Stop Talking Back!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 сен 2024
- We're not sure if it's the age (the twins are 6), but they are talking back a lot lately. We know kids go through "that stage" but it's our job as their parents to raise them to be respectful.
In this video, Mama McClure talks to the girls on how much they've been talking back and let them explain their actions. This video is suited for parents, it shows our parenting style, but we also want to respect the opinions and thoughts of the girls.

Alexis: "I haven't gotten in trouble today"
Mama: "well the day is still young...give it time"
The girls have entered that stage of talking back...how would you deal?
There goes those cutie pies again!😍😄 (Ava!!!...pinching Alexis to try and shush her..😏) they both are the CUTEST💜❤️ (Ami and the girls: do you only shout out people who's on Instagram 😯)...not accusing you of doing that, just curious💜❤️💜
Love you guys
💚🇸🇦💚💚💚💚🇸🇦🇸🇦💚💚🇸🇦💚💚🇸🇦💚 is the age they want to be the boss
@@FREAKOUT123ism loll😁😁
Well my mom would pretty just talk to me about what's going on
This is where we realise how different this girls' personalities are
Ikr Ava is a diva 😂while Alexis is the shy one.
Funanani Jessica their body language (especially being reprimanded) and facial expressions says a lot.
Ava talks alot wile Alexis is the one that takes the blame
She is talking to them about talking back but the whole conversation they are talking back and talking over her.Ami is not getting anywhere.Good gracious these kids could talk .Aaaaah.
They can never discipline these kids.
Alexis is so emotionally mature❤️ . I liked the point she made about talking back without knowing what she is doing is talking back .
i talk back to my dad lol
I talk back to my mom
That’s what we call “backchat” in the Caribbean. When we did this, my mom would make us pick up a book and stand in front of everyone and read a chapter or two out loud. She said, “read a book since you have so much to say.” It actually helped us in the long run. 🤷🏾♀️
lol that's a good approach!
@@MightyMcClures
I for sure believe so.it's so funmy though.
Saphire 64 omg that is a good idea. I’ll do that with my kids (when I have them) 😂
Saphire 64...I thought I was the only one. My Jamaican parents did this to me. You're lucky it was only a chapter or two...I swear I never understood how answering what I was asked was "backchat"...If you asked me a question...shouldn't I answer????? When I didn't answer it was..."Pikni yuh deaf...yuh nuh hear weh me ask you"SMH...
🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Ava : “stop sissy I’m talking right now”
... sis 😂😂
M.J. Fergerson I have told you to not call me sisi 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I thought it was Alexis
I think she said "cece"
@@alyssasworld1163 nah I don’t think so
I love how when they don’t know something like what a word means they ask
I love that you talk with them like this. Alexis was able to say that express how she doesn't always understand when she's talking back. I felt like that growing up, but I would just get hit. Thats not good at all.
Skylar A. Same!!!
Yeah everyone has attitude though like it's normal and it's especially expressed when younger because you are you're purest form. you haven't learned much yet and even if you have its hard to grasp concepts quick and really understand consequences because your brain is still forming n growing so no one should be too harsh and understand a child's development
Skylar A. Same lol. I also would get beat for apparently giving attitude
Skylar A. Yep I’m going to talk to my kids this way. I would get hit right in my mouth
tirzah writer what are you saying?
The way AVA said i’ll tell Dada to cut that out😂😂😂 see this small girl🤣🤣🙆🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Exactly! 😂😂😂
Exactly lol
I love watching your videos you are so nice and preety😍💑👼❤💗💖
Some of these comments are highly inappropriate and not helpful at all. They're children and she's absolutely doing the right thing. She's definitely taking measures to correct the behavior but feels unsatisfied with the results. So, she called on her "community" for alternative ideas. Good job, Mom! We must always be trying to do better...at everything in life! Especially child rearing. My suggestion is am echo of another response. When the "back talking" begins, do not respond. Stoically. They will immediately notice you are looking at them but not responding. Give it a minute or so, a question or two...then respond with one question: Are you talking back? If they don't self-correct, repeat. No anger, annoyance or raised voice. Just laser focus until they get it...and they WILL get it. I could tell you invoke self-correction in them from paying attention to their demeanor during this video. You've got this! It's an ongoing process for life, to reevaluate and try something new if you want a different result. Just keep keeping love at the forefront and God in the lead. You and Justin will raise intelligent, beautiful and respectful human beings. I have no doubt. 🙏🏾💙
thanks Twyla! we are very confident in our parenting and ask for suggestions because we want to involve others who have dealt with the same thing.We aren't negotiable on our effort to mitigate back-talk:)
It's they way she talks to them. Even her tone gives them the idea that they have privilege.
