My parents didn't celebrate mediocrity. If we got good grades, good, you are SUPPOSED to get good grades. If you get into college, good! They will only celebrate when you FINISH college.
I’m glad Tamera , said what she said bc it’s not a “White” thing all of the mothers in my BLACK family are very celebratory of everyone. It’s not a race thing at all.
Janaé B yeah but most black parents I know aren’t gonna lie and say you were amazing if you suck. All the ones I’ve met (including my dad) will straight up be like “dang. That was bad”
I over cheer for my kids, but it has some negative consequences. They want praise, rewards and compliments for everything now all of the time. So I'm finding a balance.
My parents were like Mama Mai. I remember one time I got straight A's on my report card and I asked for a reward (Cause all my friends got a reward) and my dad told me "why should I reward you for something your suppose to do anyways." He wasn't trying to be shady or mean he just thought of it as a normal thing to do.
I totally respect your parents so that was me not all kids can make the grade not all kids are contestants so you need straight ato me that is something to celebrate
It’s not a white/black race thing, it’s a personality thing lol. Some people have outspoken personalities and others are more chill. How is a whole race gun be one personality?? 😂
Ok for all ya'll hefers down in the comment section, tamera was saying being celebratory or complementing your children's efforts is not just for caucasian parents, and her mom is in fact black and very celebratory. She wasn't claiming a side, she was just stating that it's possible to be cheerful from any culture. PHEW people r so dense.
Yeah, sometimes its weird because Tamera states that she identifies as a black woman. And I feel like, from of the episodes I have seen, that Loni identifies her as a biracial woman. I accept Tamera as a black woman and she should too. I don't understand what the problem is.
Thank you Tamera for correcting those statements. Not all black mothers are the same. I, myself, compliment my children and give them words of encouragement and positivity energy!
Lmaooooo, sammmeee Jeannie. 😂😂. It may not be a race thing but I saw that first with white people too, not gonna lie. And my mother is Polynesian. I will literally NEVER forget the day I realized that other parents give their kids compliments. For mine, it’s just stuff that you’re SUPPOSED to do so we never got compliments. 😢 Lol. I was like damn, your parents just say nice things about you?!?... TO you!?!?... for NO reason??? I can’t relate. 😭😭
my mom did this for my school performances, graduation literally any of my accomplishments! I'm latina (central american) and I noticed a lot of my friends' mothers did the same thing too mainly POC. Jeannie said something about mama mai not telling her she's proud of her because mama mai claims "it will make her head big" but tbh I will not be doing that with my children, it's unhealthy to not show emotions all the time!
I really don’t think its a race thing. My mum is black, from Ghana (West Africa) and she really is my biggest fan. She’s the screaming by the side lines type of mum and i love her for it🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
And there's tons of black moms who would be cheering and crying for their child's success. Why do people care to stereotype,, it's like they have to cause their brains can't think deeply enough when it comes to complex concepts I guess.
Jeannie’s right..I felt the same watching tv and wished my parents reacted like that...and tamera’s reaction to Jeannie calling her white was weird..clearly it wasn’t meant in a bad way
Faith FO no everyone’s sick of Jeanie’s newfound racism when up until a year ago that white D kept her plenty happy. Stop making excuses, she’s been shown her true colors
@Faith FO No I completely agree with you, Jeanie was just talking about how Tam inspired her with how she praises her kids, and how she remembered seeing that white people used to also do the same... I don't think she was directing it at Tam because she's part white.. but more so like oh hey, there's that thing that you both do in common that I appreciate... just felt like Tam's response came out a lil negative, almost like she assumed Jeanie was directing that statement at her because she's part white.. when she's equally as black as she is white so...
Jeanie wasn’t calling anyone white. She’s saying we see it on TV that white parents cheer on their kids. As an Asian person myself we only saw it from tv shows where white parents would be that supportive of their kids and that’s something we’ve never really felt and wanted to be able to do for our kids. Geesh y’all taking it out of context!
Phillips Watson I wouldn't say it's a foreign thing... it depends on the parents and what they feel is healthy... your child shouldn't feel happy for EVERY little thing ! Like taking out the trash ? " YAY TIMMY , YOU DID A CHORE " like that's something you're supposed to do
Myronn Coleman 😎 SWEETIE...IN GENERAL I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT TIMMY CHORES...😜LOL😜IT'S A FOREIGN THING... MOST AMERICANS IN GENERAL ARE MORE EXUBERANT!!!
I'm Vietnamese and my parents were similar to Jeannie's. I would get straight A's and I barely got a reaction out of them. I remember having to ask for some kind of reward. Silly me for asking but I saw it on TV/movies and from other family and friends. I see now we are just raised differently and it's ok.
As a tennis player - it is a very mental game so if you see your parents over react whether it’s good or not it will mess with ur head My mom has to wear sunglasses and have a indifferent face on
Ladies, people don't act differently based on skin colour but culture, traditions, personality, morals and manners. Please learn that and stop with this "white people do x, black people do y".
Crazy how Jeannie said something that reflected mostly Asian culture but it became a debate about making it all about race, when it’s actually one of the main things that Asian kids grow up with. It’s not because she was shocked to see white people compliment their kids that everyone has to put all the POC in the same bag. But Tamera talking her black mom shows that she missed the point. There are a lot more shades than just black and white
I make that face when I tell my brother to not touch my snacks and he keeps pushing it I’ll give him a dollar to go get a Swiss roll but leave my cosmic brownies alone!!😂
