- 1:18Speaker 1: Is Lirato's voice.
- 1:19Speaker 6: Note Anyway, So I ordered a cake for Couma's based
- 1:25Speaker 6: day at some bakery, but I ordered it over the phone,
- 1:29Speaker 6: and I went to go collect this cake and they
- 1:32Speaker 6: spelled his name wrong.
- 1:34Speaker 1: They refuse to fix that cake.
- 1:37Speaker 6: Certainly I would not spell my child's name wrong over
- 1:40Speaker 6: the phone or anywhere else. They are so I never
- 1:43Speaker 6: used this speakery they are.
- 1:46Speaker 1: I'm yeah, hmm.
- 1:52Speaker 2: I'd be upset if I was the mom, though.
- 1:56Speaker 1: Justified, But you can't be upset for too long.
- 2:00Speaker 3: It's a mistake. It's fine, The cake is still delicious.
- 2:03Speaker 3: Let your child take the cake to school. Everyone around
- 2:06Speaker 3: your child knows that that's not his name. That's funny,
- 2:09Speaker 3: how hard, and let's move on. Honestly, guys, the world
- 2:12Speaker 3: is not going to end because our children's lives are
- 2:14Speaker 3: not perfect.
- 2:15Speaker 1: Stop this thing.
- 2:17Speaker 4: I suppose you can take on the bakery because that's
- 2:19Speaker 4: what you're saying. Just message them and say, hey, guys,
- 2:21Speaker 4: this is amaking. But there's no you can't change it.
- 2:23Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
- 2:25Speaker 7: My thing is, it can't be such a big thing
- 2:28Speaker 7: that it ruins your child's experience of their birthday. So
- 2:31Speaker 7: there's a mistake. But is that now going to be
- 2:34Speaker 7: what we talk about on the day.
- 2:37Speaker 3: It wouldn't be the first time anyone had a mistake
- 2:39Speaker 3: done on.
- 2:42Speaker 1: The order.
- 2:44Speaker 3: Do you know what I'm saying? And your child will
- 2:46Speaker 3: have a story. I mean I remember a few years
- 2:47Speaker 3: ago my child wanted Manchester City cupcakes and the bakery,
- 2:52Speaker 3: not me. The bakery didn't Manchester United cupcakes.
- 2:55Speaker 2: This was like two years ago.
- 2:56Speaker 3: Yeah, I remember that, and it's a plausible mistake. It
- 2:59Speaker 3: can happen because the bakery you heard, Manchester, same city.
- 3:03Speaker 3: You see what I'm saying. Do you know who's still
- 3:06Speaker 3: fine today, breathing, walking around, thriving, having himself a good
- 3:09Speaker 3: old time.
- 3:10Speaker 1: Ye, my son nothing was broken.
- 3:13Speaker 4: Yeah, and I mean he pointed it out immediately. Yes,
- 3:16Speaker 4: but I'm sure he went to school with us and
- 3:18Speaker 4: he was like, hey, guys, even at.
- 3:20Speaker 3: School, it was the thing. It was a conversation. It
- 3:22Speaker 3: was funny and he kept on telling you can have
- 3:24Speaker 3: the cupcake. But remember I don't support United, I support
- 3:26Speaker 3: man City. I just and I don't know if some
- 3:30Speaker 3: parents will agree with me. This or disagree, and this
- 3:32Speaker 3: is I suppose that's a conversation at the hadea is
- 3:35Speaker 3: we need to raise our kids to be okay with
- 3:38Speaker 3: flaws and okay with mistakes.
- 3:40Speaker 1: And you just brushed off your shoulder and you move on.
- 3:44Speaker 3: You know, when we talk about resilience, we're not just
- 3:46Speaker 3: talking about oh, you didn't make the cricket team. Even
- 3:49Speaker 3: things like this that are supposed to be perfect. It's okay, guys.
- 3:53Speaker 3: Do you know what's nice?
- 3:54Speaker 1: The cake? That's still nice? Step some candles on the end,
- 3:56Speaker 1: let's sing for you.
- 3:57Speaker 7: Because also, I mean, how our parents react or response
- 4:02Speaker 7: to situations also influences how we do the same later.
- 4:07Speaker 1: So is everything a crisis?
- 4:11Speaker 2: For example?
- 4:11Speaker 7: I can't function around people with everything is a crisis.
- 4:16Speaker 4: Yeah, and you're having constant mouthdowns about everything. I think
- 4:19Speaker 4: that's maybe this is part of the conversation, right, Susiness
- 4:22Speaker 4: Mom is obviously very upset about the becase's upset. She's yeah, right,
- 4:26Speaker 4: And but is it that have you I think maybe
- 4:28Speaker 4: as parents, have you caught yourself in a moment where
- 4:30Speaker 4: you go, this is actually a teaching moment for my
- 4:33Speaker 4: child because the way I handle the situation is going
- 4:36Speaker 4: to inform what they see.
