If that was my daughter I would be leaving the Tyra Show in hand cuffs. His ass would be dead on that stage, then I would go after his mother and father for raising a woman beater.
And then we would see where your child got her abusive ways from in the first place. You cannot tell a child not to be fight in a relationship and then turn around handle the situation by fighting. Teach your daughter to be a lady, and she would never be in this position anyway. Show don't tell.
How would it be my fault if my daughter was beaten by her boyfriend? You obviously don't have any children because if you did you would know you would hurt someone for hurting your child. For you to say a "lady" wouldn't be in this situation is ignorant. And I don't believe I asked you for parenting advice. But since we are exchanging advice, maybe you should not put yourself in situations you know nothing about. Don't wanna raise nosey kids that get themselves into trouble for poking their noses into other people's business.
My husband and I have a two sons and a daughter Morgan, and I am raising her with poise, grace and to be a young woman. I can tell by the way this little girl in the video is talking that her mother is not raising her that way. And the boy even said that she jumps in his face and tests him. I have sons, and one thing I have noticed is that even when the girl is wrong, she is victimised and is made out to be a monster. Just like this 17 year old boy. I am not saying he is right for putting his hands on her, but nor is she. I hate it when we give these little bad ass girls a pass, and blame the boy telling him he has a problem. A man raises to the level of his woman, we as women hold the power, and a woman of substance and self respect would never allow things to escalade this far. There are signs and red flags in the beginning before it even gets to this point, and its our job as parents to teach our children. Look at the little girl, she's raised in a single parent home, which means that she more than likely doesn't even know what healthy communication between a man and a woman looks like, because she doesn't see it. This whole situation is messed up, and I can tell by your response to it that you're a single mother lol. But hey, bless you and your children Morgan.
Tyra may be a supermodel, but that doesn't make her "stupid." If you know anything about her past, she's had to go through a lot of shit to get where she is now. Besides, she covers things that no body would have the right sense of mind to cover, such as teen abuse & teenage sex and pregnancy. Tyra should be someone to look up to, not someone to bash.
I was abused by my bf for 3 years when i was 14. So glad i got smart and left that douche. Now im pregnant by the love of my life who does nothing but respect me
There is no such thing as being pushed too far. Even if she's a pain in the ass, you have to make a choice in how to deal with the situation. Either you deal with it respectfully, by trying to reason with her, or break up if it never stops, or you go for the quick fix and take advantage of your physical advantage. Hitting your gf just proves that he lacks patience, and that he isn't intelligent enough to discuss problems, which is two of the most important qualities in a life partner and father.
If I guy even slapped me I would slap his ass out of my life. No one should be treated like this. And same goes for if the abuser was a woman, she hits him, be best be expecting a black eye. Have some dignity and leave his ass if he or she don't treat you like you should be. #equality #feminism
Jose Vasquez I totally agree I would expect you to fight back. Girls who think they can beat their bfs and get away with it are idiots. Same go's to men who beat their gfs. I would fight bck 💯%.
as a teenager you should be focusing on school work not on boyfriends. because of children focusing on boyfriends girls at the age of like 16 are having babies at that age
+Hello Kimmy I didn't mean it as a girl can get her self pregnant it takes two both girls and boys should be focusing on school work.both the boys and the girls are to blame. By the way I'm a girl so I wouldn't just pick out the girls. I was meant to mention boys too.
I went to high school with these two and both of them were really cool, especially Edwin. However, when the two of them got together it went downhill. They stopped going to school, were arrested, and had a baby. This show was filmed 4 years ago, and they appeared on another tv show for the same thing and last I heard they're still together. They don't want to be helped, they want publicity or money.
Ok before tyra interrupted him he said he was antagonized to his breaking point. Are we seriously going to ignore the girl's role in this? If she's hitting him and egging him on to get a rise out of him why is her abuse towards him ignored and not addressed? As men we're taught to walk away from these crazy women but what the fuck are supposed to when they are in your face hitting and slapping you. She said she is desensitized to it. The reason is she is desensitized to it is because she likes it. Women like drama because it excites them. They get a rise out of conflict because anything else is boring a and a normal relationship is boring. I am so sick of this narrative being regurgitated that women are victims when they are just as responsible for their abuse towards men as men are for their abuse towards women.
This described my thoughts exactly! Not only does Tyra give responses that reflect her lack of knowledge on whatever it is she's talking about, she's also been rude to so many of her guests in her show! So it's seriously beyond me why people choose to go to her show to be publicly humiliated, potentially have her and her audience shout rude things at them without actually solving the problem they initially went for...
i spent four years in a abusive relationship. its difficult to break free because people are scared. and keep hoping the abuser will change. thanks to my dad realizing what was wrong he saved me.
Edwin and leighnann (spellcheck) both need to leave each other alone. One of my ex friends is like that with her boyfriend. They fight and provoke each other. I had to call the police on him and apparently I was wrong. In the end, they're still together and I'm a bad friend.
My ex-boyfriend did that same thing to me. But he hit my arm repeatedly. I had a giant bruise on my arm that lasted for almost a month. He also choked me, and would slam me into walls. Would use force to move me or make me go somewhere.
This couple was also on T.I's show "Road to Redemption" where they showed how Edwin's a thief & it's the only way he supports her & their son.. Guess she never left him! Smh
i hate the way trya goes in on the guy and always makes the chick feel like the victim... not once did the girl say he just came out of no where and hit her... she instigates him to get a rise out of him... no he shouldnt hit her but too many times i see girls asking for trouble and crying wolf when they get hurt. i dont think he is an abuser because they both admit that they both beat on each other she should accept some of the blame as well
Spent my senior year of high school through the end of my freshman year in college with an extremely abusive man. Even now, years later, I haven't told a lot of people (including my family) about it from embarrassment, a lot of these guys have serious narcissistic problems, and know how to manipulate. I didn't see the situation I was in until it was too late. Thank goodness I was able to get out of it and finish college and start my career.
