Tamera's parents did a great job raising their children. They all turned out to be sweet, caring, humble down to earth....the list can go on... people.. 👍
SERIOUSLY! That entire family is just doing something right. I cant wait to see what happens with Tamera's kids and Tamar's son. I wonder what type of people they will be! And I wonder if any of the other three will spawn children, haha.
I am so happy that Tamera is the same person that I looked up to when I was younger. Tia too. It is refreshing to see that not all child stars fell of the wagon.
I like Tamera's mom even though I don't know her. It seems she did a great job raising her children. She definitely gave them good advice. I'm sure Tamera's father played a part in that also.
Tamar is giving us 90s makeup realness! But they're SO right. My parents always praised what I did right but I was NEVER made to believe that I was the best thing to ever walk this earth.
Jeannie iS SO right. I guarantee she is the hardest working person she knows. My cousin is engaged to an asian with a PhD. They're not genetically smarter. They're smarter because TIGER MOMS don't play around.
Irene C Right girl! That's what I mean. But people always just say they're smarter & geniuses. Uh yeah...Because they had a bed & school books in their room & that's it. I will be that way with my kids. I will push them way harder than my parents pushed me. That's what breeds success. Not slacking on them. My dad was so soft (So kind & sweet & still didn't tolerate things) But soft. He'd ground me & let me out that same night. God love him. But Asians just don't play. And that's why most doctors are Asian.
elina a How was a I hating?? I literally just asked a simple question that no one was "smart and classy" enough to answer. Grow up like for real. Asking a question is NOT reflective of hatred.... like seriously How old are you... SMH
I was never taught about anything but the real world LOL hell, at Christmas time, I didn't know who the hell this Santa Claud guy was my friends at school were talking about!! My mama was like "oh hell naw, all them hours I worked to buy these gifts, YOU GONNA KNOW WHO THEY'RE REALLY FROM!!" Lmaoooo
I agree with all of them wholeheartedly. I didn't hear anyone however mention the power of positivity and manifestation. My mom always told me I was the smartest kid in the class even when I didn't feel I was or I wasn't in reality. But she taught me to speak it into existence until I ended up being the smartest kid in the class. Of course I worked hard and she provided me with the necessary tools and resources to do so, but I can't imagine I would have been as successful if she didn't teach me to believe in myself despite what my reality presented me.
@@Rootofasphodel Yes. I’m Hinduism, the essence of yoga is to reach “oneness of God”. The word Yoga means “Union”. Their “god” is not a literal being, but is an impersonal spiritual substance that is one with nature and the cosmos.
All parents lie to their kids by saying that they're the smartest or the prettiest /most handsome kid in their class hell my parents told me the same sh#t then I found out that I was a slow learner & they'd been lying to me about it.
I remember telling my baby cousin to behave or else Santa isn't getting him any gifts & his mom got so mad. She said "uh uh no! Don't tell him about Santa! I work too hard! all he needs to worry about is his mama & daddy & the Lord!!!" lol
C Fas Not they aren't. They're just internet and social media trolls and clowns. Like I always say, I don't know anyone grown adult who acts this way over a person they don't know and never met a day in their life.
***** Not all of the people are criticising Tamar's looks. Some of them are complimenting them and some are just confused about her style. Don't forget that Tamar focuses a lot on her looks. Therefore, so do a lot of her fans
You know I find women so shallow at times. I don't care if she's into fashion, but this discussion was about our children. Yet all these fools can talk about is her looks? It's transcending pathetic really.
I agree with Tamera and Tamar on this. It is true that there will always be someone out there that is smarter, prettier, and more successful than you but you just have to do the best that you can be so that you can succeed in this life. My parents taught me that as well. And the reason why Asians are very successful in school and overachievers is because their parents are constantly pushing them to be great and aim high for everything and Asians are very hard workers and they are very disciplined when it comes to their work. That's not just an Asian thing, that's also a Caribbean and an African thing as well because Caribbean and African parents are always on their children to do better and they push them so hard to succeed in everything they do and they work very hard.
