Teachers had your best interest at heart!! Beautiful lady, you grew up rich!! Merry Christmas to you and everyone in the comments 💕🎁🎄
Merry Christmas Beautiful Sis. Yes the Love is what kept us. We didn’t have a lot but love is special. It made me content and prosper. I remember how my elders and teachers were. I hope children growing up get a glimpse and feeling of how important community is. I always appreciate you Sis! Many blessings Sis and Happy Holidays 💚🎁💝🎄🎄
@@Regina.Michelle Our founding fathers went to war died for freedom cause it was wrong to enslave people for their differences you fast forward to modern civilization we still enslave people we just only enslave evil people, Evil people are people with differences it's just expressing their differences have consequences that just happen to affect someone else, Cause their looking for extra freedom Cause evil is immoral and selfish but evil is freedom So Evil people are just people with extreme differences So instead of creating a Seperate space for this freedom you rather enslave and imprison an entire generation of people of their differences, and you wonder why we have a world war 3 right outside... And before someone say "oh you give them an inch they'll take a mile" Look at history, Look at American history You give them none you give them none at all they'll take the entire thing…
It is the digital market. That's been the secret to this wealth transfer. A lot of folks in the US and abroad are getting so much from it, God has been good to my household Thank you Jesus.
Same here, I believe the Bitcoin ETFs approval will be life changing opportunity for us, with my current portfolio of $108,000 from my investments with my personal financial advisor i totally agree with you
YES!!! that's exactly her name (Mrs Elizabeth Regina Nelsen) so many people have recommended highly about her and I'm just starting with her from Brisbane Australia🇦🇺
Im getting my passport next year. Start travelling over 5 years. I dont want to retire in the US and die here. This country is bad for your mental and physical well being .
Get it. You will feel relieved 😌 to be able to have an outlet. I have my second one and passport card. I refuse to feel stranded on this island of hate
@@CAMICAZE007 *I saw the degradation of the USA coming a long time ago so I left. I didn't want my daughter growing up in the culture of the US. I was also fortunate enough to have a 2nd passport for a small prosperous country where stores are still closed on Sundays for family time and the society is still functional so my move was comfortable and easy. It doesn't matter what economic social class you belong to .America has gone down the drain on all levels and now it's blatantly obvious.*
We just watched The Christmas Story on TV and I agree with you. Teachers cared. Life was so good back then. We had a good education!! So glad we grew up Gen X
I’m so glad I experienced teachers who could teach in freedom. I’m so thankful. Thank you so much for sharing and commenting because it helps. Many blessings to you 💕🙏🏾
@@Markanimation-t2v I also think too many people are just ignorant about the reality for the majority of average Americans. I hear colleagues talk on societal or economic issues with a complete lack of awareness & ignorance. Many of whom are experiencing them themselves. Critical thinking skills as well as media literacy should be mandatory in high school. There are far too many people with way too much money for this country to be commodifying human needs. Lack of upward mobility, affordable housing, nutrition, education or even healthcare makes people grow sour. Combining that with their environment they grew up in is the perfect recipe for hate. Especially for those directly affected by economic pain no politician has ever known. Lest we forget the generation of Boomers who literally just pulled ladders their whole lives after having benefited the most.
I'm 41 years old, and I agree with you with everything you said. I was just talking to my best friend about teachers sleeping with the student. 2020, the world has shifted.
As a white woman who grew up in the wealthy suburbs of Winnetka, Illinois where the home alone house is located at, my sister and I was raised to be respectful to humanity. I remember playing snowball fights with my family, playing baseball with my parents and going to church every Sundays. My hubsand didn't grew up in the neighborhood that I had since he comes from the Southside of Chicago but I love the food that he took me too especially that donut place in his neighborhood. He is working class but I help him got to my level. He is happy because he can work at home. We get mean stares sometimes since we're in a interracial relationship since he's black but we don't care because we love each other. I was his first love and he was my first love. Merry Christmas Ms. Regina.