I can't wait til my kids enter sports, I'm gonna be right next to the coach offering plays, holding signs, being straight loud and running up and down the field/court/track with my kids 🤣
I was celebrated for my accomplishments and for making good grades. I think it's okay to be told that you are doing a good job. It can make someone feel appreciated
I mean her mom has sat at like 2 million of her daughter's victories on the court! Give her a break! She ALWAYS shows up in support! She is an elder who has sacrificed her life and time to her children in support! Maybe she would rather get a massage or chilling at thr beach....but instead she's there in support!
Everyone’s different and at this point Serena has been the GOAT for years so it’s whatever. But for other people and their kids it’s important to cheer for your kids and compliment them not overly compliment but being stone faced and cold hearted can cause a kid to be the same way and become hard on themselves and become insecure
I get what Jeannie meant. There are some parents that really do not over compliment and do not constantly feel the need to validate their kids. It's not a bad thing at all and it don't mean the parents love them or support them any less, they just do not feel like they gotta congratulate every little thing the kids do. Sometimes it does feel like "Why are we applauding fish for swimming?" You did exactly what I knew you would do, you won the match. I do not need to go on and on and on and on about you doing what was expected of you because I already knew you would get the job done. But then Serena lost in the quarter finals and I was soooooooo sad!!!
Tamera guuuurrrrrl I am loving this hair !!!! 😍😍😍😍 YAAAAAASSSSS !!! I thought you were Tia back wen she was on the Game lol IM LOVING IT !!! LOVE U GUYS ‼️‼️💯😍❤️
Oracene is unbothered. She says it like she means it. I saw an interview where she said Serena is too much for her taste. Venus is more laid back and reserved; Serena is like, bam!! Here I am!!
It’s clear that Serena took after her dad and Venus took after her mom. I find that parents tend to be closest to the children that favor them the most.
I'm that mom and others cheer for my kids and look at me like "did you see that?" Lol. My daughter is very emotional so she tells me not to say anything. My son paid me no mind so I stopped cheering years ago. I just fist bump on the way to the car.
Jeannie, I am all Black, and I super celebrate my children....to the point of embarrassment! If thy're not embarrassef, I ain do enough... So, yeah, Black people DO celebrate their children!
That's just a mother who has traveled around the world watching her daughters play tennis for over 25 yrs + coaching them. In the past she was always engaged in their matches, but with 2 champs in the family, sometimes they(family) would have 3 matches to attend in 1 day, it gets old. Now she usually has her shades on sleeping or chatting with friends. She has always been a pleasant tennis mother, meaning she cheers for good tennis regardless.
She does that a lot. She really identifies herself as black alone. I wonder if she doesn't know her dad's side of the family, and that's why she doesn't claim that side.?
I haven't seen her adamantly claim her white side. I agree that she probably has been tried several times throughout her life, so that makes her really want to wave her "I'm black too" flag. and she Definitely waves it. She is always very quick to say "I'm black too!" when they mention her white side, but I never hear her say "I'm white too!" when they mention her black side (Edit: meaning she's fine and doesn't feel the need to educate people when they call her a black woman). It seems she would rather be called black than biracial, and she even tells her son he's black, when he's clearly not.
Wait, if I saw the clip right, Jeannie state she was surprised when she saw that in white shows, parents celebrated their kids a lot, and this is the reason why Tam said she is not white, for Jeannie to understand it was culture and not race...
Biracial kids tend to identify based on the race of their same gendered parent... so Tamera having a black mom is going to slightly favor her black side (aside from the historical context) because her mom was black... and little girls often connect with their growth as a woman to their mother... People want to come at her but she should be able to claim that.
The words we say to our kids become the voices in their head. So give compliments and encouragement freely. Don't let them fight for our affections.. life is hard enough. Just my two cents.
My dad is the same way ... if I came home with a good grade or I have exciting news to say all he will reply with is “Ok that’s good “ with a straight face while my mom will get excited🤣🤣🙄 .. I swear Caribbean parents are hard to please 🤣🤣
Lol...my bf just walked up to me and said you know you are The Real biggest fan... Like literally every time he walks up to me. I am on my phone on RUclips watching The Real🙂
Jeannie not that you don't look amazing all the time but this time you look like a goddess right here! idk what it is if it's God's grace smiling on you right now or what but you look stunning!!!!
Her mom is like wake me up when she loses 🤣
Lol her ass gonna die at that point
More like when she wins
Onur Bb lol🤣🤣🤣🤣
Serenas mom knows she's the GOAT that's why she's not surprised😂
I’ll never forget her unbothered look at the Aussie open 2007 final against Sharapova 🤣
That's what it is. She been seeing this. Plus she prolly looking like that because she tired of having to defend her daughters before the mass haters
" My MOMMA'S Black" Lol Tamera said that like ya'll betta recognize!
My parents didn't celebrate mediocrity. If we got good grades, good, you are SUPPOSED to get good grades. If you get into college, good! They will only celebrate when you FINISH college.
are you Nigerian or what.
Same! Except my parents didn’t even celebrate when I finished college. Asian parents don’t compliment or celebrate their children :(
@@funmilolaelusoji7898 first question that popped into my head 😂
Victoria Yeager lmao 😂 I am Canadian, we celebrate for everything 🤣🤣🤣🤣nobody care her
Victoria Yeager lol that’s my husband
Everyone is looking on point!
Yee Haa
Tamera's looking like a snack. Actually feast. 😍💋
and she made a cute face at the end
My eyes are in love...absolutely beautiful. Just smh MYGOSH 😍😍😍😍
Hell yes