***** Stfu. What do you know? Don't be disrespectful. I'm proudly Nigerian and I'll have you know my family is not broke - not that it's any of your business
The "Tiger Mom" sentiment that Jeannie spoke on his very universal when it comes to foreigners that settle in America. African immigrants actually perform the best in College. Similarly, if an American of any race settles in another country, chances are they and or their children will perform well.
I just LOVE listening to Tamera especially when she speaks about how she was brought up as a child, as well as her other life experiences. she is very wise. her parents did a great job raising her, and her other siblings.
Asia also has the highest suicide rates. All that pushing needs to be balanced with true parenting, which involves love and encouragement as well. Lots of smart dead people won't do us any good.
+GeekBella No asia as the highest suicide rate due to labor. However, most of the engineer, scientist, mathematicians are from asia or have asian roots...they're doing a good job so far...
I agree because I grew up in an Asian household with a tiger mom & I love my mom but she pushes me too hard a lot this why we aren't very close. I think their needs to be a balance I'm glad she pushes me but I don't think it should be so hard. U should also try to take care of ur child's needs & ask the, what they want to do instead of push them to be so successful that they aren't happy
Loni, no need to get defensive. Jeannie made a very valid point. There's a reason why Asians are considered a model minority. Simply put, it's what they prioritize-family, education, culture, faith etc are all intertwined. Education is HUGE. It you're a first generation American, chances are your immigrant parents were the hardest working people you knew who not only navigated a whole new country/language/culture but did so while preserving their heritage and values.
But so do Africans. So I mean??? If she got defensive, then hey. It was only fair bc Jeannie made it seem like Asians are the only race where, if you're a first gen. American citizen, that you were given a lot of pressure to succeed.
VONiiE8 No she didn't. Jeannie is speaking from her personal experience growing up an Asian American. What she said is statistically true; Asian Americans tend to be more educated. The African American culture is very different from the African immigrant culture.
@imancampbell maybe you are right, but the tone and delivery of how she reacted to Jeannie's comment had some subtle defensive undertones. In any case, I commented mostly because I appreciated Jeannie's contribution to the conversation since I could relate. ✌️
She said things like "when I say Asian, I mean pan Asian" I doubt her experience as a Vietnamese bred Asian can relate to that of a Iraqi bred Asian lbr here. But, like I said, so do Africans. I know Africans who were under so much pressure to be a doctor or lawyer because they were first gen. in America. And I never mentioned African American, as in ~I'm black and I'm GENERATIONS in~, I said African as in, ~my parents have a thick ass accent that I can mimic and/or speak my respective African dialect~. I never thought or even gave the impression that I thought African and African American cultures were the same. I never even mentioned the term African American, where did that even come from? Now, let me clarify, I don't think that's how she meant to come off, but that's how she did and I can see why people were offended.
when my mom called someone prettier than me. I got so angry and said that she should find me the most beautiful girl on earth because I am her child. If she doesn't find me the most gorgeous, no one will 🤔. she replied: " I am not blind" 😂😂😂😂
Yes preach. Thank you. IDGI a serious topic and yet all people can do is criticize Tamar and her appearance. The hate is real..... and so is Tamar's coinT!
Tamar: "That's why you so coint up!" Tamera: YES...! (but then realizes what Tamar just said)....>.> okay? Bahahahaha. I don't think Ive ever seen Tamera give anyone the side eye.
I learned about work ethics and success at a very young age. I wasn't ready fro the real world because I was to gullible, I thought that people spoke the truth and didn't deceive and manipulate others for their own advantage. I learned that the hard way, and so when I have children I will be honest, and keep to my promises like my parents did. However, I will inform them of such people and teach them how to spot them so that they wouldn't have to go through what I did.