- 4:38Speaker 2: Kids mimic what you do. So if you're.
- 4:40Speaker 4: Anxious all the time, most kids are going to be
- 4:43Speaker 4: anxious all the time. Isn't that that's how it works?
- 4:45Speaker 2: Right?
- 4:45Speaker 3: Or if you want everything to be perfect all the time.
- 4:48Speaker 3: Do you know who your kids are not going to
- 4:50Speaker 3: go to when they've made a mistake?
- 4:51Speaker 2: You right, because they're scared.
- 4:54Speaker 3: Because you had a meltdown about the wrong spelling of
- 4:56Speaker 3: a name. I know your name, you know your name,
- 4:59Speaker 3: your friends know your name. Yes, the bakery is wrong.
- 5:01Speaker 3: And I think maybe the bakery of you know, kind
- 5:05Speaker 3: of thrown in muffins or cupcakes or scorns to be like, oh,
- 5:08Speaker 3: we so sorry our mistake type of thing.
- 5:10Speaker 1: But to have a.
- 5:11Speaker 3: Complete meltdown, and now you want to cancel and throw
- 5:14Speaker 3: away the entire cake and wrap the party, and your
- 5:17Speaker 3: child is watching this.
- 5:18Speaker 7: I mean, we're still throwing tomatoes at the bakery owner,
- 5:21Speaker 7: just not in front of the kids exactly.
- 5:23Speaker 3: Oh one one eight thirty eight nine four seven. As
- 5:27Speaker 3: a parent, what would you do if the bakery missed.
- 5:31Speaker 1: Your child's cake up like this? Right? And also, you.
- 5:34Speaker 3: Don't have the luxury of time. There's the luxurary to
- 5:37Speaker 3: go to another bakery, you know.
- 5:39Speaker 4: Yeah, well that's the conundrum here.
- 5:41Speaker 3: Yes, it's like what moment, what are you using this
- 5:44Speaker 3: moment to do in your household?
- 5:46Speaker 2: Exactly?
- 5:46Speaker 3: And I mean I can you may think that we
- 5:49Speaker 3: are all up against anyone wants to complain, but I
- 5:52Speaker 3: want to hear you out.
- 5:53Speaker 1: I'm just relieved.
- 5:54Speaker 7: I grew up in the era and bloom contained where
- 5:55Speaker 7: your cake had a generic happy birthday and came in
- 5:58Speaker 7: a Castle Laga box And that's what you.
- 6:01Speaker 1: Took to all those flat boxes. No one was off, dude, because.
- 6:05Speaker 3: You know what, the cakes, the cakes, the cakes, the cake.
- 6:07Speaker 1: Those kids won't care. No one is looking to.
- 6:09Speaker 3: Be like, hey, it's cherry with the J, not with
- 6:12Speaker 3: the G.
- 6:13Speaker 1: Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah, I just really
- 6:15Speaker 1: think we we.
- 6:17Speaker 3: Over what making mountains out of mole hills?
- 6:21Speaker 6: Is?
- 6:21Speaker 2: That?
- 6:21Speaker 1: Is that the saying?
- 6:22Speaker 2: That's it?
- 6:22Speaker 3: And this is why we're raising people who like strive
- 6:25Speaker 3: for this perfection And you can strive for perfection, but
- 6:28Speaker 3: I think this is one of those things that do
- 6:31Speaker 3: not matter. And I suppose that's the question I'm asking you.
- 6:34Speaker 1: This is my opinion.
- 6:35Speaker 2: Yeah, is this is this worth a mount on the
- 6:37Speaker 2: cake side.
- 6:38Speaker 1: Does it matter?
- 6:39Speaker 2: Does it matter?
- 6:40Speaker 1: Oh one one eighty eight thirty eight nine four seven.
- 6:43Speaker 3: Lolato's got us talking here on a Thursday morning, Send
- 6:46Speaker 3: us a voice noted zero eight four double zero double
- 6:49Speaker 3: zero nine four seven.
- 6:50Speaker 1: Does it matter any? So?
- 6:55Speaker 6: I ordered a cake for Couma's birth day at some bakery,
- 6:59Speaker 6: but I ordered it over the phone. And I went
- 7:02Speaker 6: to go collect this cake, and they spelled his name wrong.
- 7:07Speaker 1: They refuse to fix that cake.