you don't understand the amount of fear abusive relationships create.i grew up with my dad abusive me and my mom, and Ive been in 2 abusive relationships. one of which I was hurting the other. I was scared. for myself, and for him. he slapped me, I fought back. the amount of tension and fear is unbearable, but youre afraid to leave it. afraid that when you leave, your parter is going to find you and get revenge.
'' The moment you lay your hand on a woman, consider yourself as not a man" You don't need to be thought how to be a man or a woman, you have learn for yourself.
That happened to me. Four years though. He alienated me from my friends and family. Used my weaknesses against me. He would blame me and told everyone I abused him. I was 21 and inexperienced with relationships.
Wow, it's been that long now? How time flies!!! I have to admit, I did like her show. She had some good topics on, but some others were just BS stuff that was a waste of time to watch...LOL!
4:25 Tyra gettin' assertive! When her boyfriend talked and said "I don't do it like that. LeAnn makes me react that way. You can only push someone so far." He definitely has a problem.
From personal experience from an ex abusing me for 2 years both mental and psychical it's not as easy as you think to leave or speak out. You feel embarassed to admit it so you stay quite, you hear threats, your told no one will want you, your told your disgusting and your lucky to have them in your life. It's hard to leave esp when they say they want to change. I hope anyone in this situation has a loved too look out for them like i did.
@xXBlackTeddyBearXx That sounds very extreme! I'm glad you got out of the relationship. Did you get any counseling or report him or anything like that?
It is so important to know the person you're with. Any woman who know her man has grown up in an abusive home knows not to instigate a fight. Not at all saying it's her fault, however, if you hit someone (no matter the gender) expect a reaction. I myself was in an abusive relationship in high school and was lucky enough to get out of it before it turned too ugly. Others aren't so lucky. Victims of abusive need to speak up so that both people involved can find help.
I have always told my son that hitting someone isn't ok BUT I have told him that if someone hits him and he has no other choice, he has a right to defend himself
This was filmed in 2009 I feel like people didn't know about domestic violence. If it were now I think this girl would've left him the second he lifted a finger on her.
Yes, I agree with that as well. It goes both ways, no one should put their hands on each other man or woman. If a woman hits a man, that's abuse as well.
finally! someone else that sees what she does and doesn't just think shes some super innocent little girl. I mean come on, how many guys has she been with in the last year alone? and how many of those poor guys had a song made about them by her? People, just because somebody is female, does NOT mean they are automatically innocent!!
What I'm hearing from Tyra is "I don't care how much she inflicts pain on to you, pushes you to your limits, and purposely pushes your buttons, you DO NOT HURT HER BACK" and that's just not right. I'm not saying that the relationship should be if I hurt you you can hurt me back and vice versa that will be our "equality". It's obvious they both need help in how to handle their anger in a healthy way.
I see a lot of comments of people saying why didn't she leave the first time he hit her or so on these types of relationships don't start with physical abuse it's the emotional abuse it starts with and you're left with so self esteem. You don't tell when it starts because you think no one will believe you or nothing will happen to help you or it could even make things worse. I was in an abusive relationship for 2 years and it took me that long leave it.
I did, and im a girl. I was guilty but it was excused due to mental illness. I went to a mental hospital, got better, and here I am. but its horrible that this is happening. I learned the behavior from my dad and my brother, they both abused me. and I still have this feeling of revenge. now that my dad is helpless and old, I cant go around him since I know I will hurt him.
I hate that this is happening unfortunately the tyra show is no more they should be more shows like this to bring awareness to this cause im a teen and i never really knew aboout this
"I didn't know she was going to cry" Her daughter is letting herself get hurt by her boyfriend, the person you're testing out to get married and have a life with and won't break up with even though he's hurting her.... and she didn't know her mom was going to freakin CRY!? You SHOULD be surprised she's capable of sitting right next to him so still. wtf?
The biggest issue I have with Tyra in these types of interviews is that she doesn't seem to listen what her guests are saying. She puts words into their mouths and seems to just read her rehearsed lines to them instead of actually thinking about what the guest has just said and giving an appropriate response. One thing I like about Oprah is that while she does speak her mind, she also listens.
I don't understand how the boyfriend can sit there with a completely calm face. He's acknowledging that he beat up this girl (and yes, I know she hit him too), and he's just... chilling. It's also scary how calmly the girl talks about how they physically fight.
You know, i will say this about the mom because everyone is getting on her for not being overly angry, and not "knocking him out". But just think about this, the daughter is saying that this is the first time she is really telling the mother, and of course the mom knows something is going on because they are on the tyra show. and no matter the suspicions the mother can have, nothing can honestly prepare you for hearing something like that from someone you love and on national t.v. its hurtful.
They honestly just need to separate. It's not easy though, I thought I was in "love". I went through that fighting shit everyday for over a year... and it took the last major fight for me to finally say forget this I'm done. but i realized I should have said that when the first fight occurred. Lesson Learned.
Damn :( this is brutal. We need systems that press for safer dating between teens and young adults so that they can lead healthy futures. Start pressing this from childhood and the power of critically thinking and self confidence!
My thought exactly. Plus, everyone in that room had already decided that he is the crazy abuser and punches out anger without thinking before he even sat down in that chair. Tyra didn't even react more than "are you afraid she's gonna hit you too?". It takes two to tango in this case and if Tyra would just grill that girl a bit you would find some bits and pieces ppl might need to get the whole picture...
I honestly feel truly terrible for her, when a girl gets abused she ignores it. My boyfriend would call me fat and I went into deep anorexia and reached 98 pounds at 5.4 it was very scary. He would punch me whenever I didn't please him and he would shout at me and call me terrible things. I had to get a therapist for 2 years because I was so frightened that he would attack me. abuse isn't funny.
If it were that simple then people would leave but obviously its not as simple as people think. Take it from someone who has been in an abusive relationship, it is harder than it seems and it is very painful and in some cases its very dangerous to try and leave. We can try and get help from police but there is only so much that they can do and it wont always stop the abuser.
Listen up.
Don't hit woman
Don't hit guys
Don't hit nobody

