    I’m a PK and I relate to Vicky and Lex with the whole being introverted and being in the back and cam hit it on the nail with the they chastise us more than they do their own kids MY GOD from Zion lol thank you soooo much for this I feel so safe here watching these it’s like no one understands the PK life it’s hard out here y’all 🤣

    I didn’t know I was a people pleaser until my husband called me out on it. As a PK I never was given the chance to say no. As a 26 year old wife and mother, I’m just now stepping into and owning my “No”.

    I feel like I was a people pleaser a lot growing up mainly. Towards adults because feeling pressured that you have to always do what you are told & don’t talk about. It took me awhile to learn how to say “No” in adulthood. I’ll proud say no now🥴

    The conversation about father’s had me breaking down in TEARS! I never thought of the relationship I have with my earthly father as being the first representation of a relationship with Christ. It’s so true and makes so much sense. I went to see Vicky’s dad preach 1 time and it’s stuck with me ever since. Thank you for what you all are doing here. ❤️❤️

    Thank you so much for this. I can resonate with all of this. My dad is a preacher and all my uncles and cousins. It helped me understand why I am they way I am. I’m like Vicky and Lex I like to hide because I’m tired of hearing their opinions and the whole church talking about you. I want to live without caring what everyone things. I’m 33 and I still struggle with the affects of growing up a PK. Love this!!

    This was a great Conversation. I definitely was living my whole life pleasing everyone that was in my life and making them happy instead doing what was pleasing to God. But I’m starting the enjoy the pleasure of being free of living to please people because God had to pull people out of my life and open my eyes to see those around me wasn’t for me. I’m about to be 30 this month this resonate a lot. Thanks Guys for this

  • @superhooper425
    @superhooper425 2 роки тому +5

    This is good. I am somewhat a child of someone who ministered. I honestly never really even admitted that cuz I didn’t consider it relevant to my life. But I will say being in ministry and trying to be everything everyone else wants you to be is exhausting and has caused me so much stress that physically my body has perpetually been tormented 😫. I am recovering from being a people pleaser and also an introvert who has made myself be extroverted to make other people feel comfortable. There is nothing like accepting yourself the way you are and not being pressed if others do. And yes you can still love God and people! 😊

    This was so good and so needed! I was born a PK as well and the ideology of being perfect, performing well constantly and the expectation to succeed differently than folks own kids has always been a struggle for me. It wasn't until just a few years ago when I started to find the words to better communicate to help my mom understand these struggles. Now that my dad has passed, he was a pastor, I've wanted to go through all of these questions and just awakening that I've come to with him. Vicky the comment you made about PK's living in silence because its such a lonely road was spot on! So all of that plus living in America as a black woman, in corporate America...talk about a headache! lol But God!

    Omg!!!!! I've been waiting for something like this we go through so much as a PK!!! listen, I was set down from directing my Youth Choir cause I had on red fingernail polish. I was that one that felt neglected cause they were always traveling, ministering to others, on top of that we had a 24 hr prayer line connected to our home phone line so it was always about ministry and here I am my life is in shambles like you don't see me?! cause of the expectations of how others view me Oh, I went through it!!! And dealing with the rejection came along with other things that happened so I'm grateful for this and I too was one of the ones who like dummy down cause you didn't want others to feel some kinda way of being smart and I was the youngest of my siblings that didn't help either... Too much! and still suffering and I'm 53yrs old

  • @tikaxbri
    @tikaxbri 2 роки тому

    This resonated SO WELL! So many good points. I remember during my childhood, I was at a workshop and a lady who happened to be a preacher shared that while she was called into the ministry, she is extremely mindful in not putting that responsibility on her child and I remember feeling like wow...why can't everyone think this way. i feel like our generation of PKs had a hard time because our parents/grandparents were very much still into the "traditional ways" which ultimately left me to seek a church far from that.

What advice would you give yourself in raising children “PKs” and what advice would you give your children on handling this label. -from one PK to you all.

    I’m a PK kid (😑 kinda). My dad is a pastor but my dad and myself have no relationship at all never took care of me a day in my life. Super close to my other relatives on his side though. Watched his sermon one time and was utterly annoyed because I knew he was a literal hypocrite. People would always ask me about him and his church “did you hear you daddy preach?” “How you feel about your daddy” “ Amazing man of God, you gone take his mantle?” Me asking what mantle? False prophet? Those questions were always cringe for me and having people think certain things about me and judge me because I wasn’t interested in my fathers teaching made me disappear from everyone and everything. Being a PK hits different when you are disassociated from the “P”, a whole other conversation to be talked about.

    I’m not a PK. But as a Christian and growing up in a more restrictive denomination + Nigerian church where you are almost related to everyone so everyone THINKS they are your parent or have the right to constantly interject unwanted info/ opinions is very discouraging and annoying. And like Vicky said for a period of time I didn’t want no parts of church and still til this day kind of struggle with it. But I enjoy watching talks like this cause Church hurt is real.
