  Speaker 1: We got a question in for our American mama's. Dear mama's,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: did you see the story of the mom bullying a
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: school board member?
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Well, let's ask our American mamas.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: And joining is now our American mama's turning Outville and
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Kimberly Burlison. So I did not see this story, but
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: apparently there's there's some mom that decided to bully a
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: school board members. What's the story now?
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: Okay, so it's sort of really not like that, But
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: this mom has a daughter who is being bullied for
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: weeks and weeks and weeks, okay, and which.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: By the way, some people say they're being bullied and
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: it's a one time thing. By definition, bullying requires multiple
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: events to happen for it to actually be considered actual bullying.
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: Otherwise it's just rude, right, exactly, Well, she was bullied
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: for real then, okay, for weeks and weeks and weeks.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: She would you tell the teacher reported to the teacher,
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: who reported to the principal. They would talk to the girls,
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: and you know that whole thing. Well, the main bully
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: one day, her father abandoned the family, left them. So
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: the girl that had been bullied for weeks and weeks
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: and weeks. Yeah, she said a very cruel thing. But
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: she said it to the bully. She said, your dad
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: left because of you. You do know that, right, because
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: you're so mean? Your dad left because of you. Well,
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: the bully goes crying to the principal. You know how
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: horrific was that? And the principal agreed, of course it
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: was a terrible thing to say.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: So he calls the mom in.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: She comes in and he tells her the situation, and
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: she says, yeah, I will handle that.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: That was very awful, what a terrible thing.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: These are the same girls that have been bullying my daughter,
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: so she probably just had this pin up stuff, so
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: she wanted to make them feel what she's been feeling
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: for weeks. Well, missus so and so this is unacceptable.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: She will be suspended. This is beyond the pill. This
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: is the one time occurrence, but it was beyond. What
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: she said was so beyond the pill. And she said, okay,
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: so I got it. What does my daughter need to
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: do from this point because she will continue to get bullied,
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: especially now, she will be continue to be bullied by
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: these girls. So what do you expect her to do?
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: And he said, number one, do not retaliate. Number two,
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: report it to the teacher, who will report it to me,
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: and we will take care of it. We will talk
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: to them and we will handle this. We will try
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: to squash this. And she said, okay, your big dumba,
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: all right, you big fat, bald loser who can't even
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: get it up, Okay, all right, And he said, missus Blaze,
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: this is unacceptable.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: And she goid, oh, what's the problem.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: What's the problem you big fat you know, just own
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: and own just calling him names, I mean, something we
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: would never do. And the daughter's retelling stories. She said,
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: she was going, what's happened to my mom? Like, my
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: mom doesn't talk like that? And he said this is
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: unacceptable and she said, oh, but this is what you
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: want my daughter to do.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Just take it.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm bullied you just then, and you're supposed
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: to just take it right and report it to whoever
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: you want to. And you're going to you know, you're
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: going to talk to me again. And he said, okay,
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: I see your point, because it was done to him, right.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: And the daughter who's relaying this story on X she
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: said it was such a less First of all, she
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: felt like her mom was a bad a She's like,
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: oh my gosh, who does that?
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly exactly.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: And then secondly, her point was it took him feeling
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: it himself in order for him to see that she
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: has been reporting it. But they're saying some very cruel
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: things to her. It may not be that her father
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: abandoned her, but it's you know, relentless bullying about the
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: way she looks, the way she smells, like everything you
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: can do to bully.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: And I just thought that was so I thought, wow.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: You know, there's different parenting styles, which I love, but
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: for this particular generation of teachers and principles, sometimes it
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: takes that.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it takes that.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: So it is kind of funny how sometimes when when
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: you turn around on some people in power, they do
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: change their tune. When when I was a child, the
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: schools said, hey, do you mind if we paddle your child?
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: And my father went to the principal and said, sure,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: but as soon as you're done, I get to take
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: the paddle to you. Now, my dad was a big dude.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: The principal apparently didn't want to be paddled by my father,
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: So I never got paddled by the school but it's
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: one of those where, Okay, we'll turn this around on you.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: What do you think And it wasn't until that point
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: was made to them in a personal way that they
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: actually got it.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, here's the deal. Back in our days, we're
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: gen X.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, if the teacher got onto us, or if we
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: were if we were confronted, our parents were confronted and
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: said that we were the bullies, or that we did this.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: Our parents took the side of the teacher, of the principals.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Some people's parents, yeah.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: Most parents.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: Most parents said hey, maybe you can't. Maybe I don't
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: want you whipping them right, let me handle it. I
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: guarantee you what they're going.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: To get when they get home.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: It's like, you know, for us taking to you know,
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: making away something I loved or whatever, and being so
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: ashamed and let me know how terrible that, you know whatever.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: It was.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: So it became this trend to not only believe your
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: child over the adult. But I'm not only gonna believe
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: my child. I'm gonna call you a liar. I'm gonna
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: want you fired, I'm gonna want to make sure that
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: you're punished for this. I'm gonna out you I'm gonna
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: make sure everybody knows when now teachers don't even get
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: involved when there's fights in their classroom. They're so scared
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: to do anything because they've been so punished that they
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: don't know what to do. So to have it done
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: this way, it's like, Okay, this gives parents another way
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: of handling it.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: And I do feel sorry for the teachers.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: I do feel sorry for the principal because it's kind
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: of like we've come to this place in society.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: You don't really know what to do.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it depends upon you. Kind of damned if
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: you do. Damned if you don't know some of these things,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: because I think we've gotten rid of a little bit
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: of common sense. Because there's the right way to deal
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: with the bully, and I'm not sure it's tattling. If