It starts at home. My parents taught me something and I'll never forget it, "They don't have to like you, but they do have to respect you." I'll never forget that. I learned good life lessons around 6/7. Asians are typically smarter than the rest in school and that's just the truth. Shoot, I probably would've failed math if it wasn't for Carmen Wu! HEEEEEY BOO! Love TiaTamera. Always maintained integrity and they've never taken their clothes off. I'm a fan.
To kinda answer Jeanie's question, there was a study comparing how Amerifan parents and I believe Chinese parents react when their child takes a random test. The American parent would say "it's okays its just a silly test you are still great." While the Chinese parent told their child "you did good but let's study alittle bit what you missed and make you do better."
Tamar's made progress though. On a previous episode she said she was raising a Mama's boy. I believe that the focus should be on the content of a child's character rather than their appearance and the child should grow up grounded on the principles of the word of God
***** The parents' strong relationship with God, their teaching the child the word of God and how to cultivate a relationship with Him, prayer and faith are the foundation for any christian household. That's the parents' part. The rest we leave to God.
I totally agree with Tamar!!!! You can't always be with your child if they're gonna how the real world really looks like they're gonna have to step out there solo!!! It's not easy but it's the best way for a child to transition to a mature responsible adult. It's gotta be at the right time though!!!
I completely agree with the ladies. I didn't experience my first real failure until I was 22 years old and it was completely devastating! I would have been much more prepared for the ups & downs of real life if I had experienced & overcome some failures as a child. I'm 35 now and honestly, I still struggle with accepting failure. Don't get me wrong, I was by no means spoiled as a child. I've always worked REALLY hard at everything I do, but I got used to the notion that hard work always led to a successful outcome and that's just not realistic.
I think they completely misunderstood Jeannie's question. She was asking why do they think it is that in the Asian community they are more hardworking and successful than other demographics.
There's always someone better than you, but if you work towards what you want to achieve and achieve that goal all those other people that are better than you wouldn't matter anymore. I always say don't look at other people, but focus on yourself and your own goals. That's what parents should tell their kids, to work hard for what they want.
Lulu ali I saw Tia on her cooking show and she had their Dad on. Tia said that she's always been a Daddy's girl. Tamera seems to be closer to their Mom.
Growing up and continuing to grow up in the Caribbean, I was taught that you have to work twice as hard. I love my parents and extended family for instilling that, because it definitely shaped me.
My dad has always taught me that what sets a successful person apart from the crowd is their mental toughness. With mental toughness you can achieve anything you want out of this life - something he and my mother have proven to be true.
My parents are tiger parents. Both of um. Telling me I needed to be better. They never said,"BAD!" They had said it's the effort. Now I'm thankful because I'm getting straight A's! They were hard on us but somehow it all payed off. The got ma ride when they were young so they want us to go to college and be successful on what we love and enjoy doing. Now I'm a total bookworm since birth and really musical(play the violin and sing)and hardworking.
Zazwa1 her statistics are actually incorrect as usual. Jeanie speaks things that are not correct at times. In mine Sociology class we learned that thinking Asians or pan Asians like she said our smart is actually a stereotype. Yes they do push their children to do better but that doesn't necessarily make them smarter. My sociology teacher was Asian she was Taiwanese.
which race in America is committing the most crimes? = blacks which race in America committing the least crimes? = pan asians jeannie never said asians were smarter, she said because asians have tiger moms, asians are excelling academically compared to other race
Sol Bingham that is incorrect. White people committ the most crimes yet black people get higher sentences from the same crime due to plain systematic racism.
I don’t like when parents punish their kids for a grade lower than an A. Like what is with people freaking out “omg I got a B+ on my exam my parents are going to kill me!” Like if my child got a c+ on an exam, and I know they applied themselves to the fullest, we’re celebrating! sure do better in the future but, even if they failed miserably, I can’t imagine grounding them. Sure summer classes but I’m not going to take away their entire summer vacation.
