Jerrod Crittenden I absolutely positively unequivocally agree that the man sets the tone and not muddy the waters by doing alil something something and not cutting that relationship off
My husband’s ex told his daughter she was not to like me, she told lies over years. Yet my husband does not stand up for me when his daughter is disrespectful. Therefore she does not respect me. If my husband talked to the daughter then i know i would be treated better. Boundaries. And yes the man has a huge responsibility.
it is not a positive illustration of them as a human being when they do not act like a positive role model. My husband and I are close to divorce because he is not being assertive with his twenty six year old son that still lives with s
Just to clear up what Bridget said men have options just like women. However, a man is just as responsible and accountable as the woman to raise his family. Men are not supposed to leave, but they do.
@@FavDogBisquit never gave an excuse and never said he wasnt being a father either. Point is he left the relationship not the kid and some women can’t differentiate that.
This isn't a good group combo, there's too much talking over each other. Bridgette and Keisha are fighting to be heard. Julissa is the only respectful one. Bring Julissa back with a different group.
I think men AND women use the kids as pawns. The problem is people only see it from a father’s perspective. As a child of a single parent family, my mother encouraged and made an open line for my father and I to communicate. He instead was focused on trying to rekindle a relationship that my mother no longer wanted. That being said, he decided to not keep his visitation appointments nor promises because my mother didn’t want him. I was in fact used as a pawn, if he couldn’t be with my mother I got no interaction. He in essence said to my mother, I’ll be in her life and be a Dad if you take me back....or I’ll talk to her (me as the child) if you talk to me. There is more than one way to use children as pawns...open your eyes people.
if a man really wanted to use the kids as a weapon, he would leave and never come back. A Womans un-nnutured broken ego cant handle the fact a man she thought he loved her and have no closure and let her raise the kids by her self, is worse than divorce court.
My mother encouraged me to contact my daddy; and my daddy reiterated that to me and at age 36, I still contact my daddy while I live my life. Now, if he doesn’t answer it’s because he has and had a life before me, that consisted of: work and bowling. Yes I understand that men AND women use children as pawns because they have love for the child’s parent; but lack the fortitude to re-route the love they had for the other parent, to give the child or children. It is most definitely up to the parent to encourage a) biological or b) step parent.
Why are people getting mad when they answer Steve's questions? They are not saying all men and all women; they're just talking about those that the topic applies too.
I co parent great with my son's mother. She respects me and I respect her. We are both reasonable and put the child first. My husband son is 14, her is a bit older and his mother raised her son by herself and doing a great. On the other hand, his other two baby momma's just want more money and pinning her daughter against the father. When I got married didn't know how the other two were going to be. One of the mother bought s shirt for my husband, called him babe in front of me. My husband automatically nit that in the bud. She no longer does that. I as a grown and mature woman don't engage and don't confront them. My husband does, I hate drama and confrontations. I put the kids first not my feelings and my husband is indeed involved in their lives.
I'm always in support of women, but the truth is most women use the child to disrupt the relationship. And most women will always feel that the other women are the reason their relationship being over. Especially cuz most men do quite do closure . Dealing with a baby moma is usually easy when the baby's mom is the one who doesn't want to be in the relationship and us happy with where she is, or she is a good woman who knows she is better off with someone else. Cuz most women especially having had a child, even when they move on n the other man don't treat them well, then they see u being treated well by a man who didn't quite get it well with them, and being a good father to their child, they tend to want more attention, and even want back the man. They tend to secretly hate the new woman. Most people will refuse but it's the truth.
My husband's children and their mother's were never checked and things escalated. I'm out of the marriage almost 4 years now and hopefully will file for divorce soon enough. It's hard but never once can my husband say my children were ever disrespectful to him!!! Its just a selfish situation but its life!!
@@TrulyAGhost Never was and Never will be. Once one mother reached out to me to have a chat with her daughter and I did as she asked. Never met the others beside being told by my husband that they don't like me and their mother is the type of person to say Jump and you must just ask How High. My wrong is in entering the negative thinking time will settle things but its life. NONE OF MY HUSBAND CHILDREN CAN EVER SAY I WAS DISRESPECTFUL IN ANYWAY TO THEM. And you know that as a factual truth!
