barbara was my elementary art teacher and we’re still in contact today (im going into college). for anyone wondering the girones are really that amazing. she was a support system for me during my parents divorce. she invited me to roller skate and do yoga with her and her friends and family because she knew i loved that stuff. and i met tim once and he is literally the COOLEST. she changed and saved my life. i absolutely love her and her family.
Barbara and her husband behave in a more charitable and loving way than the condescending Christian, dictating to others how they should live,while neglecting her own family's needs, whose husband and children looked like they'd forgotten to live. Her behaviour is abusive. Sad
I love the tattooed dad allowing his son to cry and even letting him see him cry. They're parenting style is going to end up better in the long term teaching him to do something just because it's the good and kind thing to do.
Yes! I don't know anything about parenting, but i wish my parents had the ability to ease up and let their emotions show like that! When Vincenso finally accepted Alyse, it was because he chose to do so, not because he had to, and that must have been a HUGE learning lesson for him. That scene really touched me
@Chè McFarland You can be friendly with your child but not their friend and that boundary should be clear. Its great to encourage your child to be a freethinker but a child needs to learn about rules and behavior's to be able to cope in school and in society with their parents guidance
I thought their boy was spoiled and rude. His parents are not his parents they're his friend. Teaching your kid to never listen when you ask them to do something is not going to work well for them as he gets older.
melted my heart when dad and his daughter connected....over making hamburgers.... he is a good man his daughters just need him more active in their life
I guess it was because they were doing something together without a Certain Person being hostile and critical. It could also be because a Certain Someone wasn't around to be a negative dictator/ dictatress. They must be chopping up some pretty strong onions as I have tears in my eyes!!!
@@jkarns2285 probably was brighter when he first met her but after years of put downs he changed probably cos she is such a dictatorship he probably pulled away to himself for the sake of peace
@@gassbaggerwoods5955 That's exactly what it is. She has destroyed his esteem. It's abuse and saying he's as bright as a brown crayon must never have been beaten down mentally and emotionally by a controlling mean mouthed person.
Seems like her mom would put a stop to that. She wants to act so excepting, reality she only excepts to people that agree with her. She's the most horrible closed minded control freak I've ever seen. I'm sure she has a different God than any Christian I've ever seen.
I find it interesting that Alyce expects a child to have the grace and open-mindedness to accept her different views when she and her mother treat everybody who doesn't follow their beliefs 100% like crap.
@@amberrose1108 They're the sort of people to put others off Christianity. In Joyce's bible study she came across as non accepting, judgmental and condemning, all the things she probably didn't want to appear and why has Alyce married a non christian if its all so very important to her ? Defies belief. The other couple were much more accepting, kind and respectful to others.
Jacqueline McGarvie a lot of we Christians have a hard time understanding that God wants to change US. Through brokenness and humility. We really need Him. Religion creeps in , Jesus warned strongly about this ...”beware of the leaven of the Pharisees!” A little leave a (puffs up) the whole lump. the hardest thing in the world is being a Christian. EVERYONE stereotypes you. It’s a beginning. Like being born is just a beginning.
I LOVE the father of Vincenzo--he actually told his son to "go ahead and cry" Pretty much just telling him to get his feelings out and to acknowledge their feelings! Damn! Imo, that's one of the best things you can tell your child--that it's ok to acknowledge their feelings! Especially when it comes to boys and crying because society has stigmatized crying for hundreds of years and it's so bad for a child's mental health.
She is full of it, she is on Facebook now with a new guy, wearing skimpy, sexy clothes. I never understand these people who are so devout religiously and end up completely turning the other way. It shows their faith wasn't a strong to begin with and they sit up and judge other people.
@@LisaGTrueCrimeGuru yea she might be afraid of hell but a true believer of Christ is moreso dishonored to hurt Him than to be afraid of anything. Fear is not apart of a person who truly believes. Alyce, is unfortunately not the best representation of a Christian. And here you are disrespecting my Savior as a result. It's hard to understand when you don't know. But things will be harder if you never find out.
@@ENIGMA-tangerino555 Very disheartening for me and I didn't even cook so I could only imagine the girls thoughts& feelings... They just knew mama was gonna be proud and praise them.
I think Tim wants a divorce... actually you can see it in his eyes. They have ZERO connection to each other, and if there was ever a connection, it is gone.
Enable FRANCE he literally said “the main reason her and I are still together is because we don’t believe in divorce” I’m paraphrasing but it’s in the beginning when they’re introducing the couple.. if that doesn’t scream I want a divorce idk what does
The end of this episode is hard to watch. Alyce was so rude after Tim and the girls worked so hard to cook dinner for her. The end shot with her bouquet of flowers lying on the counter was just too sad. Also, I can’t believe she freaked out about alcohol in her home. Didn’t Jesus turn water into wine?!
Barb should've allocated some of that money for marriage counseling. Lord knows they needed it. I honestly would not be surprised in the least if they aren't divorced by now- that was definitely the direction they were headed
P Litty you’re right, I just looked and there are no pictures of Tim and Alyce together nor does Alyce have any pictures of the baby brother so I’m guessing they are divorced
Is it just me or does it seem like Tim with the 3 kids is wishing this wife swap was permanent right at the end ? She actually showed him he needs to be more involved with the family. And the other Tim, omg. It was amazing how much he really wanted his child to accept the new mommy and look at the fact that she is in an awkward spot: this episode was very touching overall.
Can you see how happy Tim got when his wife was reading all the things that barb said in her note that included him. He felt so appreciated and looked liked he got quite excited
Poor Tim :( before he seemed so brainwashed and when the new mum came it was like he remembered who he was again! I hope him and his daughters find happiness!
As a true born again Christian, we are told in the bible to go Ye into the world and preach the bible. We are to obey and please GOD. We need to try to be loving , gentle and caring!! We are not perfect and I never claim to be. When we accept JESUS: HE is who saves us. We are far too sinful and cannot save ourselves.
Wow Tim what a fantastic parent he is, like seriously he’s all id ever want in a father for my kids well done sir you & your wife are fantastic parents active & emotionally available this is how it should be done bravo ❤
I bet Alyce is embarrassed of herself lol! Possibly not considering she thinks she's, what everyone else should believe is, "normal"! That woman needs thrown in an environment where she can't control even her own self and she can eventually let loose and learn to relax and not worry about everything!! She needs to pull the stick out her bumper and realize life will still be great and fun even if you make mistakes! The world consists of so many religions and beliefs but that doesn't mean bc someone else believes otherwise, that they're a terrible person and God, or whoever ot whatever you believe in, won't accept and love you! I believe as long as you have faith in yourself to be a good person and do good, and care for others.... your set!!!*
@1993 i know sometimes you can find the actual ppl, but i wish they'd have updates from the show! Hey, i was born in 81, so I remember when we had our first apple computers lmbo!!
@@jessicarenae5107 Well said Jessica Look at the Mother that raised her. Many people need to feel superior to others to feel power. It happens in politics too judging someone as stupid or less than.
It really broke my heart that the second she walked through the door she started a fight. She also didn't even give a passing glance to her children and husband making dinner for her.
I think she was raging with jealousy when she got home are meeting the other mum, seeing how beautiful she was and couldn't handle it. I think she is really insecure about herself.
I actually broke down crying over just how sweet Barb and Tim's family are. I've grown up in dysfunctional home so my positive experiences were broken up by the sad ones. Seeing a genuinely caring and supportive, open-minded family is so heartwarming. To most this might sound like cheesy nonsense but it's really comforting to know that there's people out there with so much good to give to the world and the people around them.
Tim family are loving accepting caring people and there son just lovely I wouldn't want god thrown at me either the more you push the more you don't want it as for Alyse not very christian at all her husband was so much happier without her and kids as well her family make her a meal so rude even if you weren't hungry you would sit and eat together as a family reunited shows her true colours hides behind a Bible to be a narcissist
Just Reading Your Comment Made Me Shed Happie Tears And Believe In The Purity Of Humanity Without Using Religion As Means To Tolerate Others. Thank You And I Wish Nothing But The Best For You And Your Loved Ones In Life. Sending Good And Positives Vibes In All Your Endevours!! 😊🤗👐🙌🙏🤝💕
@@elaroach I feel so sorry for the girls. If Tim doesn't become more active in their lives the older 2 are gonna wind up getting pregnant at a young age!!
esp since a freind who passed of cancer a few yrs back showed me the art , i havent done it lately but ya , and iroincally she had a niece jocelyn , i dont hear the name often adn thats right
I'm a Christ follower, too, and goodness...every Christian I've seen on this program so far are very unkind, controlling and very unfriendly to the other family and their own. :(
I’m not a Christian, but I grew up in a very conservative Christian household. I think they specifically choose people who will cause drama or else the show wouldn’t be interesting. I know a lot of Christians who would never act this way, but that doesn’t make good tv. 🤷🏽♀️
@@jiayouchinese I think you're right. I can't imagine a person that is Christian ever going on a show like this because we all know these 'reality' shows are highly edited to portray the people they way the shows creators want them portrayed. And yeah, they don't like Christianity. To be fair, there are lots of other people they make look horrible too. Gives the viewers a side to cheer for.
Effortlesslygolden no. She just doesn’t stereotype herself. Hard for you to think outside of the box of what she SHOULD Think and act like. She’s an INDIVIDUAL . you are sooo shallow.
