welcome back and in today's video a woman allegedly abuses her child makes a
video edits it and uploads it now there's a lot of people on both sides of
this we're gonna go through it and see what you guys think about it today in
social commentary now if you're following the represent Facebook page
you already seen a new commentary type video that I did on this and if you're
not we better hurry up and get over there so in this video it can be seen
this woman her name's Michelle and Michelle what she does is she apparently
her two-year-old daughter I believe it's a two year daughter gets into her
jeffree star alien palette which is a makeup product ruins it you see her say
hold on briefly leave for a second and come back saying that her hand hurts
because she had to pop her daughter one so let's let's watch that video
I'm most happily active and usually it's just a pop and it's barely hurt she
cries for like five seconds you can say whoever screen recorded this
clip is so angry they're just like flicking their ladder in the in the in
the reflection of the thing they're just like you can just see the aggressiveness
in the ladder flicks here it's safe to say that that person did not agree so
like I said there's two sides to this and we're going to talk about both sides
first we're gonna kind of go through a little bit of her explanation so we can
give you guys full context I'm gonna put this in the description below check it
out you need to form your own opinions that's what we're about honestly I'm
kind of surprised that she's not deleted this stuff but by the amount of backlash
that she's getting I've seen Philip DeFranco retweet this youtuber rep Z on
retweet this a lot a lot of bigger names are retweeting this in outrage
so she says my hand was hurting long before I even started filming which I
think this is backtracking because she's realizing that oh man maybe I shouldn't
have uploaded this video which I'm told that it's been deleted and she's just
kind of trying to make an excuse and reason but the thing about the Internet
is is we see your reasoning already she says my hand was hurting long before I
started filming she was crying because she got popped put in her crib and got
her Ducky's iPad taken from her this happened because she repeatedly didn't
listen to me yeah I was upset about the palette she continues by saying she's a
lot smarter than you guys think she's the most intelligent toddler I know she
knows right from wrong so yes she knew what she was doing she also knows that
she's not to touch my makeup unless she asks and I help when I got up and came
back I was getting milk giving the iPad back and comforting her yes I spanked
and pop my child but only when she absolutely will not listen to my
guidance I've explained myself already but now you've seen the rest of that
part of the video the wrist was honestly me going on
about how broke and sad I was the thing that gets me is generally when I heard
her say that she popped her kid I thought that was the spanking but she is
she specifies that she spanks and pops her child so I really don't know what
that means I know when I was a kid getting popped was literally like I'm
getting popped in the mouth that does not sound good
childhoods can be rough at times one Twitter user says she's too no matter
how smart she is she is physically a two-year-old I get hitting your kids but
when you're two it's crossing the line and over make up no less just because
she doesn't listen there are better ways she's - - her IQ doesn't matter in the
least she's a child one Twitter user saying I'd love to pop you another
Twitter user saying she's two years old all you're teaching her is how to hit
and intimidate someone smaller than her you'd be wise to stop explaining but
take it down and actually learn from this
the minute you hide something from your baby you've turned it into a game you
put them up I've seen a lot of people talking about this on Twitter today I
woke up and it was in the it was all over the homepage I get like makeup
palettes are real pretty bright colors you gotta know to put that up out of
reach of your child's general vicinity kids are going to emulate the adults
because that's their that's what's teaching them they this is their
experience that they're having so if they if the kid sees the the adult
playing in makeup they're gonna be super super interested in this colorful thing
so maybe get like a play makeup kit or something like that while you play with
your big makeup kit but definitely definitely don't pop and you know spank
your kit punish your kid for over makeup that to me doesn't make any sense here's
an interesting little piece of the thread here that goes into the
definition of pop I'm very interested in your definition of pop because in New
York that's a closed fist to the face Stevie wolf says in
it means the same thing it kind of seems like pop means about the same everywhere
another person saying it means the same thing everywhere it means the salt this
is what Philip DeFranco had to say so Michelle grace I don't believe in
spanking or popping their children in general but even for those that do
believe in that who does it to a effing two-year-old and over an effing palate
heartbreaking and infuriating that this is exactly how I feel about this
situation Reb Zeon says let's hit my two-year-old
kid because I lift out my makeup or didn't put it away in an area of reach
they can't get to hitting children does not help obedience it makes them rebel
more and normalizes physical abuse as normal again I have to agree with that
but I want to know what you guys think about this since this controversy has
happened Michelle Grace has blacked out her pictures on her Twitter taken off
her location because many people have threatened to call CPS and at this time
I think a little bit of Investigation I don't like pushing this on on situations
like this but maybe this situation is a little bit more sensitive to me because
of the Pat my past my childhood that I grew up in I heard that Michelle is from
