But let me tell you one thing.
My daughter ain't going nowhere to no room with no Travis.
Ain't that his name, Travis?
Yeah, that that that's my name and my son.
We we're gonna do it.
But look here.
Matter of fact, my daughter ain't saying nothing about no travers.
Hell no.
What kind of parent would allow this?
Oh, I don't I don't I don't I don't understand what the what the problem what it is is we we in order to raise young adults, man, we have to treat them like adults.
I don't know what kind of parenting you do, but me and my husband, we don't let our our daughter go nowhere with no boy to no room.
I'm trying to figure out what kind of what kind of parent are you that's that's okay with this.
That's a you ain't gonna be able to do that.
You have to raise your kids and you have to trust your kids.
No, ain't no raising and no trusting.
That's a f I'm 41 years old and I ain't never heard another like this.
I can't believe you down with it.
Well, I uh uh i i is is it safe to say that I've taught I've taught Travis how to how to protect himself?
Is that okay to understand?
Cause I'm trying to understand what the hell you talking about protect yourself from what?
Because he got to protect himself with nothing.
Cause Brandon ain't going.
Okay, well, why why why why are you getting in the middle of what the kids got going?
No, no, ain't no getting in the middle.
And sh she ain't gonna do this.
This ain't just gonna happen.
And what I'm not saying that the kids are going to be doing something.
All I'm saying is, you just gonna put them in the atmosphere and tell them it's okay.
That's like giving them a plate full of cookies and telling them don't eat it.
What is what are you saying?
This is crazy.
No, don't don't no longer.
So you respect your daughter's choices.
Her choices.
Brandon ain't got no choices.
Let me tell you that.
Brandon ain't got a Brandon got no choices.
She can't even close her door without me telling her yes or no.
She don't get choices.
Ain't no what here you talking about some choices.
You give your child choices.
I don't.
That's some she does with me.
I'm thinking we give my kids' choices, we make them better.
Adults, you don't understand.
That's why these kids Around her shooting mama, poking out eyes, burn them and all this kind of f you just send them up to do whatever the hell they want to.
Brandy can't do a f thing unless I tell her she can.
So hell no.
She had no choices.
Are you gonna come between these two trying to go out on just a basic
time?
Because it ain't gonna happen.
You know what, ma'am?
The problem is that it seems like you're getting in the way.
You get in the way.
Let me just see in the note.
I'm I'm through talking to your f because you act like you don't understand.
My daughter ain't going nowhere with Travis or whoever else to no hotel room.
What you need to do is call and talk to my husband, Daryl.
Daryl ain't going for this blue.
Who do I need to talk to?
Daryl.
You call Daryl.
That's what you do.
You call Daryl.
Daryl gonna handle this.
Cause you the stupid who sit up and tell me that it's okay for this hero.
Okay, well, okay, so you what you trying to say?
Daryl, Daryl ain't gonna agree with me?
Hell no, Daryl ain't going for it.
So so let me let me let me ask you this here.
So you're trying to tell me that that you ain't never when you was a teenager done something different.
It don't matter what I did as a teenager.
She ain't doing it, and she ain't doing it with Travis.
How about that?
What you need to do, uh this conversation's over.
You call I don't know how the hell you got my work number, but if you got my work number, you got my house number.
You call there and you ask for Daryl, and Daryl gonna tell you the same.
You think I don't went off, Daryl gonna give it to you even worse.
That's our only daughter.
He ain't playing.
So you call my house, ask me there, tell the same, and I guarantee you it's gonna be trying to get away.
I need to get y'all a house phone number so I can call Daryl.
Because I'm not finna be scared of Daryl, and I'm not finna get in the way of these kids trying to grow up and and and be a young man.
You ain't gotta get in the way of it.
You ain't got to get in the way of it.
Give me your number.
Give me your address better.
Yeah, Daryl will come over there.
Okay, what what what is the problem with you?
Why can't you let these kids make their own decision?
Why can't you let them grow and be young adults?
That's all we're trying to do.
Because I got a husband.
He runs my house and I respect that and she respects him too.
Okay, I understand all that.
But but but you need you gotta let these kids be young adults.
