321 I think my mom is but then again it's a "black mom" thing to trip about nothing
My mother had a long list of the different forms of rudeness. Crying for "nothing", looking her in the eye when shes talking, not looking her in the eye when shes talking, walking away, breathing wrong and the list goes on. You get punished so much for just being yourself that your shadow somehow becomes larger than your ego
Looking at the comments and apparently, this sketch has unzipped the entire black community’s childhood trauma.
Can we finally admit that shit is not okay?
We been admitted that
it is NOT okay. we gotta do better. we have to!
Maybe not for you but for some of us if things had been different most of us would not have made it into our adult life to become who we are today... Now for some they use that shit as an excuse to be bums, angry, and just out right rude and disrespectful because of it but I think you become better because and inspite of

“Let’s put 15 seconds on the clock.” This sketch is genius! Robin - you and your girls are wonderful! This show is amazing and I look forward to it every week! Congrats on the upcoming second season...you’re doing great things!
And the show’s wig game is on point!
LISTEN THE WIGS ARE ONE PIZZOZINT
THIS SHOW IS A W!
L Lugo I know right! I want to know where they get their wigs!
God, the amount of times I heard "fix your face" as a kid is ridiculous. This brought back so many memories🤣
Imagine “Get the Belt” with a Caribbean mom and her kid has only 3 minutes to figure what “ting” she wants you to bring her.😂
Facts !!!
Oh Lord...flashbacks 🤦🏾♀️
😭😭😭😭
Tell it!!
And asking what "ting" is disresctful too.But if you don't find it in time you get a whooping.
Everybody had that exact biscuit tin with no biscuits in it.
Biscuits...that ain't no biscuits thats cookies...are you from uk?? Us Americans don't talk like that
stfu they called biscuits
iTSAME it’s cookies bitch
Technically no one is wrong but your all being assholes to each other. It’s the same thing, different name 🙄
We had so many of them and I’ve never tasted what was supposed to be in there!
This show is brilliant. The actors and writers deserve hella praise!! And this sketch...too damn funny and super accurate.😅😅😅
I find myself yelling to Reniece to turn down the volume before she changes the channel. I was rooting for you girl!
Same! I thought I came up with that myself but I guess that move was universal 😂😂😂
The commentators wigs are sending me 😭
Yooo the turning down the volume before turning the channel, I thought that I was the only one that did that 💀💀💀😂😂😂
Me too lol.
Still my move to this day.
The unfortunate reality of the black childhood. Yes presented in a light-hearted relatable way, but damn. This is literally slave culture, physical and mental abuse. The fact that most black people can relate to this type of abuse show the trauma experienced by our entire race. 😢 I see these comments talking about how this gave them "chills", this being a "light-hearted horror film", THIS IS LITERALLY PTSD. We need therapy as a people.
I actually think in many African cultures it’s worse. The amount of beatings you get for nothing is ridiculous. It didn’t help that school did it either. The cycle never ends for many people because that’s how they are raised. I am glad my mom’s generation stopped. My aunts have never hit their children because of that. One can discipline without violence.
@Creole Chicken I'm black British of Caribbean descent... it was my experience.
@@jamalhartley5863 Congratulations! You've just normalized dysfunction.
@Creole Chicken Creole Chicken Maybe if you read the comment section, you would've seen the many comments from non-American people of African decent, stating how they can relate to this skit, which is probably why the op made this statement.
And besides, the OP's name should've given you a hint that she's probably not African American. Context clues. 👍
Jamal Hartley I don’t think whooping your child then whooping them more for crying because the whooping hurt them is building character
"I would never track outside in your house" lol 😂
Bruh I used to hate when grown folks had my lil ass trying to find their shit. And I never could and they always got pissed because I didn't "look hard enough".
I’ve done that “turn down the volume first” move before!!
It works, but you gotta do it gradually over a couple of minutes and turn on the captions!!!
Expert.
P. S. That was my hairstyle back in the day!!
Same ☺️
Me too😁😂
Dont forget to turn them off before you leave so they cant tell if you DID watch them
Thats why I love captions
Closed captioning is a smart ghetto youngun's best friend
Gurl caption never bothered me...and if granny woke up I was dead asleep😂😂😂
She was wrong for not letting her friend know the no shoe rule. I guess they're just coworkers.
Not friends lol
😂😂😂
I gues shes Not her Work Friend!!!
😂😂
she was a frenemy
no wonder some people leave the house as soon as they're 18🤣🤣🤣
yea even if you stay a pay rent they still try and pull some authoritative shit on you. its because most of them are virtually powerless everywhere else in the world, its a deep rooted psychological problem. they are also the people who belittle retail/food workers. its the only time they get to feel on TOP.
@@sirashley2355 people like that still dont know who they are and what they do thats why they do shit like that, little kid mindset💯💯💯
I was one of them..