Last year, I was working full time, budgeting groceries, unable to afford date nights, and missing time with my kids. Now I learned how to make money online. Now am a SAHM, homeschooling, and making profits every week.
Wow that's awesome investing in alternate income streams should be the top priority for everyone right now. especially given the global economic crisis we are currently experiencing. stocks, gold, silver, and virtual currencies are still attractive investments at the moment.
I am physically disabled with excruciating back pain every single day and the only medicine for release I can get makes me so sick I can't eat or drink. I spend today's Christmas in bed alone for the entire day. Last night I was crafting a Christmas present for my niece and taking breaks every 30 minutes to vomit bile. Ended up not finishing it fully because I am too sick to complete it. I am below the poverty line and can't afford to survive. I don't know what to do and I have felt trapped for years. My existence is just to suffer. Living the American Dream! Thanks for the video
@Begouch *I hate to read about your predicament. Did you take the C-19 vaxx? Many, many people are suffering side-effects from the evil put upon the populace. If you haven't tried it yet...try prayer. Pray as if your life depended on it because it does. I hope all becomes better for you.* 🙏🙏🙏
I've had two back surgeries one spinal fusion. Very difficult to do much when your back decides to not move. I'm aware money is tight but I found powdered shilajit the conquerer of mountains took the nerve pain away organic sulfur MSM and raw maca for balance. You only have to get the powder not tar shilajit only once it'll put you in a herx for three days but when you wake up after those three days helped with Lymes too you literally feel like a completely healed person the MSM takes the back pain away without side effects. Raw maca helps with I don't exactly know but it just makes you mentally feel better. Coconut oil 1 tsp every day helps with skin nails good for keeping your sacred vessel clean. You can get it at your local health food store but I don't currently have a vehicle so I get mine from Amazon Prime thank God we have that option with back pain. It's a pain so deep people just don't understand nerve pain unless you've lived it. I couldn't walk for 3 years but after powder shilajit I could finally stand up straight again. If you haven't experienced nerve pain it's so deep literally nothing helps. You want to get up but your back locks up and you can barely move. Been there it's miserable I still have flare-ups but run and start taking MSM before it gets too bad. Hopefully this helps I'm sorry you went thru it too I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I had our son I didn't want my problem to effect him so I found a way to drive him to school every day with fresh staples from back surgery. I'm grateful I did my son runs the backbone of the train industry now that reason we have electricity. The coal trains. I feel exactly what you're talking about. Pills don't help. They gave me morphine literally didn't even touch the nerve pain. I had nerve blocks they were going to install a blocker device but I decided against it seeing too many horror stories.

Tell the truth my sister!! I grew up in Newark.NJ in 1960's.We had a ball even though we did not have much.There was so much love and support.Even though it was during the Civil Rights era.People cared about each...now seems nobody cares about each other.Sad to say our BM (not all) have hit rock bottom.I am 71 yrs old now... I -.this country scares me.
I'm from same generation. There's a million reasons why things have become this way. Part of it started on focus on self. And media, technology, social media. But i truly believe the smart phones were the nail in the coffin!! It's been a gradual process I've been watching. It's truly sad
Yes Society is completely done,it’s absolutely disgusting and Disturbing, it’s because peoples Self Respect is gone,it’s gotten worse over the last 20 years..
I also remember a time where people really did have respect and appreciated one another as kids, teens, adults, and elders whether you were poor or wealthy. But as I was growing up I started to notice how things were starting to shift in my generation as Millennials as well as the Gen Zs in the late 2000s going into the 2010s. People were cautious about who they dated, slept with, given their bodies, people would also leave you alone if you had heart, but now they'll fight, threaten, unalive, or cut you off if you stand up for who you are because you refused to let them cross, play, finesse, mistreat, or disrespect you. It'll never be the same.
I met a man a couple of months ago on line.We were talking about a week...and saying graphic disrespectful things over the phone.I told him I dont tolerate disrespect.He got an attitude and stop calling me...didn't apologize. I was glad.