Like she tells them not to talk when others are talking, then she does that very thing.
They are actually mimicing her
@@Sachi52 I don't agree with that assessment but you are certainly entitled to your opinion. We see different things as individuals because we don't have the same perspective. My children are adults but at 25 and 26 they still exhibit manners instilled in them at 5 and 6. That is not to say I have always said or done the "right thing". There will be a line your kids won't cross because you have repeatedly shown them it's the best way. You won't accept less. The world MAY, at times, but as a general experience....it's just not acceptable to be rude, mean, dishonest, disrespectful, etc. Not everyone has that guidance. Not everyone will be civilized. Perspective is key. You can only control you and what you do. How you react. Whether you agree with how Ami conducts herself, maybe there's a way to ADD something vs judging the Mom. I find her brave to be so open with the world and vulnerable enough to even acknowledge seeking ideas from other moms. That's sacrificial for the sake of doing what's best for your child. You're probably awesome in your own right. You surely have a heart for young people. Let's try to have one for everyone while we navigate through this world. Have a blessed and prosperous week!
Ava: "ill tell dada to cut that out"
Mom: "No your not telling anybody to cut that out, your not the boss"
I was weak 😂😂😂
Lol same
Angela Cash-Hoyt right that was funny
I was crying LMAO
What part
Ava is fucking rude but my favourite twin Alexis is a cry baby
Ava has her mother’s personality. They’re going to bump heads, a lot !!!!
Women bump heads with their daughters because their ego gets bruised and they improperly respond with spitefulness and being vindictive towards the child
Yup bingo. Its almost like a competition
@@queenjustice9994 damn im glad yall see this. Almost like jealousy huh?? They are young gorgeous famous & in the spotlight
Not if Mom stays on top of it. Good job Mom!
Yea
It’s pretty common. They’re doing the classic “testing the boundaries” thing. Most of all, you have to be consistent with correction. And that’s what it seems you are doing. Girl, you just have to keep on it. They are at that age where they want to know where they stand in the family. Too many parents trying to be friends. Just. Be. Consistent and keep on talking to them. Continue to let them know YOU are in charge, and there must be consequences. Consequences back up the fact that YOU are in charge. Ok, because you talked back, we WERE going to get ice cream, but now we are not. We WERE going to the park, but now we’re not. If there are no consequences, they don’t care. They are smart. They know they aren’t supposed to do it, but unless there are real consequences, they won’t care about it. You have to give them a consequence that really hits home for them, to let them know YOU are in charge.
Sharon Hutchins This is great advice. My granddaughters are like this but the Mom is trying to be a friend. It can’t work like that. 😊
Great advice!
Great insight and we totally agree!
💯
My mom would ask me what did I say to make me think about what I said and how I said to correct the attitude. With a very stern tone in her voice.
“I’ll tell dada to cut that out” lol I was just as slick and bossy as a kid lol 😩 my granny would set me straight no matter where we were which was embarrassing enough on its own & would give me all the worst (age appropriate) chores to do around the house and eventually I learned that she wasn’t the one to play with lol.
she thought she was slick by saying that lol...he didn't cut it out!
Brilliant
Nora Chance no she’s not stfu

I think one idea is to ask Ava what’s her definition of a diva? Then ask her if she sees it as a positive or negative trait. She seems to hear that word towards her a lot so it can easily make her act a certain way if she constantly believes everyone thinks that about her. 💁🏾♀️
Thank you
So true
@The McClure Family
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
This is so important
“She said nip” *laughs* “what does nip mean” omg she is too much 😂
Yess
😂 just 😆
Did you see the roll eyes
L
Ava is a real diva.She can taaaaalk.Poor Alexis .
They talk over their mom.
Where is Ava getting all that pep from all of a sudden? She used to be so shy and calm...
Cee Mg It’s a phase. It will go away but it takes times. :) kids be different at different stages of their ages.
@@ozaayyyyy__9402 she is really coming out of her shell and hope she continues blooming unendlessly...
Cee Mg If she does keep blooming like this her attitude is going to be DISGUSTING.
