- 1:50Speaker 6: that's what it sounds like on any given day.
- 1:54Speaker 7: Speaking of children's failures, pion Early, I just want to
- 1:58Speaker 7: find out. I was visiting my friend over the weekend
- 2:02Speaker 7: and her child asked if he could borrow my phone
- 2:05Speaker 7: to play games.
- 2:07Speaker 2: So I lent my phone.
- 2:08Speaker 7: The child was playing games, he dropped my phone and
- 2:11Speaker 7: the screen broke. I went to Votocom over the weekend
- 2:15Speaker 7: and it's going to cost me seven thousand and ran
- 2:17Speaker 7: to replace my iPhone sixteen screen. My friend refuses to
- 2:23Speaker 7: pay and say it says that it's my fault.
- 2:25Speaker 3: How much is a new phone, baby, Because it's rather
- 2:27Speaker 3: buy a new phone seven grand.
- 2:29Speaker 2: To repair a screen.
- 2:30Speaker 1: New phones are like twenty five thirty thirty five grand. Oh,
- 2:34Speaker 1: very expensive.
- 2:35Speaker 6: Oh, but why are you guys letting other people's children
- 2:38Speaker 6: play with your phones.
- 2:39Speaker 1: I don't.
- 2:40Speaker 6: I'm really not phrased that your child is too and crying.
- 2:43Speaker 6: It's they're not mine.
- 2:44Speaker 3: So if I'm like please, no, no, you just say
- 2:48Speaker 3: no and then you keep it moving.
- 2:49Speaker 6: Introduce them to the word no as soon as possible,
- 2:51Speaker 6: because ultimately you're there are two adults. Let's say in
- 2:55Speaker 6: the room. One of you has to make a grown
- 2:57Speaker 6: up decision.
- 2:57Speaker 1: You can't.
- 2:58Speaker 6: You honestly can't leave it to a toddler to keep
- 3:02Speaker 6: your phone safe.
- 3:03Speaker 5: If you if you don't want it broken, don't give
- 3:05Speaker 5: it to a child.
- 3:06Speaker 1: Guys.
- 3:06Speaker 5: That's this basic rule, like if you're willing whatever you
- 3:09Speaker 5: hand to a child, whatever, even it's your huh, you
- 3:12Speaker 5: must be willing to say, okay, I'm willing to have
- 3:13Speaker 5: that broken.
- 3:14Speaker 1: So I agree.
- 3:15Speaker 5: So, but at the same time, I do think that
- 3:17Speaker 5: the parents should. I would as me if it was
- 3:20Speaker 5: my child's say okay, i'll pay for let's go.
- 3:25Speaker 1: The has to pay the tire thing? Oh yes, because
- 3:29Speaker 1: you you were You were sitting next to me when
- 3:31Speaker 1: your child asked for the phone and I gave it
- 3:33Speaker 1: to Then.
- 3:34Speaker 2: You assume am I asking for too much from you? Frank.
- 3:37Speaker 3: If I say, if your child wants the phone, I say, Babe,
- 3:40Speaker 3: your child wants a phone.
- 3:40Speaker 2: Please give him yours.
- 3:41Speaker 1: No, that's fine.
- 3:42Speaker 3: Yes, I think that's why we should meet.
- 3:44Speaker 2: Each other halfway. Both adults here were stupid.
- 3:47Speaker 1: No, but I just feel like the moment that you're
- 3:50Speaker 1: if it's my child and I'm sitting next to you
- 3:52Speaker 1: and you he asks for the phone, and I you
- 3:55Speaker 1: see you hand the phone, that's when I assume liability here. No,
- 3:58Speaker 1: then it's my respond Then if if something happens, obviously
- 4:00Speaker 1: I've got to fix it for you. I can't now
- 4:03Speaker 1: say no, I'm not going to fix it.
- 4:05Speaker 2: Yeah, no, absolutely not.
- 4:06Speaker 3: You can't look the other way and expect me to
- 4:08Speaker 3: take on a seven thousand rand's bull that your.
- 4:11Speaker 6: Child broke it is the parent's fault, because I'm sorry.
- 4:13Speaker 6: If your child is crying for someone else's phone and
- 4:16Speaker 6: you're the reason your child even knows that they're trying
- 4:18Speaker 6: to access a cell phone because you, guys, I'm not judging.
- 4:21Speaker 6: You give it to them to play with games or whatever.