Hi Miss Regina, I’m a 69 year old male and I agree totally with everything you said in this video. You are so right, much has changed in our society since we were kids, and it’s not looking good for our future generations.
The break down of the family unit/ structure is the downfall of America. The product we put out is terrible nowadays. Unless we bring back the Family structure it won’t get any better.
@Lowie522 *One of the key reasons why the family structure is ruined is when they stared promoting same-s*x relationships as "normal and healthy." It opened a Pandora's box for every and anything degenerate to be accepted. They promoted it into the mainstream and protected it by man-made laws which spiritually disturbed the core of society. This is what happens to societies when people listen to man and not God.*
It's all by design and women accelerated the down fall!! I actually don't mind how bad America has become literally all the money I make is invested in my business to then move out of America
I grew up poor also in Harlem NYC in the 1960 and 1970 but our community love itself and each other. I didnt even know i was poor. But sadly enough them days are over. From here on it all down here. The descent into hell itself.
There's an old saying "The fish rots from the head first." or "As above, so below." So look at power centers both political and economical and see what they care about. Not much.
2 Timothy 3:1-4 KJVS [1] This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. [2] For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, [3] Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, [4] Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
I observed a change yesterday while last minute Christmas shopping at Family Dollar, Walgreens and my local supermarket. For many years I have done this and it's about the only time I set foot into the makeup/perfume area. In past years they had perfume and soap gift sets, all of this is gone and has been replaced with more makeup. What it told me was that it is much more important for a woman to look good, mainly in front of a smartphone for selfies, then it is to smell good around real people. We are definitely losing so much in our community's.
Hi Regina, yes I agree, you were rich! I grew up quite similar. I am in your age group, a social worker like yourself. Grew up in church, people helping people, playing the outdoor games ect.. It saddens me greatly to see how things are now. I raised my children with old fashioned values and it is serving them well.
I appreciate you so much. The older traditional values are very important when it comes to raising our children. A lot of children are being parented by social media. I hope you have a blessed day 💕
You just brought back so many childhood memories especially the games we used to play. I enjoy you reminiscing of so many events common in our community. I didn’t realize how much I missed those days and I am currently making some serious decisions about how to go forth in America.
Yessss I feel this. I remember playing outside by the street light and now everything is social media and what can go viral 🙄 Hope you had a wonderful Christmas!!
My sister, I can somewhat relate to what you are saying. However, if you look back, you will notice that even the time you are reminiscent of was looked down upon by the older generation of that time. The older generation also reminisces about their earlier years when things were different and much better. Knowing this, we should instead try to find ways to adapt to the new generation and how people relate to each other. This is the only way, the nostalgia of the past is not the solution. Can we still teach goodness, morality, faith, and courage in this new generation, absolutely?
At age 81, I grew up in a middle class family, with loving parents and grand parents...I had three buddies, we were like brothers...skating, biking Saturday matinees at the neighborhood "movie palace"! You are so right...I have very little connection with current trends...gone-gone-gone! The dating scene...forget it! My dad was a hard working fellow...he could fix anything...tought me many things in fixing around the home. Cars were easy to work on...not the computers on wheels of today. Mom was a wonderful homemaker! So glad I grew up in that period of the late 1940s-mid 60s! Thanks for your thoughts, and have a Blessed Holiday Season...your tree looks neat in the backround!
It is even worse than you think. There is a movement in this country that hates the very idea of morality or normalcy, and they consider these things "oppression".
That's why we yearned for the 50s, 60s, and 70s. I remember in my town, everybody was outside. You could hear music from the next store and smell your mom's cooking. I tell you, when my dad came home from work, you could smell the work on him. He instilled a work ethic in me. And like you, I am afraid for America. Our society has/ is turning into a scam society.
That is a fact things have changed. It's definitely not the same America as when I was a child. Couples don't stay together and there is no such thing as just trust and loyalty
WE AS GEN X. Have TO BRING THAT BACK. OUR PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS ARE GONE AND THEY LEFT US THE BLUE PRINT...ITS UP TO US. WE CANT CRY ABOUT IT..WE GROWN ..😌
Merry Christmas. Im glad to hear you speak on this. I've been having these same thoughts as well. Life is nothing like it use to been. When did it all change. I had to work today on Christmas I can remember a time when the streets were practically empty on Christmas . I work in the field and I couldn't believe how much traffic there was today. I scary now of days Thank you for speaking about whats going on. And your right we can do something about it
You are right. People are not in the holiday spirit and Christmas is not the same anymore. The world is rapidly changing . I appreciate you for sharing . Happy Holidays 💚
Feeling sorry for yourself will bring nothing but despair upon you . I grew up poor but cause of my choices and not given up became wealthy and never forgot where I came from. Church was 3 times a week it is first in my life before anything My grandparents told us we didn't look out the window we look through the spaces in boards on the house and saw who it was. They slept by the fireplace in the winter for it was only heat in the house. I am white and we have some folks in our family that are of color and they have made us a greater family.
I appreciate you. It’s good that you can relate. A lot of people in my generation know what im talking about. A lot in other generations will never understand. Many blessings to you. 🙏🏾💚
Don't be afraid. Change is inevitable. Sometimes, it's unpleasant, but nothing lasts forever. The only way to make progress is through change. Learn to embrace it rather than fear it. Societies fall, paradigms shift, and something better will rise up in its place. All we can do is embrace the short time we have on this earth and try to roll with it.
Agree about the job/wage greed issue. One of my first jobs in 1991 was a receptionist I made 8.5 an hour. i had vacay, sick leave, medical and dental and vision and a 401K. One is lucky to get that now, especially in some states with the federal min wage as standard. To your overall point, it was never the good old days for me and others . Well publicized Abuse statistics from the 80s and 90s ring true. Men were never wonderful either. Many of us never had a dad, nor father figures that cared. I personally experienced sexual harassment at a range of workplaces from the 80s - 2015. It wasn't better "back then", people are just more EXPOSED now and we see who we all are. I prefer technology. The first person who ever apologized to me that abuse happened to me wasn't' my mom, or my family, it was a UA-cam commenter. It is connections like this with people online that gave me hope. NOT because everything is better, but because we have access to research and find out the truth and expose the truth.
Happy Holidays! I appreciate your comment. I had some bad experiences as well growing up but the good overweights the bad. So I choose to allow the good things I’ve learned to build me. I was fortunate to have a loving family which shielded me from the chaos surrounding me. My biological father was not good man or father to me but my Stepfather is a blessing sent from God and showed me what a real man is. I am glad you are benefiting from technology and finding peace and resolution to the things you experienced. Thank you for sharing your experience as it will help someone else. Hope you have a great day and many blessings 💙💙💚
YES!!! that's exactly her name (Mrs Geraldine Ann Philips) so many people have recommended highly about her and I'm just starting with her from United States'of America, Florida 🇺🇲