@@kristensanchez3003 shhhid . That's why I'm not marrying no body with kids. I want my kids to be the ONLY kids in the relationship. And that's a FACT!
My home is destroyed... Because of step mother... My mom died... My father married new wife... Every thing was good at first.... But after she had her own kid... My house is totally destroyed... I even don't know whom to blame ....first my big brother left home... and later my sister left home.... Both were good at studies..... their education got effected... Now they don't do nothing...left their dreams....messed up physically ,mentally and emotionally...Then in 2020 ..I also left home.... I don't feel like I have a home ...my grandma took care of me... But now she is no more.... I don't know what to do its like knife in my heart... I forgot how to cry and how to smile..I lost all my friends, cousin and my girl friend left me....I am alone in this world...my life is messed up... But my dad and her new wife with their kids are living a happy life.... My dad never called me..He don't care about us anymore....I am lost but i still believe in God... On day every thing will be ok.... I hope...
It takes a LOT of patience and productive communication between the husband and new wife. Said communication needs to happen frequently, and in the case where there may by a new found “culture clash” between the new spouses, immediately, with love and understanding that you each come with different sets of “baggage”. This is true no matter if it’s a blended family or not. Love takes affection, affection takes respect, respect takes trust, and trust takes faith in the solid foundation of friendship that you must build and nurture constantly. Notice I mentioned nothing about butterflies and rainbows, the false “love” that is sold as love in media and popular culture. Real love is work and it’s absolutely wonderful and worth it. I enjoyed listening to these folks hash through these ideas. :) Good conversation y’all.
I loved the discussion because the women panelist eloquently and realistically outlined various scenarios; in regards to step parents and the various issues they may face with partners children and their ex.
I think the strongest bond u can form is marriage, and also the maternal bond. Having a baby over and over for a man is not necessarily the strongest bond u can form between 2 individuals. You may be the only one thinking it's his baby, while everyone else around u questions it, including that man. Anyway realistically, a friendship w/the woman that gave birth to his children is really not necessary. It is more important to form a trusting relationship w/his children. Strictly pursuing a relationship w/the mother of his children is questionable. That's Y it should be slowly pursued. His family technically will become his new acquaintance and his children and the mother of his children can as well form a new family. So it is all something to pursue and adopt slowly.
I agree. Especially the having a baby not necessarily being a bond part. It isn’t actually even though it should be. Just because you had his baby doesn’t make you special or anything other than his childs mother honestly.
@@Spokentruths725 This is harsh but true. Also, why does everyone assume that the new good-sex-woman-wife is automatically “a step parent”? The children already have a mother. Being a maternal person, I may nurture and guide but still remain only a very concerned friend, if the children allow it. Though in my house, my rules: inside voice vs. outside voice, time out for mischief and don’t eat the dog’s food! NO SHOES INSIDE because British studies show that kindergartners are more well behaved in stocking feet! Not trying to cause beef because I raise new souls one way and birth mother does another way. Imo, her way takes precedence with her (and new husband’s) offspring. No one can ever take a birth mother’s place.
And that's great, that you feel that way... but unfortunately (as attested by the large number of children who grow up without their fathers involved in their lives) this is not the case ...... many men, for a variety of reasons do get up and leave.
You really missed the point there. She was talking about from a practical and physical perspective. When a woman gets pregnant, absolutely nothing changes for anyone but her. The man nuts and that is literally it for him. He doesn't have to carry the kid, he doesn't get sick, he LITERALLY has no physical tie. The woman has to give birth, breastfeed, heal, deal with the changes in her body, stretch marks, and whatever else. Men go through none of that. The burden is on the woman.
This situation reminds me of one of my friends who has a baby girl with her now ex boyfriend. Even tho they still hook up he’s been dating other girls. My friend would never admit it but I can tell it bothers her that he’s out with other girls, partying, etc when all she wants is for him to want her and be a family man
I’m ok with my man having kids but you need to be involved with your kids and your baby mama and then we can all come up with a co parenting plan together
Not understanding why Keisha married someone who had children she could have had anybody she wanted for the most part, like a nice young man with no children from a good family etc.. same thing with Alicia Keys, just don't get it. People say you can't help who you fall in love with, uhhh yes you can, I don't believe that.