I am Hispanic, not Asian. Yet, I see statistically Jeannie is right Asians push their children to strive for success. I think it was childish how the panel glossed over the issues that truly affect minorities. Traditionally, Hispanics and African-Americans do not have a high-level of expectation for themselves, and statistics show that many never graduate from high school or ever get a chance to go to college. These are facts that must be addressed, but I guess the show is not willing to go there.
OlivTwist This I s the mist asinine thing I've heard. You do know their are 14 and 13 year old African American geniuses in college right? You also know that the women of NAPA were the first computers and the black women had to learn about actual computers to train everyone else right? The original scientists were in fact black Americans please tell me you know something more than statistical dribble?
I was taught about the real world since I was about 7 by my wonderful parents. BTW, Tamera looks really beautiful (I can't help myself from commenting it)
I raised myself most of my life than my parents did and I'm still ok. I'm proud of myself for that. It shows me I'll be a good parent. I have good grade and I'm not always stressed like I used to be. I'm confident and committed to do me. I still love my parent because they also helped me stay alive and wake up every morning.
I agree with the soccer, sports thing tho, I prefer to play for fun, and in life, come success or failure, I want to enjoy whatever it is I'm striving for, I don't compete with others, I only compete with myself, which goes with Tamera's Be the best you can be. Because that's what got me into my 1st choice college. My College Essay I wrote, I've failed countless times, but I never give up, and eventually I will succeed. I may not have a perfect 3.0 or 4.0 GPA, I'm proud of my 2.4 and that shouldn't determine whether or not I should be accepted to the school or define my path to graduate with a degree.
I think being honest is important, i tell my nephew your going to be as good at something based off how much you practice it. He was a fan of Michael Jackson and thought he was naturally talented. So i made him watch Michael's practicing when he was young and than he understood.
I think this depends on the type of child you are raising.. Some children require extra pressure because its the only way you can really get them to show their A game. But there are some kids that don't require that much pressure because they are already hard on themselves and if you add too much more onto what they already tell themselves, it could break them down or push them into overload when they are already operating at full capacity.. When it comes to preparing your kids for the world, there's too much that needs to be taught and you will never get it right on your own because you don't know what kind of future your child is going to lead.. You can pressure them in one area, and be overly concerned about it, and then next thing you know when they are of age, they are driven to pursue a completely different walk of life. Its really a faith thing for me.. Each child I have has had a different temperament, needing different rules, direction and instruction, and without the grace of God and my faith in the Lord, I would have never had a clue about how to raise my kids.. God made them and He knows exactly what He created them to do both now and in the future.. I take it day by day with prayer and constantly seeking God for direction to ensure that I am raising children equipped for their own generation and not for mine or my parents'..
I don't believe anyone is better than me because there is only one me and my mother always said to compare myself to myself in order to well better myself. if someone gets an a on a test and I get a d, I will be happy for that person, but I know I need to step my game up. I agree with the ladies though. my mom strived to give me and my sister what we always wanted. my mom never failed to deliver, but with everything we were given it was due to good grades or helping out the community. we're not spoiled, but we are reminded to work even harder. I need to work hard to give back my mom even an inch of what she's given me. the Lord only knows how thankful I am for my mommy!!
tbd i just don't think it was that bad of a comment. She may not have been comparing herself to the girls on the panel. When she said it, I was think she was talking about people who are close to her, like her husband, family members, close friends. but i guess.