How can they sit next to him like everything is casual..
Ikr!!!!! Why does she even stay with him? I'm not even gonna finish this
Bullshit I would have left the first time he hit me. Got both my old brothers they would have handled it.

That's the thinf, a lot of girls don't have the "courage" to do that.

My mom would kill my bf if he did something like that 😂

Leighann was so beautiful she definitely doesn't deserve him. Hope she's still alive.

Yeah, she went to Harvard so she can't be stupid >.
Oprah and Phil Donahue were covering those topics before Tyra. Just saying.
My ex-boyfriend punched me once . I hit him back and left his ass ( I was only 13 and now i'm 14)
My exboyfriend punched me in my stomach. I left his ass glad I did.
emotions200 you’re smart. Can’t believe people who have the resources and option to leave don’t leave
Such a beautiful little girl...
Why are the two teenagers just talking about it like it's nothing and normal? This is so sad.
Ladies love is NOT in the fist. Any man that lays a hand on you is NOT a man. You need to hold your head high pack your stuff and leave!
Domestic violence is on BOTH OF THEM.
Exactly
But one person starts it and one person starts defending herself
I was abused by my bf for 3 years when i was 14. So glad i got smart and left that douche. Now im pregnant by the love of my life who does nothing but respect me
Tyra can keep so calm in situations.
damn why do you even go to Tyra with him girl break up with him!!

I don't get it. Where are the parents? Why do they let their underage daughter date an abusive boy, let alone, even date AT ALL?
I always end up watching Tyra when I'm bored.