my hope is in people like you. You are so beautiful and living your beliefs, faith, and truth. You act on them and I agree, to foster it to come together in it and iive it. I hold on because of chosen community and chosen friends and family. I love you Regina. I am so happy that it all started with seeing Dontae on Hairy Tornatos channel, and then Dontae was on yours and Derricks show and that was that. I love it. I wish I could say I disagreed. Even though my circunstances were grim growing up, I agree, I didn't know I could have reached out for help, but I have learned I could have that there actually were people I could have said help me please. I learned as an adult my aunt and uncle wanted to be my gaurdian and raise me. I didn't know there were people who knew something was very wrong but didn't know what to do. My aunt and uncle tried. I believe God gave me the gift of writing and drawing to help me survive and then to keep writing and drawing as a means to communicate and I beleive i will write and draw until I die. I am rambling I will stop. You are a light in the darkness that we are surrounded by. I am challenged (in a good way) inspired by you. I am so happy to have you as a friend and community. Thank You Regina you inspire me to really put myself out there in a way I have not and speak my truth. Merry Christmas my friend.
I’m remember you speaking about the things that happened to you as a child. I’m glad that you are sharing your story to heal others. Your aunt and uncle tried their best. It’s amazing what you find out as an adult. I’m so glad that we are connected to help support and build each other up. All of us don’t have the same experiences but we all have struggles and experiences that connects us. Keep sharing Connie . Love you back 💐💚🎄
Big business makes so much off poor people's backs, we're too tired/distracted to "put love in kids' food", "be gentlemen", or teach some kid to sew. Corporations need to stop creating divisions, and do their f--king share.
Just started listening to your piece here. We are close in age and everything you lead with is SPOT ON! People had manners, respect and were courteous. This is not made up nostalgia. The profit motive has destroyed everything as well as the auto and internet! I loved my grade school and all the play after school. We were always outside after school. Just using imagination and creativity to discover the world. We also had autonomy to go places by ourselves and be home for dinner!
I’m glad you can relate to what I’m saying. We still had problems but there was more support and concern for people. A lot of people’s motives now are not genuine and it does not feel safe. I appreciate you for commenting and sharing your experience. Many blessings 💚🙏🏾
Its America... you're supposed to worry about yourself and that's it!! Or... be an immigrants with kids or low income and live of the government. Two simple choices
I live in the Forrest by my self. Live day by day no holidays no nothing just face reality and silence minding my own. Sometimes is scary at night, dark but that's when faith comes in to play. Psalms 91
I remember it being like this all the way to the 90's, into the 00's. By the 20's it just became really really obvious. Like how you walk from the train tracks to the city, and the buildings start getting bigger and bigger, and suddenly you look around in the middle of a conversation and you're in a different world. The 10's -> 20's was where it really, really changed, and by the 20's that was it. I agree on the rap crap. People can't differentiate what's genuine culture, and what pulls apart.
You're absolutely correct. But the scriptures speak of the love of people going cold. I think it's just prophecy being fufilled. Thats why i thank God daily for all the blessings of family, my marriage, and everything he's given me over the years.
I remember my neices playing those kinds of games with their friends when we were growing up. I attended church until I was 17 and then returned to it when i was 23. I've been on this journey for the past 50 years. TMH is real. I have "never seen the righteous forsaken, nor their seed go begging for bread."😢
I’m am very blessed to have a very loving family. Parents stayed together and many of the same experiences. ❤. Thank you for sharing some of your life experiences. Church was a big part of my life too. The Lord loves us ALL, therefore I should love ALL.
Im a Gen Xer who graduated from college in 2000 and couldn't find a job after college or a job that required a college degree. I then witnessed my college degree get weaponized against me. I work in areas that i could have worked after high school. People get mad at me because I'm not making enough money. It just hurts.
I’m so sorry you are experiencing that. I pray you find something in your field. I know that can be frustrating and very hurtful. Don’t give up. NThank you so much for commenting. Many blessings to you
That's what I still can not believe. How many just comply and conform no questions asked. What I read is that our corporations are owned by foreign dictators, and they're whitewashing their agenda by playing like they're all virtuous and well intentioned. And people are falling for it hook, line and sinker.
2 Timothy 3:2-5 The Passion Translation (TPT) People will be self-centered lovers of themselves and obsessed with money. They will boast of great things as they strut around in their arrogant pride and mock all that is right. They will ignore their own families. They will be ungrateful and ungodly.
I definitely can relate to what you are saying. It's different now. I realize that some people can't relate to what strong church mothers are and how churches and communities helped each other. Teachers where different too. My teacher use to fix the girls hair.
Yes community is different for everyone and I know everyone experience is different but there was more connection and desire to help. My mother and neighbors helped watch each other kids. Now people are not concerned with children. Many blessings to you.
Very happy about your words your spreading. Community is now gone in my province of Quebec. We are social creatures and yet most people I have ever met since the last 30 years don't want anything to do with people. Go figure. if older generations were thinking like that, humanity wouldn't been born. But it's not just about natality, it's about LIFE. Something too many people just trashed it for no reasons.
Awesome video lady! You were spot on with everything that you said. Im a white guy, from the baby boomer generation...forced to live out of van for the last 3 years. I was raised just like you were. Cant believe people here in the comments, saying stuff like..."Lady, you grew up rich!" Further proof that people just dont get it anymore!! Theyve missed the point of your video entirely! This has nothing to do with you or how we were raised. Even if you did grow up rich....it doesnt make the stuff this woman is talking about, any less true! Why make a worthless, senseless comment like that? I mean...what was their point??? People have become stupid. Common sense is gone. The art of neighboring is lost. Today, its all about "Me", getting as much as i can acquire....for as little as possible.....and lighting my brain up somehow (addictions). The raw truth is, were all circling a drain.....and im scared of our future too! God bless you Lady! Great video!
we went to church every sunday too ---- the only thing my dad brought home from church was gossip material 15 min in the 10th row would give him enough material for the full month
Australia here, Re: on men stopping to change a tyre for a woman. Even I won't help a stranded woman now days. Over here in Oz so many women have called out rape or attack on men that have stopped to help them. It is always proved later the man did nothing wrong. People have done this to themselves. It is a snow ball effect and making people become very insular in their lives. Sad but true. Even in car smashes now, witnesses just drive on as they don't want to get involved and be a witness in a court case.
I remember vacation bible school and I'd looked forward to it because of the arts & crafts and the food. What I'm seeing today, we thought in the 80's, we'd be very old people or dead to see what our country has become.
I agree as a successful mixed black man i literally stopped hanging out with my own king. Our women are destroyed, most are literally overweight, and 99% chance shes a single mom. I had to literally travel outside of America to find a woman that ACTUALLY believes and follow god rule.
My daughter.teaches English Learning to immigrant children and she advocates for her kids diligently from getting additional services to catching online predator activities…
I hear and understand everything you're saying. It's just a different time. We are bombarded with technology. There wasn't any cell phones in the 50s, 60s, or 70s. Everybody played games outside not on a cell phone. We can talk about the way it was but today it's totally different. All we can do is adjust to the times and keep it moving. Stay hopeful.
There is no respect or boundaries Friend of mine told me how disturbed they were that their best friend was screwing his grandma. Told me how he was traumatized because he thought his Gma was having pains or something but walked in and seeing full action. Said he felt betrayed smh