- 4:23Speaker 6: That's cool, but you're supposed to then step step in
- 4:25Speaker 6: and give them your phone. If that's what you guys
- 4:28Speaker 6: are used to, Oh.
- 4:30Speaker 3: This is wild, well this could this could like end
- 4:33Speaker 3: a friendship, right, absolutely, really, you're totally timbigilli.
- 4:36Speaker 2: Absolutely, especially if I feel.
- 4:39Speaker 3: Really really deeply about the fact that your child broke
- 4:42Speaker 3: my phone and you should help me pay for.
- 4:44Speaker 6: It, I could just save it as a story for
- 4:46Speaker 6: their twenty first and see how I realized your mother's
- 4:48Speaker 6: an awful person is that at age three, you broke
- 4:50Speaker 6: my phone and she didn't pay.
- 4:52Speaker 5: So basically, we're saying, if your child does anything to
- 4:55Speaker 5: somebody else's thing.
- 4:56Speaker 3: You are responsible for regardless, yes, or at least halfway.
- 5:01Speaker 3: We're like, ah, babe, how much is gonna cost you?
- 5:03Speaker 3: Let me help you pay for it. Do you know
- 5:05Speaker 3: what I'm saying? Don't take full responsibility because now you
- 5:08Speaker 3: gave the phone, but definitely it's your child. If your
- 5:11Speaker 3: child walks into a shop and breaks a vase, guys,
- 5:14Speaker 3: you're gonna have to pay for the vase.
- 5:16Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, that's usually what happens.
- 5:18Speaker 5: Yeah, Oh, the shop will be that the shop didn't
- 5:20Speaker 5: give you the vase and say, here, little child, holders
- 5:23Speaker 5: vas you, as an adult, gave the phone to a child,
- 5:27Speaker 5: and it's half half for me because because there's both
- 5:30Speaker 5: responsibility my child. Yes, broke your thing, but you gave
- 5:33Speaker 5: it to my child to play with.
- 5:34Speaker 2: Cindy.
- 5:35Speaker 3: I love that you say half half, because that's why
- 5:37Speaker 3: I said, you take half and I take half.
- 5:39Speaker 2: Yeah, everybody's responsible here. No one is completely at fault.
- 5:43Speaker 1: No, but still it's your child and you're the parent.
- 5:46Speaker 1: You should have stepped in there and said no, no, no, Johnny,
- 5:48Speaker 1: don't take don't take Anti Nelle, It's fine. Here's my phone.
- 5:51Speaker 3: Oh one one eighty eight thirty eight nine four seven.
- 5:54Speaker 3: Has your friendship survived something like this? Your frinch child
- 5:57Speaker 3: destroys something in your house, break something maybe like smashes
- 6:02Speaker 3: a little scooter into your car, breaks your phone, breaks
- 6:06Speaker 3: the vase in the house, breaks an art piece.
- 6:09Speaker 2: There goes Mona Lisa on the floor. Why does it
- 6:13Speaker 2: sound like a game and not a breaking thing.
- 6:15Speaker 1: We'll get back to that later.
- 6:16Speaker 2: Zero eighty four.
- 6:17Speaker 3: Double zero double zero nine four seven. If you're gonna
- 6:20Speaker 3: send us a voice mode, your child, your friend's child
- 6:23Speaker 3: broke your phone and now you have to prepare it
- 6:26Speaker 3: for seven thousand rand and your friend is refusing to
- 6:28Speaker 3: help you pay for it.
- 6:29Speaker 1: No, the parent has to pay. I'm sticking to it.
- 6:32Speaker 7: Hi and Elia, I just want to find out. I
- 6:36Speaker 7: was visiting my friend over the weekend and her child
- 6:39Speaker 7: asked if you could borrow my phone to play games,
- 6:43Speaker 7: so I lent hear my phone. The child was playing games,
- 6:46Speaker 7: he dropped my phone and the screen broke. I went
- 6:49Speaker 7: to votecom over the weekend and it's going to cost
- 6:52Speaker 7: me seven thousand and ran to replace my iPhone sixteen screen.
- 6:57Speaker 7: My friend refuses to pay and says it says that
- 7:00Speaker 7: it's my fault. Hi and Eliot, I just want to
- 7:02Speaker 7: find out. I was visiting my friend over the weekend
- 7:07Speaker 7: and her child asked if he could borrow my phone
- 7:10Speaker 7: to play games, so I lent my phone. The child
- 7:14Speaker 7: was playing games, he dropped my phone and the screen broke.
