When John said “where the fuck HAVE I been?” I swooned lol
She plays a very attractive man
I almost needed a towel and a cigarette lol
😂😂😂😂@@suzbone
@savannahs8914 VERY
That was some baby making comment right there. 😂
"I don't wanna be uncomfortable to celebrate mother's day" is a bar.
OMG, for too long after I read your comment, I was thinking,
"I don't know, time alone in your favorite bar for mother's day would be kinda awesome"
Lol, I'm old. You youngsters and your lingo 😂
It should be an anthem!!
I melt every time he says "i have something planned... no not for you" we LOVE healthy boundaries
I would love a skit on how someone like Jennifer can actually make it right & actually be a good auntie without stepping over boundaries. Or what do you wish you knew back when you were 'Jennifer'?
Jennifer 👏 redemption 👏 arc!
Yesss I'd love if she got to reflect after John's talking-to, and would also be so nice for us to learn from her mistakes too on how to be more supportive. 😊
YAAAAS THIS IS PERFECT! The ending about her change in attitude really surprised me, and definitely a lot of us have to work hard to let our ego go and take lessons and grow from them. Definitely shorts about auntie and how she grows in her interactions with mom and the kids. But not like a shield from Barb, cause that’s not real life. Definitely mom is great at boundaries, but putting up boundaries are so exhausting whew! Maybe more interactions between Mom and Dad without topics relating to kids, even dad putting up boundaries or communicating 🥰
Yes! Ongoing 'soap' about the family interactions! It could go on forever! 😯
I am the anti-Jennifer. I want a relationship with my sister in laws so bad because I grew up with two younger brothers but my sister in laws already have big extended families and friend groups so they just don’t have time for me 😂😂😂😂 I have one female pal but I’d love a mom friend in the family
The "no I'm glad you brought this to my attention" sold me hard!! That is a man who loves his wife. He's human, he is bound to miss some things that go on, but now Shawna knows she can go to him about an issue and he will take it personally as a family mater and not just her complaining.
That was incredible. I gasped when Jennifer said she's just a fat mom who hates her kids. The audacity. 😂 John is the husband we all want, and that was the perfect ending. My mother and sister in laws are lovely, thank god, but I love this series.
John's firmness with his mother and righteous rage at his sister brought tears to my eyes. I LOVE his uncompromising support of his wife.
What an incredible series! You are really doing so much to bring attention to the problematic family dynamics that a mother has to endure after having children. Thank you!🙏🏼
no she isn't. people abuse you you get the hell away from them never let them near your children and get on with your life.
@@Scheherazade-wq1ve She is.
Abuse occurs on different levels, and someone or it can be corrected with some good communication and firm boundaries.
Other kinds can't be fixed and aren't healthy or safe to endure. Totally agree. We haven't seen my ILs in many years.
But in many families, a couple being a mutually supportive, loving, communicative team can really help.
I foolishly didn't tell my husband a lot of the abuse I endured during pregnancy....but once the babies were born, he couldn't not see it, and started drawing lines....and eventually broke all contact.
He loved this video series, he applauded John.
I just found you not that long ago. I love your videos. The rage you can make me feel and the joy when husband stands with wife.
Ahh haha love that, thank you so much! 💗
*“Jennifer . . . is ME”*
The soap opera drama thickens
I cried.
I wish all husbands/men would be that supportive and caring.
❤
Right?!
I'm a grandmother and try my best not to be a "Barb." I try to be the opposite of "Barb." May I say... you are as cute as a button, and all your videos are fantastic, from the content to the camera angles to the acting! Keep up the good work, Shawna. You're helping a lot of people!
The “I see you exchanging looks”. I really felt that
I love your skits! Thanks a ton for compliling them because I had no idea I was missing some moments!
Oh yay that’s a good sign!! I try to splice them a little to still have it seem like a whole story but yes a few moments here and there sometimes. Thanks for being here!! 💕
Yes I also didn't realise!
@@ShawnatheMom
Yep, I liked seeing a little more of Jennifer's surprise and shame when she realizes she's crossed a line! I definitely remember some moments like that as a young person, learning to be more compassionate and center myself less.
Didn't realize how much I needed to see the John intervention ❤❤❤❤
I love how Barb and Jennifer both just talk AT you and not to you, never actually answer your questions
story telling like this would absolutely be fun to see more of! Not just entertainment, but it also gives a lot of people a space to relate to and come together and share how we deal with family members like this
This should be a mandatory series for every couple to watch before getting married to know this is what a loving supportive couple looks like ! Or heck ! Counselors could use it as a visual tool for couples in need ! Absolutely love it !