Cee Mg she’s growing up so she’s now coming into her true self
Cee Mg same
Ava is tripping me out... She said GIVE MORE CHANCES 😂😂
Loll
CiUnna T. Logan with the CHEEKIEST smile after 🤣
I actually understood what Alexis was saying because there’s times they may not mean to appear to be talking back. By the way, wait until the teen years, Ami 😱😂
RIGHT! I got in trouble a lot as a child for "talking back" and I was just saying how I felt or what I thought. I think there's a thin line between talking back and having a voice.
John Doe Exactly! I would get a pop from my mom because she said I was talking back and I wasn’t, I was just trying to explain 🤷🏾♀️😆
I’m still going through my teen years and I’m just trying to have a normal conversation with my mum about whatever it is and then she’ll just become rude towards me and then say I was talking back. I’m just normally speaking and the she’d go insane towards me
@@Faidisfat as a parent of grown children, we sometimes forget we were your age. I learned I had to listen because sometimes our teens don’t always know how to say what they want us to hear and understand. I hope it changes soon for you.
@@SharelLove I hope it changes for me soon as well
Mom: Ava, your attitude is stinkyyyy.
Ava: Yeah, well... (and continues on with her point)
Woooo-chile...
I love how well Ava understands that talking back is pointless yet she does it on a regular basis still 😂😂😂 these girls crack me up
Avaaa 😂😂😂
“I’ll just tell dada to cut that out “
“No we talk for yourself”
I think Ava is a deep thinker and very confident! Her personality is on point too. Give them equal chances to express themselves.
@florence, she can be all that and more without the attitude, she looks like a mean kid, that's how other kids will perceive that, mama better nip it off the bud.
Glad the mama's noticed and doing something about it before it's too late, in my time, my mama used the rod, she didn't have time to talk to you, just by her tone of voice, eye contact, i knew not to open my mouth again lol.
And her great confidence and strong personality can lead to a negative attitude towards people if not corrected from now.... Im happy she has parents of discipline.
Yes, Ava did dominate this episode. I felt pain for both girls somehow and even Ami, because she has to steer these girls without destroying their personalities. That's HARD...😬
Kristy Kabui Daughter go play with a bop it
I feel mom is tougher on Ava. Does anyone sense this?
I see myself in Ava😢😍 growing up I used to be "a loud mouth" one of my teachers even wrote in my school report that I'm "a chatterbox" and as I reached my teenage years I started getting self conscious about "my loud mouth" and "bossy attitude" that I started hating that about myself (this is getting too deep so I'm gonna cut it here..) my "deep" voice didn't help either... but when i was 16 I met an angel of a woman at the mall while being my loud self she stopped me and said something along the lines of "your voice is so resonant I love it..." long story short she was in radio and that's how I landed my first job.. my confidence came back but I was still feeling sad about people calling me bossy and to be honest I still struggle with it today as a Law Student in Africa's number one university. And everytime a person calls me bossy, honey I tell them "I'm not bossy I'm a leader and I'm I'm defs not loud I'm a young woman with something important to say.." 👑👑👑👑 don't take me wrong its important to teach baby girl wrong from right but its imperative that we dont call her "bossy" and "loud" its scars us as black girls 😔 confidence is fragile...
love your family loads❤❤❤❤
Mihlali Gaiza wow. my teacher wrote a letter to my mom when I was younger as well about my “chatter mouth” lol again....I was conscience of my loud mouth that the people that really knows me noticed I’m much more quiet now but deep down I struggle with it cause in my heart I am who I am. I love to yell at Heavens about any and everything. It’s how I show my excitement and my sadness and everything in between. Some people just don’t understand and it is hard cause I don’t like to run people off or annoy others but I can’t help who I am.
I love Ava confidence and intelligence! It's just part of growing. Mama McClure got it under control.
I can’t wait for when Jersey can talk as much as the girls 😂
Jersey will need his own talk show he has a big personality already.😘
@@mariedames3240 fr THOOOO

Disaster in the house
Same I think he going to be following the twins because he look up to the girls
I love when Lexi ask Momma Mcclure how she’s doing. So polite.
Both of them are polite
Jay Jay just because one gets a compliment doesn’t mean the other has to get the same compliment lol.

Lexi Always does it! I Love it too!
She is such a sweetheart. 💖
"I'll tell dada to cut that out" lmaooo Ava always been the spicy one
😂😂😂😂 it cracked me up
Ami: **Asks Alexis a question** “...I know it’s hard.”
Ava: “No it’s not I can answer it easy peasey lemon squeezy.” 😂omg
Poor Alexis, she is trying to make a point and Ava just keeps on talking, and talking, and talking. They are so adorable!!!