That man is one heck of a father. Hes teaching his child the value of love. It doesn't matter your own beliefs, your children need to make a conscious choice of what they want to believe
He's a caring father and his heart's in the right place, but without structure and boundaries the kid is gonna be spoiled and think the world revolves around him.
She thought 1000$ towards art was worthless because she didn’t know her daughter loved art and drew an amazing picture!! But she puts 100$ towards scrapbooking/ art! Yes, she’s very close minded
An “Old Testament Christian” would be called a Jew. Judaism was the religion of choice, Christianity wasn’t created until Jesus Christ came... hence the term “Christian” but the origins of the religion is Judaism 🙄
using the Lord's name in vain is not what people think. It's actually using it to get benefits. Such as "give me money and i'll pray for you". you see that a lot with preachers that were on TV during this time.
@@poundsdownpaige35 I'm sure he'd be super happy with it being used as a replacement for a swear word though. Shows a huge disconnect between her words and her actions, also a lack of respect on her part towards her god in general
Yes I thought I didn't believe in divorce just as my husband but 18 yrs with him I can't wait to get me back even if not all of me that's a start. People who insist on no divorce know they have a problem
I think a “no divorce policy” is good for a marriage. For the simple fact that you will not always be happy. Well unless there is actual abuse. It’s up to both parties to put in the effort to be connected.
If my near-future husband isn't as emotionally intelligent and beautiful within the soul as tattooed Tim, I'll be presenting my receipt for a refund stat! He is just divine, a great husband and a sweet father.
The Girone family seems like such a sweet and loving family. I felt really bad for Tim from the Hammond family at the end bc he got her flowers and dinner and none of it was appreciated. 😢
@helenjing9363 I bet you his friends and family tried to help him to open his eyes to what he was getting himself into but I guess he just couldnt see it. What type of a person rejects a welcome dinner and flowers from hea very eager family? My heart goes out to Tims mom who can only stand on the son and watch her son and grandkids being twisted by one family member,
Was curious to see how the Hammond family is now, so decided to look them up on social media (I know that's slightly creepy but was super curious) and here is what I found: Alyce and Tim got divorced and Tim remarried. The girls grew up to be absolutely stunning (honestly look like models)!! And the family seems to be a lot more open-minded - girls have tattoos and one was on Wild N' Out. Also Alyce glowed up a lot too!! Looks so gorgeous right now (she was already beautiful in this video). crazy how much things changed for them! Hope all is well for both families.
I personally would never get a tattoo, but I like the Tattoo Lady because she does a good job on tattoos, she seems nice, she does not judge harshly, she is open-minded and a good parent.
Many people question Agnostics because they don’t really understand what we believe in. Tim and Barb are a beautiful example of what we’re about and our belief system. We accept everyone and love everyone regardless of their beliefs or anything else! I wish there were more parents in the world like them. Alyce is also the perfect example of why I walked away from Christianity 14 years ago. Great episode!
hello moto I don’t know where we came from. There are theories, but nobody really knows for a fact. As far as “the point of life,” that’s different for everyone.
@@YouAreGoingToLoseMe87 I believe that Allah created everything, but that belief isn't for everyone. A more widely accepted idea is that we came from millions or even billions of years of breeding and evolution to get to the point that we're at. As for the point of life...I dunno, just have fun while you have time, I suppose.
Exactly! And I loved how absolutely NO ONE at that party (other than the grandma) was upset about the alcohol and in fact had what I assume is a MUCH better time than they usually have at a party at that house, lol! I feel like Alyse ghosted them all after she watched the show because she actually thought that just because they don't drink around her that they never drink. Ugh, she and the grandma are so out of touch; you'd think the friends had all been smoking crack in the house, they way they were both going on about it!
I love Barb and Moya together. It was great watching Barb’s preconceived notions after spending time with Joyce crumble after they started talking about tattoos. Truly beautiful and life affirming
@Candy Girl she dropped several clues like.. It's not my fault your hair is nappy??? Just coz she's wearing a wig she forgets under that is her own nappy hair? 🙄
@Nicole Jessicait just didn't sound right from a mom raising black girls to negatively refer to her natural God given hair in a tone that's questionable.
Ntonhle Shamah SHES very strong . Do you think “maybe” it’s not easy for her to be married to a white man? To “sence hate” from BOTH SIDES? MAYBE that’s what you are picking up and interpret as self hatred. And n”MAYYYBE” she doesn’t WANT to be associated with the negitive things that she sees in her own people? Not saying that’s righteous but totally understandable. Just like I don’t like being called a Christian. It means “Christlike” and I’m NOT always acting like the Stereotype of what others want to paint me.
It infuriatesme when people force their religion on someone who doesn't WANT religion. Religion is based of what YOU believe. They won't believe it & you can't change that. Keep your religion to yourself. Religion is a personal belief. If she was forced into believing some religion & converting to it, she'd be pissed. So why it to them.
Wow, the way Alyce snapped at her daughters and husband after they worked so hard to make sure she had a wonderful welcome home, was hideous! You could see the sadness in her daughter’s eyes, immediately! I’ve been binging these episodes the last few days. I’m grateful that someone has taken the time to upload the episodes, because I miss this show. But how many of these episodes finish with one spouse almost dreading the other’s return. In like 4 episodes, you can see that the husbands finally realize what a mistake they’ve made. It’s quite sad, to be honest! Some of these wives are truly demeaning to their husbands, and they find zero fault with that. 🤷🏼♀️
I have been binge watching these as well Jodi ! Have you seen the Zandi/Fraiser episode? I loved that one ! It made my heart swell to see two women so open and kind to each other at the end of the show. That’s what women should do, build each other up instead of criticize each other. It is one of my favorite episodes.
59:00 let those feelings flow. It's so good that dad n son can talk and cry together. Good dad. He tells the son about how hard it is for the lady, it's just a hard situation all around.
Random ASMR not only that, but is mentioned in the Old and New Testament SEVERAL times. I don’t take any “Christian” seriously that makes a habit of that. Yeah, words slip- but when it’s a habit like that it feels intentional.
@@mandigurl2341 Her behavior overall was blatantly hypocritical. All their talk of Jesus dying on the cross (in the Christian faith it represents the ultimate sacrifice of love), and their method of "witnessing" was to show no love, tolerance or even a sliver of compassion. I believe in God but not organized religion - but even an atheist would have shown BASIC kindness. They add to the many who perpetuate the stereotypical pushy, close-minded "Christian". And I've seen a lot of good christian people get bashed because of these types.
I thought the same thing watching this. And I'm sure it's played up for the cameras, but like his fantasy football whatever started RIGHT as New Mom came in to ask if he wanted to join them??
Tims mom was so sad. She wasnt allowed around her grandkids much. She didn't even feel like part of her family because Alease was so controlling & judgemental. Religion shouldn't tear family apart. I hope things got better for these families.
Religion shouldn’t be the driving force in a family at all. And I honestly feel that Alyce is a self absorbed, angry, judge mental, bible thumping snob who doesn’t accept anyone else’s beliefs but her own. The other mother is very accepting and all out nice person.
This is the second swap I've seen with a very religious person. Why do they get so SCARED when presented with things that aren't completely, extremely Christian? It's very bizarre to me. I can't imagine their entire life is just living in a Christ bubble, but that's the way they act.
Most Christians I see don't even mention religion and this lady brings it up within the first 5 minutes! Not sure if they played it up for TV or just happen to find the most outspoken people.
As a fellow Christian, I did not care for Alyce at all. She said Vincenzo was not nice to her, but she wasn't nice to him. I would have shut her out, too. You can't go into someone's home and berate them for not believing like you do and then expect them to accept you. This was years and years ago, so hopefully she changed and saw how awful her attitude was as well as her mother's. Nobody wants to be around people like that. And then, she sits there and wrinkles her nose at almost everything she was given in the letter. What happened to being grateful? I liked the other family better. They seemed happier, honestly.
So sad how Tim seems so unhappy and his mother is shunned from the family that way. He’s probably on the computer talking to other woman and hopefully he leaves that cult loving nasty woman!
This really shows that calling yourself a Christian doesn't make you a good person. Barbara was so open minded and accepting. Alysa was so terrible. I hope her husband grows a pair and finds someone that actually loves and appreciates him.
@@Kims_Whims When one stands up to people like her, there is such an explosion from them, it's so ugly that eventually it's easier to avoid the repercussions of standing up to them. Voice of experience here...but eventually I did stand up.... He will too
Alyce actually seemed like she had the potential to be a nice, sweet person. All of the negative parts of her personality definitely came from being brainwashed by her mother.
Alyce is controlling and motionless..she didn’t hug her hubby or eat the dinner..she couldn’t wait to get things back in order as she stated..I think she was jealous of the new relationships..happy reunion with tears in my eyes..
