Mrs Robinson said she raised adults not children, this simple statement is incredibly profound and one which all parents could learn lessons from. What an amazing woman. ❤
I want more from Mrs. Robinson 😮 👍🏼
Are you this dense?
Michelle’s mother speaks with so much grace and gentleness. She’s so wise. I can listen to her all day!
I agree!
She must be a teacher. She just has that thing.
i see a little sadness in Michelle's eyes but... it's complicated... i don't think her mum is 'all that' wise... again complicated... she did the absolute best with what she had and in some ways it worked... And again complicated. Part of her mum's wisdom is in knowing that she isn't the blueprint for everyone, no one is. But a hodge-podge of tools is enough for me.
@@angelicaterry3367 Beloved that’s your opinion. She did an amazing job with developing two responsible adults.
@@lamontjackson2939 stow your condescension and perhaps widen your frame of reference to admit nuance...
I didn't grow up with a good circle of women and as an adult have struggled to feel safe enough to be more than surface friends. I always feel wistful watching a group of women in the lirr circle. So beautiful.
It's beautiful to see that kind of trust and respect between women. Sharing and caring, sincerely.
It’s never too late to find a friend or group of friends
@@irmamontoya8473 you are right! it's not easy though. I hope I find a solid set of good friends.
🫂
"If you have one good friend, you have more than your fair share."
Wow, Michele’s mom gave some awesome advise. I could listen to this conversation for hours.
Ditto for me ☺️
I loved how she said she was raising adults, not children.
Yes, I wish it was longer.
Thank you so much for making me feel welcome to your table and included in this conversation. You have all inspired me today. I do not have very many friends in the area I live in and now I realize there are women who share the same ideas I sometimes think about. Thank you all so very much...sending love.
Ditto for me 😊
Thanks for i must really try myself and time interest a conversation, on your club so as your kitchen....thanks
Need a solo interview with her mom..she a 💎
I was thinking the same.
I just said the same thing! Her mom needs to write a book!!!
I salute these Black women who millions in the Black community admire. They have gotten to give back to the communities in more ways than one. Such an inspiration to women all over the world!❤💯
I don't see colour here I just see some great amazing women chatting about life,
@@Daniel-mn4jq Thank you, Daniel! Happy Holidays!
@Sputnick Spooner As a matter of fact, they were a group of Black women. I've always admired Black women , beginning with my own mother. So, let's not put a spin on what was written. There was no intention of excluding anyone - just pointing out a real fact. Period. Enjoy your day, sir!
Michelle Obama’s mom…just wow! Love her. Most dysfunction begins in childhood, mostly with the parents’ own dysfunction. When parents are like Michelle Obama’s mother, you get a well-balanced, confident, and humble adult. Her mother is a model for all mothers. 🌹🌹🌹🙏
I wish Mrs Robinson would write a book. The tittle should be, ‘Once You Decide You Don’t Have To Know Everything, Then You Can Relax’.
I so agree with you!
Wow, Mrs. Robinson validates everything I told my kids. Thank you! I was feeling a little guilty thinking it was too harsh from a mother. Now, it sounds quite right to say "I don't know" sometimes, and "It's your education. I have already graduated." I can even hear my voice saying that as I type. Sending love to all of you ladies. I can't wait to read Mrs. Obama's new book. I wish I had a group like that. However, I do not take for granted the few people I know even if they are not as close to me as your friends are to you. ❤❤💘💘❤❤
No wonder Michelle is such a fabulous woman! Her mother is fabulous too !!!
Michelle's mother is so charming and lovely. Like Mother, like daughter. Thank you for letting us in.
Hello Mary, Apologies for dropping this here but I love your Facebook posts and comments, I have tried to add you as a friend quite a few times, but it's not going through. Do you mind trying from your side? I would be delighted if we could be friends. If this sounds odd or embarrassing in any way please don't embarrass me by replying.
I love she calls her mom "lil lady"
Such incredible parenting gems. I grew up with parents that shielded me from their imperfections. I have a young niece now and I told her “ adults don’t always know everything, she laughed at me like “ yea right”. Children really think that there is a switch that goes off when you turn a certain age and you will know everything and have everything figured out. As a 30 year old woman I’m still trying to unlearn that mindset.
Well said!
Real women don't gossip about things that they can't change.
Real women converse to change things or nothing at all.
True
I loved it when Michelle made comments about Barack leaving socks out....I remember thinking she was the first First Lady who was willing to get real.
A truly Great First Lady with class!!
You rock Michelle! ❤️
And her mama is pretty cool too!