This is why I compromise - I’m kind to people, if they earn it. If they’re a stranger, I assume they are worthless unless we connect.
@@Markanimation-t2v I also think too many people are just ignorant about the reality for the majority of average Americans.
I hear colleagues talk on societal or economic issues with a complete lack of awareness & ignorance. Many of whom are experiencing them themselves. Critical thinking skills as well as media literacy should be mandatory in high school.
There are far too many people with way too much money for this country to be commodifying human needs. Lack of upward mobility, affordable housing, nutrition, education or even healthcare makes people grow sour.
Combining that with their environment they grew up in is the perfect recipe for hate. Especially for those directly affected by economic pain no politician has ever known.
Lest we forget the generation of Boomers who literally just pulled ladders their whole lives after having benefited the most.
Bullseye , spot on , Bingo !!

As a white woman who grew up in the wealthy suburbs of Winnetka, Illinois where the home alone house is located at, my sister and I was raised to be respectful to humanity. I remember playing snowball fights with my family, playing baseball with my parents and going to church every Sundays. My hubsand didn't grew up in the neighborhood that I had since he comes from the Southside of Chicago but I love the food that he took me too especially that donut place in his neighborhood. He is working class but I help him got to my level. He is happy because he can work at home. We get mean stares sometimes since we're in a interracial relationship since he's black but we don't care because we love each other. I was his first love and he was my first love. Merry Christmas Ms. Regina.
That’s a blessing and love is love. I’m glad you both have each other. I appreciate you so much sharing and hope you both have a Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 💚

Last year, I was working full time, budgeting groceries, unable to afford date nights, and missing time with my kids. Now I learned how to make money online. Now am a SAHM, homeschooling, and making profits every week.
Wow that's awesome investing in alternate income streams should be the top priority for everyone right now. especially given the global economic crisis we are currently experiencing. stocks, gold, silver, and virtual currencies are still attractive investments at the moment.
You are absolutely right 💯
Am looking for something to venture into on a short term basis, I really need to create an alternate source of income, what do you think I should do?
Cryptocurrency/stock investment, but you will need a professional guide on that.

I am physically disabled with excruciating back pain every single day and the only medicine for release I can get makes me so sick I can't eat or drink. I spend today's Christmas in bed alone for the entire day. Last night I was crafting a Christmas present for my niece and taking breaks every 30 minutes to vomit bile. Ended up not finishing it fully because I am too sick to complete it. I am below the poverty line and can't afford to survive. I don't know what to do and I have felt trapped for years. My existence is just to suffer. Living the American Dream! Thanks for the video
@Begouch *I hate to read about your predicament. Did you take the C-19 vaxx? Many, many people are suffering side-effects from the evil put upon the populace. If you haven't tried it yet...try prayer. Pray as if your life depended on it because it does. I hope all becomes better for you.* 🙏🙏🙏
I've had two back surgeries one spinal fusion. Very difficult to do much when your back decides to not move. I'm aware money is tight but I found powdered shilajit the conquerer of mountains took the nerve pain away organic sulfur MSM and raw maca for balance. You only have to get the powder not tar shilajit only once it'll put you in a herx for three days but when you wake up after those three days helped with Lymes too you literally feel like a completely healed person the MSM takes the back pain away without side effects. Raw maca helps with I don't exactly know but it just makes you mentally feel better. Coconut oil 1 tsp every day helps with skin nails good for keeping your sacred vessel clean. You can get it at your local health food store but I don't currently have a vehicle so I get mine from Amazon Prime thank God we have that option with back pain. It's a pain so deep people just don't understand nerve pain unless you've lived it. I couldn't walk for 3 years but after powder shilajit I could finally stand up straight again. If you haven't experienced nerve pain it's so deep literally nothing helps. You want to get up but your back locks up and you can barely move. Been there it's miserable I still have flare-ups but run and start taking MSM before it gets too bad. Hopefully this helps I'm sorry you went thru it too I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I had our son I didn't want my problem to effect him so I found a way to drive him to school every day with fresh staples from back surgery. I'm grateful I did my son runs the backbone of the train industry now that reason we have electricity. The coal trains. I feel exactly what you're talking about. Pills don't help. They gave me morphine literally didn't even touch the nerve pain. I had nerve blocks they were going to install a blocker device but I decided against it seeing too many horror stories.