I liked the Girone family. I was impressed with the way Tim Girone encouraged his son to listen to someone with different views than his own. I thought a lesson here for Alyce was: get to know them first and be a real friend before trying to evangelize. Once she scrap-booked with Vincenzo, he was willing to listen to her. I also think Alyce has been very unfairly dumped on in the comments. I didn't see her do anything awful. I myself have backed away from evangelicals who put THEIR faith front and center and demand I believe as they do at first meeting. I am Christian but I'm not good enough until I'm THEIR KIND of Christian. I get it. I get why Barb and Tim didn't immediately change their minds. Alyce and her mother need to LOVE FIRST. But I also understand that Alyce says these things because she genuinely believes that these people she's coming to care for are going to end up in a bad place for all eternity and she genuinely cares about this and about them. I had a friend who was a Jehovah's Witness and was always on me that I had to become JW. In the end, it killed our friendship. I believe my faith has me on the right path and I pray and believe God has mercy if not. BUT THE KEY IS: I have always believed my friend cared about my eternity. Yes, I think she's wrong. But her heart is in the right place and I would never say the hateful, awful things about her that are being said here about Alyce. She DOES CARE for these people. And she was very gracious in stepping into a world very foreign to her and reaching out to these people in the way she knew how. It makes me sad to see how many are wishing her husband has dumped her. She may not be perfect...but none of us are. And we should remember that in the comments we make. Most of us are doing the best we know how to do for our spouses and children and I saw a woman who was confronted with a world very different than her own and chose to love these people in the way she knew how and came home weary and confused and not hungry, yet apparently sat down at the table with her family to talk Let us all remember that these reality shows are not 100% real. They pick a narrative. They edit and splice. My son was there when a reality show was made ('reality') and saw how much the 'reality' show was directed and pushed toward narratives. Be careful what you believe.
Yes, these shows are so fake! Scripted and highly edited. I've seen where people that have been on or worked on reality shows have said they even cut reactions and paste them into other parts of the video. So when someone looks disgusted or angry, or says something snippy, a lot of the time the show has taken that and pasted it in to make it look like the person was reacting that way to something somebody said or did. or reacting to something about the house or the decor or something. Alyce is being treated very unfairly in the comments. She went along with trying a yoga session that went a direction she had not expected and I think she kind of regretted it. But she was open to trying the things that were important to the family she was visiting. And she did not push the devotional reading on the little boy when he didn't want to do it. They did not even visit a church like she had wanted to. The other lady took alcohol into an alcohol free home with the kids there and didn't seem to have asked the kids how they would feel about that.
@McKenna Bowers ~ maybe I'm wrong but i think when she heard them I think she thought it was some kind of gay thing 😂 when she saw it was yoga she still had to hate
Yeah, I don't get why she didn't just say "I'm uncomfortable, I'd like to stop now" when she decided the yoga was too much for her. She's a grown ass woman and she certainly wasn't shy about condemning "unholy" things the rest of the show! If she really thought he was performing "rituals" on her or whatever, I'd think she's be out of there in a flash, not just letting a man who's not her husband keep touching her, if she didn't think that was appropriate.
YASSSS!!! We had the punk family, now I get my Metalhead Mama!!! I forgot about this episode and how hypocritical she was as far as not judging others, but Dad was very upset that his kid was not being open-minded. What's funny is that I'm a proud and serious Christian, as well as a HUGE metalhead! I simply cannot wait to have my own husband, and children to raise with the best of both worlds!
My heart goes out to poor Tim, the poor guy’s been totally emasculated. Alyce is a total control freak! To think that he feels obligated to stay married to her is just heart breaking. The other family was so much happier, although I think it’s O.K. to ask Vincenzo to help out a bit more, not just “do you want to help me do xyz”…. Nobody wants to do housework, but chipping in and helping out is also part of being a supportive and cohesive family…
That was honestly cruel. I don’t care if you’ve recently stuffed down a three-course meal, just PRETEND and be bloody grateful. She had no regard for their feelings and effort whatsoever 😠
Aaliyah Valentino I am not Christian but I always thought Christianity said god was supposed to love everyone and that we should to and wanted us to be kind to everyone so I never get it when I seen Christians like this on tv I am always there like well aren’t you doing something just as bad by treating someone badly for something that’s not hurting anyone even if you don’t support gays or tattoos it’s not like it’s gonna affect you so bc nice it’s not like they killed someone but is I feel like they are in a different kinda church
Also Alyce is freaked out about yoga and thinks it's unGodly 😂😂😂 mm-k alyce ya muppet! Her asking the husband about his beliefs and then telling him he's wrong....cringey. He should have called her out for being a hypocrite.
@Trainurmind 2C ~ So let me ask you...how many ppl that practice yoga (and I'm not talking devoted Yogis I'm talking say a suburban mom) do you think even know that? All it is touted as now is a form of stretching and relaxation. Other than weirdos like Elise how many ppl are going to even associate yoga and religion? Especially when you see it offered on women's church retreats 😂 Elise thinks she has it figured out but she isn't even Christian. She is a brain washed zombie walking around spouting out the garbage that fire and brimstone preacher is selling them. She had no idea what SHE believes because all she knows is what she's been spoon fed prob since birth to believe. She's never had the presence of mind to question anything or examine it. She mindlessly accepts it. Sorry that's NOT a Christian. These episodes that feature ones like her amaze me. It really makes me wonder how they read their Bible and yet act the way they do. Where in the Bible does it say ANYWHERE to reject anything that is unlike you? From what I knew of the Bible from my years in church Jesus was loving and accepting and even when hurt or insulted he turned the other cheek and showed LOVE and that is what shows ppl that Jesus is the way. I don't remember any Bible verses or parables where Jesus didn't like how someone looked so he treated that person as if they were beneath them as Elise does. THAT is much more unGodly than yoga!! As the husband said he could call her out for being a hypocrite because shes certainly not practicing love thy neighbor is she? But he chose the high road which seems to be a pattern in the shows. It's not the "Christians" that are accepting and respectful it's the "pagans" while the Christians attack and demean. That is why so many ppl have such an unflattering view of Christianity!! Elise could easily be the spokeswoman for "how Christians SHOULDNT act" or the poster child of "Churches to Avoid" Her mother is even worse. Who the heck brings up religion the second you meet someone? And what makes either of them the authority on Christianity? Oh yeah there's that superiority that is unholy! And if "being a good Christian" is being a nasty spiteful dried up old prune like that woman? SHUDDER I also find it hilarious that Elise talks about being married to her "soulmate" yet clearly Tim TOLERATES her Christianity. It's so obvious when he says things like my wife is Christian. My wife likes to go to church. Yet another sign Elise is delusional. 😂
Tim is NOT a lazy father, he is manipulated and emotionally abused. He shuts down and says he just lets her “do her thing.” Poor guy was uncomfortable but after he got past his fear it was SO natural. He is capable and crippled by his wife. Even her friends were letting loose and drinking a glass of wine. Her and grandma are like tyrants lmao
I’d have to tell off gramma. Because the way she was acting just wasn’t ok. It appears her opinion and beliefs were the only things that mattered. Alyse is a thief of joy. She’s so busy focusing on her religion she totally misses the most important things. Sad for Tim and her children.
We made dinner for you!!! Mom: oh I'm not hungry Wtf! Sit down and pretend you are like a real mom would do when your kids cooked you a thoughtful welcome home dinner. SMH
the dad with the piercings is really touching, I feel like he is really an amazing father, his wife is sweet too, they were just an overall wonderful family, I also love how the dad took his son's feelings seriously because for a little boy having his mom gone and then a strange woman comes to there house, it can be scary, but the dad handled it well by listening and talking and allowing his son to cry it out instead of dealing with it alone. the Christian family, well for the dad and kids they were just sweethearts, I wish the dad was more involved because he is the father and the kids need him, it relieved me when he told the wife to stop at the end when she kept whining to her kids, they are kids, she can have that discussion with her husband behind doors, it did warm my heart when I saw the dad and kids interacting and smiling, and the dad just having that pure laughter while doing so. The Christian mom, oml it was wild, in the beginning, I was just feeling so sorry for her kids cause i think it wrong to force religion on a kid like u can talk about it, however, to make them go to church and do bible meetings to where its beatin into there brain is just wrong, but then she got to the other family and she had a whole personality switch, she was judgy but she stayed nice and respectful, and even stayed gentle when it came to the little boy being uncertain of her (despite how in the beginning she was harsh to her daughter's feelings.) I thought that she had eye-opening feelings and was changing, then she got back home and started acting really cold and mean again and taking it out on the kids and her husband, she also seemed mad and jealous that the women noticed the other side of her husband and also seemed mad that the money was used for the family to spend more time together and just, why is that a bad thing? to have fun with your family? isn't family important in the bible? I'm just appalled by her behavior because her family needs more love, and for women who is suppose to be like that, she is the opposite, I really hope she has a change of heart, that or her husband takes the family and leave because her kids gonna suffer.
She seemed so miserable. It's not really her fault. Those ministers (some of them, anyway) push so much fear and threats of hell on good folk! It's done lots of harm to a lot of people. Imagine being told that you are headed for hell for half your life! All the joy would drop out of you. Jealousy is born out of insecurity, and low self-esteem, and I don't think anyone enjoys being jealous. It's so negative and destructive. We can so easily fall into becoming negative, and sometimes it only takes a little act of kindness to lift us up out of it, a small compliment even, a word, a flower, a smile.
barbara was my elementary art teacher and we’re still in contact today (im going into college). for anyone wondering the girones are really that amazing. she was a support system for me during my parents divorce. she invited me to roller skate and do yoga with her and her friends and family because she knew i loved that stuff. and i met tim once and he is literally the COOLEST. she changed and saved my life. i absolutely love her and her family.
I'm happy to hear they really are that sweet and open minded VERY cool!!
Barbara and her husband behave in a more charitable and loving way than the condescending Christian, dictating to others how they should live,while neglecting her own family's needs, whose husband and children looked like they'd forgotten to live. Her behaviour is abusive. Sad