My mom sent this to me. She thinks it’s funny. I sent laughing emojis. All I can think about is how many days mornings and nights in a row I got whoopins to the point I can’t even remember elementary and most of middle school. Hahaha hilarious 🙂
I am so sorry she did that, you did not deserve it, you deserved love Biggest hugs if you want them 💗
This was triggering. Scheduling a therapy session right now.
💙💙💙
🤣😅😅😅 girl my chest I grew up in a West Indian household I was chewing my teeth 😂
Especially, when she said Rayniece ain't paid na'an one bill around here." How many times growing up, did I hear, "Do you have a job?" Do you pay any bills around here?" lol!
😂😂😂🤣
" she hasn't payed nan one bill around here "
Bruh I literally thought my dad was the only person who said this 😭😭
You'd think somewhere, there'd be some kid who made themselves some money (probably doing dirt, but who knows) who pulled some Lex Luthor shit and said "Alright, gimme a bill then." And then he pays it and then his Dad was scared from that point on, not knowing what else his kid could do now that he was playing on the grown level.
🤣🤣
@@Theomite I have no idea what you just said but yeah sure lol
😂😂😂
Nope my m and now me lnao
The host saved Raniece from an undeserved spanking. Amazing
Cause that wouldn't be funny. It would tip the scale all the way to traumatic.
Sadly, even though it's just a skit, irl, the very best she can hope for is her mom to forget, but most likely, she only been given time to mentally prepare for it later
Snake Puncher This is unfortunately true! Those who know about that life will know that beating is gonna have a hint of pent up rage (aka extra smoke) for the ‘inconvenience’ of having to beat you later rather than sooner.
Delayed. She deLAYED it.
Dominique Marita that life was tough 😩😩 I can only laugh from crying now 😩😂😂
Making noises while her Mother is sleep, she's just showboating 😅
Okay the side ponytail is a weakness.
Looking at it I could feel the endless brushing and the gel needed to smooth it.
The side ponytail was my go to when I was finally allowed to comb my own hair. I was so proud of it hitting my shoulder. Then my damn mama cut it up to the bottom of my earlobe talking bout split ends. I was so mad at that heffa lol
After the first 5 seconds I watched the rest of this as a ghost because I’m dead.
lolol
Lmfao well done
Stop that crying before I give you something to cry for.
Or, "Fix your face"
Oh my. I live in Finland, and heard this so much as a kid! Smiling and stopping to cry on command, after a whupping...so difficult.
“Cry about”
Or "Stop crying" *whilst still hitting you. "That don't hurt!"
Exactly the reason why I’m laughing so hard at this
"THESE ITEMS ARE NEVER ANYWHERE THAT MAKES A LICK OF SENSE"
🤣 the fear of trying to find something so mom doesn't have to do it herself.
"Reniece ain't paid naan one bill around here" 😂
She should have gone to her room for the easy win...LOL
It’s really messed up how parents thought anything would warrant a physical beating
Saiquan Ryan yes
Even a slight shift in the eyes or turn of the face could mean an ass whopping. 😂😂😂. I actually used to say this a lot growing up, why couldn't I have been born into a white family. Butttt...now I know better lmao!! We all get whoopings😅
Thank you! I totally get why comedy like this exists and I think it's funny and all-- but some folks in the comments are really trying to make it seem like getting beat up by the adults in your life is/should be a normal and good thing.
@@valeriancmw4975 They beat the hell out of us and most of my friends still ended up becoming teenage moms, ex cons and high school drop outs. My cousin was beaten and with held Christmas because she was "dumb". My aunt, her mother never thought to get her tested for dyslexia, which I'm sure she has.
ShaRonda I said I wished I was adopted my mum heard me and said do you think it’s like Tracy beaker and then continued to sing the theme to me 🤦🏾♀️
"You got shoes on in my house?" any answer doesn't matter...it's too late LOL
These wiggggs on Robin and Quinta😭🤣
Sharon B I was wondering what was going on. And do their names mean something lol
Right 😂😂😂
Salt n Pepa all day with the hair 😂😊
I'm laughing on one hand because it's totally relatable. Everyone has tried to change the channel while a parent was snoozing ever so steathily. And that biscuit tin of needle and thread is so real. But this has a low-key "Precious" vibe which really highlights the abusiveness that prevails masked as "discipline".
Yes, the whole of the sketch is genius and absolutely hilarious --- but for some of us, it has a nasty underbelly. 😄😂🤣😐😯😟😢😭😐😕😯😠🤔.
@JamericanDC1 the realness was that the mother was looking for an excuse to pass her nerves on her child when she clearly hasnt done anything wrong
It just so sad that this is acceptable for parents to behave that way within the black community. Looking for any reason to hit a child. I mean ANY reason
Correct. It's kinda funny now, but while it was happening, it was terrifying.
@@autumnsimmons3046 not only the black community but the arab too...it s considerate a bad education if u dnt hit them specially girls within puberty
Wow, as a counselor and a black women who was once a black girl, I have witnessed this.
My black mother never laid hands on me but I've seen all of this. We need to address the trauma
We need to change the cycle
Yeah I’m a black woman and honestly what this is black women not being able to just be nice. I know everyone would call it unfeminine but in simple terms it’s mean girl/bully behavior and it doesn’t look good on what’s suppose to be some of the most beautiful women in the world. That’s why black women get this kind of treatment bc it’s just so freaking off and no one wants to put up w it
Honestly, the black community is not ready to have this conversation. I see so many people totally missing the point when it comes to educating their children vs. physically abusing them.

