  Speaker 1: let's ask our American mama's mama, mama, and joining is
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: now our American mama is Terry Netteville and Kimberly Burlison.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Y'all didn't lie to her children.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: Would you?
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Lying is wrong? You certainly you taught your kids that
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: lying is wrong. Youthful lies, okay, but you useful lies
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: can be wrong. To the left will think that the
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: saying that Donald Trump is a fascist is a useful
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: lie at.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: Point, Well, well that's a whole other kind of lie.
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: I saw this video the other day and that it
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: made me laugh so hard, and it was this mother.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: She said that she told her kids that when they
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: lie to her that a star appears on their forehead.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: So she said that her kids would come to tell
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: her something and they'd put their hand over their forehead.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: And I so I sent a message to my kids
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: and I said, what was the useful life You remember
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: me telling you? Well, my phone was blowing up, I
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: mean boom boom, boom boom exactly. And all of my
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: kids agreed that they had a fear of the ice
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: cream man because I told them that they take children.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: So when my kids, when they would hear the little
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: music played, my kids would come running to the house.
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: The ice cream band is he And I was like,
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: because they could, they could take little kids. I see
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: that as a useful life. I was taking them.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: You've traumatized children to this day if they hear the musical.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: Stone said that that music, to this day is the
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: eeriest music that he could ever here.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Look, I am still if I walk into a store,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what store, I will put my hands
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: in my pocket because of conditioning from my mom. When
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: I was a little child, we walked into any store,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: you go put your hands in your pocket, and so
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: that I wouldn't so I wouldn't touch anything.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: You brain.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: So to this day I'm a grown ass man and
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: I put my hands in my pockets whenever I walk
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: into a store because I've been traumatized. You've taught you,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: who are now adults, to run away from ice cream trucks.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: I know, I know, But my son did admit that
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: one of my lies. He said that, and I kind
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: of remember this. I said that there was a private
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: investigator I hired to follow him in high school. Oh
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: my god. And so he said, Mom, you literally kept
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: me from doing certain things. I was like, I know,
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: my mom's useful light I kept my son out of trouble.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Actually, I think that's a good tip for parents.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: And tell your kids had probably been the best siegators following.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: I could see where that would work too. I asked
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: mine too, I said, what what did I lie? Did
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: I say anything? And only Slade came back and this
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: is not a useful I don't know why I said this,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: but he said, you told me that the bumps on
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: the road were for blind people.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: I said, by.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: He said, I don't know. I guess I was asking
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: too many questions and you were like, yeah, that's Braill,
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: that's Roadbraill. But then I thought, okay, I will admit
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: this and they if they're listening, then we'll hear this
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: for the very first time. But I always, whenever I
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: would find out something, whether it was snooping a little
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: bit or whatever, I would say, they would be like,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: how did you know this? I was like, the mama vine.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: The mama vine is long and wide. You better be
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: careful because the mom we all see things and we
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: all Sometimes I wouldn't even know if it was true,
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: but to catch them, yeah, I would say this is
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: weird I heard in the Mama vine and they would
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: like want to know who I was, like, oh no,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: that's mama vine is.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: Like a code in the vault.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: It's in the vault. And I would say that you
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: were you were caught taking you know, no, no, no, no,
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: whatever it was. And they would like either admit it
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: or go, what that's not true? Like that's kind of
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: I would use them to this day. I'll say, they'll say,
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: how did you know that? I'll go the Mama vine
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: and then they all go and it's long and mide,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: you know, because I would say that when they're growing up.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: But but at least there's some kernel of truth in that,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: because moms do talk to.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: Each Yes, yeah, I don't know why I told him
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: the bumps in the road. Well, I didn't believed it.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: That's what's so funny.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: I didn't lie to my kids so much as I
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: just made fun of them relentlessly. Like what I don't
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: even remember. I was just making I was making fun
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: of Bail. I was driving Bailey to school one morning,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Julie was in the backseat too, But yeah, this is
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: elementary school, like third grade. I'm driving Bailey to school
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: and I'm just ripping on him. I am making fun
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: of him. I'm just I'm all over this kid, right,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: and he's just kind of laughing. But I just I know,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: I'm just ripping them new ones, right, and I think
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: it's funny. And I say to him, I say, Bailey,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: do your friends' parents make fun of your friends as
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: much as I do? And and he says, no, no, Dad,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: they don't. And I said, it's a shame that none
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: of your friend's parents love your friends. And he said,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: I think they do, Dad, I think they just show
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: it a different way.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Right. This is the thing, especially with our with our dad,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: humor was key to who we were as a family,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: and if you couldn't make fun of yourself then you
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: were doomed. So he would, we would hammer each other.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: So even to this day, people was like, you're so
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: harsh on each other because we find it funny.
• 5:53