Oh man, a series about how Barb got to jaded in the first place. We love our boundarycrossing, toxic parents even though we have to put up with being more emotionally mature but they also had a lot of messed up things and ideas forced on them that ultimately contributed to how they think and behave now. That would be a deep one!
This makes me miss my MIL.I remember one mothers day we were all sitting in a crowded restaurant with my daughter pouting and grumpy, and her biological grandchildren were screaming and hitting each other under the table, and her children were all desperately trying to look like they were having fun, she turned to me and whispered, "think anyone would notice if we crawled out the bathroom window?" 😆
That was soooooo satisfying!! It’s a bit sad how we have to look to RUclips to see examples of healthy and firm boundaries-setting; but RUclips is way better than not having these concrete examples, and trying to figure it out on our own, and gaslighting ourselves. Good job!!
I'm glad to hear your MIL and SIL are not that horrible!
Holy smokes, a husband standing up for his wife like that, he’ll be on his way to making baby number 3. 😅
Now.I want to see the end of all the other shorts too! You could begin by compiling the other videos into long form compilations like this until you know what you want to do
This Barb series is soo satisfying and validating! So many people deal with disrespect like this in so many ways so it's so cathartic to have these videos that release these built up emotional injustices in us xxxx
I’m a young person who’s like a decade away from having kids, but messy family drama is my fave kinds of stories to write about so your videos have become a great source for what motherhood is like ✍️
LONG FORM! LONG FORM! LONG FORM!!!! YOU ARE OUTSTANDING.... LOVE YOUR SHORTS AND NOW YOUR LONG FORMS!!! A BIT LATE BUT HAPPY BELATED MOTHER'S DAY!!! Hugs from Baltimore, Maryland!🥰
You're acting is getting so freakin' good! Character writing is on point!
Pretty sure the husband finally having enough and talking with his sister is what I'm gonna show future prospects on what I expect 😂
I think it's awesome you get to play characters where you can live out your inner pettiness and then live your normal life. I'm totally here for it!!
You did great. So many of us have endured so much crap in the name of family where we stood alone, didn't feel we could make and keep boundaries, have a voice and be respected.
The lying is such a big part of it because even when you do challenge stuff, they deny it and it's your word against theirs. And if your children's dad is a mamma's boy they just won't side with you regardless.
That was so nice to have a full story and also to get a bit of you and your own commentary on your characters! I would love more of this, and more just from you and your thoughts on the things you make on here 🥰
Thanks for showing us the real you. I absolutely love your shorts. You're fantastic. So talented as a writer and an actor
LETS GO JOHN!!! Thank goodness!
Omg this was the best! I love when John stood up for you!!!❤❤ it just brings the stress of motherhood down a few notches when hubby is in your corner 😊
We get to see the lovely lady past the collarbone! You look lovely, Mama! Not a mom yet but a mom-ish person and I love your content to help me sympathize with new moms and my own mothers experience 😁
I've been more invested in these 6 minutes of content over the last week or so than I have been in most movies over the last year. This is EXCELLENT storytelling. Keep going, girl, you have a natural talent for this stuff.
I am sighing with ALL the relief at this epilogue. If I had to have that interaction with family members, I would dissolve.
It's always super to see someone putting the bullies in their place. Just because someone has more time and energy doesn't mean everyone does or anyone owes any of their time and effort.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, you are amazing! This series is my personal favorite!
We love this series too!!!! Thank you for bring laughter, tears, understanding, and truth, to being a mom. ❤️
I love the shorts! So happy I found this complete long video with all of them in context.
Everytime I hear this, I find it totally outrageous that the daughter in law is to plan for mother's day for her MIL, when MIL has two kids, and daughter in law has her own mother somewhere - and IS a mother!!! SO messed up and so ignorant by in-law-family.
I hope you will do more of these!
Yep… Boundaries that feel good, and are safe, strong, life-affirming and light-filled, just becomes this magnificent crucible for healing, resilience, learning and growth , loving connections, authenticity, and masterful contributions to wellbeing. Such good work you are doing!!!
I love how you clarified who the characters are at the end. And I can totally feel who John is through your acting haha. I hope he's as amazing as you act him out to be. Go John!
Yeah. I remember *BC* (before children) when I would walk in peoples homes with children and think "omg, why is it so messy, why don't they do their dishes". Then I had children... *end of story*
Suddenly, I understood!
I just love this series! Thank you for making me giggle and self reflect!