Sometimes you just gotta slap the guy outta your girl...
NO.. you don't
Not seriously...
okay.. Good
But women do tend to post up like men...
I don't need to get hit first to punch a guy in the face. They deserve it before they even act on it.
'' The moment you lay your hand on a woman, consider yourself as not a man" You don't need to be thought how to be a man or a woman, you have learn for yourself.
she hit him and beats him and he hits her and beats her but he's the only bad one. they both need help.
That happened to me. Four years though. He alienated me from my friends and family. Used my weaknesses against me. He would blame me and told everyone I abused him. I was 21 and inexperienced with relationships.
I grew up being abused and I will NEVER lay a hand on my children or family. Thats cowardly and fucked up.
Is Tyra still on the air? I haven't seen the show in like over 3 years now....

From personal experience from an ex abusing me for 2 years both mental and psychical it's not as easy as you think to leave or speak out. You feel embarassed to admit it so you stay quite, you hear threats, your told no one will want you, your told your disgusting and your lucky to have them in your life.

I myself was in an abusive relationship in high school and was lucky enough to get out of it before it turned too ugly. Others aren't so lucky. Victims of abusive need to speak up so that both people involved can find help.

Tyra: Why Are We Here Today, Edwin: Whachu mean?
Cute dress Tyra
Yes, I agree with that as well. It goes both ways, no one should put their hands on each other man or woman. If a woman hits a man, that's abuse as well.
finally! someone else that sees what she does and doesn't just think shes some super innocent little girl. I mean come on, how many guys has she been with in the last year alone? and how many of those poor guys had a song made about them by her? People, just because somebody is female, does NOT mean they are automatically innocent!!
Its so weird how open they are about it and how little they seem to care :s
well said
that is true but some people dont know how to stop....such as phone calls, jealousy and not knowing how to let go
shes beautiful
thank you! you can tell she aint innocent just by looking at her!
You go Tyra! Preach! :)
XD Tyra said This is the TYRA show this can turn into a whole nother thing. Hahaha, like what?!

You SHOULD be surprised she's capable of sitting right next to him so still. wtf?
How did I get from watching band interviews to this o.O ?? xDD lol
Thank you. (:
The biggest issue I have with Tyra in these types of interviews is that she doesn't seem to listen what her guests are saying. She puts words into their mouths and seems to just read her rehearsed lines to them instead of actually thinking about what the guest has just said and giving an appropriate response. One thing I like about Oprah is that while she does speak her mind, she also listens.

BLINDS me
dont forget about the dramatic music.
I don't understand how the boyfriend can sit there with a completely calm face. He's acknowledging that he beat up this girl (and yes, I know she hit him too), and he's just... chilling. It's also scary how calmly the girl talks about how they physically fight.
i love tyras weave
This was my favorite talk show!!!!
Yes it's sad...buut if you're fighting twice a week then leave the damn relationship or you just like it
You know, i will say this about the mom because everyone is getting on her for not being overly angry, and not "knocking him out". But just think about this, the daughter is saying that this is the first time she is really telling the mother, and of course the mom knows something is going on because they are on the tyra show. and no matter the suspicions the mother can have, nothing can honestly prepare you for hearing something like that from someone you love and on national t.v. its hurtful.
They honestly just need to separate. It's not easy though, I thought I was in "love". I went through that fighting shit everyday for over a year... and it took the last major fight for me to finally say forget this I'm done. but i realized I should have said that when the first fight occurred. Lesson Learned.
Do I have to download the virus or do I have to just click the link?
Damn :( this is brutal. We need systems that press for safer dating between teens and young adults so that they can lead healthy futures. Start pressing this from childhood and the power of critically thinking and self confidence!
My thought exactly. Plus, everyone in that room had already decided that he is the crazy abuser and punches out anger without thinking before he even sat down in that chair. Tyra didn't even react more than "are you afraid she's gonna hit you too?". It takes two to tango in this case and if Tyra would just grill that girl a bit you would find some bits and pieces ppl might need to get the whole picture...
"i don't have an anger problem"
HAH my ass
I honestly feel truly terrible for her, when a girl gets abused she ignores it. My boyfriend would call me fat and I went into deep anorexia and reached 98 pounds at 5.4 it was very scary. He would punch me whenever I didn't please him and he would shout at me and call me terrible things. I had to get a therapist for 2 years because I was so frightened that he would attack me. abuse isn't funny.
If it were that simple then people would leave but obviously its not as simple as people think. Take it from someone who has been in an abusive relationship, it is harder than it seems and it is very painful and in some cases its very dangerous to try and leave. We can try and get help from police but there is only so much that they can do and it wont always stop the abuser.
When we were smaller we were told..if he troubles you....he likes you... I've never been a victim....and I don't wish to....this is sad
A woman brought you into this world so you have absolutely NO right to disrespect one regardless of her actions.

Music plays a major role in a child's development.
I have gone through almost the same experience with my dad... Everything they're talking about happened to me.