kory morris that’s nice or whatever. But that was not the context of this here situation.
I wonder what Loni was saying after that
Tam tam "I'm not white" lol "my mother is black" lol
2envy Shanice Lol!
I over cheer for my kids, but it has some negative consequences. They want praise, rewards and compliments for everything now all of the time. So I'm finding a balance.

I totally respect your parents so that was me not all kids can make the grade not all kids are contestants so you need straight ato me that is something to celebrate
It’s not a white/black race thing, it’s a personality thing lol. Some people have outspoken personalities and others are more chill. How is a whole race gun be one personality?? 😂
People always try to put everyone in the same category it's so annoying! People are individuals. 🙄🤷🏻♂️
Right?!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm black and I'm not that basketball mom screaming in the stands. Im also a librarian and introvert so..
Agree. Like how can 40+ countries have the same mentality just because they share the same skin color, it's ridiculous.
Ok for all ya'll hefers down in the comment section, tamera was saying being celebratory or complementing your children's efforts is not just for caucasian parents, and her mom is in fact black and very celebratory.

I am loving Tamera's hair. I need a wig like that.
We need money like that, to afford the wig 😂😂
Tamera doesn't need any wig, her natural hair is nice as it is.
Tamera face at the end after loni said that lmao
She shoulda hit her with
"That wig you got on in all white doe.." Shut it down
What Loni said at the end tho? I'm still trying to figure out lol
Loni is always commenting on Tamera being half white.
Yeah, sometimes its weird because Tamera states that she identifies as a black woman. And I feel like, from of the episodes I have seen, that Loni identifies her as a biracial woman. I accept Tamera as a black woman and she should too. I don't understand what the problem is.
Thats not Loni's listening face. Thats her I dont agree with Jeannie/Adrienne face.
Thank you Tamera for correcting those statements. Not all black mothers are the same. I, myself, compliment my children and give them words of encouragement and positivity energy!
I think what Tamera meant was that her mother (who is black) is celebratory, and she doesn’t just get it from her white side. 😬

Thats Loni's resting *girl bye* face
Why can’t loni get the kind of wigs that tam has on🤦🏾♀️
The wig is fine, it's the application. Why her stylist didn't pull out some baby hairs? Lol.
Baby hairs and some dark root realness lol
Loni doesn’t hve sister sister money 🤣🤣
Lol her makeup looks amazing but this wig ain't that bad
That sister sister coin
Timmy has left Adrianne with a trauma 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Who else gets happy when they land on a plane ? 🙋🏾♂️ Serena’s mom knows her daughter is the sh’t she’s not surprised
She knew she was gon win..
She tired of her wins like....yeah been there done that...know what? Lol

Aayyyyy see my beautiful sisters♥️♥️☺️☺️

It's not really a black mom thing; I know mothers like her from different races and ethnicities.

My mom is the same way. I got accepted into a top university and mom my didn’t say anything but a simple Cold faced “good for your”
Damn I cheer my son for putting the dirty pampers in the bin like every time...it just motivates him to do it more 😉💀
Tamera at 4;07 just had to say that she was NOT WHITE and has a BLACK MOM!!
Tamera you’re BIRACIAL!!
Calm down and RELAX!!
I was so confused when she interupted Jeannie to say that.
She does that a lot. She really identifies herself as black alone. I wonder if she doesn't know her dad's side of the family, and that's why she doesn't claim that side.?