@@l.w.4701She sure is! Love our Moms! 🌹❤️
So True!!! It is nice to have friends to vent to that way you can get it off of your chest and go home with a fresh outlook or just a free mind because you were able to get it out to your friends! GO MICHELLE! WE LOVE YOU!
"I'm raising adults, not children." Brilliant.
Glad to see a group of smart women supporting each other
Thank you for saying smart woman instead of black woman.
Loving this series, admittedly, always have been a huge fan of the Obama's but I have never heard Mrs. Robinson talk much before. I adore her no nonsense approach to raising children.
Michelle was raised by a wise woman ❤️
She was raised by her mom and her dad.
@@g.o.a.t9804 of course!
That's why Michelle is so balanced, and decent.
Mama Robinson out here with the wisdom ❤
All of these elegant, beautiful, classy queens!!!!!!!
I know how it feels and how important it is to have a group of people who are more than friends. They are your confidants, sounding boards, and someone you can vent to. I consider myself very blessed to have my own small group who would support me and also give me a good talking to when I'm wrong or thinking of doing something stupid.
My forever First Lady! 🥰🥰🥰
Wow I really appreciate how they keep it real I really relate when she said she had Michelle practice as a child to be an adult I remember going to school meeting with mom, translating for my parents as a child ,registering for school, applying for scholarships, and applying for college by myself. Alot was because my parents English was limited so I handled alot things on my own. But now as an adult it's helped me be independent.
Michelle and Mama!!! Robin and their friends: I needed this right now.
Such a lovely group of women... great advice at the table ❤
If Mrs Robinson ever releases a book, it will be NYT best sellers.
I could listen to Michelle Obama and her mother speak all day...both wise women.
The power of a mother can move the world. Just ask that "little" woman. We thank you beyond measure.
I love Mrs Robinson.The conversation was inspiring.
Something o didn’t know I needed today. Such an amazing conversation. As an adult I’m working on having a circle like this. What’s funny is I love meeting strangers out and about and speaking with them about life.
Spot on Grandma! Guide but tell those kids to figure it out!
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,Deep respect for Mrs. Robinson she certainly race a beautiful human being ,and Michelle Obama she is such a gentle soul but at the same time,so intelligent and kind ,lovely lady !
I love it. ❤️ The toilet paper direction, was the first argument my ex tried to start. I left and went directly to the store and purchased a 2nd tp holder. There's a solution for everything.
OMG... I LOVE Mrs. Obama's MOM! All parents can take a lesson from her.
Love her 💙💙💙 What a great group of smart women!
Wonderful convo with these awesome women!!!
Thank you for sharing this great conversation. I too believed 5:50 I raised adults and treated them as such.
This sounds like a show “the kitchen table” With Michelle Obama ❤️
M7chelle was a hands 9n and ideal First Lady. A graceful role model.for all American young ladies..she never loses her Kool! Check out her posture! She's also a brilliant woman!
This was an excellent interview. The world saw educated black women with dignity, grace, class, and sophistication and not the same outdated tropes the media sell through reality shows and 90% entertainment. If only this could be the norm, but then there will be those that say, black women don't act like that, or that's not representing real black women.
Love this comment!
Excellent Interview Love my First Black President Family♥️🔥💥⭐💯
Obama is half white… don’t forget😂
I had to come here just to hear her voice. Rest in Peace Mrs. Robinson 🕊️🤍 get your eternal rest. Woman full of wisdom I can listen to all day long.
I love Mrs. Robinson she needs to speak more. Please write a book❓
Real women in her circle....or real women in general forever separated her from their superficial reality.
Not only is Michelle a black woman ..she is a real woman in general so ...to showcase it, hopefully will create something for the unauthentic woman.
This will show woman that it's not always about how you look....it's about how you come to the table,
What you brought to the table to consume such a life giving meal.
Thoughts are all in the mouth so therefor elegant gutt health.
Awesome friends... sincere quality...love...etc
Michelle's mama is a friggin gem
So wish Michelle would run for President! She’s all class but loves to have fun, intelligence, grace and beauty! We need to see more shows like this! Really enjoyed it. So nice to see normalcy and not the nut cases from the Trump administration.
Amen!
JESUS saves 🙌
JESUS heals
JESUS forgives
JESUS loves you
JESUS restores brokenness
JESUS is there for those who feel lonely or lost
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤This world is be coming scary hold on to Jesus. WE NEED JESUS back in our homes, school, work place on the street corner please hold on to Jesus and accept him in your life before it's to late❤❤❤❤
🇺🇲🧢🦅 Thank You 44th First Lady Michelle Obama ! Inspiration & strength & class & beauty !!