“I’ll tell DaDa to cut that out” Avaaaaaa lol
Ifeoma Onwu too me out 🤣🤣
Lol Ava was like you speak for yourself I ain't going no where 😭😭😭
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This conversation should have been discussed privately, putting your children on blast like that it makes them shy to even tell you anything else that’s important 🥺
This is The only family chanel that is ACTUALY HONEST and doesnt hide The real,, realashionship''. 😌🥺💞🥰
Alexis is so patient 😂 like Ava has to calm down
Ava is in Diva mode.
And it’s so weird because a couple of months ago Lexi was the diva
@@ke_mathe, na Ava has always been the diva years ago.
They both get impatient when the other is talking and seem to think that one is gonna get to talk more than the other. They try to outdo each other.
@LORIS MEGUENO ava is also kind
I think that I just realized just how bossy Ava is! 😯
Funny how Lexi talks about Ava all the time, just look at the beginning of the video and it's fine, she talks over Ava all the time, she whines if Ava raises her own shoulder, but Ava is always the one reprimanded
Alexis is more bossy Ava is picked on and is ganged up on
They're at the I'm going to see how far I can get' phase
I too have been watching them for years and I've definitely noticed that she's always harder on Ava and more lenient with Alexis🤷🏾♀️
We have to keep in mind that we only see a few moments of interaction on video. We have no idea what they are like in private.
Alexis: Today I haven't still gotten in trouble
Mama McClure: Ahh the day's early, give it time 😂😂😂💔
she probably did end up getting in trouble. lol
😂😂😂
@@MightyMcClures Thanks for replying.💝💝 If only you know how wide I'm smiling right now
I would have rather seen her praised and encouraged for not getting in trouble.
Nope, it’ll continue well into their teens! I have a 19yr old daughter! Good luck mama!! The tudes that they give and display, WHEW!! When you feel your blood pressure rising, due to their behavior/attitude, I’ve found it best to walk away or have THEM walk away, and come back when they get themselves together and are ready to talk. I agree with having open dialogue. This allows them to see and know that their feelings DO matter, even if they’re in the wrong, or we STILL may say “NO!”. They’ll see that they too have a voice and learn how to voice feelings and opinions appropriately, regardless of the outcome(they may not always get their way, not all the time will we, as parents, agree OR disagree).
Love this video!!! One love from the Jersey Shore(Neptune-near Asbury Park)❤️
Ava needs more love ♥️. You can tell she's starting to live in the world of her own making her to careless. She needs more attention than she's getting. That sassy attitude is a defense mechanism to shield something. Please pay attention to her
🙌🏽🙌🏽
Very true
Agree
I agree.. Shes way too tough on them. U hardly see any loving words touches or tenderness shown to the girls. Even when Ava had a tear on her face mom scolded her and almost ridiculed her asking ARE YOU CRYING!!!??? And Ava's defense was no I'm not crying it's from the sun...smh. Sad to see such lovely beautiful sweet girls subjected to this treatment.
I hate to say but I feel like its all just for money... Moms getting surgeries and they are taking trips leaving the girls behind. They bought a new and btw HUGE house. Parents closet is like a celebrity closet. While it seems the girls live very meager and are micromanaged and dictated to. No freedom to just be a child. No.. they must be documented daily for their parent's financial gain. Smh 😢
There at that age where they’re testing boundaries. So it’s good that you’re nipping it in a bud now
"Sometimes when I yawn my tear drips down because of the sun."
😂😂😂
Adalia Valentin 😂😂 She said that right when I saw your text
She couldn’t hold in the tears of sadness poor baby girl
I cry when I yawn to tho
@@poisonkinelle the funny part was that she said from the sun!😂
Khayla Bradley when I yawn my eyes water too so she wasn’t crying
Excellent parenting, Ami. They’re at a stage where they’re definitely testing boundaries. Your kids are precious; however, it’s very important to correct inappropriate behavior at this stage, because when they reach the pre-teen years it will be far more difficult to correct. Good job! ❤️
Sandie Wynn well said.
Trueee
@9:20
"Can I talk now Ava 🥺" Aww poor Lexis 💞🥺 broke my wittle heart
“ stop sissy I’m talking right now” that got me laughing
I'd also like to see you talk on here with each one separate. Just a suggestion.
Kimbo Krg me too. Ava has become quite rude in talking over Alexis. I wanted to remove her.
Yes that would be nice to see, I'm sure Ava might be a little bit more tame, she is the oldest so they tend to me more bossy, jus sayin'. But sometimes that isn't the case.
