- 0:05Speaker 1: if he.
- 0:05Speaker 2: Won't do it?
- 0:06Speaker 3: Well, let's ask Marrick and mama's.
- 0:09Speaker 4: Alma Mama, she said, And twenty years now we are American
- 0:22Speaker 4: Mama's turn Edivilee and Kimberly bur Listen, this is not
- 0:25Speaker 4: the Stephen Parr Hour.
- 0:27Speaker 1: But I got some thoughts on this. But Terry and Kimberly,
- 0:32Speaker 1: what do y'all think about? Is it okay for a
- 0:34Speaker 1: woman to propose if the man won't.
- 0:36Speaker 3: Have you seen the video? There's a video in this girl.
- 0:40Speaker 3: This girl bless her heart. She's been with her boyfriend
- 0:42Speaker 3: for fourteen years, fourteen and she tells the audience, she
- 0:45Speaker 3: tells the people, tells all of us, Look, he does
- 0:49Speaker 3: love me. I know what people are gonna say. I
- 0:51Speaker 3: don't care what people say. I know how much he
- 0:54Speaker 3: loves me. He wants to be with me forever. It's
- 0:58Speaker 3: just tom, I just want to be married. So I'm
- 1:00Speaker 3: going to ask him. I'm going to ask him to
- 1:02Speaker 3: marry me. I was like, first of all, fourteen years,
- 1:06Speaker 3: fourteen years you'd been with this guy and he hadn't,
- 1:10Speaker 3: which is excuse.
- 1:11Speaker 1: Baby, I don't know if I can handle that kind
- 1:12Speaker 1: of a commitment.
- 1:13Speaker 3: Fourteen years, buddy, eighteen years and so I said, So
- 1:17Speaker 3: then I took it to another level. So I showed
- 1:19Speaker 3: Kevin the video and I said, what would you do
- 1:22Speaker 3: if this was your daughter?
- 1:24Speaker 2: Oh?
- 1:24Speaker 1: Yeah, what would you do?
- 1:25Speaker 3: And he said, ooh, it wouldn't have gotten that far.
- 1:28Speaker 3: I said, you can't. You can't say that because this
- 1:31Speaker 3: is clearly a grown woman. Maybe let's say that her
- 1:35Speaker 3: dad did say, you know twelve years ago, you know eleven,
- 1:38Speaker 3: twelve years ago, No, this isn't going to work. He
- 1:41Speaker 3: needs to commit or you got to go. And she says,
- 1:43Speaker 3: this is the man I love. I'm not I'm not
- 1:45Speaker 3: going anywhere. Like, how would you deal with this? He said?
- 1:48Speaker 3: I think I would do it? After three years? There
- 1:51Speaker 3: would have been some conversations with him, like what are
- 1:53Speaker 3: your intentions? You know, I would have talked to my
- 1:56Speaker 3: daughter about the years of you know, birthing years, right,
- 2:00Speaker 3: what do you want in life? Why isn't this something?
- 2:03Speaker 3: Why isn't this part of the plan? He said? Clearly
- 2:06Speaker 3: the guy has issues with commitment, clearly, So he's like,
- 2:11Speaker 3: I just he gues, I just can't even imagine. Of course,
- 2:14Speaker 3: we have a different you know, our daughter is not
- 2:15Speaker 3: that way. So he was like, I can't imagine somewhere.
- 2:17Speaker 3: I was like, no, no, no, you have to pretend like
- 2:19Speaker 3: you're this girl's dad. What did you think?
- 2:21Speaker 2: I think this is a liberal thing. This is what
- 2:23Speaker 2: I see on social media because a lot of liberal
- 2:26Speaker 2: women are celebrating this, and you go, girl, you propose
- 2:33Speaker 2: what you noticed, And every one of those proposals is
- 2:36Speaker 2: the guy recoiling. You see him absolutely embarrassed. You see
- 2:41Speaker 2: him look around. This is almost every video that I
- 2:44Speaker 2: have seen of this thing happening. They are so embarrassed
- 2:48Speaker 2: by it. They say yes. Everyone I've seen they say yes.
- 2:51Speaker 2: But that girl looks desperate, he looks in feminine, he
- 2:56Speaker 2: looks embarrassed, And I'm like, why is it a And
- 3:00Speaker 2: I feel like everything's a joke. Everything's a lie. You know, go, go,
- 3:04Speaker 2: go go, you do this, You do this because they
- 3:06Speaker 2: don't want to do it. They want to watch you
- 3:08Speaker 2: do it to kind of fill out you know how
- 3:10Speaker 2: everybody's going to respond to it. But it's a living joke.