Tell the truth my sister!! I grew up in Newark.NJ in 1960's.We had a ball even though we did not have much.There was so much love and support.Even though it was during the Civil Rights era.People cared about each...now seems nobody cares about each other.Sad to say our BM (not all) have hit rock bottom.I am 71 yrs old now... I -.this country scares me.
It seems like the more we accomplished the more we lost our morals and foundation. Thank you so much for commenting. Many blessings to you
I'm from same generation. There's a million reasons why things have become this way. Part of it started on focus on self. And media, technology, social media. But i truly believe the smart phones were the nail in the coffin!! It's been a gradual process I've been watching. It's truly sad

I also remember a time where people really did have respect and appreciated one another as kids, teens, adults, and elders whether you were poor or wealthy. But as I was growing up I started to notice how things were starting to shift in my generation as Millennials as well as the Gen Zs in the late 2000s going into the 2010s. People were cautious about who they dated, slept with, given their bodies, people would also leave you alone if you had heart, but now they'll fight, threaten, unalive, or cut you off if you stand up for who you are because you refused to let them cross, play, finesse, mistreat, or disrespect you. It'll never be the same.
I met a man a couple of months ago on line.We were talking about a week...and saying graphic disrespectful things over the phone.I told him I dont tolerate disrespect.He got an attitude and stop calling me...didn't apologize. I was glad.

Hi Miss Regina, I’m a 69 year old male and I agree totally with everything you said in this video. You are so right, much has changed in our society since we were kids, and it’s not looking good for our future generations.
The new generation will not experience the social and creativity we experience.
I thought it was only me who shared these same concerns. I COMPLETELY agree with you.
The break down of the family unit/ structure is the downfall of America. The product we put out is terrible nowadays. Unless we bring back the Family structure it won’t get any better.
All by design
@Lowie522 *One of the key reasons why the family structure is ruined is when they stared promoting same-s*x relationships as "normal and healthy." It opened a Pandora's box for every and anything degenerate to be accepted. They promoted it into the mainstream and protected it by man-made laws which spiritually disturbed the core of society. This is what happens to societies when people listen to man and not God.*
It's all by design and women accelerated the down fall!!
I actually don't mind how bad America has become literally all the money I make is invested in my business to then move out of America
@@Lowie522 So very true
It’s never going back the same
I grew up poor also in Harlem NYC in the 1960 and 1970 but our community love itself and each other. I didnt even know i was poor. But sadly enough them days are over. From here on it all down here. The descent into hell itself.
Glory be to God The most highest. She is telling all truth.🙏🏼👍🏻
There's an old saying "The fish rots from the head first." or "As above, so below." So look at power centers both political and economical and see what they care about. Not much.
I'm a good man who is trapped in a broken country. I am almost 60 and have yet to buy my first home. I feel this country is a lie.

I observed a change yesterday while last minute Christmas shopping at Family Dollar, Walgreens and my local supermarket. For many years I have done this and it's about the only time I set foot into the makeup/perfume area. In past years they had perfume and soap gift sets, all of this is gone and has been replaced with more makeup. What it told me was that it is much more important for a woman to look good, mainly in front of a smartphone for selfies, then it is to smell good around real people. We are definitely losing so much in our community's.
Yes people are in to outward beauty rather than inward beauty. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏾🌹
Let us not dwell in despair, for we, as a people, have a bright future. Even though times are looking bleak, the storm comes before the calm.
Ermm unless your talking about jesus being the calm. We're in for one hell of a storm if you've not read revelations
Hi Regina, yes I agree, you were rich! I grew up quite similar. I am in your age group, a social worker like yourself. Grew up in church, people helping people, playing the outdoor games ect..
It saddens me greatly to see how things are now. I raised my children with old fashioned values and it is serving them well.
I appreciate you so much. The older traditional values are very important when it comes to raising our children. A lot of children are being parented by social media. I hope you have a blessed day 💕
You just brought back so many childhood memories especially the games we used to play. I enjoy you reminiscing of so many events common in our community. I didn’t realize how much I missed those days and I am currently making some serious decisions about how to go forth in America.