I'm a 38 year old divorced gay guy with no kids and have the least invasive family ever-- in other words, I really can't relate to any of your stuff on a personal level-- but your videos are some of my absolute favorite content! And you seem like you must be just such a nice person! 🥰🥰🥰
Just wanted to let you know. I'm totally here for anything you share!
I could sob over this, i feel so seen 😅 This is perfect and im so glad you make content ❤️ absolutely let us know when you decide to dance 💃🎉
It felt so good to hear the husband take charge
Never once in all the years I was married to my son’s father did he stand up for me. He would run and hide and just let me take the shit thrown. I’m glad there are better men out there for the lucky women that find them. Hold them close, cherish them.
You deserved better then, and I hope you have it now.
You're so talented! I believe each and every character you portray and feel the emotions. GREAT JOB!
Good mother-in-laws are a blessing!
I’m so here for longer form content. Your stuff is refreshing, creative, funny, and realistic.
This is stellar. Thank you for adding the endings and putting them together. Yes, please more long form
“Le sigh”
“Helloooo, Jennifer😐”
“Yaaaaaay John!”
😂😂😂
I love your subject matter and your acting ability!! Excellent job, Miss Thing! Blessings to you and your family ❤️
This series is what prompted me to subscribe! More MIL and SIL interactions and repercussions of said interactions would be great! 😊
Great series! Love that John had your back and told his family what's what. Looking forward to more stories.
I need a WHOLE PLAYLIST of all your mother in law stuff cause it cracks me up
Even though I watched all the shorts, it was great seeing them altogether. Also started following you after seeing the short where John calls his mom. What a boss.
If your husband responds this way, he is such a gem 😊❤ Love this for you!!!
I've seen these in short forums but still watched it in full. Absolutely love it.
Yay!! So excited to see long form! Could you think about doing a series on trying to conceive with complications? I’ve found that people say the weirdest off the wall things to me as time goes on and we continue our journey to hopefully a rainbow baby. As an aspiring mother I’d love to see something that represents that process. There are Barbs and Jennifer aplenty in that theme as well! “Have you tried stressing less?” Is my personal favorite.
I would love a full skit of Barb trying to force her way through delivery nurses and John being an absolute rock. I think even Jennifer would be appalled lol Best part is momma doesn't know the whole time ☺️
You put into very simple, easy to understand terms, the really hard to emphasize parts of motherhood and thank you so much for that 😊❤️
OMG John is going to be SUCH an amazing dad for these kids! And I love so much that you put your pre-kid self in. Not every person humbled by actually having kids is honest enough to admit their uninformed,shitty behavior. Keep up the great content!
OMG this makes so much more sense with the complete endings! Thank you!! Love the series and I subscribed because of this set of videos. If you ever need stories, come my way. I have 32 years worth of MIL stories.
I loved this compilation and backstory! More compilation of maybe all the supportive people in New Mom’s life. Those are the loveliest skits.
I want to see John making the boundaries with his family in the beginning 👏👏👏
I think your vids are outlining exactly what a lot of us go through so Thank you
I am just obsessed with your creativityyyyy😍 you're so real and down to Earth, and just appreciate it!❤
Girl! One mom to the next just keep doing this. This is great a combo of all your videos. 🎉👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
LOVED the long form ❤
Daaaang, breaking new ground. Long form, long form, long form!
Thank you very much for posting the full skit - very enjoyable to watch - wish all husbands were like 'John'
Thank you for this.
Shawna, thank you.
The part where the main character is having words put in her mouth, and everything being twisted.....and then presented as the "other", oversensitive, the Problem because she doesn't leap up and do whatever she's told to do....so painfully accurate.
I showed the shorts to my husband on mother's day, and he smiled and approved of John. He went full NC with my ILs when our kids were small. He sees so many people in our lives who put themselves and their spouses through misery because they're afraid to express boundaries with parents who need them.
(In our case, communication never did much, and it finally became clear to him that they were going to not only treat us badly, but play the same manipulative, abusive head games with our kids that they had done as parents....for example, when we were pregnant with our twins, as first time grandparents, they were literally looking at the ultra sounds and deciding which would be the "good" one, calling the baby by his siblings name, and which would be the one causing all the problems, calling that baby by his name.
Yeah.
They also spent my whole pregnancy telling me to have two boys, no girls, because "girls are such a hassle" "girls are all problems" and my personally favorite, "nobody likes girls".
Ugh....there was just so much.
So, so much.)
Anyway...
Seeing a content creator actually model someone directly communicating and creating boundaries with his(or her) family for emotionally abusing their partner is AMAZING and so worthwhile.
Thank you,
and happy belated Mother's Day!