- 7:18Speaker 7: I went to vote com over the weekend, and it's
- 7:20Speaker 7: going to cost me seven thousand and ran to replace
- 7:24Speaker 7: my iPhone sixteen screen. My friend refuses to pay and
- 7:28Speaker 7: says it says that it's my fault.
- 7:30Speaker 8: Those kids immediately when the screen switches off, they throw
- 7:34Speaker 8: attest to them and throw the phone on the floor.
- 7:37Speaker 1: You're going to learn no, no, no, no no. I'm
- 7:40Speaker 1: with Tim Bigulla on this one. Teach them the word
- 7:43Speaker 1: no from a young age.
- 7:44Speaker 2: The parents should not pay the fressure.
- 7:46Speaker 1: I've never given the child something.
- 7:48Speaker 6: That's not a toy to play with, right, But if
- 7:51Speaker 6: it's a class class in the house or window glass
- 7:54Speaker 6: or something like that, then yeah, definitely pay, you know,
- 7:57Speaker 6: but for this, I know.
- 7:58Speaker 1: I just disagree with you, guys. When you give the
- 8:01Speaker 1: child your phone, you know immediate that run there. Is
- 8:05Speaker 1: you gave her the phone, you will pay for it. Guys,
- 8:09Speaker 1: I agree with Frankie and Tim Mkia. The momented to
- 8:11Speaker 1: put on her beagle panties and pay the full amount
- 8:14Speaker 1: because it was her child that broke the phone.
- 8:17Speaker 3: That's what we're saying, though Tim Beginners saying the opposite.
- 8:19Speaker 3: Don't you come in and make Tim Beginner sound like
- 8:21Speaker 3: it's a reasonable person.
- 8:23Speaker 2: That's a wild take from you.
- 8:24Speaker 1: Now, Yeah, the parent's gonna have to pay for this.
- 8:27Speaker 1: If I if it was my friend, can I just
- 8:29Speaker 1: quickly say the difference between the breaking things in your house, right,
- 8:34Speaker 1: is that I invited you guys to my house. If
- 8:37Speaker 1: I was so precious about the things in my house,
- 8:39Speaker 1: don't invite people over exactly. Then I'd say, look, you
- 8:42Speaker 1: were the one I was the one who invited everyone. Guy,
- 8:44Speaker 1: I knew kids were coming, I knew there were things
- 8:46Speaker 1: out that could be broken. That's a different story for me.
- 8:49Speaker 3: I feel across any situation that could happen. If your
- 8:52Speaker 3: child damages anything, you have to offer to give something,
- 8:56Speaker 3: you've got to. I'm not saying take the full price,
- 8:58Speaker 3: but say, oh my word, can I help deadline guys?
- 9:01Speaker 3: Can we help you pay for it? Can we can
- 9:04Speaker 3: we go halve this on it? Give offer something? There's
- 9:07Speaker 3: no ways that when you can look up and be like, well,
- 9:09Speaker 3: you gave it to him, it's your child.
- 9:13Speaker 1: I absolutely feel that the parents should pay the whole thing.
- 9:16Speaker 2: The whole thing.
- 9:17Speaker 3: Okay, let's hop on over to Limbopo Invender. Good morning,
- 9:20Speaker 3: Madamela diny do my char.
- 9:27Speaker 8: How are you g We are so good?
- 9:29Speaker 2: How are you?
- 9:30Speaker 8: I'm great? But I'm not paying a cent?
- 9:35Speaker 2: You know why?
- 9:36Speaker 8: You know why. Let's take it home. Okay, we all
- 9:39Speaker 8: have parents, cousins whatever. Imagine you are there sitting in
- 9:43Speaker 8: holding peacefully and you are being called that your your
- 9:47Speaker 8: parents borrowed a car from the me but without your
- 9:50Speaker 8: knowledge and had an accident. Now you have to pay
- 9:53Speaker 8: for it. You were not contacted when this contract started.
- 9:57Speaker 8: Now you are in it. Said my children. If they
- 10:02Speaker 8: borrow a phone in front of me, I'm gonna take
- 10:04Speaker 8: that phone and give it back to you because I'm
- 10:07Speaker 8: not paying a shed and no is an answer. Don't
- 10:10Speaker 8: buy bribes on my kids, please, they are too and
- 10:13Speaker 8: they give me headaches already. I'm living out of budget
- 10:16Speaker 8: with them. Don't start things I won't.
- 10:19Speaker 2: Finish, please, Madamela.