Agreed! Sense of community is done, sadly
My sister, I can somewhat relate to what you are saying. However, if you look back, you will notice that even the time you are reminiscent of was looked down upon by the older generation of that time. The older generation also reminisces about their earlier years when things were different and much better. Knowing this, we should instead try to find ways to adapt to the new generation and how people relate to each other. This is the only way, the nostalgia of the past is not the solution. Can we still teach goodness, morality, faith, and courage in this new generation, absolutely?

At age 81, I grew up in a middle class family, with loving parents and grand parents...I had three buddies, we were like brothers...skating, biking Saturday matinees at the neighborhood "movie palace"! You are so right...I have very little connection with current trends...gone-gone-gone! The dating scene...forget it! My dad was a hard working fellow...he could fix anything...tought me many things in fixing around the home. Cars were easy to work on...not the computers on wheels of today. Mom was a wonderful homemaker! So glad I grew up in that period of the late 1940s-mid 60s! Thanks for your thoughts, and have a Blessed Holiday Season...your tree looks neat in the backround!
You are so right. Morals seem to be a thing of the past. Lord help us going forward. 🙏🏽
Morals are gone and something we will read about. We have to keep teaching our kids . Thank you so much for commenting. Many blessings to you
It is even worse than you think. There is a movement in this country that hates the very idea of morality or normalcy, and they consider these things "oppression".
That's why we yearned for the 50s, 60s, and 70s. I remember in my town, everybody was outside. You could hear music from the next store and smell your mom's cooking. I tell you, when my dad came home from work, you could smell the work on him. He instilled a work ethic in me. And like you, I am afraid for America. Our society has/ is turning into a scam society.
That is a fact things have changed. It's definitely not the same America as when I was a child. Couples don't stay together and there is no such thing as just trust and loyalty
It’s not the same Jeff. People hearts are growing cold. We have to hold on to our values . Thank you for commenting. Many blessings to you 🙏🏾💚

Merry Christmas. Im glad to hear you speak on this. I've been having these same thoughts as well. Life is nothing like it use to been. When did it all change. I had to work today on Christmas I can remember a time when the streets were practically empty on Christmas . I work in the field and I couldn't believe how much traffic there was today. I scary now of days Thank you for speaking about whats going on. And your right we can do something about it
You are right. People are not in the holiday spirit and Christmas is not the same anymore. The world is rapidly changing . I appreciate you for sharing . Happy Holidays 💚
Feeling sorry for yourself will bring nothing but despair upon you . I grew up poor but cause of my choices and not given up became wealthy and never forgot where I came from.
Church was 3 times a week it is first in my life before anything My grandparents told us we didn't look out the window we look through the spaces in boards on the house and
saw who it was. They slept by the fireplace in the winter for it was only heat in the house. I am white and we have some folks in our family that are of color and they have made us
a greater family.
Yes I remember those days and miss them so. You be blessed as well.
I appreciate you. It’s good that you can relate. A lot of people in my generation know what im talking about. A lot in other generations will never understand. Many blessings to you. 🙏🏾💚
When good people get left out the world will lose compassion
Don't be afraid. Change is inevitable. Sometimes, it's unpleasant, but nothing lasts forever. The only way to make progress is through change. Learn to embrace it rather than fear it. Societies fall, paradigms shift, and something better will rise up in its place. All we can do is embrace the short time we have on this earth and try to roll with it.
I believe in everything you are saying.I use to live that life in the past.
Thank you for this video. Community is a big value for me though I see it slipping away.
Agree about the job/wage greed issue. One of my first jobs in 1991 was a receptionist I made 8.5 an hour. i had vacay, sick leave, medical and dental and vision and a 401K. One is lucky to get that now, especially in some states with the federal min wage as standard.
To your overall point, it was never the good old days for me and others . Well publicized Abuse statistics from the 80s and 90s ring true. Men were never wonderful either. Many of us never had a dad, nor father figures that cared. I personally experienced sexual harassment at a range of workplaces from the 80s - 2015.
It wasn't better "back then", people are just more EXPOSED now and we see who we all are.
I prefer technology. The first person who ever apologized to me that abuse happened to me wasn't' my mom, or my family, it was a UA-cam commenter. It is connections like this with people online that gave me hope.
NOT because everything is better, but because we have access to research and find out the truth and expose the truth.
Happy Holidays! I appreciate your comment. I had some bad experiences as well growing up but the good overweights the bad. So I choose to allow the good things I’ve learned to build me. I was fortunate to have a loving family which shielded me from the chaos surrounding me. My biological father was not good man or father to me but my Stepfather is a blessing sent from God and showed me what a real man is. I am glad you are benefiting from technology and finding peace and resolution to the things you experienced. Thank you for sharing your experience as it will help someone else. Hope you have a great day and many blessings 💙💙💚

I am so happy that it all started with seeing Dontae on Hairy Tornatos channel, and then Dontae was on yours and Derricks show and that was that. I love it. I wish I could say I disagreed. Even though my circunstances were grim growing up, I agree, I didn't know I could have reached out for help, but I have learned I could have that there actually were people I could have said help me please. I learned as an adult my aunt and uncle wanted to be my gaurdian and raise me. I didn't know there were people who knew something was very wrong but didn't know what to do. My aunt and uncle tried. I believe God gave me the gift of writing and drawing to help me survive and then to keep writing and drawing as a means to communicate and I beleive i will write and draw until I die. I am rambling I will stop. You are a light in the darkness that we are surrounded by. I am challenged (in a good way) inspired by you. I am so happy to have you as a friend and community. Thank You Regina you inspire me to really put myself out there in a way I have not and speak my truth. Merry Christmas my friend.