I like how they just dismissed Jeanie like that. She wasn't trying to say that Asians kids are the ONLY ones that work hard, she was citing a TRUE statistic. Statistically, areas that have high Pan-Asian IMMIGRANTS have some of the BEST public schools, with some of the HIGHEST test scores and grades! I think it has a lot to do with that "tiger-mom" and Immigrant mentality. I know personally, when I was growing up, My parents didn't comprehend the idea of me going to hang out with friends multiple times in the same month, or going out to dinners, or Prom or any of that... It is hard for them to relate, because you cant say "weren't you a kid once?" Because MY parents grew up in asia, without clean clothes or properly running water. My father didn't even have electricity for most of his childhood, and shared a room with 5 siblings. When A LOT of these immigrants come to the states they only know ONE THING.... Hard work + good grades leads to HIGH education and well paying jobs... THAT is why Asian parents are always pushing their kids to excel. Also, as Jeanie mentioned, some kids crack under this pressure... while other kids SOAR. Not saying that they are the best kids, because many of them end up becoming socially awkard, or only personable around OTHER asians, which can hinder them in other parts of life. Needless to say, Jeanie was onto something, but like many things Jeanie says, they are Shot down by Loni or Tamar.... Even if they aren't DIRECTLY trying to shut her down, they still do, haha.
My parents were very hard on me & my siblings. We grew up in a low income neighborhood so everyone was basically on government assistance but now that we are older we have good jobs and took our parents off of gov. help Now we may not be billionaires but we are living way better than how we used to.
Tamera's parents did a great job raising their children. They all turned out to be sweet, caring, humble down to earth....the list can go on... people.. 👍
couldn't agree more
SERIOUSLY! That entire family is just doing something right. I cant wait to see what happens with Tamera's kids and Tamar's son. I wonder what type of people they will be! And I wonder if any of the other three will spawn children, haha.
I am so happy that Tamera is the same person that I looked up to when I was younger. Tia too. It is refreshing to see that not all child stars fell of the wagon.

austinfrombustop facebook isnt as pleasant as it used to be ..go on celebrity page n see all the negative comments..just like youtube n instagram
I'm not in love with the blonde, but I think she looks like a queen! Haters gonna hate.
Exactly
“There’s always somebody that’s gonna be fatter than me.” 😂😂😂😂😂
Tamera's mother sounds like my mom. A realest, period.
Tamar: "That's why you so coint up!" Tamera: YES...! (but then realizes what Tamar just said)....>.> okay? Bahahahaha. I don't think Ive ever seen Tamera give anyone the side eye.
+shinyjewelsz I read these comments just to see if anyone else mentioned it! I laughed so hard!!!
My grandpa said the same thing that Tameras mom said ! Always humble yourself & don’t get holier than thou
I learned about work ethics and success at a very young age. I wasn't ready fro the real world because I was to gullible, I thought that people spoke the truth and didn't deceive and manipulate others for their own advantage. I learned that the hard way, and so when I have children I will be honest, and keep to my promises like my parents did. However, I will inform them of such people and teach them how to spot them so that they wouldn't have to go through what I did.
Same here!!
It starts at home. My parents taught me something and I'll never forget it, "They don't have to like you, but they do have to respect you." I'll never forget that. I learned good life lessons around 6/7. Asians are typically smarter than the rest in school and that's just the truth. Shoot, I probably would've failed math if it wasn't for Carmen Wu! HEEEEEY BOO! Love TiaTamera. Always maintained integrity and they've never taken their clothes off. I'm a fan.
To kinda answer Jeanie's question, there was a study comparing how Amerifan parents and I believe Chinese parents react when their child takes a random test.
The American parent would say "it's okays its just a silly test you are still great." While the Chinese parent told their child "you did good but let's study alittle bit what you missed and make you do better."
LONI IS LOOOKING SOOOO BEAUTIFUL!!!
mama mowry said they WILL be normal lol
I love these ladies..always speaking truth! The real world is not easy!
Tamar's made progress though. On a previous episode she said she was raising a Mama's boy.
I believe that the focus should be on the content of a child's character rather than their appearance and the child should grow up grounded on the principles of the word of God
***** The parents' strong relationship with God, their teaching the child the word of God and how to cultivate a relationship with Him, prayer and faith are the foundation for any christian household. That's the parents' part. The rest we leave to God.
I totally agree with Tamar!!!! You can't always be with your child if they're gonna how the real world really looks like they're gonna have to step out there solo!!! It's not easy but it's the best way for a child to transition to a mature responsible adult. It's gotta be at the right time though!!!
