My van has been broken down for about a month and a half now! I ended up stranded on the side of the road for a few hours before a tow truck came to pick us up. However, we made the most of it! We have been stationary for a few months now and we've picked up some exciting hobbies such as karate, horseback riding and guitar! We should be back on the road pretty soon. Thank you so much for watching and asking such amazing questions!
It puzzles me why people worry about socialization, when many of them are not so great people
Truth
So true
Exactly
I think it’s great that you’re homeschooling your little one. The school system is set up to indoctrinate children not actually teach them valuable skills and knowledge.
This is strictly a personal opinion, which may be based on individual beliefs or experiences, rather than universally accepted facts. The view that the school system is more about indoctrination than teaching valuable skills and knowledge is a subjective interpretation. In reality, the effectiveness and goals of education systems can vary widely across different regions and institutions.
Many argue that formal schooling provides essential skills like literacy, numeracy, critical thinking, and social interaction. Others might point out flaws in the system, such as perceived biases in curriculum or teaching methods. Homeschooling is an alternative educational approach that allows for more personalized education but also requires significant commitment and resources from parents or guardians.
Both homeschooling and traditional schooling have their pros and cons, and what works best can depend greatly on the individual child and their specific needs and circumstances. Critical thinking, is a valuable skill.
Aint that the truth. My teachers always bully me, when I take steps to stand up for myself, i get sent to the principal's office, and the principal always takes the teacher's side!
@@Taviemeit’s a verifiable fact.
@@BookMama72 if you take your kids to church you are indoctrinating them.. look it up. Indoctrination is the process of teaching someone to accept a set of beliefs or ideas uncritically, often without encouraging independent thought or questioning. It usually involves imparting specific viewpoints, often in a way that discourages alternative perspectives or critical evaluation. Teachers literally do the opposite.
Im so so confident that Kareem will continue to be a good human as he grows up… because you’re doing a great job with him 💛✨
Thank you so much ❤ that means a lot to me
Don't listen to the haters! Your little boy is amazing, good job Mamma!!❤❤
This comment is everything
Thank you so much ❤
@@thistravelmomhello Mizz This Travel mom. Are you able to post more than what you are? Have you pitched a newer van and building it out as mentioned in prior video?
I’m definitely in need of some vanlife friends 😩
Girl we literally are the same lol. I’m thinking of getting an apartment in NY for 6 months and then travel after that. It’s like after you do vanlife you get the sense “I can really do whatever I want” so now we have all of these open-minded ideas rather than just either renting an apartment or buying a home.
Love this for you. Been on the road for 3 years with the boys
YES YES YES it’s definitely allowed me to feel as though we can do whatever we want as long as our kiddos are happy and healthy ❤️
A subscriber of mine sent me your channel and i love it! I have a soon to be 2yo daughter and vanlife with her is proving to be much more rewarding than i thought. Who needs tv? We have nature! Much love ✌🏾
It is nice to see a child enjoy nature,well mannered,likes to try new things, momma cooking no fast food,no tablets no phones,activities, and hope you a have a form of safety on you❤
I love your mothering to your son Kareem, allowing him to experience life from a different perspective and exposing him to the beauty of living life outdoors AND traveling the world! You continue to do the good things you’re doing, live your life, be safe, and stay focused on the two of you. I’m an rv’er and if you guys are ever in Las Vegas, let me know and I’ll be happy to check anything out on your van to make sure you guys are safe as can be out on the road. 🙏🏽❤️🤗✌🏽
Omg thank you ❤ this post really made me smile 😊
@@thistravelmom sorry for the late reply…I was in Costa Rica for a few weeks. Awww…you’re so very welcome and smiling is a good thing. Yall stay safe out there. I’m preparing to do an Rv renovation on my rig before hitting the road in June.
Hi Jayla and Kareem! I've missed seeing you guys!
Children are L❤VE…him so sweet.
So happy that you are experiencing motherhood this way. ❤❤❤
AHHHH yes thank you ❤
I wish you and your son the best. Hopefully your home can be fixed up and that y'all can continue on your adventures. Your son is so cute and wonderful and you're doing such a great job. I recently subscribed and I'm excited for what's to come on your channel. ❤💖💝 be happy, be healthy, be safe and stay awesome
Thats sounds so much like the things i have always wanted to do living off grid i have been in Missouri forever i haven't traveled in years but i understand what you mean when you say all over the place with thoughts anyway stay safe and be blessed
I think you are wonderful and doing very well. You are correct, he is smart and developing above average. Travel is sooooo beneficial.
You look so pretty playing your guitar. Please don’t give up❤❤❤
Why does this look more peaceful than paying rent in an apartment?
Hey jayla and son be safe out their❤
Hello please do a video……PLEASE I ENJOY WATCHING YOUR son and you.
Love your video your baby boy so beautiful have great day hi I’m new see video my is Maria ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍👍👍✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
Have you thought about getting a truck camper... I love your videos and your son is so handsome..
i went from the shelters to camping in a tent to living on communes to living in cheap hotels (really rooming houses) in Alaska to living in my RV with a dog to owning my own land with two dogs in Maine. you look like you live in a roving commune yourself. community is always important. The communes I lived on are still there (Twin Oaks near Charlottesville VA and East Wind in Tecumseh, MO) but you might find it confining in terms of your own creativity. waking up each morning to the combined talents of the entire community was worth it. They were great places for growing children. These communes have existed since the Sixties.
Are you able to post more than once a month? I went all the way back to watch your Chanel and am in DORE NEED of more of your posts on the REGULAR. For me that looks like weekly or close to weekly. Is that something you are able to obtain in your life today. I know you were mentioning a new van and build. Is that in the works and why we haven’t seen you as often?
I think you are an amazing mom and your son just looks like he is a happy, well rounded and well traveled kid!!!💕💕💕
I am seriously wanting to do something similar as I want more than anything to do a cross country road trip around the US before my son starts kindergarten as then I will have to look into buying a house. Just have to find a good-sized van and get it fitted for the journey for both of us. ❤ Please stay safe. 🙏 And good luck with the van maintenance, failing drive axle is not fun.
This is a really great experience for him at this age the way you are living because at this age they are all about touch, smell, sight and their brains are absorbing everything! so this is great for him.
Two Woody’s and a Buzz light year👍🏽
I’m so sorry about your van breaking down I hope you get it fixed soon & ignore the negative comments your son is a wonderful boy who’s lucky to have a good mum
I can’t imagine having a childhood with so many experiences! He’s well off being prepared for the world, good job momma
You have such a carefree life. I absolutely love it and need to get out more with my kids too. ❤
The dog 🥹💗