- 7:09Speaker 6: Surely I would not spell my taild's name wrong over
- 7:12Speaker 6: the phone or anywhere else. They are so, I'll never
- 7:16Speaker 6: use this speakery. They are, I'm yeah. So I ordered
- 7:23Speaker 6: a cake for Comma's birthday at some bakery, but I
- 7:26Speaker 6: ordered it over the phone, and I went to go
- 7:30Speaker 6: collect this cake, and they spelled his name wrong.
- 7:34Speaker 1: They refused to fix that cake.
- 7:37Speaker 6: Surely I would not spell my tild's name wrong over
- 7:40Speaker 6: the phone or anywhere else. They are so slack, I
- 7:43Speaker 6: will never use this bakery. They are, I'm yeah.
- 7:48Speaker 8: This thing where customers will call or send a voice
- 7:52Speaker 8: note instead of writing what they want for their birthday cake.
- 7:57Speaker 8: Such things, such mistakes can happen because I'm I mean,
- 8:00Speaker 8: we don't know how to spell each mail's name.
- 8:02Speaker 3: No, guys, then what is going to become of the
- 8:05Speaker 3: world If we keep saying it's not the first time
- 8:08Speaker 3: a mistake it No, people must do their job right,
- 8:10Speaker 3: and that's just what it is.
- 8:11Speaker 6: Well, if it's just the name, but the cake is
- 8:14Speaker 6: not a disaster, then I don't think I would be upset.
- 8:17Speaker 1: My friend has a daughter named Peyton.
- 8:19Speaker 8: For her birthday, she ordered a cake and she instructed
- 8:22Speaker 8: them to please write Peyton in the middle.
- 8:25Speaker 1: They wrote out the words Peyton in the middle on
- 8:29Speaker 1: the cake. She's the new malcome in the middle. We
- 8:31Speaker 1: saw all her Peyton in the middle.
- 8:36Speaker 3: And now we have a story for the rest of
- 8:38Speaker 3: our lives.
- 8:43Speaker 7: The lady who said, if we write everything off, because
- 8:45Speaker 7: you know, everyone makes a mistake, what's going to be
- 8:48Speaker 7: kind of the world?
- 8:49Speaker 3: I hear you, sus Well, the standard's gonna go. Good morning,
- 8:54Speaker 3: guts a incenturion.
- 8:55Speaker 1: Welcome to Annel in the club.
- 8:57Speaker 9: Good morning in the club. How are you, Cagi, I'm
- 9:01Speaker 9: all thanks about you.
- 9:02Speaker 1: Talk to us.
- 9:02Speaker 3: What do you think about this, this mistake that the
- 9:04Speaker 3: bakery made.
- 9:06Speaker 9: Yeah, look for me. A name is something that is
- 9:10Speaker 9: of paramount important because if you're identity and how easily,
- 9:14Speaker 9: especially when you're talking about kits and stuff. Can that
- 9:16Speaker 9: turn into a bully. Somebody might come and say that
- 9:19Speaker 9: maybe you saw somebody's ky because it's not about the
- 9:22Speaker 9: right way. But then the cluster of the matter for
- 9:25Speaker 9: me is the identity, because that is something that you
- 9:27Speaker 9: cat and it should be valued. I think their cakeshop
- 9:30Speaker 9: should have tried to make an amense. I mean if
- 9:33Speaker 9: we say, like it's a mistake, for instance, and we're
- 9:35Speaker 9: just gonna move on nobody. Let's let's say you use
- 9:38Speaker 9: that tribal agency, for instance, to book a flight somewhere,
- 9:41Speaker 9: and then they get your idea number, just that one
- 9:43Speaker 9: number of you think at the flight they're when I say,
- 9:45Speaker 9: I just and if they get on the flight, no,
- 9:48Speaker 9: you're going to have to suffer. And what if you're
- 9:49Speaker 9: missing a meeting. So a name, for me is something
- 9:53Speaker 9: of high value that you've got to write to be
- 9:56Speaker 9: upset about it, but for the rest of your life
- 9:59Speaker 9: as well. But it's something that tend be six. Let
- 10:02Speaker 9: it be six instead of saying it's just a small mistake,
- 10:05Speaker 9: and then it's not a small mistake. But it's my identity.
- 10:08Speaker 9: This is it's me that's not that's me. It's attached
- 10:11Speaker 9: to me and it should be right.
- 10:13Speaker 7: Oh, you must hate working in corporate where you'll type
- 10:15Speaker 7: your name out in full and someone will still call
- 10:18Speaker 7: you the wrong thing when they reply. Excuse me, you
- 10:20Speaker 7: typed it in full and you send it from the
- 10:22Speaker 7: email address that says.
- 10:24Speaker 1: At seven. Oh, try ten belition, and then they'll still
- 10:27Speaker 1: come back.