She seems great. I’m glad you had that support in your life!
Madeline McBride Thanks for sharing!
She and her husband are totally amazing people and Vincenzo seems like a sweet kid! I would totally love to hang out with them!!!
I love the tattooed dad allowing his son to cry and even letting him see him cry. They're parenting style is going to end up better in the long term teaching him to do something just because it's the good and kind thing to do.
Yes! I don't know anything about parenting, but i wish my parents had the ability to ease up and let their emotions show like that! When Vincenso finally accepted Alyse, it was because he chose to do so, not because he had to, and that must have been a HUGE learning lesson for him. That scene really touched me
Ahhh. No way! Their parenting style of being best buddies instead of parents is damaging.
Maybe the show didn’t show their resolve though.
I thought the same. Showing him that it's ok to be vulnerable and aware of your emotions, especially as a male was so beautiful.
@Chè McFarland You can be friendly with your child but not their friend and that boundary should be clear. Its great to encourage your child to be a freethinker but a child needs to learn about rules and behavior's to be able to cope in school and in society with their parents guidance
I thought their boy was spoiled and rude. His parents are not his parents they're his friend. Teaching your kid to never listen when you ask them to do something is not going to work well for them as he gets older.
It broke my heart when Moya said "When I found out he had a new wife I was excited, I could feel like I'm a part of the family."
melted my heart when dad and his daughter connected....over making hamburgers.... he is a good man his daughters just need him more active in their life
I guess it was because they were doing something together without a Certain Person being hostile and critical. It could also be because a Certain Someone wasn't around to be a negative dictator/ dictatress. They must be chopping up some pretty strong onions as I have tears in my eyes!!!
Hes about as bright as a brown crayon tho
@@jkarns2285 probably was brighter when he first met her but after years of put downs he changed probably cos she is such a dictatorship he probably pulled away to himself for the sake of peace
@@gassbaggerwoods5955 That's exactly what it is. She has destroyed his esteem. It's abuse and saying he's as bright as a brown crayon must never have been beaten down mentally and emotionally by a controlling mean mouthed person.
Seems like her mom would put a stop to that. She wants to act so excepting, reality she only excepts to people that agree with her. She's the most horrible closed minded control freak I've ever seen. I'm sure she has a different God than any Christian I've ever seen.
I find it interesting that Alyce expects a child to have the grace and open-mindedness to accept her different views when she and her mother treat everybody who doesn't follow their beliefs 100% like crap.
Jacqueline McGarvie ikr plus they r beautiful inside and out the girones
Best comment ever?!!
Yes the grandma shouldn’t act so judgmental. Most Christians are NOT like that!
@@amberrose1108 They're the sort of people to put others off Christianity. In Joyce's bible study she came across as non accepting, judgmental and condemning, all the things she probably didn't want to appear and why has Alyce married a non christian if its all so very important to her ? Defies belief. The other couple were much more accepting, kind and respectful to others.
Jacqueline McGarvie a lot of we Christians have a hard time understanding that God wants to change US. Through brokenness and humility. We really need Him. Religion creeps in , Jesus warned strongly about this ...”beware of the leaven of the Pharisees!” A little leave a (puffs up) the whole lump. the hardest thing in the world is being a Christian. EVERYONE stereotypes you. It’s a beginning. Like being born is just a beginning.
I LOVE the father of Vincenzo--he actually told his son to "go ahead and cry" Pretty much just telling him to get his feelings out and to acknowledge their feelings! Damn! Imo, that's one of the best things you can tell your child--that it's ok to acknowledge their feelings! Especially when it comes to boys and crying because society has stigmatized crying for hundreds of years and it's so bad for a child's mental health.
God would never tell anyone to treat another person as horribly as this mother/daughter duo.
She is full of it, she is on Facebook now with a new guy, wearing skimpy, sexy clothes. I never understand these people who are so devout religiously and end up completely turning the other way. It shows their faith wasn't a strong to begin with and they sit up and judge other people.
@@tinastardust7793 Wah !!! really ?!!!! maybe now her husband has had an awakening he has gotton rid of her
I could so see a divorce on the horizon after watching this!
@@tinastardust7793 I looked them up and looks like they're still married...
Tina Stardust she was probably a paid actress because real Christians don’t act like this
At first I didn’t understand alyce, but after seeing her mother it makes perfect sense.
It's kind of strange she didn't rebel against her mother at all and just let herself become a carbon copy. She must be really afraid of hell.
Art classes will be such a waste of time but making your kids sit through hours and hours of sky daddy who NEEDS MONEY is not.
@@LisaGTrueCrimeGuru "sky daddy" lmaooo this comment made my day
@@LisaGTrueCrimeGuru yea she might be afraid of hell but a true believer of Christ is moreso dishonored to hurt Him than to be afraid of anything. Fear is not apart of a person who truly believes. Alyce, is unfortunately not the best representation of a Christian.
And here you are disrespecting my Savior as a result. It's hard to understand when you don't know. But things will be harder if you never find out.
Like mother like daughter! What mother wouldn't want their children to take art classes if it made them happy?
“Mama we made you dinner!”
“Well I’m not hungry.”
Absolutely heartbreaking
the girls faces dropped they were so disappointed
Complete bitch
My heart broke for her family. Why couldn't she just open her eyes for once?
A total sociopath
@@ENIGMA-tangerino555 Very disheartening for me and I didn't even cook so I could only imagine the girls thoughts& feelings... They just knew mama was gonna be proud and praise them.
I think Tim wants a divorce... actually you can see it in his eyes. They have ZERO connection to each other, and if there was ever a connection, it is gone.
Enable FRANCE he literally said “the main reason her and I are still together is because we don’t believe in divorce” I’m paraphrasing but it’s in the beginning when they’re introducing the couple.. if that doesn’t scream I want a divorce idk what does
She wants to be the woman and man in the relationship... how is that suppose to work??
She probably controls the sex too
just found them on social media and it looks like did get divorced...
@@furrycat2825 i think so too
The end of this episode is hard to watch. Alyce was so rude after Tim and the girls worked so hard to cook dinner for her. The end shot with her bouquet of flowers lying on the counter was just too sad. Also, I can’t believe she freaked out about alcohol in her home. Didn’t Jesus turn water into wine?!
Kaysee Coward :(
I so agree with you!!! sad to see!
Barb should've allocated some of that money for marriage counseling. Lord knows they needed it. I honestly would not be surprised in the least if they aren't divorced by now- that was definitely the direction they were headed
Kaysee Coward They may be actually based on their Instagram. There’s a new little baby brother and I think it’s Tims with another woman.
P Litty you’re right, I just looked and there are no pictures of Tim and Alyce together nor does Alyce have any pictures of the baby brother so I’m guessing they are divorced
It was so good to see Tim stand up to his wife at the end. She was such an ungrateful soul
Is it just me or does it seem like Tim with the 3 kids is wishing this wife swap was permanent right at the end ? She actually showed him he needs to be more involved with the family. And the other Tim, omg. It was amazing how much he really wanted his child to accept the new mommy and look at the fact that she is in an awkward spot: this episode was very touching overall.
Not just you 😂😂
Lol he LAys awake at night asking god of
They can do wife swaps once
A month 💁♀️
Yes he lost it and he is transparent
No it’s just you
Blonde leviathan don’t be disgusting
HE LET'S HIS SON EXPLORE AND SHOW EMOTION?
Props to this excellent father.
Can you see how happy Tim got when his wife was reading all the things that barb said in her note that included him. He felt so appreciated and looked liked he got quite excited
yes! he felt seen.
Felt like he mattered! But his wife doesn’t like to show him any love or appreciation to him and his mother.
@@Laura-v6w5xwhen Joyce walked in the house it was like cruella devil bahaha
Poor Tim :( before he seemed so brainwashed and when the new mum came it was like he remembered who he was again! I hope him and his daughters find happiness!
His wife was sooo jealous of how the other mom talked about him in the letter
AND HIS MOTHER NEEDS TO BE INCLUDED BACK INTO THE FAMILY 💖💯
He had already divorced Alyce and he's remarried to another woman.
hes gotta leave that psycho to be happy.
@@brittany7jeffrey4 And she won't be able to marry anyone else until he dies!
This episode was wild lol for someone who is “blessed by god” she seems so miserable and bitter
True
i felt so for this family , can see who wears the pants
They usually are
and very judgmental
As a true born again Christian, we are told in the bible to go Ye into the world and preach the bible. We are to obey and please GOD. We need to try to be loving , gentle and caring!! We are not perfect and I never claim to be. When we accept JESUS: HE is who saves us. We are far too sinful and cannot save ourselves.
Wow Tim what a fantastic parent he is, like seriously he’s all id ever want in a father for my kids well done sir you & your wife are fantastic parents active & emotionally available this is how it should be done bravo ❤
that dad is amazing with his son!!! and an amazing man in this world... we need more dads and men like him in the world!!!
And the fact that he stood up for The Religious Wife at 1:02.23 when she was being rude to the son. He got so emotional.
good friends rock! amen to that heart warming
I find that he is spoiling that kid. He does not require any respect, life will be hard for this young man
There's plenty
@@Kims_Whims thank you
*WHO ELSE WANTS TO SEE UPDATES AND THEIR FEELINGS AFTER WATCHING THEIR EPISODE BACK??!!*
I bet Alyce is embarrassed of herself lol! Possibly not considering she thinks she's, what everyone else should believe is, "normal"! That woman needs thrown in an environment where she can't control even her own self and she can eventually let loose and learn to relax and not worry about everything!! She needs to pull the stick out her bumper and realize life will still be great and fun even if you make mistakes! The world consists of so many religions and beliefs but that doesn't mean bc someone else believes otherwise, that they're a terrible person and God, or whoever ot whatever you believe in, won't accept and love you! I believe as long as you have faith in yourself to be a good person and do good, and care for others.... your set!!!*