I really love they Americans handle situations such as these because really and truly is the most mature way. From what I know here in South Africa black parents will not talk about anything thus lack of communication and hatred.
I was about ready to cuss their asses out through the tv if they said its the men who use the kids as a pawn more than women. Women hold that title 100%!! Can’t put every negative thing on men. Women are taking that one.
Which is bigger or more sensible or sustainable, given respect or deserved respect'? Ya, all will give everyone a piece of respect but that ain't going to last if the other person doesn't makes it deserves and instead demands!! Applies to all. What you think lads!❓
I gave respect and learned now that its earned. Honestly don't need none of them at my home. None. Not even my husband can come at my home where I struggled to build. Family life is wonderful but everyone has to work it. They can't come to the home where their father and his wife reside and be disrespectful and he does nothing.
I have a question what if you are an adult child of one of your parents and they are married to someone who is intimidated by their child as a step child how do you handle that especially when it is getting to the point to where you feel the step mother is ruining the relationship between her dad and her as far as father ad daughter relationship? As an adult child of that parent how do you handle that situation?
Why does Harvey lie so much about the dynamics at home. You can tell by his personality that his wife don't make all the decisions. But even further, what kind of man thinks he can't make a decision in his household? But the lady is right, the man has to help set the tone in this case. Just like if it's the woman, her new husband and ex. She would have to help set the tone.
No Keisha/No Bridget. They cool but they’re not a good match, in my opinion. Yes Keri/Yes Julissa/ Yes Evelyn Lozada/ Garcelle/ the other Vanilla ladies.
It shouldn’t really be called step parent more like The Guy/Girl your parent actually wants to be with haha and the kids have to learn to deal. Cause your not really a parent at all. Parents make rules, tell the kid what to do etc and step parents are told not to do those things so what’s the point of being a step parent if you aren’t going to parent the kid?
I agree with Steve here more than the women on this panel. I think they should have let him speak and explain what he was trying to say. I also think if you have come between two people who aren't divorced or began a relationship with a man who has kids before that relationship was over with, YOU ARE DONE. There is no way I am talking to a woman like that about anything especially my kid.
i don't agree with steve at all here. why is it only a business between the two women (the former wife/mother of the child and the new woman) and the man has no part in it, when it is actually the man that boinked both of them? it so often happens that the man muddies the waters by getting the new woman when he is not yet officially divorced, or by actually having an affair with the new woman when he is still married. why does the new woman in this case have to bear all the shame and blame and guilt and responsibilities, when he was the one to not do right by his former wife and their children? if the man in this scenario thinks he can get away from any discussion and confrontation by acting all innocent and a little goofy/stupid, he is truly foolish.
Im going to be real a child is not a soul tie do you know how many people have babies and dont care 4 there babymoms ladies having a child with a man doesnt connect you
You see how they at the end deflected the accountability back to the man as the bad person that cheated. 😂😂Steve clearly gave them an example that the "woman" was the cause of the divorce. But they threw it back to the man. They totally missed the question because they wanted the man to be the bad person in the narrative.
Are the women on the panel professional therapists? Because usually professionals state facts based on EVIDENCE AND STUDIES not opinions from their personal experience.
Steve need to stop asking beautiful women these questions asked regular women beautiful women can get away and do things that regular women can't do just like unattractive men can't do the same as attractive men can
Well first of all, don’t ignore red flags and close your legs so you won’t end up in this position; and if you do, always encourage your children to be in/of contact with a) biological or b) bonus parent. It shows respect because mother or father, have needs to and if a bonus-parent can accept the child with custodial parent, and give love; provide and protect, them why be nasty? Same with the biological parent, you can develop a working relationship
Females already know there's still an attraction to the child's mother, especially if the child resembles the mother. Females tend to only get seriousif the child resembles the Dad.
i AGREE... The man sets the tone! Because that's HIS BAGGAGE!