- 10:28Speaker 3: But now that is I absolutely agree with you, right,
- 10:31Speaker 3: And I also believe that you know, two things can
- 10:33Speaker 3: be right at the same time. Because a child's identity
- 10:37Speaker 3: is their name.
- 10:38Speaker 1: Absolutely correct.
- 10:39Speaker 3: But if a cake is going to crumble your child's identity,
- 10:42Speaker 3: you as a parent haven't done enough to solidify your
- 10:45Speaker 3: child within their identity, right.
- 10:49Speaker 9: I hear that, But how old are they are? They
- 10:51Speaker 9: emotionally strongly because it's a child at the end of
- 10:54Speaker 9: the day, it's not an adult that can just try
- 10:58Speaker 9: and get over it. It's a child, and you can
- 11:00Speaker 9: easily berate that child by that. What you perceived to
- 11:04Speaker 9: be to be smaller than children are not the same.
- 11:07Speaker 9: I mean I grew up playing in sports and they
- 11:09Speaker 9: spelled my surname Maubert daily and they spelled it in
- 11:12Speaker 9: all different way. They ll make a gisu and all
- 11:16Speaker 9: of that. But there's other people that you know, they
- 11:20Speaker 9: actually they take it to hat because they're not felt
- 11:23Speaker 9: the fame. So we mustn't take it for granted that
- 11:26Speaker 9: after a child, you must just you know, they'll they'll
- 11:29Speaker 9: get over it and all of that. It doesn't happen.
- 11:31Speaker 9: It might be a scarf for the future and lack
- 11:33Speaker 9: of pay. If it tends into bullying, it could just know.
- 11:36Speaker 3: But that's the bullying thing is weird for me, because now,
- 11:40Speaker 3: why must we do things so that our children don't
- 11:42Speaker 3: get bullied as opposed to as addressing that the bullies do?
- 11:46Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
- 11:47Speaker 9: You need to control the controllable.
- 11:50Speaker 3: But and there we go as much as and this
- 11:54Speaker 3: is as a parent, you say, hey, broh me. I
- 11:56Speaker 3: tried everything I could. I told those people this is
- 11:58Speaker 3: your name and this is what they spelled. Next time,
- 12:00Speaker 3: we'll definitely make sure that we write it out, we
- 12:03Speaker 3: send it in an email or takes or whatever. But
- 12:06Speaker 3: at this point in time, I gave your name over
- 12:08Speaker 3: the phone, so one of us made a mistake. They
- 12:10Speaker 3: say it's me, I say it's them. You explain that
- 12:13Speaker 3: to your child.
- 12:13Speaker 2: You luck.
- 12:14Speaker 1: But at the end of the day. Do not we
- 12:15Speaker 1: have here a cake, let's ehat the cake.
- 12:18Speaker 9: I think we're expecting too much of a child to
- 12:20Speaker 9: just think that they can understand.
- 12:22Speaker 1: Yes, but that's why you are parents. That's why you're there.
- 12:25Speaker 1: That's why you're there.
- 12:27Speaker 9: I'm a parent, but I'm not dead. So I've gone
- 12:30Speaker 9: through lives and I've seen things, and I understand there's
- 12:33Speaker 9: some things that I can handle it in a certain way.
- 12:35Speaker 9: I'm a parent, yes, yes.
- 12:36Speaker 3: But your children, your children will be alarmed if you
- 12:40Speaker 3: are alarmed, if you the way you you must see
- 12:43Speaker 3: monkey see monkey do if you if you have a
- 12:46Speaker 3: meltdown over something, your child is going to learn to
- 12:48Speaker 3: have a meltdown over those things. If you show them that, oh,
- 12:52Speaker 3: there are mistakes in the world, we're gonna take this
- 12:53Speaker 3: within our stride.
- 12:56Speaker 1: Are they wrong? Absolutely? You know. Do you have a
- 12:58Speaker 1: right to take this up with them? Absolutely?
- 13:00Speaker 3: But even your behavior in how you take it up
- 13:04Speaker 3: and how you react to add to adversity is what
- 13:07Speaker 3: your kids are going to grow up to do. You
- 13:09Speaker 3: can't be like a militant about everything that goes wrong
- 13:12Speaker 3: in your child's life, because you're going to raise children.
- 13:14Speaker 1: Who are militant about everything.
- 13:17Speaker 9: So it's not everything. It is this particular things, not
- 13:20Speaker 9: like identities. You spoke about Manchester city and Manchester na
- 13:23Speaker 9: It is fine. It's not my name Manchester natter or
- 13:25Speaker 9: Manchester City. It's not my name. It's not my identity.
