Biological Family? | Q & A! | It's Going To Be Okay You asked, and we answered! Do you talk to your biological family? This was a fun Q & A and we answered some juicy questions! Po Box 21360,Mesa,AZ 85277
@@tashatrepanier6654 they are both. Aurora was adopted by the crazy Pieces and the crazy Pieces consider Jamie their daughter as well. Jamie is biologically Aurora's mother. And according to the Crazy Pieces they are open to whatever relationship comes. I believe they cover this in depth in a video on their channel.
Soo sweet that Jamie although sees Aurora as her sister but still protective over Aurora being that she is the birth mother. I love your relationship and your family.
Question for Melinda: Do think of Aurora as a sibling or more as a niece- how do you plan to navigate and explain the relationship between Scarlet and Aurora when she’s a little older? Are they more like cousins or will it be explained that Aurora is her aunt? Love you all so much 🥰🥰
@@wanupgirl actually biologically she’s Aurora’s aunt and Scarlett is Aurora’s first cousin. But through adoption she’s Aurora’s sister and Scarlett is Aurora’s niece
@@wanupgirl it will prolly go off of biological once they are old enough. Because crystal said in one of the stories that she will tell aurora that Jamie is her mom❤️
I can remember Crystal saying ages ago that they’ll make Aurora aware of the situation but her and Aaron are her parents. I imagine they’d do the same for Aurora, Melinda and scarlet. Would make sense for them to just be family and not worry about her playing the role of an Aunty or a cousin etc. Either way they’re all so lucky to be surrounded with so much love from each other!
Aww Jamie wanting to take Savannah and Ariana to Hollywood would be such a fun girls trip wouldn't it! I love that she would pick Savannah, they probably are starting to build a great bond :)
You can tell that Jamie loves Aurora so much and it’s so sweet, must’ve been so hard for her let go of her because of her own problems but she did the right thing for her child, so admirable
@@babylish1711 well in this video the question clearly stated “which sibling are you most protective of?” And Jamie answers “Aurora” so that would suggest she sees her as a sister not as her daughter.
@@eilrahc101 I understand that but she’s definitely drawn to aurora a lot more (which it’s obvious why) so her individual feeling could be that she does still see aurora as her daughter but she just answered the question as it was
@@bambifrancisco3854 exactly! This is what I’m talking about, I mean sure Aurora is being brought up as Jamie’s sister but she knows that her daughter and her love for her as a mother shows more than a love for her sibling
Jamie made me choke up with her concern over Halie. She is clearly with a family she worries about and loves. Love, love, love that Jamie is so in tune with Aurora...she is so lucky Aurora was adopted by Crystal and Aaron. Melinda and Jamie are strong woman with all they have been through in life...and blessed to have found Crystal/Aaron/family.
I would love to hear you and Jamie’s full story, from before you were in foster care, when you were in foster care, having Scarlett & Aurora, when you were out of foster care and all of the above :) If this is too personal I totally understand, I love you and your family so much!
I'm glad she is not with her boyfriend. I saw their video and he was barely talking and he walked ahead of her. She is a beautiful young women and deserves better. That's my opinion 🤔
Jamie.. I lived near Hollywood for 69 years and never visited.. my children however did visit and said it’s not all we imagine and to be careful wondering around alone in the area..
Love that you said it’s ok that your last relationship was over. Being ok with being single opens you up to be available when mr right comes along. I pray that someone that will love and cherish you and be a true partner for life will find their way to you!
I would like to know how you got to Arizona and Jamie was in Michigan? How did you end up in foster care but Jamie was with your dad and how long were you in foster care? I admire your perseverance
You should do a series about your past, up until foster, then during, then after finding your forever fam. I love your relationship with your adoptive parents. I also have a special needs sister and was adopted by my late great grandparents. Your whole family makes my heart happy!
Melinda, you are so beautiful inside and out. You've overcome so much. I understand that people want to know things; however, I hope you know you never have to share more than you want to. The adoption story video you did with your parents on their channel is so thorough that it's okay if you just want to refer people to it. You should only do another video recounting all of that if it is healing for you. Don't do it just to answer questions from the audience. You are so strong and courageous. I'm also a survivor of sexual abuse and I can say that you are more together and responsible than I am and I'm twice your age.