@@jessicarenae5107 Well said Jessica Look at the Mother that raised her. Many people need to feel superior to others to feel power. It happens in politics too judging someone as stupid or less than.

Tamika Orange thank you
barbers girone was my art teacher in elementary school she is the most down to earth person i love this so much!
It really broke my heart that the second she walked through the door she started a fight. She also didn't even give a passing glance to her children and husband making dinner for her.
Very cold. The older children are so detached from their mom...Sad
I think she was raging with jealousy when she got home are meeting the other mum, seeing how beautiful she was and couldn't handle it. I think she is really insecure about herself.
I actually broke down crying over just how sweet Barb and Tim's family are. I've grown up in dysfunctional home so my positive experiences were broken up by the sad ones. Seeing a genuinely caring and supportive, open-minded family is so heartwarming. To most this might sound like cheesy nonsense but it's really comforting to know that there's people out there with so much good to give to the world and the people around them.
Tim family are loving accepting caring people and there son just lovely I wouldn't want god thrown at me either the more you push the more you don't want it as for Alyse not very christian at all her husband was so much happier without her and kids as well her family make her a meal so rude even if you weren't hungry you would sit and eat together as a family reunited shows her true colours hides behind a Bible to be a narcissist

As a Christian it’s honestly humiliating to watch someone as hypocritical as her and her mother claiming to be good christians.
Too little too late frankly. I think the lot of you are mostly trash.
I'm a Christ follower, too, and goodness...every Christian I've seen on this program so far are very unkind, controlling and very unfriendly to the other family and their own. :(
I think they wouldn't want nice Christians on the show, because it would go against the typical Hollywood vs Christians narrative
I’m not a Christian, but I grew up in a very conservative Christian household. I think they specifically choose people who will cause drama or else the show wouldn’t be interesting. I know a lot of Christians who would never act this way, but that doesn’t make good tv. 🤷🏽♀️
@@jiayouchinese I think you're right. I can't imagine a person that is Christian ever going on a show like this because we all know these 'reality' shows are highly edited to portray the people they way the shows creators want them portrayed. And yeah, they don't like Christianity.
To be fair, there are lots of other people they make look horrible too. Gives the viewers a side to cheer for.