- 13:28Speaker 9: It's not something that is engraved in meat up over thing.
- 13:31Speaker 9: But my name is. So in terms of when you're
- 13:33Speaker 9: talking about obviously not about everything else, I'm not going
- 13:37Speaker 9: to go in front of my child and the people
- 13:39Speaker 9: don't going to use not the name wrong or whatever
- 13:41Speaker 9: the case is. It is something that we always need
- 13:43Speaker 9: to protect our children where they can. So I will
- 13:46Speaker 9: not address it and be agro and everything in front
- 13:49Speaker 9: of the child because they don't cause more damage than
- 13:51Speaker 9: what they initial.
- 13:53Speaker 2: The name is.
- 13:54Speaker 9: But with them to understand, and it's a matter of
- 13:57Speaker 9: and sometimes such things can be fixed. And I'm saying
- 14:00Speaker 9: if they can say like sorry, we made a mistakes
- 14:03Speaker 9: and we might not have time to fix it, then
- 14:06Speaker 9: it's an understandable because now we're having an admicable type
- 14:09Speaker 9: of a conversation instead of now you're just not going
- 14:11Speaker 9: to fix the type of repersent. The reaction from them
- 14:14Speaker 9: also is important because I need them to understand that
- 14:17Speaker 9: it's not right. If somebody goes whatever, then the next
- 14:19Speaker 9: person of the but they think it's right.
- 14:22Speaker 2: Yeah, so this is the thing.
- 14:25Speaker 4: And look, I get what you're saying about the name
- 14:27Speaker 4: and the identity, right in this situation, I think there
- 14:30Speaker 4: wasn't time to change the case they picked it up
- 14:31Speaker 4: on the way to school or whatever the case is.
- 14:33Speaker 4: But the I think all of us must be careful.
- 14:36Speaker 4: And I've experienced this in my own life. It happened
- 14:40Speaker 4: to you, right, So yes, name and identity is important,
- 14:44Speaker 4: but to be careful to to because it happened to you,
- 14:47Speaker 4: it's going to happen to your child, right. And I've
- 14:50Speaker 4: seen a lot of parents who sort of their fears
- 14:53Speaker 4: parenting backwards.
- 14:54Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 14:54Speaker 4: Yeah, their fears inform how they look forward. If it
- 14:57Speaker 4: was me, I would have said, ah, look they spelled
- 15:00Speaker 4: your name wrong. Let's take a knife name off the cake.
- 15:05Speaker 1: I just feel like it's not the end of the world.
- 15:08Speaker 3: And and and your points about identity are valid, very
- 15:11Speaker 3: but identity is formed at home, and it is the
- 15:15Speaker 3: foundation is unshakable from home. So by the time you're
- 15:19Speaker 3: having these identity things, your child should be unshakable in
- 15:22Speaker 3: knowing that are but my name is Anne. That you
- 15:24Speaker 3: know that was a mistake and your child should be
- 15:26Speaker 3: able to see that people.
- 15:27Speaker 1: Are making mistakes. When people go out.
- 15:29Speaker 3: Of their way tombarrassed to belittle your identity, that's way.
- 15:34Speaker 1: That's a different case. But in mis you.
- 15:36Speaker 3: Know, in mistakes, you have to we have to raise
- 15:40Speaker 3: our kids to understand that other people make mistakes, and
- 15:42Speaker 3: other people's mistakes are not more heinous than the ones
- 15:46Speaker 3: that we are going to make ourselves. Because let me
- 15:48Speaker 3: tell you something about your child, They themselves, one day
- 15:50Speaker 3: in their lives, is going to spell somebody's name wrong,
- 15:52Speaker 3: and then must they crucify themselves until they go to
- 15:55Speaker 3: bed that night, because that's how they were taught, that's
- 15:57Speaker 3: how they were raised that when you get someone's name wrong,
- 16:01Speaker 3: you're punishable by this.
- 16:03Speaker 9: Yeah, but I think they expecting too much our children
- 16:05Speaker 9: to just be okay with it, like I said, when
- 16:07Speaker 9: it happened to me it was or whatever type of
- 16:10Speaker 9: the take okay.
- 16:11Speaker 3: But Jack, so how long how long is your child
- 16:14Speaker 3: allowed to be angry about their name beings about wrong?
- 16:17Speaker 3: But when you say you're expecting too much for your
- 16:19Speaker 3: child to say, it's just the thing. How long are
- 16:21Speaker 3: they allowed to sit and be upset that their name
- 16:23Speaker 3: was done wrong? Ten minutes, ten hours.
