Yoo he’s funny
I remember days like this 😂😂 7 years ago
Lord I hate an abusive learning experience, kids brains quickly shuts down to the learning experience from trauma and makes them more frustrated when it comes to learning. Also instead of kids being focused on problem solving and finding different routes to actually understand things they'd just rather find the quickest way to a right answer and be so scared of being in trouble rather than actually trying to absorb and immerse themselves in their lessons.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 is u ok mama or are u not 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭is u good or naw 😭😭😭😭
Philly has fallen
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
she needs to learn, help her little man
Bwoii you betta stop playing wit mama 😂😂
you really aren’t supposed to promote spanking or threatening your children like it’s cute. That’s generational trauma, I hate seeing people post themselves putting belts to the kids faces wondering why people think it’s weird that they flinching.
😂😂I’m a 90s kid and that’s straight out of my mom’s playbook 😂😂😂
they play that ishh with the wrong person and get beat down
Dat lil guy understand dat pressure. lmao😂
lowkey sad
🥰😂
😳😂
So your method of teaching is to scare him and make him feel like he's gonna get popped with a belt if he doesnt do his homework fast enough for you.. Now if you have a man/women and they pulled a belt out to make you talk faster would that be okay? or is it different because it would be towards you? Just because you gave birth and that's your child doesn't mean their not still a human. Kids have emotions just like we do. if your mad it's ok for you to scream,cry, get mad ,pout just completely lose it for a minute but when a child does it their wrong and start talking about whooping or grounding them. if your hungry or thisty and want a snack its okay but when a kid ask its no not till you do this or when I'm done doing this or that is wild af. Their still people who didn't ask to be here. so just cause he didn't answer fast enough for you. you make him scared to get hit 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️💔
oh no, not the African ceiling bird chirping in the background 😂
And of course, the chirp of the smoke detector
See kids can learn
