    The pain and anger in your moms eyes when you said, “It took someone throwing a hammer at me to realize it” 🥺 We’re all so happy you’re in a happy, healthy, and loving relationship now.

    I have literally never just had a casual conversation with my mom...about life, about anything. The dynamic with my parents was very much that my existence was to make their life easier by doing things for them - cooking, cleaning, watching my siblings etc. My feelings were never a consideration. I love watching you and your mom interact. It shows me that it is possible to have a healthy relationship between parents and children

    Parenting is hard - no doubt about it. But, I agree with your mom that it is so fun to see your children’s life unfold and the things you get to do through them. I have gone places, gone to events and had many life experiences because of where my children lived, studied, worked and who are their friends.

    The hurt and pain you feel as a mum is so intense. I'm only 2 years in but already a surprising amount resonates. My daughter had anaphylaxis and seeing her go through that, I wish I could take it from her. The thought of her going through what you went through Michel, I can't imagine.

    I love mama Janse! 🥰 Honestly, I wasn't super excited to watch this one because I don't have kids or anything, but didn't want to not watch it either. Man, I could listen to her advice all day. I love that she wasn't ashamed of reading books/trying to learn how to raise kids. It shows that she genuinely wanted to do a good job as a parent, which is evident by both you and your sister. Btw, your mom and sister have the same laugh! It's adorable!

    Thank you Mama Janse (from this 51-year old Mama who lost her Mama when I was 20 yrs old). I have a 19-year old daughter and we have always had a close bond. I agree with so much of what you’ve said. Be interested in what they are interested in. Let them lead. Love them exactly as they are! Listen & be present.
    As my daughter struggled through her teen years I always regrouped and approached from a place of kindness…seems simple, but it takes intention. I reminded myself, and still do, that I am building a person. I’ve definitely been a spontaneous parent….why the heck not?
    I watched my Dad lose his wife/my mama (love of his life & mother of their four daughters) to ALS and then had to watch him also lose my youngest sister to ALS. I know how I felt with those losses, but watching his sorrow changed me forever. I understand wanting to take on someone’s pain for them.
    Michel, thank you for sharing your Mom with us! 😘

    I agree with your Mom on not paying for chores. My oldest, I did not pay either and for the longest time I always was asked how come he couldnt have money like everyone else. Now that he's grown and has his own place it funny to hear all the pride he has to keep up with all the normal chores.

    I too went through infertility. We were married 6 years before kids. Their is also 7 years between my daughters bc of infertility. I had 2 miscarriages as well. It was very hard and raw pain at times but I feel in hindsight that maybe I went through it to help some other friends in the last few years. I wouldn't wish infertility on anyone bc its so so hard and emotionally draining but I'm glad I could be a sense of support to others so they had support like I did. You and your mom were great!! 💜

There were no expectations.. just love! My mom and I are SO close and hang out all the time.

    Your Mom is just the sweetest! My baby sister had often wished we had recorded some of our Mom’s stories about her growing up. Now I’m wishing I had recorded more of us theee sisters on our little things we had done together as they are both no longer here. I am thankful I still have my one sister to chat and hang with every couple of years.
    Your Mom is just the best for doing this and sharing with us a little more about you and your younger self. It’s tough parenting and watching your child (adult child) deal with heartbreak and mental health issues❤️ Kudos to Momma Janse for being such a sport. Sending you both loads of love and hugs ❤️

    No joke, just as I started watching this video I knew that I would gain some knowledge of how to be a good mom one day to my future child (hopefully daughter lol). I was right. Your mom created one of the most relatable, kind, vulnerable, beautiful, and hilarious youtubers that I have come across. Also, your mom's advice about springing on plans to kids last minute to make you look more fun and spontaneous was SO helpful LOL! Thank you both for this video.