@@aqua4497 exactly. She’s an Old Testament Christian
An “Old Testament Christian” would be called a Jew. Judaism was the religion of choice, Christianity wasn’t created until Jesus Christ came... hence the term “Christian” but the origins of the religion is Judaism 🙄
using the Lord's name in vain is not what people think. It's actually using it to get benefits. Such as "give me money and i'll pray for you". you see that a lot with preachers that were on TV during this time.

If the only secret your marriage is working is that you don’t believe in divorce, you need to re-evaluate your values and relationship.
Hey sometimes divorce ain’t a bad thing.
Yes I thought I didn't believe in divorce just as my husband but 18 yrs with him I can't wait to get me back even if not all of me that's a start. People who insist on no divorce know they have a problem
Wowwwwww
I think a “no divorce policy” is good for a marriage. For the simple fact that you will not always be happy. Well unless there is actual abuse. It’s up to both parties to put in the effort to be connected.

The Girone family seems like such a sweet and loving family. I felt really bad for Tim from the Hammond family at the end bc he got her flowers and dinner and none of it was appreciated. 😢
@helenjing9363 I bet you his friends and family tried to help him to open his eyes to what he was getting himself into but I guess he just couldnt see it. What type of a person rejects a welcome dinner and flowers from hea very eager family? My heart goes out to Tims mom who can only stand on the son and watch her son and grandkids being twisted by one family member,
Was curious to see how the Hammond family is now, so decided to look them up on social media (I know that's slightly creepy but was super curious) and here is what I found: Alyce and Tim got divorced and Tim remarried. The girls grew up to be absolutely stunning (honestly look like models)!! And the family seems to be a lot more open-minded - girls have tattoos and one was on Wild N' Out. Also Alyce glowed up a lot too!! Looks so gorgeous right now (she was already beautiful in this video). crazy how much things changed for them! Hope all is well for both families.

Many people question Agnostics because they don’t really understand what we believe in. Tim and Barb are a beautiful example of what we’re about and our belief system. We accept everyone and love everyone regardless of their beliefs or anything else! I wish there were more parents in the world like them. Alyce is also the perfect example of why I walked away from Christianity 14 years ago. Great episode!

Exactly! And I loved how absolutely NO ONE at that party (other than the grandma) was upset about the alcohol and in fact had what I assume is a MUCH better time than they usually have at a party at that house, lol! I feel like Alyse ghosted them all after she watched the show because she actually thought that just because they don't drink around her that they never drink. Ugh, she and the grandma are so out of touch; you'd think the friends had all been smoking crack in the house, they way they were both going on about it!
Oh well of course thats why she is mad ...she brings a black cloud wereverer she goes

Why didn't Tim say Jesus drank wine. Mind you I agree with her that alcohol does a lot of damage in society.
Alyce is a mean, narrowminded, angry woman who needs to be alone to count her blessings. She is sooooo ungrateful.

Ntonhle Shamah SHES very strong . Do you think “maybe” it’s not easy for her to be married to a white man? To “sence hate” from BOTH SIDES? MAYBE that’s what you are picking up and interpret as self hatred. And n”MAYYYBE” she doesn’t WANT to be associated with the negitive things that she sees in her own people? Not saying that’s righteous but totally understandable. Just like I don’t like being called a Christian. It means “Christlike” and I’m NOT always acting like the Stereotype of what others want to paint me.
It infuriatesme when people force their religion on someone who doesn't WANT religion. Religion is based of what YOU believe. They won't believe it & you can't change that. Keep your religion to yourself. Religion is a personal belief. If she was forced into believing some religion & converting to it, she'd be pissed. So why it to them.

I’ve been binging these episodes the last few days. I’m grateful that someone has taken the time to upload the episodes, because I miss this show. But how many of these episodes finish with one spouse almost dreading the other’s return. In like 4 episodes, you can see that the husbands finally realize what a mistake they’ve made. It’s quite sad, to be honest! Some of these wives are truly demeaning to their husbands, and they find zero fault with that. 🤷🏼♀️
I have been binge watching these as well Jodi ! Have you seen the Zandi/Fraiser episode? I loved that one !

It's one of the ten commandments isn't it? Thou shalt not take my name in vain...I think?

@@mandigurl2341 Her behavior overall was blatantly hypocritical. All their talk of Jesus dying on the cross (in the Christian faith it represents the ultimate sacrifice of love), and their method of "witnessing" was to show no love, tolerance or even a sliver of compassion.