Can't wait to see where y'all travel next. I dream.of taking my mom and little guy on epic adventures across the country. Awesome to see a young mom doing big things for herself and mid. Safe travels.
Aww what a precious child smh gentle, loving mama bear. May God protect and keep you both in your home on wheels.
It has been a few weeks since you posted. I hope everything is going okay with you both and safe travels

Thank you!! Having problems with my battery now so that’s a new issue but afterwards the adventure begins ❤
@@thistravelmom There will always be ups and downs, The downs really make us appreciate the good times. But when the adventure starts I’ll be watching, Maybe we can even meet up, Let the kids play!
I think you are doing a wonderful job raising your son and traveling. It’s my desire to live in a van but I am scared doing it alone as a single woman. Keep safe and enjoy life !

Happy Easter,❤❤.
Can you please do a hour long video
It's so nice to see your son enjoying nature.
I'm proud of you 😊
❤Karim is too cutie cute 😊😊

Let me just give you a little tip mama what state your van is registered in or your driver's license registered in determines the state you're going to have to follow the homeschool regulations for and every state is different. He will typically have to start anywhere between the ages of 5 and 6 to kindergarten. You want to make sure you're not breaking your state's law. I've been homeschooling for 5 years. And some States can be stricter than others. I just want to make sure you know that.
If all else fails, get a UPS box in GA to establish residency and register him as homeschooled on GA's website. They're one of the most lenient states. The only requirement is that you notify the State via their website that your child is homeschooling. They don't do any assessments or have any curriculum requirements.
I hope it's not con
Looking so French there…oui oui!❤
HAHAHAHA thank you! ❤
Check out a Waldorf school before public, I think you’d love it!
Uh oh , I saw where this went . She better think about it , really good . Bunny alert . Too late . What....,,,, it's been,,,? a year so far ?
You should have time stamps in the description. I want to know what happened to the father of your son?
Why your mother is also your sister??😢😢😢😢😅😅😅
Try minding your own damn business.
So your house broke down on the side of the road but aye, that’s van life. Sounds more like that’s bad parenting life. 😂smh
You’re such a fan 😂
@@FreeSpiritMom and you’re a habitual struggling victim. 😂
@@IdontHOEnoMOE You’re projecting because you hate your life 😩 certified soldier over here 🤣
@@FreeSpiritMom hate my life? I wouldnt say hate, more like life be living. I know you know about that….WOW, you’re a soldier yet you’re living in a car with your child…..hmm….apartment…hmm…..van…..hmm….chimney….hmm. Don’t mind my ignorance. I don’t be knowing what I’m talking about. I’m so free spirited. Lol
@@IdontHOEnoMOE Yes! You most definitely hate your life and yourself. That’s why you have her post notifications on so you can come and hate on her video every time she posts lol.
It's no different then if you had a bad leak in your home, or you needed a new roof, or a new water heater
So, don't give the Haters one minute of your precious time❤they're just misorible and unhappy. They hate to see YOU enjoying your life
Keep smiling, keep meeting good friendly people like yourself and your son is getting the BEST Love a mother can give, and he's learning, he's happy, he's well cared for
Happy and safe travels to You and your awesome baby boy❤❤