When they started twin talk, Ava was the dominant speaker. She was reserved for sometime but it seems she is coming around again. So this is no new news. But I think this suggestion is good, let them do the talk in turns but about 2 Tuesday's and let's see
Me too...because when together they 're blocking each other and at the end Eva seems to always be the one who talks the most...I'd love to see them express themselves separately in these talks
Ami, Ami, Ami, how many times I call your name now? You have create these little intellectuals who are learning how to articulate communication which benefits their curiosity. However it's backfiring on them because they are challenging the wrong person YOU. I have found the best punishment with children when they're being disrespectful stop talking to them. They will ask you, why won't you talk to me(?) That is when you get the chance to correct them and say, " when you learn to talk to me and respect me then I will talk to you" This is worse than a spanking try it!! Work's like a charm for me. 😊
Hmmmm. Not sure not talking is the best approach; seems more like a last resort option.
I might have to try this with my boys.
@@vanessameighan7537 ; When you stop talking remember you take things away they will notice. All that yelling repeatedly/repeating yourself, Too much work! ☺ our children are smart they are intelligent. Your children watch you they learn your ways. That's how they know what they can get away with little opportunist. Lol
Love it! Sounds good! And now is the time to catch them before they become too full of themselves.
Children don't like being rejected. By not speaking to them implies the same. These girls are so adorable! Same face but diff personalities!😘😘💃💃😍😍💜💜
Ava is an old soul with an INCREDIBLE mind and intellect, and I feel like mom is threatened by this. Both of the girls are so gifted emotionally and mentally, and I have a feeling “back talk” is really their curiosity and thirst to really understand your demands as a mom. It’s so important not to stifle the mind and feelings of a child, let alone on camera.
Parents do NOT give children enough credit and it’s heartbreaking. I love this channel so much, and mean no disrespect. I definitely understand this is just a little glimpse into you all’s lives... I’m just broken watching this, because it reminds me of my childhood.
Literally same. 😭 I absolutely adore this family and I’m very happy to see that Ami is encouraging a productive discussion if the girls don’t want to do something or need to express themselves. But these comments are killing meeee. These people condemn talking back but forget that their shero’s were considered sassy and some of the smartest people started out developing new ideas and ways of thinking by questioning authority (their parents).
jade colon EXACTLY oh my goodness! Thanks for adding on to this!!
I said the same thing she sees something in Ava. I feel like she is either intimidated or jealous that she is head strong. This is not a bad quality but Ami sees it that way. She treats her like she is holding a grudge. Both girls are very smart!
@@marionpope4379 Alexis started out the video blaming her sister in the beginning ARE YOU DEAF? 1:13
Ami says you girls talk back a lot Alexis immediately deflects to her sister saying she talks back a lot. AMI SAYS NOTHING
Soon as Ava does it she tells her she needs to stop acting like she's perfect and does nothing wrong. LIKE TF??
@@marionpope4379Well if you watch and pay attention to this video and past videos Ava gets ganged up on and reprimanded but rarely Alexis and if she does Ami uses a different tone with her. I SEE WHY SHE ACTS THW WAY SHE DOES...Save it 🤚🏾
Mrs.McClure you're doing a great job with the kids by taking the time to speak with them about their attitudes. As a former elementary school teacher from kindergarten to 5th grade I've seen it all. As cute as they are the girls will be ostracized in school by adults, their peers, (who might already be jealous already), and potential business partners because they feel disrespected. God trusted you with three beautiful children. You are not wrong to expect respect and responsible behaviors. If there are no expectations one day you'll lose it all, and the girls will blame you because you're the mama. There is only one woman in the house and that's you. P.S. Jersey's taking notes.
Ava doing all this explaining like she gonna follow the rules 😂 n she think her agreeing with mama gonna get her out of trouble lol I was the same way when I was younger lol 💗
When did you. Start. Twin. Talk. Tuesday do. A. Life hack. Video.