- 10:21Speaker 3: Something tells me your parents have loaned the car from
- 10:24Speaker 3: someone and.
- 10:25Speaker 2: Then they crashed it. And then it became me a problem.
- 10:27Speaker 2: Was that a hypothetical situation?
- 10:29Speaker 8: Never if they did that, they would also be.
- 10:31Speaker 3: On their own cheap as you have told yourself that
- 10:34Speaker 3: you are You are Ray Charles.
- 10:36Speaker 2: You are Ray Charles's the whole situation. No if, no, if,
- 10:40Speaker 2: okay exactly.
- 10:41Speaker 1: But I like Whattamela is saying, because she would have
- 10:44Speaker 1: she would have grabbed the phone and said, no, he
- 10:46Speaker 1: has your phone back. You don't give the child a phone.
- 10:48Speaker 2: This is gonna end bad.
- 10:49Speaker 3: Yes, because you know the amount of times that let
- 10:52Speaker 3: kids just randomly play with my phone.
- 10:53Speaker 2: I really should stop that.
- 10:54Speaker 1: No, you should really stop because.
- 10:56Speaker 3: You guys do not know how to be friends with
- 10:58Speaker 3: their people, because I would. I would expect for my
- 11:00Speaker 3: friend to pay half of my phone if the child
- 11:03Speaker 3: broke my phone.
- 11:04Speaker 1: I would expect my friend to pay for everything.
- 11:06Speaker 2: Do you guys not want to save your friendships?
- 11:09Speaker 1: Is it?
- 11:09Speaker 2: Fellow? Good morning fellow in Pretoria.
- 11:12Speaker 9: Morning Anela and the club.
- 11:14Speaker 2: Morning darling.
- 11:14Speaker 1: How are you?
- 11:16Speaker 9: I'm okay? How are you?
- 11:17Speaker 8: Guys?
- 11:17Speaker 3: We are split down the middle and we don't look
- 11:20Speaker 3: like we'll be reaching a consensus anytime soon. What's your input?
- 11:25Speaker 9: Anela? I'm the lady, the lady that sent you the
- 11:28Speaker 9: voice note. I'm the lady. I know the pain. Oh,
- 11:33Speaker 9: my sister in law, my sister's last child broke my couch,
- 11:38Speaker 9: my recliner couch. And then I tell her that the
- 11:41Speaker 9: sun did this and this, and then she just got
- 11:44Speaker 9: angry with me. We never spoke for two years. Even now,
- 11:49Speaker 9: I'm still angry about it.
- 11:51Speaker 3: I tell you, Oh, you see, because guys, the couch
- 11:55Speaker 3: are sitting there doing its own thing. Hey, your child
- 11:57Speaker 3: got on it and broke it, and now you don't
- 11:59Speaker 3: want to pay it.
- 12:01Speaker 1: Jeez, I'd be very upset. Is your couch fixed now?
- 12:05Speaker 5: No?
- 12:06Speaker 9: If you come and visit me, you won't be able
- 12:08Speaker 9: to reclin the couch.
- 12:11Speaker 1: So it's just upright now.
- 12:15Speaker 9: It's called I want to return on my chest, said, nicely,
- 12:18Speaker 9: watch a movie. I can't. I'm reminded daily that the
- 12:23Speaker 9: child broke my couch.
- 12:25Speaker 2: You are you are not a relaxed fellow at all.
- 12:28Speaker 3: You know you are sitting upright, You're a fly flight
- 12:33Speaker 3: I'm telling you.
- 12:35Speaker 2: Don't reply.
- 12:36Speaker 1: I say, no, absolutely no.
- 12:41Speaker 10: I have a friend who can buy with the child,
- 12:44Speaker 10: and the child broke my photo frame. Next thing, the
- 12:49Speaker 10: friend asked the child if the kid they were like, oh, baby,
- 12:52Speaker 10: are you okay that time? I also want to be
- 12:55Speaker 10: asked if I'm okay that the child broke my thing.
- 12:58Speaker 3: So I think if you, uh, that's silly to give
- 13:01Speaker 3: you a very expensive phone to your kid, then that's
- 13:04Speaker 3: your risk.
- 13:05Speaker 1: Guys, this will never happen to be This would never
- 13:08Speaker 1: happen to me because I don't give my phone to nobody,
- 13:11Speaker 1: not even anybody's child, no matter how cuture child is.
- 13:15Speaker 10: Start to making your mourning and the club on nine
- 13:21Speaker 10: four seven