I was reading some of the comments ... I want to say Melinda YOU are AWESOME to be supporting your sister the way you are. I know so many adults with special needs who are stuck living in group homes and other undesirable settings... It is so wonderful that you are willing to support your sister so she can have a full life and participate in the community and be around family and friends. I know so so so many who are not permitted because all their family turn their back on them and the government isolates them. Thank you for being a wonderful sister.
Hi Melinda, just wanted to say you are such an amazing person and please do not let anything in life change it. You are an inspiration to all young women, showing us that it is possible to walk out stronger at the end of it. Sending love and blessings to the whole Crazy family from South Africa
Love your channel! I also lived in Spokane for 24 years until I moved back to my hometown in the Columbia River Gorge area almost 3 years ago. Keep up the great work you two.
You both seemed a little sad in this vlog. I know there was a lot of questions being thrown at you about being a young mom, failed relationship, your mom and then Hailey. Stay strong, know that every path you take in life will always make you stronger. Stay true to yourself, to each other and know, life is good!!!
My mom re-married and my step sister was 10. She had been adopted by my stepdad and his first wife. The first wife sent her to live with us. My mom wanted to adopt her but my sister had already been through two moms and didn’t want another. My mom got sick when we were adults. My sister finally wanted to be adopted and she was 46. My mom adopted her. It’s never to late to do it.
I think both of you are such wonderful role models. Jamie, you made a hard and selfless decision. I am so so proud of you! Your siblings have a wonderful big sisters to look up to.
Awww bless you heart jamie Can tell you miss hali so much . Fingers crissed shes home soin so you can give her a sister hug . Melinda wow what can i say . You are an amazing young woman . So kind caring and totally loving to all your family . Not many people like you in this world. So lovely to see how you are with jamie too . An amazing sister bond .

Im in my mid 40s now and no way near as mentally strong as you are . But i try every day. Your ladys are both an insperation to us all . Send lots if love all the way from the channel islands xxxxxxx
Melinda I'm so glad you made a channel. It's great to see you, jamie and Scarlett. I just started watching your family channel about 6 months ago. I'm 26 years of age and I can relate to a lot of things you have mentioned before. You ladies have a great day!
I asked this before so forgive me but I'm really interested to hear about u growing up, I know Jamie and your dad have the same special needs, was your mum special needs aswel? I wondered how that affected your development growing up as you are so intelligent and amazing x
I love your alls relationship.. I had a special needs sister--she was my everything.. (she passed from cancer) Your relationship w/ Jamie reminds me of me and my sis.. keep up the AMAZING.
Melinda I know Im an outsider looking at only a small glimpse of your life. However I am so happy you and Ricky are not together anymore. While watching your hike video and knowing you were a new couple. I as an mom and a grandmother didn't like how he just walked off in front of you not once checking on you. You deserve someone who makes you feel special and loved.
I cried right along with you Jamie. Bless your heart. You are such a beautiful, loving and caring young woman. You can tell your family means a lot to you. I follow all the “Crazies” now that I found you and Melinda. Have a fantabulous week. Shelli 💕
I don't like questions when it's so personal and I have a problem with it. I feel if you want us to know you would tell everyone. There needs to be a positive balance between you and your fans. Unless you want to answer certain questions you don't have to answer. If you don't want to answer just say "I'm not going to answer that question." And it's okay to do so. Hey what if you asked your fans personal questions then it would be fair. LOL I love you girls and your channel.
Hey Melinda and Jamie I love watching your channel, and the crazy pieces, n middles, I was also adopted and blessed with a amazing family, love you guys from Australia 😘
Jamie, been watching you on crazy pieces for a long while. You have the heart and soul of an angel. Your kindness, compassion and loving self is both inside and out. Lovely lady. Looking forward to seeing more of you.
I really love your videos. I'm from New Zealand too. Better put us on your list to visit one day. The wildlife does not try to kill you... We live in the future, so it's almost like time travel... Beaches everywhere! I had never thought of the question of how Scarlett and Aurora are related. Yeah that is a bit tangled. It made me think of a song called 'I am my own Grandpa" which is a way more complicated relationship. As long as you are in a lighthearted mood, it's worth watching (just search on RU-vid). Jamie I'm loving your haircut. It looks really good.