I love these shorts, they heal my inner child ❤️
Love your videos. Longer compilations are great! ❤
Love this series! Your mom videos make me feel so seen! Thank you ❤️
TY for clarifying your characters. I have been seriously concerned about the toxicity of John’s family. Now that I know where those horrible people come from, I can relax and put my car back in the garage because I has seriously considering riding down there to your rescue! ❤❤❤❤❤.
Happy Mother’s Day! 🌹🌹🌹
If my husband ever defeated me like this… wow. Just for him to understand. You are truly amazing!!! Please more long form content. Here for it 🤩
You have made me feel so seen with so many of these skits. Thank you so much for every skit you do because I feel better knowing that it's not just me. Also I feel like you would be such a freaking fun friend and I would love to give you a hug one day
This is awesome. Thankfully, things with my in laws simmered WAY down after I started having kids and things are so much better than they were. It's good. I know lots of people have conflicts with their in-laws and this helps to show that those people are not alone in their struggles. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the compilation! Im still sticking with wanting to see John go off on Mommy Dearest in person though 😂. I think John would live to tell his mom off more thoughly after everything she has done. Plus, hes gotta still be riding the high of putting Jennifer in her place lol.
REALLY good content. Helpful in so many ways. Empowering of beautifully sensitive and strongly positive communication. Everything feels doable, manageable, when we can clearly communicate with this level of skill, insight, understanding, and kindness. Such good work you are doing!!!
I. LOVE. THIS! All of this! I love the behind the scenes bits and your creativitiy and everything about it! More, please!
I literally try to watch your videos everyday ! You could make a Q/A with your husband, or you could continue to make series into long formed videos. You could make guides on what to expect from kids, or having them, or how to prepare to deliver. Or you can just talk about you! you're very entertaining and I love everything you make
Man I love this series too!!!! 💖 this is so relatable and, like, I actually learn from it
Your acting skills are really next level. I get so sucked into these sketches I forget it’s all the same person, and I know Jon has his own fan girl club. 😂
Ideas for skits:
1) Disagreements on screen time for kids
2) Barb's birthday party 😂
3) Jennifer gets pregnant 😂
4) breastfeeding in public: shamed and complimented/praised
5) gotta do a father's day skit too for John!
Love the hubby😅
Shawna I love you! I’d love to see more of these longer form videos in which you compile videos that go together in short little series line this one! So fun and easier to turn on and watch all together than search through shorts that don’t provide the full shot context. Like seeing this was way better than the cutoff shorts so I’m happy to see even full length skits that are even a bit longer than a short posted here too! You’re one of my favourite creators on the platform so please keep making content 🌸
Your skits are awesome and the fun is carried across/through the screen! Thanks for sharing your wisdom nuggets and telatable content in an entertaining form! ❤😊
I would love long form content! Your sense of humor is awesome! I enjoy your videos so much! Thank you! ❤❤❤❤❤
I loved every second of this.
Please someone hire this talented human to create something! Idc what it is I will watch it! Also so would everyone else!😆
10/10 will watch again and again!
I like your content and I like the Mother's Day, skits and I'm glad I got the long form and I'm glad I subscribed.You are awesome and I wish you and your family.Nothing below peace joy and happiness
Yes please post more of the storylines all together!!! I loved it!!!
I love it all. I would love to see anything you have on a husband fending for his wife. Being on her side. Not getting defensive but showing tenderness. All the things. Thank you for what you do!
I LOVE your content and your stories! Please do more full videos! ❤
Omg I love your content! I would love to see maybe a Q&A or a video on beliefs you had before vs after becoming a mom! Much love from Indiana ❤
I’m so glad to finally see the ending. I have watched most if not all. And it kept ending before the real ending.
If all husbands would do this, or if all mother-in-laws would act like humans, my experience would negate none do. It would be so much easier.
I can’t begin to tell stories about the “ women “ I’ve had to deal with. The main reason I will never ever be that mother -in - law.
I have even gone as far as letting my son-in-law know, if I cross a boundary, to just let me know and that will be the end of that.
I also watch myself like a hawk, if ask for input I give it, if not I keep my mouth shut.
I had my children, I’m grandma, I don’t have the right to impose my will or my way on anyone. They are adults.
I get to just spend time with them, not impose on them.
I am grateful for my time with all of them, I know, time is precious, and mine isn’t infinite, so I want there to be harmony . I want my love ones to remember their time with me as happy, not conflicted.
I’m not a mom, but I appreciate your content so much. I’m a married gen-xer living abroad. It’s a challenging situation that would be impossible without a supportive partner.
You are honestly so talented. ❤️