Just started listening to your piece here. We are close in age and everything you lead with is SPOT ON! People had manners, respect and were courteous. This is not made up nostalgia. The profit motive has destroyed everything as well as the auto and internet! I loved my grade school and all the play after school. We were always outside after school. Just using imagination and creativity to discover the world. We also had autonomy to go places by ourselves and be home for dinner!

I remember it being like this all the way to the 90's, into the 00's. By the 20's it just became really really obvious. Like how you walk from the train tracks to the city, and the buildings start getting bigger and bigger, and suddenly you look around in the middle of a conversation and you're in a different world. The 10's -> 20's was where it really, really changed, and by the 20's that was it.
I agree on the rap crap. People can't differentiate what's genuine culture, and what pulls apart.
You're absolutely correct. But the scriptures speak of the love of people going cold. I think it's just prophecy being fufilled. Thats why i thank God daily for all the blessings of family, my marriage, and everything he's given me over the years.
I remember my neices playing those kinds of games with their friends when we were growing up.
I attended church until I was 17 and then returned to it when i was 23. I've been on this journey for the past 50 years. TMH is real.
I have "never seen the righteous forsaken, nor their seed go begging for bread."😢

I definitely can relate to what you are saying. It's different now. I realize that some people can't relate to what strong church mothers are and how churches and communities helped each other. Teachers where different too. My teacher use to fix the girls hair.
Yes community is different for everyone and I know everyone experience is different but there was more connection and desire to help. My mother and neighbors helped watch each other kids. Now people are not concerned with children. Many blessings to you.
Very happy about your words your spreading. Community is now gone in my province of Quebec. We are social creatures and yet most people I have ever met since the last 30 years don't want anything to do with people. Go figure. if older generations were thinking like that, humanity wouldn't been born. But it's not just about natality, it's about LIFE. Something too many people just trashed it for no reasons.
Awesome video lady! You were spot on with everything that you said. Im a white guy, from the baby boomer generation...forced to live out of van for the last 3 years. I was raised just like you were.
Cant believe people here in the comments, saying stuff like..."Lady, you grew up rich!"
Further proof that people just dont get it anymore!! Theyve missed the point of your video entirely! This has nothing to do with you or how we were raised. Even if you did grow up rich....it doesnt make the stuff this woman is talking about, any less true! Why make a worthless, senseless comment like that? I mean...what was their point???
People have become stupid.
Common sense is gone.
The art of neighboring is lost.

Australia here, Re: on men stopping to change a tyre for a woman. Even I won't help a stranded woman now days.

Even in car smashes now, witnesses just drive on as they don't want to get involved and be a witness in a court case.
It’s so sad. You really don’t know who to help. Thank you so much for commenting. Many blessings to you
I remember vacation bible school and I'd looked forward to it because of the arts & crafts and the food.
What I'm seeing today, we thought in the 80's, we'd be very old people or dead to see what our country has become.
I enjoyed the puppet shows and food. I felt safe and apart of something good
The sad truth is that they are our children and grandchildren. I am Generation X, and I feel you are in the old ways we all moved.
I agree as a successful mixed black man i literally stopped hanging out with my own king.
Our women are destroyed, most are literally overweight, and 99% chance shes a single mom.
I had to literally travel outside of America to find a woman that ACTUALLY believes and follow god rule.
So so true and Merry Christmas ❤!
Keep telling your story. I agree we're in a world of trouble---no doubt about it. We all have to do what we can to right the ship...
Yes we have to do our part and keep our values. Many blessings
Regina, you are so... right.
It's quite simple ma'am. When we're disconnected from source (God), everything goes to crap.
My daughter.teaches English Learning to immigrant children and she advocates for her kids diligently from getting additional services to catching online predator activities…
Blessings to your daughter
A most intelligent discussion!
This makes me sad, but you said it right on!
I appreciate you. Thank you so much for commenting. Many blessings to you
I hear and understand everything you're saying. It's just a different time. We are bombarded with technology. There wasn't any cell phones in the 50s, 60s, or 70s. Everybody played games outside not on a cell phone. We can talk about the way it was but today it's totally different. All we can do is adjust to the times and keep it moving. Stay hopeful.
I open the door as my momma taught me.
Ms. Michelle! U ur absolutely correct! But we wrestle not with flesh and blood, But against principalities and spiritual wickedness in high places!

Friend of mine told me how disturbed they were that their best friend was screwing his grandma. Told me how he was traumatized because he thought his Gma was having pains or something but walked in and seeing full action. Said he felt betrayed smh