- 16:26Speaker 9: The first thing is I protect them in terms of
- 16:29Speaker 9: doing that when I go speak to so that the
- 16:31Speaker 9: issue here it's not really between me and my child
- 16:34Speaker 9: and giving her the cake and the cake and she
- 16:37Speaker 9: sees it, and what iman the case is when I
- 16:39Speaker 9: get that, the difference is going to be very very
- 16:41Speaker 9: different than whatever. So my thing is allowing the people
- 16:46Speaker 9: to make a mistakes to think that it's right when
- 16:48Speaker 9: we get home, you come back.
- 16:50Speaker 1: Now you're saying lots of things.
- 16:51Speaker 9: Now, no, no, no, no, But remember the story of her
- 16:55Speaker 9: is actually I'm upset with the people. Isn't that what
- 16:58Speaker 9: she said?
- 17:00Speaker 1: A January baby?
- 17:01Speaker 8: All?
- 17:01Speaker 1: I took to school with pray on.
- 17:03Speaker 3: And now we're going in circles every time we say
- 17:08Speaker 3: something got you, some moves got with you?
- 17:12Speaker 1: Hi got this on egg?
- 17:14Speaker 3: We must must make the same thing, even me, I
- 17:17Speaker 3: don't even know what I'm saying anymore. Now, look, bang,
- 17:22Speaker 3: you're a cake now, guys.
- 17:24Speaker 6: Well, so I ordered a cake for Coma's birthday and
- 17:30Speaker 6: some bakery, but I ordered it over the phone, and
- 17:34Speaker 6: I went to go collect this cake and they spelled
- 17:38Speaker 6: his name wrong.
- 17:39Speaker 1: They refused to fix that cake.
- 17:42Speaker 6: Sutinly, I would not spell my child's name wrong over
- 17:45Speaker 6: the phone or anywhere else. They are so I never
- 17:48Speaker 6: used to speakery, they are.
- 17:51Speaker 1: I'm yeah, cleto.
- 17:54Speaker 3: It's okay to throw your toys around, to go fr bag,
- 17:59Speaker 3: but to live the whole cake it's very wrong.
- 18:02Speaker 6: I get what you mean with teaching the child not
- 18:05Speaker 6: to be mad or throw ten trums over everything, but
- 18:08Speaker 6: with my money, that's where I drew the line.
- 18:10Speaker 7: I wouldn't care if they spelled my child's name wrong,
- 18:13Speaker 7: but what would make a difference for me is how
- 18:16Speaker 7: they respond when I let them know that the name
- 18:18Speaker 7: is spelled wrong.
- 18:19Speaker 1: Guys, is no issue if you the spelling is wrong.
- 18:22Speaker 1: As long as I'm getting a discount, it's okay. The
- 18:26Speaker 1: person who who made that cake actually needs to have
- 18:30Speaker 1: the ears the wax removed out of the ears because
- 18:33Speaker 1: they seem to have made the mistake.
- 18:35Speaker 3: Is the I think for you guys to say no,
- 18:37Speaker 3: just get over it until you order a nine four
- 18:40Speaker 3: seven cake and then it comes out saying nine seven forms.
- 18:49Speaker 1: My friend. I don't think you I don't think I
- 18:52Speaker 1: don't think you know how unserious we are. We would, right,
- 18:57Speaker 1: we would.
- 18:57Speaker 3: Change the jingles on the station for a week.
- 19:00Speaker 1: Brah and be like nine seven far, Hey, what's up?
- 19:03Speaker 3: You're a nine seven four right out of right?
- 19:05Speaker 1: A mind nine seven for what for fun? No, no, guys,
- 19:14Speaker 1: you know what it is.
- 19:15Speaker 3: I'm not saying that a mistake hasn't been made here
- 19:18Speaker 3: in yet, But it's like I was saying now to
- 19:19Speaker 3: my friend Rose, because she was talking about like her
- 19:22Speaker 3: cricket team and they continuously spell her one of the
- 19:25Speaker 3: kids names on the team wrong. The coaches, everyone, district everyone.
- 19:29Speaker 3: A mistake is a mistake only once. After that you
- 19:33Speaker 3: are you Now you're.
- 19:34Speaker 1: Just being flippant type of thing.
- 19:36Speaker 3: So I'm always look at the situation. Is this a
- 19:39Speaker 3: recurring thing? Is this person choosing, you know, to be
- 19:44Speaker 3: to belittle you by missing up your name and spelling
- 19:47Speaker 3: it wrong.
- 19:47Speaker 1: On all the time. Then put them gloves on and
- 19:49Speaker 1: let's go.