I completely agree with the ladies. I didn't experience my first real failure until I was 22 years old and it was completely devastating! I would have been much more prepared for the ups & downs of real life if I had experienced & overcome some failures as a child. I'm 35 now and honestly, I still struggle with accepting failure. Don't get me wrong, I was by no means spoiled as a child. I've always worked REALLY hard at everything I do, but I got used to the notion that hard work always led to a successful outcome and that's just not realistic.
I am a princess parent but yes it isnt the best thing to set your child up for in the future. Thanks for this. Gonna go with what Tamera's mom said.
I love when people see their mistakes, good for you. You can do it!!
Ashleigh Cross Yep, me too! It is obvious that she loves her child/children and willing to do what's best for them. She's and will be a good mom!
Ashleigh Cross thank you :)
Esther Grace thank you :)
💕
I think they completely misunderstood Jeannie's question. She was asking why do they think it is that in the Asian community they are more hardworking and successful than other demographics.
Anisa Antoinette they understood they just didn't want to answer her question
Are people in the Asian community more hard working than anyone else? What statistics prove the state of hard work?
They don't.
There's always someone better than you, but if you work towards what you want to achieve and achieve that goal all those other people that are better than you wouldn't matter anymore. I always say don't look at other people, but focus on yourself and your own goals. That's what parents should tell their kids, to work hard for what they want.
Yes !!! I love what you're saying about focusing on yourself & to not get distracted.
Is it me or does Tamera almost never mentions her dad? We only know he is white...
Lulu ali I saw Tia on her cooking show and she had their Dad on. Tia said that she's always been a Daddy's girl. Tamera seems to be closer to their Mom.
LumiereDarling !!!
100% true Loni gotta be better than everyone
The real was the BEST back then!! I miss it like this!!
Y'all hate on Tamar but she is the only one to *really* experiment with her looks. They aren't always on point but they are never boring.
Growing up and continuing to grow up in the Caribbean, I was taught that you have to work twice as hard. I love my parents and extended family for instilling that, because it definitely shaped me.
My dad has always taught me that what sets a successful person apart from the crowd is their mental toughness. With mental toughness you can achieve anything you want out of this life - something he and my mother have proven to be true.
Loni is hilarious at times 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yep I was taught the same thing as Tamera!
Prettygirlcn5 me too
Love Tamar's hair. Hi Loni - Love you girl! :)
lmboooo. Omg Loni had me dying in laughter for like a minute..."Im not the fattest person in the world" lolol. But LOVING Tamar's look today!
My parents are tiger parents. Both of um. Telling me I needed to be better. They never said,"BAD!" They had said it's the effort. Now I'm thankful because I'm getting straight A's! They were hard on us but somehow it all payed off. The got ma ride when they were young so they want us to go to college and be successful on what we love and enjoy doing. Now I'm a total bookworm since birth and really musical(play the violin and sing)and hardworking.
Loni😂 don’t ever change! Be the best you you can be 🥰
I feel like they got offended when Jeannie talked about the statistics regarding the Asian community's academic achievements
Zazwa1 I noticed that too. You can't get mad at statistics 🙄
Zazwa1 her statistics are actually incorrect as usual. Jeanie speaks things that are not correct at times. In mine Sociology class we learned that thinking Asians or pan Asians like she said our smart is actually a stereotype. Yes they do push their children to do better but that doesn't necessarily make them smarter. My sociology teacher was Asian she was Taiwanese.
which race in America is committing the most crimes? = blacks
which race in America committing the least crimes? = pan asians
jeannie never said asians were smarter, she said because asians have tiger moms, asians are excelling academically compared to other race
Sol Bingham that is incorrect. White people committ the most crimes yet black people get higher sentences from the same crime due to plain systematic racism.
Truth Hurts that’s not true
Loni did a good job of guiding the conversation and listening to others here.