- 3:13Speaker 2: If the guy doesn't propose to you, you've been together
- 3:15Speaker 2: fourteen years and he does not propose to you, He
- 3:17Speaker 2: does not want to marry you.
- 3:18Speaker 3: Yeah. But I'm so surprised that it's a liberal thing,
- 3:22Speaker 3: because it's we're literally going through a phase right now
- 3:25Speaker 3: in America where the liberal women are saying that they
- 3:28Speaker 3: don't want to get married, and they're championing that you
- 3:32Speaker 3: don't need to get married, you don't need to do that.
- 3:35Speaker 3: So that's so interesting.
- 3:36Speaker 1: They may be lying to themselves on this, they are,
- 3:38Speaker 1: and that you know, well, I don't need this, I
- 3:41Speaker 1: can be absolutely, But there's we were designed by the
- 3:45Speaker 1: creator to operate in a certain way, and you can't
- 3:49Speaker 1: really get rid of some of those factory installed instructions.
- 3:54Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's just kind of how some things
- 3:56Speaker 1: are supposed to work, and it works better when you
- 4:00Speaker 1: follow the way that we're designed to work.
- 4:03Speaker 3: Okay, Steven, let's say it was Julia, this is your daughter,
- 4:06Speaker 3: and she's fourteen years with her. Yeah, I'm looking at
- 4:09Speaker 3: Wendy too, what would you do?
- 4:13Speaker 1: I like Kevin, we would not have gone two years
- 4:17Speaker 1: without me pulling the guy aside saying Okay, what's up,
- 4:21Speaker 1: what's up? Are you actually going to be a man?
- 4:23Speaker 3: And it depends on the age for sure. This is it.
- 4:25Speaker 3: We're talking twenties, you know what.
- 4:27Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. If my daughter's in her forties and
- 4:30Speaker 1: there's a guy that's been with her for a couple
- 4:32Speaker 1: of years, I'm going to pull him aside and say, Okay,
- 4:34Speaker 1: are you a man or not? Because if you're a man,
- 4:37Speaker 1: you're gonna take responsibility. I don't need you know, macho
- 4:40Speaker 1: thump in your chest, but I need you to be
- 4:42Speaker 1: able to take responsibility for what you're doing. And there's
- 4:45Speaker 1: a right way to do things and there's the wrong
- 4:47Speaker 1: way to do things. You got to do the right
- 4:48Speaker 1: thing in the right way for the right reasons or
- 4:50Speaker 1: else you're wrong. Right now, son, you are wrong. So
- 4:52Speaker 1: what you're going to do. I would have had that
- 4:55Speaker 1: conversation and it would have not gone fourteen years. And
- 4:59Speaker 1: I would have also pointed out to my daughter, you
- 5:02Speaker 1: need to hold him to a higher account because you
- 5:04Speaker 1: are worth more than that.
- 5:06Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right.
- 5:07Speaker 2: You saying that points something out with this particular girl.
- 5:10Speaker 2: Where are her parents in pointing out and her friends
- 5:13Speaker 2: pointing out all these red flags that exist? Where are they?
- 5:16Speaker 3: Clearly they did, because in the video she said I
- 5:19Speaker 3: know what everyone's already. I'd already know what everyone's going
- 5:21Speaker 3: to say. So you know that she's been Yeah, she's
- 5:24Speaker 3: been here. And what I've meant by ages, you're not
- 5:26Speaker 3: talking high school sweethearts. So that's all I was saying
- 5:29Speaker 3: about that, But she was. You could tell she was
- 5:31Speaker 3: almost embarrassed to tell, to tell everybody, like, I'm getting
- 5:36Speaker 3: this out here. So if you're going to say that, don't,
- 5:38Speaker 3: I'm going to. But we don't know what happened. Did
- 5:40Speaker 3: do you say yes?
- 5:42Speaker 1: Did?
- 5:42Speaker 3: I don't know, like what happened? And then what if?
- 5:45Speaker 3: What if? Because this has happened fortune. We know people
- 5:47Speaker 3: like this. They've dated high school and college and then
- 5:50Speaker 3: they break up because one wants to get married when done,
- 5:52Speaker 3: and then the next time they date someone like six
- 5:54Speaker 3: months later and get engaged six months after that. Yeah,
- 5:57Speaker 3: you know if you've wasted all those years. And I
- 6:01Speaker 3: have a friend that wasted her twenties because the guy
- 6:05Speaker 3: would not convenient with me, and so then she ended
- 6:08Speaker 3: up being single for ten more years after that and
- 6:11Speaker 3: he got married like right away. It's wild. So after
- 6:15Speaker 3: fourteen years, if he hadn't asked you, honey, I would
- 6:18Speaker 3: look elsewhere. If you want children, If you like t.