the south and I'm not trying to generalize the South in any way shape or
form not trying to say that it that everyone in the south does this but
specifically growing up in the south it seems like abuse is more normalized here
and if you guys are from the South you probably can understand where what I'm
trying to get at other parts of the country don't really get it the the
social norms and folk ways in the South are completely different from other
parts of the country and having traveled out west to LA and places I kind of see
the differences in how people approach discipline for the children and just
what defines normal in other parts of the country if that makes sense
kids getting popped get getting general stripes which means exactly what it
sounds like I getting a belt across the back getting a foot a foot up your butt
like literally like getting kicked through the
house literally taking a switch to him to tell you it till it bleeds things
that are abuse and things that you guys were you it would drive you guys crazy
out there was a very normal thing for us in the South I'm not saying it's right
I'm saying that it was absolutely wrong and that's why it triggered me so much
because it give me flashbacks of my childhood because this is the type of
treatment I got if I did something wrong I got general stripes I got popped I
mean that was just how it is it was like a general normal more conservative type
way of punishment which I hated I hated a lot if I could say 100% that this
woman needs educated and I think that is a really really good way to approach it
it's going to be difficult for the majority that have witnessed this whole
scenario unfold to approach it in a helpful attitude because they want to
demonize her they want to take her down they want her to be off the internet let
me read to you what an actual therapist had to say about the situation Quintin
Clausen hi clinical therapist here who specializes in the treatment of child
abuse victims you stated my two-year-old just got her ass beat and my hand hurts
because I just beat the crap out of her as a professional I can guarantee that
behavior you described is detrimental to your child's development considering you
filmed yourself describing this behavior edited the footage and then published a
video I am under the impression that you would consider this behavior typical
justified this goes back to what I was talking about the norms and folk waves
in the south it is not and it is incredibly important for your child's
future well-being that you hold yourself accountable and educate yourself on the
countless potential adverse effects that behavior could have on your child let me
be clear there is no justification for your behavior you described and there
are alternative effective non detrimental ways of responding to a
toddler's defiant behavior with that said I don't believe it is constructive
to vilify you what would be constructive is to offer you resources and education
so that this behavior does not become cyclic often the behavior you described
is heavily influenced by environmental factor
and although you are accountable for your behavior I can appreciate that this
could be the result of extenuating circumstances and not simply a result of
your character feel free to DM me Michele grace if
you're at all interested in getting connected with resources in your area
I'm hoping the best for you and your child 100% agree with this and as
difficult as it is for all of us that are angered by this and triggered by
this this is probably the best approach because this is that whole terminology
if you teach a man how to fish you feed him for a lifetime if you give him a
fish you feed him for the day I would like to see this pushed more in the
southern area I'm sure there's other parts of the country that this is this
is also a normalized thing but just in my experience and like I said I'm
probably just in like this social bubble because I was born and raised in the
south it is a thing that I would like to see pushed down here I would like to see
education on how to treat your children push strongly more especially for people
that are new to parenting because what you get is a cyclic thing a vicious
cycle if you will where the parents who were not taught themselves how to do
things teach that behavior to their child and then that child grows up and
just repeats the process over and over again but that being said as interesting
as it is there's always something that's more interesting to me that's right you
guessed I want to know today so why did you go ahead and be creative and
interesting responses the comment box and be like there's always brothers and
sisters I will see you in the next video I was highly triggered by this I love my
parents but this was the way that they were they were taught and their parents
before their parents before their parents and it has a lot to do with
proper education I've grown up and I'm in a position to where I can teach my
family better and when I do have my kids one day I will teach
them the proper ways to do things to the best of my ability but you best believe
I'm gonna take I'm rebook s-- I'm gonna take classes and all this
other stuff I'm actually quite excited about my future family whenever that may
be at first I'd have to find a probably a girlfriend and all that stuff like
that and I'd have to fall in love and we're just we're far from that right now
we have a YouTube channel to take care of and you guys are my family so thank
you to the patrons really appreciate the support I do want to give a special
shout out to a couple reps club members tonight

want to start doing things to give back to the people that stand out in the
community it's like I feel like I'm gonna make a shirt and I'm gonna put
your name on it and I'm gonna wear it and if it's not like a crazy thing I'm
just gonna like I've like drawn your name all over the show and like wearing
I think that that would be a properly respectful thing just to do that's just
what I feel like doing over only rips on a Facebook page I want to thank