Lonnie funny as shyt !! "...because I'm happy because there's always somebody fatter than me so I believe that" 😅😂😂😭
Looove this topic! It was so intestino cause you dont see nthis kind of discussion in many regulars TV shows. Love this girls. Greetings from Colombia
I don’t like when parents punish their kids for a grade lower than an A. Like what is with people freaking out “omg I got a B+ on my exam my parents are going to kill me!” Like if my child got a c+ on an exam, and I know they applied themselves to the fullest, we’re celebrating! sure do better in the future but, even if they failed miserably, I can’t imagine grounding them. Sure summer classes but I’m not going to take away their entire summer vacation.
I am Hispanic, not Asian. Yet, I see statistically Jeannie is right Asians push their children to strive for success. I think it was childish how the panel glossed over the issues that truly affect minorities. Traditionally, Hispanics and African-Americans do not have a high-level of expectation for themselves, and statistics show that many never graduate from high school or ever get a chance to go to college. These are facts that must be addressed, but I guess the show is not willing to go there.
OlivTwist This I s the mist asinine thing I've heard. You do know their are 14 and 13 year old African American geniuses in college right? You also know that the women of NAPA were the first computers and the black women had to learn about actual computers to train everyone else right? The original scientists were in fact black Americans please tell me you know something more than statistical dribble?
Tamar need this lesson more than Logan
I love Tamar, she looked around when Tamera said there is always gonna be someone prettier than you.
I was taught about the real world since I was about 7 by my wonderful parents. BTW, Tamera looks really beautiful (I can't help myself from commenting it)
4:15 lol I luv them 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I like this look on Loni. She looks extra gorgeous today!
I love me some REAL DAYTIME
Loni said you may be the frog 🐸 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I encourage my children to love and respect each other, love themselves, focus, work hard and be kind to others
These were the good old days
Yes Tamar!! Makeup on point, it's giving me 90's fierceness. I love that 90's makeup is back!
i loveeee me some Tamar, but i love her even more when she talks about Logan and being a mom. its a much more mature side of her.
I looooove their discussions!
This is my favourite chat segment so far!
I literally lecture my mom that I want to work and be independent, I love her but she spoils me a bit too much.. 😂💕

I raised myself most of my life than my parents did and I'm still ok. I'm proud of myself for that. It shows me I'll be a good parent. I have good grade and I'm not always stressed like I used to be. I'm confident and committed to do me. I still love my parent because they also helped me stay alive and wake up every morning.
omg loni, lol. just love her 💜
4:29-4:30 - Tamera is so cute!!
My mom said "There is always someone who has it better than you, and there is always someone who has it worse than you."
I agree with the soccer, sports thing tho, I prefer to play for fun, and in life, come success or failure, I want to enjoy whatever it is I'm striving for, I don't compete with others, I only compete with myself, which goes with Tamera's Be the best you can be. Because that's what got me into my 1st choice college. My College Essay I wrote, I've failed countless times, but I never give up, and eventually I will succeed. I may not have a perfect 3.0 or 4.0 GPA, I'm proud of my 2.4 and that shouldn't determine whether or not I should be accepted to the school or define my path to graduate with a degree.
I think being honest is important, i tell my nephew your going to be as good at something based off how much you practice it. He was a fan of Michael Jackson and thought he was naturally talented. So i made him watch Michael's practicing when he was young and than he understood.
Loni is hilarious I love her 😍
1:29 Tamar thought, "Toni Braxton",Lol
tamars tan on fleek
The ladies give great advice I should take notes for the future.
I REALLY ENJOYED THIS CLIP. You ladies never let me down! love u ladies!
I think this depends on the type of child you are raising.. Some children require extra pressure because its the only way you can really get them to show their A game. But there are some kids that don't require that much pressure because they are already hard on themselves and if you add too much more onto what they already tell themselves, it could break them down or push them into overload when they are already operating at full capacity..