It's really great parenting to talk with your kids like this. I think it really helps kids to learn how to think and problem-solve and essentially grow up. Having said that, I don't think they could be any cuter
Thank you. We want everyone to see that we take raising kids seriously
ava: "no we you no we im not doing it i'll do my own"
whew chile😂
You're thinking what I'm thinking
We all know what happened when the camera stopped😅
She is going to be a DIVA AND in charge!!! This is inevitable!! 😂😂💯
"And you're STILL gonna wear the shoes!" 😂😂😂 Exactlyyyy
You guys are doing a great job! Parenting is hard when you really do it ‘right’ ... when you care enough to correct and teach instead of letting your kids run wild. They are testing boundaries and asserting their independence - totally age appropriate, but you guys are doing a great job helping them navigate healthy ways to do that. 👍🙌❤️
I Love & appreciate That we get to experience the growth & development of the Twins! They are so beautiful to see. That said I often have opinions that I'm not sure if I have a right to share as they are NOT My Children! But watching them so regularly almost makes you feel like a surrogate Aunty! You just wanna get involved. 🤗 I think you do a very good job Ami & Dad Too! The Girls are special & quite unique despite their "identical-ness" My Personal favourite is definitely #Alexis!! 💖 She has a nature that I just adore! Ava is quick thinking & seems more mature but I think she overshadows her Sister too much! However I think they will grow through it eventually & as Alexis becomes more Confident, they will settle into their roles as Individual yet Identical Siblings much better! Ava defo has a head start in that area! She constantly points out her individuality! More #Lexi Please! 💖💖
omg ava’s attitude ISSS nasty 😭 she use to be the sweetest one . i’m sure it’s just a phase or if it’s the kids at school . but it’ll pass . but keep us updated on the back talk ! i’m sure this talk will help them
Kids
I agree phew childdd
Really?
Shouldn't say nasty
@@clarissasmith6767 lol its a innocent 6 year old sassy attitude smfh
They must be disciplined when they talk back to their parents. My niece's children talked back because she let them debate with her. When I baby sat them they.never got way with talking back because I am old school. What i say is what I meant and that's it.
I'm so Alexis, the thought of me getting in trouble upset me as a child😞😞
Raaven Holland Same😞😞
Raaven Holland what’s your horoscope ?
Keep doing what you are doing, talking and teaching with a lot of patience. I commend you and Justin on being the best parents you can possibly be.
Thank you for allowing us into your world. It’s good to see real videos. This was a great teachable moment for both parents and children . Real life experiences are the best.
These girls switching personalities when they were younger Alexis was the meanie 😂😂😂😂😂 now she is the sweetest and ohh Ava 😅
Watched carefully Alexis is still the meanie
Ava is such a Diva like she literally tells her sister to speak for herself and not them😂😂😂
@@emmanuellakonadudesu9855, the funny thing is she's always telling Alexis to speak for herself, but doesn't allow her to speak. Like when she cuts her off, talks over her, and says "sissy I'm talking." They remind me of my friends twin girls.
@@nurturingresiliencemahalia4233 no ava is the meanie
I raised one. Its their intellect, being precocious. Because of those reasons, my mistake was asking too many times "what do you think? what do you want? its your choice'. Sometimes they need to be TOLD instead. Bring back the balance.
Also maybe to change most of their "I want's" to "Can I?". To correct themselves, stop & think about how it sounds. I used to ask my son "are you asking me, or telling me".
I'm the Alexis in work meetings: What are we here to talk about??? Let's get to it lol
No fr that's how I feel like they had better things to do
I am LIVING for this look today!!! Omg the color and the hair-gorgeous!!! 🧚
Also you guys are fantastic parents! I swear I live vicariously through you 💞
I like their personality and how they expresses their feelings.
Yes it's a dialogue
It’s definitely the age mixed with their generation!! But good thing she has parents who want to be parents and not friends.
2fly4thedrama it’s just the generation most kids act like that when they turn that age bc their starting to understand how to do more things than before

“I’ll tell Dada to cut that out.” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
9:14 to 9:40 Alexis suffered there. I was sad watching that.
This Ava diva comes strong and Alexis struggles to come through.
Mama I think Alexis needs more chances to assert herself since Ava is the stronger personality.
Exactly its sad
For sure Alexis needs more chances
At 7:50 Alexis asked such an important question! I find it fascinating that at such a young age she’s asking for clarity on what it means to talk back. It shows maturity and her wanting to avoid trouble. Growing up in an African household, there was no such thing as expressing your thoughts or feelings. It’s interesting because I still struggle expressing my thoughts and feelings to my mom as an adult. She believes everything I say and do is rude and disrespectful when all I’m doing is expressing my opinion. I understand tone and body language contributes to delivery in a message so, I’m VERY CAREFUL with how I talk to her but still I’m rude. Lmao so at this point I choose to stay silent and growing up I was always silent. I only spoke when needed and still do.
This is such an important video and I hope all parents take the time to sit down with their kid and have this conversation with them. Teach your kid how to be respectful but don’t silence them. Allow them to express themselves in a respectful manner. But you have to teach them!