- 19:50Speaker 3: But you allow everybody to make one mistake and then
- 19:54Speaker 3: after that it's done. For instance, if Kumo's mom is
- 19:57Speaker 3: gonna use that bakery again, they know her now, do
- 20:00Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying? In fact, even themselves that
- 20:02Speaker 3: bakery should start towards changing their systems. Where hey guys,
- 20:05Speaker 3: we've made this mistake once before, it wasn't grand from
- 20:08Speaker 3: now on, please, Yes, we can take your order over
- 20:10Speaker 3: the phone, but the messaging or whatever's going on the
- 20:12Speaker 3: on the cake, send it with a whiteesapp or write
- 20:15Speaker 3: it down or things like that.
- 20:16Speaker 4: Yeah, look, and I think we've got to separate a
- 20:18Speaker 4: few issues. Yeah, the bakery messed up the name, correct, right.
- 20:21Speaker 4: I agree that you can hold the bakery accountable and
- 20:23Speaker 4: say this is not right. But we're talking about what
- 20:26Speaker 4: happens with that cake and with your child. So what's
- 20:28Speaker 4: the step after that? And to to your point by
- 20:31Speaker 4: our friend rise, when the child's name is written wrong
- 20:35Speaker 4: all the time, continuously, week in week out, you're obviously
- 20:38Speaker 4: going to take it up with that person. But what
- 20:41Speaker 4: are we what are we teaching our child?
- 20:43Speaker 2: Right?
- 20:44Speaker 4: So stand up, say your name is wrong. If they continue,
- 20:47Speaker 4: what are you going to do? It's outside your control
- 20:50Speaker 4: right there? You are you going to lose your mind
- 20:52Speaker 4: every single time? Are you going to go this anti CONTs?
- 20:55Speaker 4: But people are going to get things wrong in your life? No,
- 20:57Speaker 4: how do you handle it?
- 20:58Speaker 3: There's no ways your cricket which just getting your name
- 21:00Speaker 3: right that week. Wow, guys, know we're fighting. Go go
- 21:04Speaker 3: do something else. You're the one who chose to work
- 21:05Speaker 3: with people.
- 21:06Speaker 2: Well, I agree. If you're writing it down every week
- 21:08Speaker 2: is written wrong every week? Every week?
- 21:11Speaker 3: Ohet friend, good morning.
- 21:15Speaker 10: Good morning guys.

- 21:34Speaker 10: Those are the children we're kind. We are supposed to
- 21:37Speaker 10: actually raise kids that don't get affected by little things right,
- 21:42Speaker 10: because there are so many problems, so much can go
- 21:44Speaker 10: wrong in corporate I get an email, Hi Teple, you
- 21:48Speaker 10: saw my previous emails at tehole with the g okay,
- 21:52Speaker 10: let's keep it moving and who cares? Kids don't care
- 21:55Speaker 10: because don't care.
- 21:57Speaker 3: Here's the thing, right, you say you incorporate. Now now
- 22:02Speaker 3: we're gonna forget what the body of the email was saying,
- 22:05Speaker 3: and we.
- 22:05Speaker 1: Must all stop and call it yes, like Hi, Hi Temple,
- 22:08Speaker 1: it's actually tech. Listen about what you were saying. No no,
- 22:11Speaker 1: no no no no no no no no then you
- 22:13Speaker 1: carry it on.
- 22:14Speaker 3: If that person insists, then on calling new Taple. Now
- 22:18Speaker 3: there's a transgression there, and somebody is trying to bait you.
- 22:23Speaker 3: But somebody made a mistake once with your name. I'm
- 22:25Speaker 3: gonna check you on it, like, actually, that's not my name.
- 22:27Speaker 1: This is my name. But now now we're getting distracted.
- 22:30Speaker 3: Now we're forgetting that Coca Cola wants ten thousand bottles
- 22:33Speaker 3: by the end of today. Is Coca Cola gonna get
- 22:36Speaker 3: ten thousand bottles by the end of the day. If
- 22:37Speaker 3: we're all stopping to be upset that you spelt my
- 22:39Speaker 3: name wrong once for the first time in your life,
- 22:42Speaker 3: do you know what I'm saying?
- 22:43Speaker 10: Exactly? Exactly? So they have to live and kids in
- 22:47Speaker 10: school don't care. A new nickname might come.
- 22:49Speaker 3: From it, a cooler nickname even, And guys, let's get
- 22:53Speaker 3: cake and don't take photos.
- 22:55Speaker 1: I think that's my other solution.
- 22:57Speaker 3: Just take take the photo strategically, because the way we
- 22:59Speaker 3: don't miss see your name Melane and Alberton morning guys.
- 23:05Speaker 11: First time.
- 23:06Speaker 10: I'm ready, h that's what it was, Okay, And.