She didn't even feel like part of her family because Alease was so controlling & judgemental. Religion shouldn't tear family apart. I hope things got better for these families.
Religion usually tears people apart or forces them together. Religion is for people who are scared and controlled.
Religion shouldn’t be the driving force in a family at all. And I honestly feel that Alyce is a self absorbed, angry, judge mental, bible thumping snob who doesn’t accept anyone else’s beliefs but her own. The other mother is very accepting and all out nice person.
Tattoo Dad has an incredible amount of empathy ♡ love to see it
i need a man like that
This is the second swap I've seen with a very religious person. Why do they get so SCARED when presented with things that aren't completely, extremely Christian? It's very bizarre to me.
I can't imagine their entire life is just living in a Christ bubble, but that's the way they act.

As a fellow Christian, I did not care for Alyce at all. She said Vincenzo was not nice to her, but she wasn't nice to him. I would have shut her out, too. You can't go into someone's home and berate them for not believing like you do and then expect them to accept you. This was years and years ago, so hopefully she changed and saw how awful her attitude was as well as her mother's. Nobody wants to be around people like that. And then, she sits there and wrinkles her nose at almost everything she was given in the letter. What happened to being grateful? I liked the other family better. They seemed happier, honestly.
So sad how Tim seems so unhappy and his mother is shunned from the family that way. He’s probably on the computer talking to other woman and hopefully he leaves that cult loving nasty woman!
They are divorced by the mom’s Facebook account- she’s with another man in her profile
@@lorabetht9206 white or blac. I smelled self hating from her?? 😑😑...
Omg. These commercials bring back so many memories!
But why are there so many? Like in Europe you don't get them this often
This really shows that calling yourself a Christian doesn't make you a good person. Barbara was so open minded and accepting. Alysa was so terrible. I hope her husband grows a pair and finds someone that actually loves and appreciates him.
The bald head Tim and Alysa got a divorce,and he remarried
Calling yourself a Christian doesn't make you one either regardless of church attendance. Sometimes it just shows you up as hypocritical
Would love to see these shows include a 6-month follow up and/or reunion with the families.
I like the idea of 6 mo fu
It's bad when your husband is scared to speak up... Just saying
Must be thinking of bald Tim
No i agree she has stifled him so much that he feels he doesnt have a voice she hasn't validated him
Probably why he married a dictator because he could never stand up for himself. A snail of a guy...no backbone. Where can I find one
@@Kims_Whims 😂😂😂
@@Kims_Whims When one stands up to people like her, there is such an explosion from them, it's so ugly that eventually it's easier to avoid the repercussions of standing up to them. Voice of experience here...but eventually I did stand up.... He will too
Alyce actually seemed like she had the potential to be a nice, sweet person. All of the negative parts of her personality definitely came from being brainwashed by her mother.
Alyce is controlling and motionless..she didn’t hug her hubby or eat the dinner..she couldn’t wait to get things back in order as she stated..I think she was jealous of the new relationships..happy reunion with tears in my eyes..
and her mother is an old hag!
She's mean to her husband and girl's Tim deserves a better wife.
@@jacintaperdue1720 they did get divorced and he remarried
Alyce is so uptight, it makes me so sad for her husband and girls.
I liked the Girone family. I was impressed with the way Tim Girone encouraged his son to listen to someone with different views than his own. I thought a lesson here for Alyce was: get to know them first and be a real friend before trying to evangelize. Once she scrap-booked with Vincenzo, he was willing to listen to her.
I also think Alyce has been very unfairly dumped on in the comments. I didn't see her do anything awful. I myself have backed away from evangelicals who put THEIR faith front and center and demand I believe as they do at first meeting. I am Christian but I'm not good enough until I'm THEIR KIND of Christian. I get it. I get why Barb and Tim didn't immediately change their minds. Alyce and her mother need to LOVE FIRST.
But I also understand that Alyce says these things because she genuinely believes that these people she's coming to care for are going to end up in a bad place for all eternity and she genuinely cares about this and about them. I had a friend who was a Jehovah's Witness and was always on me that I had to become JW. In the end, it killed our friendship. I believe my faith has me on the right path and I pray and believe God has mercy if not.
BUT THE KEY IS: I have always believed my friend cared about my eternity. Yes, I think she's wrong. But her heart is in the right place and I would never say the hateful, awful things about her that are being said here about Alyce. She DOES CARE for these people. And she was very gracious in stepping into a world very foreign to her and reaching out to these people in the way she knew how.
It makes me sad to see how many are wishing her husband has dumped her. She may not be perfect...but none of us are. And we should remember that in the comments we make. Most of us are doing the best we know how to do for our spouses and children and I saw a woman who was confronted with a world very different than her own and chose to love these people in the way she knew how and came home weary and confused and not hungry, yet apparently sat down at the table with her family to talk
Let us all remember that these reality shows are not 100% real. They pick a narrative. They edit and splice. My son was there when a reality show was made ('reality') and saw how much the 'reality' show was directed and pushed toward narratives. Be careful what you believe.
Yes, these shows are so fake! Scripted and highly edited. I've seen where people that have been on or worked on reality shows have said they even cut reactions and paste them into other parts of the video. So when someone looks disgusted or angry, or says something snippy, a lot of the time the show has taken that and pasted it in to make it look like the person was reacting that way to something somebody said or did. or reacting to something about the house or the decor or something.
Alyce is being treated very unfairly in the comments. She went along with trying a yoga session that went a direction she had not expected and I think she kind of regretted it. But she was open to trying the things that were important to the family she was visiting. And she did not push the devotional reading on the little boy when he didn't want to do it. They did not even visit a church like she had wanted to.
The other lady took alcohol into an alcohol free home with the kids there and didn't seem to have asked the kids how they would feel about that.
Well he did "dump" her and seems happier than he's been in years. You can tell he's miserable and she treated him horribly when she got home.
the smile on Tims face when she read a boat and a pool just made my day but it made me sad that she was so rude about every single thing she put down
A man doing yoga is not a man doing “rituals” woman
@McKenna Bowers ~ maybe I'm wrong but i think when she heard them I think she thought it was some kind of gay thing 😂 when she saw it was yoga she still had to hate
Yeah, I don't get why she didn't just say "I'm uncomfortable, I'd like to stop now" when she decided the yoga was too much for her. She's a grown ass woman and she certainly wasn't shy about condemning "unholy" things the rest of the show! If she really thought he was performing "rituals" on her or whatever, I'd think she's be out of there in a flash, not just letting a man who's not her husband keep touching her, if she didn't think that was appropriate.
Yoga began as Hindu god worship.
You are so beautiful.
That guy with the beard had a CREEPY smile I will say that.
YASSSS!!! We had the punk family, now I get my Metalhead Mama!!! I forgot about this episode and how hypocritical she was as far as not judging others, but Dad was very upset that his kid was not being open-minded. What's funny is that I'm a proud and serious Christian, as well as a HUGE metalhead! I simply cannot wait to have my own husband, and children to raise with the best of both worlds!
Alyce and her daughters are all stunning!!! Just need to smile a little more x
P. S The tattoo family's House is so magical, seems to be in the middle of a rainforest?