Seeing Jamie without her glasses, my gosh! She and Aurora are twinsies!!! Their facial expressions are identical! Also, Melinda...I think it’s amazing that you are willing to share more of your story! Very brave! Just what I saw from your Crazy Pieces video, it must be incredibly painful to relive and I think it’s so admirable that you’d share for the benefit of others!
Hi Jamie and Melinda! So glad you guys have your own channel! I could watch you do Q&A's forever! Some questions (only answer If you feel comfortable): - Growing up, was your bio-mom involved in your lives? I've heard you mention your bio-dad many times, but haven't heard about a mom. Do you have a relationship with her now? How did she and your dad meet? Do you have any specific memories that stand out about her? - Melinda, you had a child quite young (me too!). I know your family is religious, and LDS discourages let's just say...'relations'...outside of marriage. Did your pregnancy cause any tension within your family? Their faith is clearly important to them, but they also seem to be progressive and understanding. - Jamie, can you tell us about how you felt meeting the Pettit family for the first time? What was your life like before them, as in, what was your typical day-to-day like? When they came out to Michigan, were you nervous? How did you feel about coming back with them to Arizona? Thank you SO much! Adore you both! xoxo -Ella
Melinda, good advice to your sisters. I will say to you what I say to my children. Pay attention to how they treat and talk to you. 2 Pay attention most especially how they behave toward and speak about others. Number 2 will reveal their true self. Most importantly find some one with the same faith and values. You are young beautiful lady. Dating is how you weed out the ones that are not meant for you. Keep posting.
You two are great. Jamie, you have such a beautiful heart. I felt so sad for you when you were crying. The love that the crazy families have for each other is amazing. Keep up the great work.
Melinida do u ever fell like ur raising both Scarlett and Jamie? Jamie do you still like Marilyn Monroe? Are you planning on getting your permit and learning to drive? Both What ur favorite part of living in the valley? We're either one of you bullied growing up?
Give Jamie a giant hug for us! I can feel her pain about Halie. It is never easy to see a sibling struggle. Hopefully The Crazy Pieces move back soon so Jamie and Halie can hang out and spend some time together. 💗💗💗 This was a fun Q&A. I am glad you both have each other, The Crazy Pieces, The Crazy Middles, and your Biological Family. A truly beautiful life full of blessings. 💗💗💗
@@presleecatherine she’s ok now. She was going through a lot of stuff mentally, so she opted to go to a place to help her for about two months I think. But she’s been back home for awhile now and seems to have learned some coping strategies for anxiety etc.
Love that you started a channel! I don't know if this is appropriate to ask since it's for Jamie. I've been wondering how she feels about her Aurora being her sister and bio daughter. I ask this because I've noticed a strong bond between them on vlogs and them running into each others arms as soon as they see each other. This video only supported my impression.
My Uncle used to live in Spokane Washington but moved to Arizona because my Aunt was having health issues and couldn't live in the colder climate anymore.
Jamie, don't cry. Halie will be okay in due time. Guess what... I'm mentally ill. That is due to my biological father being on drugs when I was conceived. I just found out who he was when I was 36. I am 40, and have decided not to have a relationship with him, due to that, and the fact that he still uses drugs. I feel like him creating another life while intoxicated has taken many things from me, including being normal. I can't drive a car, because gas stations scare me irrationally. I had my kids taken due to my mental illness, so I was robbed of being a mom, so I feel Jamie's pain with Aurora. I also have a son who has Asperger's Syndrome. I feel like that is my fault. Being mentally ill has robbed me of many things in life that someone my age is supposed to be doing like having a career, a car, my kids, owning a home, etc. After my mom dies, I have nobody. My kids were adopted and I never get to see them. So, I don't know why I decided to say all this, but I guess it's because you mentioned Halie and I just wanted to say that as a mentally ill person, I can truly say that Halie will get through what she's dealing with, and I see a bright future for her. Don't worry, Jamie, she'll be okay. I admire your strength to get on camera and be vulnerable with total strangers. You're braver than I and I'm a mental illness vlogger. I'm very camera shy. Keep your head up, Jamie. You're a good person. :) Melinda, you are wonderful.