- 23:13Speaker 11: Listen, I don't think the issues the cake here. I
- 23:16Speaker 11: think we are making this small but it's not as
- 23:19Speaker 11: small as it seem. That bakery needs to take accountability.
- 23:23Speaker 11: People make mistakes and they think they can get away
- 23:26Speaker 11: with it. She told them that they spell the name wrong,
- 23:29Speaker 11: they must do something about it. Ecclease be nice or something.
- 23:35Speaker 11: Because I had my baby's name spelled wrong on a cake.
- 23:39Speaker 7: I was fine.
- 23:40Speaker 11: My husband was like, you know what, let's.
- 23:42Speaker 1: Just let her know that.
- 23:43Speaker 11: This name is missed. It was actually missing. The lady
- 23:46Speaker 11: came in the morning to fix it before the party
- 23:49Speaker 11: starts it, you know, So yeah it was. And I
- 23:53Speaker 11: didn't live and think. But she He was like, we
- 23:55Speaker 11: are paying for service. We need to get the service
- 23:58Speaker 11: that we paid for.
- 24:00Speaker 1: You know.
- 24:01Speaker 3: They they were they are Shorty Bakery. Do you know
- 24:03Speaker 3: how I knew they were Shorty domelling?
- 24:05Speaker 1: The fact that they take names over the phone. Yeah
- 24:09Speaker 1: to me already. They must be very.
- 24:11Speaker 3: Good at making cakes, but when it comes to the admin,
- 24:14Speaker 3: they're not great at it.
- 24:15Speaker 1: Because even a florist will will will insist. Okay, I
- 24:19Speaker 1: get it.
- 24:20Speaker 3: Can you WhatsApp me the message because imagine if florist
- 24:23Speaker 3: gets a message wrong, you know what I'm saying. So
- 24:26Speaker 3: that's when I really knew there were shorty one. But
- 24:28Speaker 3: I think to our to our discussion, and I think
- 24:30Speaker 3: you'll agree. You know, here we we we're discussing showing
- 24:35Speaker 3: our kids that mistakes are gonna happen. You're gonna make mistakes,
- 24:39Speaker 3: Other people are gonna make mistakes. How are we raising
- 24:42Speaker 3: our kids to deal with, you know, speed bumps along
- 24:45Speaker 3: the way where now the entire party has to have
- 24:47Speaker 3: a warble purely because the cake was wrong. So now
- 24:50Speaker 3: you're throwing out everything because the cake is wrong, and
- 24:53Speaker 3: then that's that's the memory your child has of this,
- 24:56Speaker 3: of this birthday. Yeah, no, my tenth birthday, all I
- 24:59Speaker 3: remember the cake had the wrong name.
- 25:01Speaker 6: You know.
- 25:01Speaker 1: You just want to equip your kids with.
- 25:05Speaker 4: You know, rewiring, you know, yeah, what is the what
- 25:08Speaker 4: is the reason for what we're doing here? We're celebrating you,
- 25:10Speaker 4: crating you and the name on the If someone's got
- 25:13Speaker 4: your name on the cake wrong, that doesn't influence how
- 25:15Speaker 4: we celebrate to you.
- 25:16Speaker 2: We're just having fun.
- 25:17Speaker 11: Yeah, no, it doesn't.
- 25:19Speaker 3: How old was your baby when they got the name wrong?
- 25:21Speaker 11: She was one. She didn't even care for the world exactly.
- 25:26Speaker 3: I think your husband was the one was most upset
- 25:28Speaker 3: because it's the first bad day.
- 25:29Speaker 1: It's a memory, and they get the name.
- 25:32Speaker 11: My husband is the guy that calls the manager. If
- 25:35Speaker 11: we go to a restaurant a minute later, they haven't
- 25:38Speaker 11: attended to us. He wants to talk to the manager.
- 25:42Speaker 4: I'm with your husband because service is free. That's how
- 25:45Speaker 4: I always look at it. Good service is free. Bad
- 25:48Speaker 4: service is also free. So that's the option of the place.
- 25:51Speaker 4: But I love that you guys are like, ah, let's
- 25:53Speaker 4: we're going to all them accountable. Then then they can
- 25:55Speaker 4: fixed it.
- 25:56Speaker 1: But it's not going to change.
- 25:57Speaker 4: How are we going to celebrate with the cakes right about.
- 26:00Speaker 3: Our child's first birthday? And the first birthday is a
- 26:02Speaker 3: big thing. So this is not a mistake that you wanted.
- 26:05Speaker 3: But okay, fine, okay, it's here now, but okay, dig
- 26:09Speaker 3: back for exactly five minutes and then you meet.
- 26:12Speaker 1: Now stack to making your morning and on nine four seven,