wow, my heart breaks for Tim (Hammond) what a sweet guy. I hope you've found happiness with your daughters and are able to be yourself ❤️
He did he got remarried
My heart goes out to poor Tim, the poor guy’s been totally emasculated. Alyce is a total control freak! To think that he feels obligated to stay married to her is just heart breaking.
The other family was so much happier, although I think it’s O.K. to ask Vincenzo to help out a bit more, not just “do you want to help me do xyz”…. Nobody wants to do housework, but chipping in and helping out is also part of being a supportive and cohesive family…
Damn the family cooked dinner for her , and she is saying "I'm not hungry "...damn
That was honestly cruel. I don’t care if you’ve recently stuffed down a three-course meal, just PRETEND and be bloody grateful. She had no regard for their feelings and effort whatsoever 😠
4 mins in .... OH this is going to be a good one
RRRIIGGHHTTTTT
Other cultures: **exist**
Alyce: "And I didn't like that at all."
Those church people sure were enjoying that wine though.🤔😁
Excatly. You can dislike drinking and not do it. But nowhere in the Bible does it say its wromg.
Yep🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Drinking wine isn’t wrong it’s drinking to get drunk that is wrong
As a Christian, I reject them. How rude were they. I hope tim found the courage to leave.
Aaliyah Valentino 👍👍👍❤️
Aaliyah Valentino I am not Christian but I always thought Christianity said god was supposed to love everyone and that we should to and wanted us to be kind to everyone so I never get it when I seen Christians like this on tv I am always there like well aren’t you doing something just as bad by treating someone badly for something that’s not hurting anyone even if you don’t support gays or tattoos it’s not like it’s gonna affect you so bc nice it’s not like they killed someone but is I feel like they are in a different kinda church
On her Facebook she has 2 pictures public and she's with a different guy now.
On Tim's IG he has a son now.
I hope he takes the girls with him

Alyce Laws-Hammond ... Just checked it and she has wiped most of the stuff off that was "public" before...
Alyce is now divorced and living with her momma. Tim shares joint custody and is remarried and happy.
Alyce is remarried also.
Also Alyce is freaked out about yoga and thinks it's unGodly 😂😂😂 mm-k alyce ya muppet!
Her asking the husband about his beliefs and then telling him he's wrong....cringey. He should have called her out for being a hypocrite.
It is unbiblical.
Many poses are in honor of Hindu gods.
@Trainurmind 2C ~ So let me ask you...how many ppl that practice yoga (and I'm not talking devoted Yogis I'm talking say a suburban mom) do you think even know that? All it is touted as now is a form of stretching and relaxation. Other than weirdos like Elise how many ppl are going to even associate yoga and religion? Especially when you see it offered on women's church retreats 😂
Elise thinks she has it figured out but she isn't even Christian. She is a brain washed zombie walking around spouting out the garbage that fire and brimstone preacher is selling them. She had no idea what SHE believes because all she knows is what she's been spoon fed prob since birth to believe. She's never had the presence of mind to question anything or examine it. She mindlessly accepts it.
Sorry that's NOT a Christian. These episodes that feature ones like her amaze me. It really makes me wonder how they read their Bible and yet act the way they do. Where in the Bible does it say ANYWHERE to reject anything that is unlike you? From what I knew of the Bible from my years in church Jesus was loving and accepting and even when hurt or insulted he turned the other cheek and showed LOVE and that is what shows ppl that Jesus is the way. I don't remember any Bible verses or parables where Jesus didn't like how someone looked so he treated that person as if they were beneath them as Elise does. THAT is much more unGodly than yoga!!
As the husband said he could call her out for being a hypocrite because shes certainly not practicing love thy neighbor is she? But he chose the high road which seems to be a pattern in the shows. It's not the "Christians" that are accepting and respectful it's the "pagans" while the Christians attack and demean. That is why so many ppl have such an unflattering view of Christianity!! Elise could easily be the spokeswoman for "how Christians SHOULDNT act" or the poster child of "Churches to Avoid"
Her mother is even worse. Who the heck brings up religion the second you meet someone? And what makes either of them the authority on Christianity? Oh yeah there's that superiority that is unholy! And if "being a good Christian" is being a nasty spiteful dried up old prune like that woman? SHUDDER
I also find it hilarious that Elise talks about being married to her "soulmate" yet clearly Tim TOLERATES her Christianity. It's so obvious when he says things like my wife is Christian. My wife likes to go to church. Yet another sign Elise is delusional. 😂
@@alishashadows9599 Moving your body is unbiblical? That's probably the *stupidest* thing I've heard all day today.
Tim is NOT a lazy father, he is manipulated and emotionally abused. He shuts down and says he just lets her “do her thing.” Poor guy was uncomfortable but after he got past his fear it was SO natural. He is capable and crippled by his wife. Even her friends were letting loose and drinking a glass of wine. Her and grandma are like tyrants lmao
Alyce with the “Karen” haircut is so fitting lol
🤣🤣
What's a karen haircut?
“As long as she’s open minded” hahaha good luck man😊
I’d have to tell off gramma. Because the way she was acting just wasn’t ok. It appears her opinion and beliefs were the only things that mattered. Alyse is a thief of joy. She’s so busy focusing on her religion she totally misses the most important things. Sad for Tim and her children.
When they has the party and the girl went "oh no grandma is coming" 😭😂😂😂
We made dinner for you!!!
Mom: oh I'm not hungry
Wtf! Sit down and pretend you are like a real mom would do when your kids cooked you a thoughtful welcome home dinner. SMH
Wow, Barbara fit better into the Hammond family better than Alyce
everyone fit better
@@janitamantel5333 so true
I was about to thumbs this up and then I realized it was my own comment lmaooo, I need to stop rewatching this episode so much
the dad with the piercings is really touching, I feel like he is really an amazing father, his wife is sweet too, they were just an overall wonderful family, I also love how the dad took his son's feelings seriously because for a little boy having his mom gone and then a strange woman comes to there house, it can be scary, but the dad handled it well by listening and talking and allowing his son to cry it out instead of dealing with it alone. the Christian family, well for the dad and kids they were just sweethearts, I wish the dad was more involved because he is the father and the kids need him, it relieved me when he told the wife to stop at the end when she kept whining to her kids, they are kids, she can have that discussion with her husband behind doors, it did warm my heart when I saw the dad and kids interacting and smiling, and the dad just having that pure laughter while doing so. The Christian mom, oml it was wild, in the beginning, I was just feeling so sorry for her kids cause i think it wrong to force religion on a kid like u can talk about it, however, to make them go to church and do bible meetings to where its beatin into there brain is just wrong, but then she got to the other family and she had a whole personality switch, she was judgy but she stayed nice and respectful, and even stayed gentle when it came to the little boy being uncertain of her (despite how in the beginning she was harsh to her daughter's feelings.) I thought that she had eye-opening feelings and was changing, then she got back home and started acting really cold and mean again and taking it out on the kids and her husband, she also seemed mad and jealous that the women noticed the other side of her husband and also seemed mad that the money was used for the family to spend more time together and just, why is that a bad thing? to have fun with your family? isn't family important in the bible? I'm just appalled by her behavior because her family needs more love, and for women who is suppose to be like that, she is the opposite, I really hope she has a change of heart, that or her husband takes the family and leave because her kids gonna suffer.
She seemed so miserable. It's not really her fault. Those ministers (some of them, anyway) push so much fear and threats of hell on good folk! It's done lots of harm to a lot of people. Imagine being told that you are headed for hell for half your life! All the joy would drop out of you. Jealousy is born out of insecurity, and low self-esteem, and I don't think anyone enjoys being jealous. It's so negative and destructive. We can so easily fall into becoming negative, and sometimes it only takes a little act of kindness to lift us up out of it, a small compliment even, a word, a flower, a smile.
For a Christian, Alyce is pretty judgemental 😒 if she only knew how to approach someone lovingly...
She's such a character her and her mother...like KAREN'S that's all I could see.
Or don’t approach them at all💀
Christians are judgemental