As a former foster child (never adopted) how is the foster system where u live? Were u both in foster care for the same reason or did something only happen to one of u (don’t have to say details) but they removed both of u so u both were safe? Will Jamie always live with u? Love u, Jamie, Scarlett & the whole fam.
I hope that is not seen as a rude question? But has Jamie thought about taking free classes at the community College for speech and furthering her learning of life skills? Also if you could do 1 thing in life over what would it be? I love the bond you and Jamie have. Have you ever had an instance where you were not nice to each other? And what started it?
ive always wondered if jamie understands that she is auroras bio mom to the full extent? does she have any feelings towards being a mom (does she want to be a mom, is she capable of being a mom)? i have a sister who is 25 and special needs who could never understand how to have a baby or being pregnant and couldn’t raise a child. my sister comprehends at a 3 year old level, so its way different but i wanted to know.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaeeeeeeaaeeehh............(I'm just very happy) Yes.. Melinda you pronouns my name correctly and perfectly. And by reading, answering my question and watching it you make my day happier... Thank you And I can't smiling when your are answering my question about advice about love to your sister also that question is likely for me because I'm now 27 but a don't gave a boyfriend all my friends are calling me NBSB(no boyfriend since birth).. thank Melinda for reading and answering my questions..
awww My favorite sisters!! You guys are doing an awesome job with the new channel. I love seeing your smiling faces and so glad we can get this glimpse into your lives separate from the rest of the fam. Keep up the great work with the vlogs Melinda, youre a natural!
You both are amazing. Would love to hear your story from the beginning only what you're comfortable with. Jamie is doing so well with cooking. Way to go Jamie! Beautiful women with beautiful heart's ❣️
For Q&A where is Scarlett when you are filming and don’t show her. 2 does Jamie have some type of income? 3. WHERE IS AURORA’S DAD!?!? Oh and 4.when will you make an intro! 😏😏😏❤️❤️❤️❤️
On one of crazy pieces vlogs they revelaed that Jamie was taken adventage of and she got pregnant after that... I'm not sure what happened after but if i remember corectly they couldn't sue him for some reason? (Correct me someone if I'm wrong) I just wanted to inform, because it might be too hard for them to speak about this themselves and maybe not want to adress it
Seriously? What an insensitive question. First of all, why do we throw the word dad around as if just because you get someone pregnant you are entitled to being referred to as "dad". Sperm donor more like it, especially since the P.O.S person took advantage of Jamie. Maybe next time you might want to re think your questioning. Curiosity is not enough to throw out wild questions that could potentially trigger or hurt or stress the person on the receiving end of our questioning.
I would love to hear as much of your story as you’re willing to share. I don’t want you to share anything you’re not ready to talk about but I would really like to hear about how you got into foster care and your experience in foster care and your side of how you got to the crazy pieces.
Jaime had me crying. I love watching you and your family. I was adopted as well but don't know my biological family. My parents were foster parents and I think they fostered close to 46 and my dad always said he kept the best 5. Keep doing what you are doing. Scarlett you are sooo cute
Hope u answer this question in another vlog but this is for both. How handle your emotions on Aurora? I know Jamie has a close bond with Aurora. I love how they both run to each other. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Melinda and Jamie i have only just come across your channel, I absolutely love the name of your channel. Jamie you are amazing and you can tell that you love all your siblings ❤ . Melinda its brilliant to see you and Jamie with your own youtube channel and remember you only have to answer the questions you feel comfy with answering and I love the relationship you both have with your parents and siblings you really are amazing xx
I love your channel, you are both so natural in front of the camera. Your family is incredible and I feel like I'm not so alone (my Mum passed away last Boxing Day, so it's just Dad and I now) after watching you guys on RU-vid. I'm from New Zealand too, it's awesome to hear that other kiwis are watching as well. Xx
You two are so so so sweet! You two have so big hearts, are so beautiful and so caring. When Jamie cried when you talked about Halie it made my heart overflow❤️ Scarlett is the cutest of the cutest! 💖🦄 Thank you so much for sharing all the answeres. Lots of love from me in Sweden🇸🇪❤️