When it comes to preparing your kids for the world, there's too much that needs to be taught and you will never get it right on your own because you don't know what kind of future your child is going to lead.. You can pressure them in one area, and be overly concerned about it, and then next thing you know when they are of age, they are driven to pursue a completely different walk of life.
Its really a faith thing for me.. Each child I have has had a different temperament, needing different rules, direction and instruction, and without the grace of God and my faith in the Lord, I would have never had a clue about how to raise my kids.. God made them and He knows exactly what He created them to do both now and in the future.. I take it day by day with prayer and constantly seeking God for direction to ensure that I am raising children equipped for their own generation and not for mine or my parents'..
Loni is hilarious !!!!!! Lol
I don't believe anyone is better than me because there is only one me and my mother always said to compare myself to myself in order to well better myself. if someone gets an a on a test and I get a d, I will be happy for that person, but I know I need to step my game up. I agree with the ladies though. my mom strived to give me and my sister what we always wanted. my mom never failed to deliver, but with everything we were given it was due to good grades or helping out the community. we're not spoiled, but we are reminded to work even harder. I need to work hard to give back my mom even an inch of what she's given me. the Lord only knows how thankful I am for my mommy!!
This was a very important topic and I really love their point of view on preparing our children for life.👍
I always teach to congratulate whether you win or not. Good game. Good job. Teaches good sportsmanship. Teaches maturity.
love tamar's look d hair on fleek!
Why did Tamar laugh after Jeannie said she was the most hardworking person she knew?
because it's a narcissistic and dismissive thing to say next to all your coworkers.
She could have easily be laughing @ anything else though
tbd
but tamar has said on the show that she thinks she looks better than her co-hosts. so idk, for some reason, that sounds worse.
Shelly Djanga so did Adrienne in Lie Detector test. That was playing. Jeannie was insisting how much she "really" feels this way.
tbd
i just don't think it was that bad of a comment. She may not have been comparing herself to the girls on the panel. When she said it, I was think she was talking about people who are close to her, like her husband, family members, close friends. but i guess.
You might be the frog 😂😂😂😂
1:43 now I feel better about myself 😂
I agree with Adrianne 💯%
I like how they just dismissed Jeanie like that. She wasn't trying to say that Asians kids are the ONLY ones that work hard, she was citing a TRUE statistic. Statistically, areas that have high Pan-Asian IMMIGRANTS have some of the BEST public schools, with some of the HIGHEST test scores and grades! I think it has a lot to do with that "tiger-mom" and Immigrant mentality. I know personally, when I was growing up, My parents didn't comprehend the idea of me going to hang out with friends multiple times in the same month, or going out to dinners, or Prom or any of that... It is hard for them to relate, because you cant say "weren't you a kid once?" Because MY parents grew up in asia, without clean clothes or properly running water. My father didn't even have electricity for most of his childhood, and shared a room with 5 siblings. When A LOT of these immigrants come to the states they only know ONE THING.... Hard work + good grades leads to HIGH education and well paying jobs... THAT is why Asian parents are always pushing their kids to excel. Also, as Jeanie mentioned, some kids crack under this pressure... while other kids SOAR. Not saying that they are the best kids, because many of them end up becoming socially awkard, or only personable around OTHER asians, which can hinder them in other parts of life. Needless to say, Jeanie was onto something, but like many things Jeanie says, they are Shot down by Loni or Tamar.... Even if they aren't DIRECTLY trying to shut her down, they still do, haha.
My parents were very hard on me & my siblings. We grew up in a low income neighborhood so everyone was basically on government assistance but now that we are older we have good jobs and took our parents off of gov. help
Now we may not be billionaires but we are living way better than how we used to.
Tiger moms are defiantly in the indian community
Tamera said it right "theres may be somone pretty or more successful but what matters is you being the BEST you"
MISS YOU TAMAR!!😍
Well, I think Tamar looks beautiful. Dang, every video somebody's hating on Tamar's appearance. And I loved this segment.
I'm not tamars biggest fan but she really seems to be a great parent