So true, I was told a child should be seen and not heard and then they sent me to my room😕
Africa is not that bad
I agree with the previous comments regarding the twins testing their boundaries with your authority as parents. Continue to let them know exactly what behavior they manifest you consider inappropriate , and if necessary take away some of their privileges. On another note, I would like to "Shout Out" to Mama Ami about your attractive and beautiful selection of dresses for the twins to wear. On "Twins Talk Tuesday", they always look absolutely adorable! I have watched other twin shows, and I think you do the best job at selecting their clothes.
yah we like to let them voice their opinions but, in the end, back-talk will not be tolerated. appreciate your input!
@@MightyMcClures exactly
Ava is going to become a lawyer 😂😂❤❤😘
This video definitely shows the difference between the girls!! And it was an eye opener to how they actually raise the girls and discipline them. A lot of times people think that children who are popular on social media don't get disciplined a lot or that they get away with everything. This was a good video!
Ami, you've allowed your girls to freely Express themselves, and now they're confused about what's appropriate....They're still very young so there's still time to establish boundaries with them....Ava is a bit challenging because she can't see herself being wrong, Alexis is a humble little girl although she has her stuff to....Just get ready mama McClure, I have a 12 year old grand daughter and her attitude stinks 98% of the time....Girls have horrible attitudes growing up, and you have two 😫 but you're doing the right thing continue to be firm....You may want to take things that they like a lot until they get it together....You love those girls so much but you may have to start showing them a bit of tough love.... the attitudes without a doubt will definitely be challenging! 🌈
I think all children do this especially independent strong minded children, they will challenge their parents at times. Good communication, proper discipline & praise is a key to being tactful. However, a tactic that works one day may not work the next it's mind boggling raising children they are illogical at times when it comes to a parent's reasoning.
Since when was Ava such a talker😂
ALWAYS 😭
EMMANUELLA KONADU DESU I noticed that as well. She use to be the quieter one.
@@marvelousmarva9666 Exactly . I always saw her as quiet
Alexis I’ve just noticed has a distinct tic which is more pronounced when she’s upset or stressing bless her 💕
I've noticed that too
Ava the diva.Bullies Alexis and her mom
The worse punishment me and my three sisters got was to be separated. Mom gave us plenty of that to think about what we had done. It worked!!
Mama: are u crying😭😭😭
Ava: no l am tired 😪😪😪
Mama : how are u tired in the morning 😑😑😑
Me: lol😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hi, Ami
First, I want to say I'm a 55 year old African American woman in Chicago. I want to comment on the "back talk " issue. It seems the problem is the "attitude" with the back talk. I was just like the girls. I only knew how to speak the way I felt at the moment. Just like Ava and Alexis, I didn't know it was with attitude. You may have to sit them down individually and address the "attitude". You and Justin are teaching them that they can say what is on their mind with respect, albeit . This means with the two of you, also.This is the only way they are going to speak their minds with others. Raising kids to have a healthy self- esteem is hard.
Ava started a whole new conversation “if u try stuff you might like it” like girllll
I don’t know if the talking back will ever stop😂😂 I’m almost 21 and my mom still be giving me that mom look when my mouth gets too slick
Girl I'm 37 and STILL get the look lol!!
The look doesn't affect me at all anymore
I respect my mom too much to disrespect her like that.
Ugh omg Alexis you’re amazing keep being sweet these people in these comments are trying to say you’re not the strong one you are and I love these talks but sometimes they get so cringe when Alexis looks defeated and overlooked 💯❤️
I love Alexis too I have no beef with her or Ava
I felt them when they said they don't even know when they talk back. I thought I was the coolest kid who doesn't talk back until I started Expressing myself and tht was regarded as "talking back". You are blessed to have kids tht talk freely to you...yes they need discipline with attitude..but dont let them be scared of you.. I grew up being scared of my father not bcoz I was scared he was gonna hit me..coz he never did. But to talk to him like a father, ask for advices e.t.c...I still can't do that..he is trying to get me to talk in every way but I'm just not there.. I'm glad they are open minded
I noticed Alexa can talk all the time and Ava have to wait
So true
That's what I see as well.
yup!
For the past couple of videos ava was doing all the talking ....and Alexis was quiet
Sometimes Ami comes across as clashing more with Ava.
She is young, trying too hard to tame her might make her coil into her shell.
I find Ava as confident and deep thinker.