Thanks for the informative vedios
Simply the Best!! “Little Lady” The Real Deal!
I love listening to Mrs Robinson’s insights and pearls of wisdom..🙏 so valuable👍👍 thank you maam 👏
That is one powerful women. Not everyone can get a one hour spot on Network TV Sunday night to advertise a Book.
I feel so lucky that all I have to complain about is the fact that this video is in 720p. I had to stop for a moment when I realized what I really wanted to tell ABC News about their video quality. Thanks for the excellent content none the less.
Thank you for this video!
Thank you Ms. Robinson❤
Such beautiful, smart women. Down to earth.
Thank you for sharing.
THIS IS GOLD 🪙🥇💖
Love her ❤️
Mrs Michelle is just a down to earth Person. That love people she is a people person.
What a cool mom Mrs. Robinson is!
It must be a privilege to be Michelle friend or even meeting her!
Love Michelle's Mom.
I didn't agree with alot of Obamas policies, however both him and her are just incredibly great people. Nothing but respect for them two.
I wish that they would have shown pictures of the maternity shoots for Michelle. Abc let us down on this one. Good interview over all.
I have a little momma too she's 5' 4" I'm 5' 10"
Me too. My mom's 5.6 I'm 6.0.
Hello Mrs. Former first lady Michelle Obama, sorry about the loss of your mother Marian Robinson. My Deepest condolences.. Although it's hard to believe and accept, it's still beyond co
♥
so true! i used to pray to forget, but i looked more.... and realized... l didn't know! l love it too mama!
If Mrs. Robinson did a spoken word for a few hours I would be front row. Wow!...what a woman.
A beautiful statement your education is your priority with my last child I had to let her know that I will help you if I can but it’s up to you to get the degree that you want My oldest child got her degree and paid it off very proud of her
Where is the rest?
Nice!!!❤️🎉🎉🎉🎉
Gracious ladies.
❤️ ❤️
Love this so much❤
Ohhh love it raising adults not children They played and had fun but learnt about consequences!
i love chicago and as african
american ladies their ideas are deeply
inspiring i like mrs robinson shes very intelligent
In another interview she was talking about the difficulties of marriage and trying to explain to young ppl that it’s hard and takes patience. All good there BUT this here is exactly what we want to hear - Obama leaving his socks out! We have the same issue at home with my husband and it helps me to hear that even so smart and great ppl like the Obamas, who are role models for us (I’m white btw) have the same small daily problems and still make it work, support each other and work on it!
If Mrs. Robinson wrote a book on how she raised Michelle, I would buy it.
Why do I find myself always agreeing with the elders?
That sounds so selfish, but my parents were like that as well. We had to figure out what to do after high school and how to do it. I'm glad the attitude has changed, and more Black parents today are understanding the importance of encouraging your children to pursue their desires and assisting them in whatever way they can.
Encouragement is different from taking ownership. I'm pretty sure both of Mrs. Obama's parents encouraged her and her brother to think about and have a plan for how they would support themselves as adults. Mrs. Robinson raised them with eye to their being responsible adults and part of that was requiring them to own their education - research career options, take the ACT/SAT, apply to schools, etc. If the parent is in the drivers seat for major life decisions the child will have a hard time making decisions on their own. I think it worked out for both of their kids as it did for me.
Michelle Obama is a icon
I appreciate you, Michelle...i like your life,lady.
No matter what.
Beautiful❤
Where's part 2
Amazing. Wonderful. It shows why they were so well liked. She is refreshing.
Helicoptering….that exactly how it was done. They taught us well and I’m now teaching my niece. So glad I caught this at 5:15am…
I thought helicopter parenting is when one is too involved with their child In an unhealthy way?
@@libraScent sadly, it’s to the extreme now. It definitely took a village and we had that in our neighborhoods. They didn’t hover, but they were aware of everything happening with us.
Very awesome 👍
I enjoy watching Good Morning America everyday you guys give people up you guys give people never give up in in your life with your family I am going to continue to watch Good Morning America with GMA 3 maybe Almighty May the God bless all of you with your family
Exchanging peoples Destiny
Where is Angela/Princeton?..
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love the Obamas!!! Her mom was right! We need the answers! Our girls think their dad and I have a solution for every existing question!! LOL!
Her mom is correct on not sharing any parenting advice because certain parenting styles she hold can be very controversial especially in black communities of today’s generation.
Aw, this is fun!
Nice mama