acarmyofone why is that a bad question to ask
@@queenbean6922 Black people are not a monolith. Some people have similar experiences, some don't. Asking "is this really what black mothers are like" is asking me to speak on behalf of everyone's experience, which I absolutely will not do. It further lumps all Black mothers into one way of being which is wrong and unfair.
@@queenbean6922 You literally can't just generalise a whole race? Obviously?? 😐
As much as I love my mom to the core I get really pissed when I’m defending myself knowing I’m right and she says it’s “talking back” like that’s why half the time I’m shy around people and don’t ever defend myself really at all. And then when I don’t answer I’m wasting her time, cause I dun gave up at this age😂😂
Good for you for still loving your mom after all that. I'm the same way thanks to mine and I go to therapy because of my social anxiety and avoidant personality disorder. I don't talk to that lady anymore.
Saaaame struggle with my mom😂😂😂😭😭😭
Keep talking or staying silent, learn to state your case without getting emotional. See her as a misbehaving child you have to be patient but firm with
At the end of the day hurt people hurt people. While I like many others experienced this and learned how to walk a tightrope in my mother’s house, it’s painful still at 63 years old to “remember” how marginalized and devalued I felt. I didn’t have the words to describe or voice my feelings then but now I have the strength, knowledge and humor to laugh and know that I’m not broken.
It's crazy because even now at 46 I don't think my mom liked me very much. What all of the "abuse" did was caused me to be a more gentle mother. I never wanted my kids to feel about me the way I once felt for my mother...
RozSpeaks Amen. My mother had me at 17 and would beat us unnecessarily for simple things instead of correcting us. In the future I’m choosing not to beat my children just because I feel like taking my frustration out on them instead of taking things as teaching moments.
Well you're lucky because I'm still broken and without at voice at 41 years old even after cutting my mama off 8 years ago. She's still in my head smh
@@Charrisnemtblueprint I also became a gentle mother after experiencing extreme abuse and my kids took full advantage of it. Today at 21 & 22 I regret not being harder on them because they are both toxic to my well being and don't respect me at all for being the push over parent

Wow DeeJai I totally missed that!
Having your spirit consistantly beaten out of you as a child is a Tradition in the Black American household. Abuse is treated as a normal part of childhood. Victims became parents and the cycle repeats itself. When a person is made to feel that Everything they say,think,and do is not only a mistake but a Punishable offense... it's no wonder we raise security guards Instead of surgeons.. bus drivers Instead of business CEOs.. government workers Instead of governors. Black people learn from birth to keep their head down, do what is required, and Not draw attention to themselves. And anyone audacious enough to do different we hate them for their bravery and try to Destroy them before they've barely begun. We learned from our Momma. 💔

constantly telling a group of people that they are powerless is as insidious as overt racism. I understand what you're saying to an extent, I just disagree that pounding that sentiment into a community's conscious is effective for change. It's effective if your desired outcome is to discourage success.
@@daphneepaul3737 Wooah, you got this from one video? And no other resource. Black parents would whoop their kids when they did something they knew they wern't suppose to do. With usually a belt or hand. Lmao where you get a branch from. The danger of a single story was said best by Ngozi.
This is one of the best sketches I have seen in my entire life. This should be nominated for everything!

We talked to our boy and he was very gracious and understood he couldn't behave so disrespectfully.