Moreso give Ava a chance to express hetself, trying too hard to control her might backfire
Recently she frequently says Ava is more difficult. If she is not careful it will come true. Plus Alexis is crying out for positive recognition.
Let Ami raise her children as she sees fit. She’s training them for life and life lessons are important in child rearing. They will not always be little cute girls they will be big beautiful women someday and the beauty must be more than skin deep. Anyone who watches often will notice that Ava is sometimes domineering and gets an attitude when she doesn’t get to dominate. She also does it with lots of attitude. It’s her personality we get it....but she can learn how to take turns in life. Turn taking in conversation is good manners. Being expressive cannot be mistaken for poor manners. Neither can domineering be equated with being expressive.
@@maxxitee4761 well spoken!
I agree, I don't like that at all. Alexis is a kiss up. They same to favor her over Ava. I love Ava more because of this.
sonia laing calm down 💀 they’re kids
Ava has a great understanding of the topic good job . Hopefully both of you will learn not to back talk . And be respectful to your parents whether your young or old 👌
In my experience, stopping a child from talking back involves stopping it from the beginning when they are very small. Having an opinion about something is one thing but when a child is told what shoes to wear by a parent, the child saying they don’t want to wear what they are told to wear is talking back. When a child is allowed to get away with telling the adult what they want to do as opposed to what a parent says to do that is unacceptable. They are at the age when children try to defy their parents but if it is stopped as soon as it begins the problem is controllable and the behavior done less. Also, there is nothing wrong with spankings. Spare the rod spoil the child. I am a parent and this has worked for me. Conversation is also a priority. When I spanked, after I explained why. Keep the good conversations coming.👍🏽
Ava: ouch
Mom: she barely touched you
Ava: *laughs* ok
😂😂🤣💀 she know what she was doing
The more Alexis tried to speak both of the strong McClure females, Ava and Momma talked her down and her tics got more and more pronounced awwww 🥰
I noticed too :/ little nervous ticks... I have something similar just not in my face, in my speech
It’s what makes you unique 🌸
Thats so sad. They needs build confidence in her she seems so insecure and she is clearly sensitive
Good girl
Ava squeezed Alexis and we witnessed 🧐
She's mean to Ava I hate that
Sisters 👯 do that sometimes it was just funny in a sense because we caught her Ava tried to be slick lol
Jay Jay that’s the other way around Ava is more mean to Alexis
@@millicentanaman7614 nooooo, I know that but Ami is more strict to Ava than Alexis could it be that she is 1 minute older
I believe they treat them the same
Lol when Mama McClure said, "The day is young, give it time" I felt that.
YES, I remember that age, my daughter, is 13 an OMG. Just stay consistent with reminding them of their manners, words and being respectful to parents and each other.
My girls, 5 and 7, have been watching Ava and Alexis for some time now. This video was on their tablet this evening and I just wanted to tell you, we relate to many of these things! It was a great teaching moment! Thank you!
Omg, Ava is the female equivalent of my son, nothing seems to be their fault ever, and slyly minipulative, that pinch was so sneaky, but I must say Ami you and Justin are doing an awesome job with them.
When they talk back you discipline them and tell them to clean small areas in the house and when they do good in school and behave well you reward them with a toy or an educational toy
I have 5 year old twins girls with the same exact issues ! Lol i felt like i was watching myself talking to my girls 😂
In my opinion I don’t think they are talking back, it’s more communication because they are very talkative. I’m glad my mom never said to us “do it because I say so” she was more like explaining and communicating back. Kids nowadays are very different and I think embracing the confidence (the diva) of the child is more beneficial than always reprimand. She is one of a kind, I admire her confidence but she still needs to be respectful. They are amazing now, hope they will make a difference in this world! Keep doing a great job.
Ami, I love the way you and Justin talk to the kids, I did this with mine and my 3 year old was spelling the word ambulance. It makes a big difference when you don’t talk baby talk from birth. I have 3 girls that was raised between me and God, they grew up to be beautiful inside and outside, and college educated. So when people say kids need a two parent home, try raising them with God in the mix, I also didn’t spank my children for everything, and you have to let them express themselves. When my girls would throw a tantrum, I waited until they were done, then talk to them and tell them, that they need to channel their anger in a better way and to never let other people see them act that way. Then I would tell them to use their words and talk to me.
I love Twin talk Tuesday!
Y'all look so cute in your outfits.
thank you!
Happy Independence Day to Nigeria 🇳🇬 u girls are cute “I will tell dada to cut it out”