Depends on the age of the child. Small children, yes, you should probably be able to communicate with the mother. If the child is over 13-14, no.

Parents make rules, tell the kid what to do etc and step parents are told not to do those things so what’s the point of being a step parent if you aren’t going to parent the kid?
I agree with Steve here more than the women on this panel. I think they should have let him speak and explain what he was trying to say. I also think if you have come between two people who aren't divorced or began a relationship with a man who has kids before that relationship was over with, YOU ARE DONE. There is no way I am talking to a woman like that about anything especially my kid.
i don't agree with steve at all here. why is it only a business between the two women (the former wife/mother of the child and the new woman) and the man has no part in it, when it is actually the man that boinked both of them? it so often happens that the man muddies the waters by getting the new woman when he is not yet officially divorced, or by actually having an affair with the new woman when he is still married. why does the new woman in this case have to bear all the shame and blame and guilt and responsibilities, when he was the one to not do right by his former wife and their children? if the man in this scenario thinks he can get away from any discussion and confrontation by acting all innocent and a little goofy/stupid, he is truly foolish.
Because you don’t know he’s situation when you first meet him and he only tells you what he wants you to know
Keisha speaking facts
I just wanted steve to finish what he was going to say and they just kept cutting him off
I like her grey nail polish
has a the parent of the child, the man should set the tone of that relationship
Im going to be real a child is not a soul tie do you know how many people have babies and dont care 4 there babymoms ladies having a child with a man doesnt connect you
This why you should be careful when marrying a man
You see how they at the end deflected the accountability back to the man as the bad person that cheated. 😂😂Steve clearly gave them an example that the "woman" was the cause of the divorce. But they threw it back to the man. They totally missed the question because they wanted the man to be the bad person in the narrative.
Her answer for why woman use children as pawns more often is perhaps the most nonsensical thing I've ever heard.
Hey Steve 👋I really need your help... Can I get to speak with you privately.. like a phone call or chat with you directly... pleassssse 🙏🙏🙏
If ur not a parent of ur own, DO NOT GET INVOLVED WITH A MAN WHO IS A FATHER! Period.
The girl on the end talk too much
B Fit she was on love and hip hop who ironically cheated on her man so I'm not sure why she's a good choice on the panel... only if they knew
Sandra Angel smh. A loud mouth don't get u heard. But that's messed up how she cheated too.
Jada, as in alpha widow Jada?
Not the best example but I’ll give this show a watch
is it wedding dress?
Are the women on the panel professional therapists? Because usually professionals state facts based on EVIDENCE AND STUDIES not opinions from their personal experience.
they're horrible at advice lol
Steve need to stop asking beautiful women these questions asked regular women beautiful women can get away and do things that regular women can't do just like unattractive men can't do the same as attractive men can
What is it that an attractive men can do that an unattractive men cant do
The lady in the maroon dress looks like a Braxton.

I would rather be single than be a step parent. Too much admin
Keshia took that personal, because she uses her daughter as a pond
A pawn
From a step mom just DONT
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾
Take ego out off it love it
Well first of all, don’t ignore red flags and close your legs so you won’t end up in this position; and if you do, always encourage your children to be in/of contact with a) biological or b) bonus parent. It shows respect because mother or father, have needs to and if a bonus-parent can accept the child with custodial parent, and give love; provide and protect, them why be nasty? Same with the biological parent, you can develop a working relationship
None of these women listened.
Ladies this is 2022 and im honest as hell, there are no strait black men. So deal with that truth. That' s a fact.

How childish of you
@@Mzmissy215 how is that childish , that is just the pure truth
dhrdan not true my husband never puts me second
Quite true
so now they are victims, but when the time comes, they want it all, got it...
Females already know there's still an attraction to the child's mother, especially if the child resembles the mother. Females tend to only get seriousif the child resembles the Dad.
If your my step parent I don't want you to discipline ne
So do women want to feel safe or wear the pants? Make up ur damn mind.
if a man set's the tone a woman has the power to object
This is rubbish.
Men don't have soul ties to their children??... gtfoh
