as a 21 year old who would consider myself not fully conservative or liberal i notice most of my generation heavy on the left side and think that every emotion THEY PERSONALLY feel is how everyone else is supposed to feel.
That's because if we as parents say no, they'll get what they want from friends, parents or friends, and even teachers. This is easily starting in preteens.
Yes.Yes.Candace i agree 100 percent everything starts in the home and the upbringing ...coming from a family of 7 I know that's your children will have a strong stable upbringing !!!! Because my parents were the best I think about them everyday ,RIP
Honestly, the " greatest" generation was a bunch alcoholics who tended to think molestation was ok as long as no one else knew about it. The " greatest " generation created the Baby Boomers. The Baby Boomers are Hippies! Sorry, but the " greatest " generation churned out the worst generation of hippies and ultra feminists. Why? Because the " greatest generation was suffering from PTSD, alcoholism, and covert issues.
Candace Owens was gangster at that college conference. She literally just didn’t care she said it how she meant it. I don’t think she wanted to be there . She looked tired from being pregnant.
To keep things in perspective... the grossest are still small in numbers, as they’ve always been. They’re just more vocal And noticeable in modern times.
Result of ‘everyone bring a winner’, not being told no or being able to express whatever emotional whenever and wherever. They think the world revolves around them
It's when parents don't parent correctly. They don't respect their partners and children. A child needs to be raised in a home where respect is shown in order to withhold it. Like Candace said, parents need to parent correctly.
👏👏👏👏 I had five children in the mid60s to the late 80s. I stayed home &raised my children, daycares were just coming in, I was determined to be a stay at home parent. My husband worked a full time job in industry & on his days off he helped his dad in the sugarcane field. There was nothing we were without. If we couldn’t pay for it we didn’t get it, when my 5th child was born I figured we needed a supplemental income so I worked for 15 years until my baby girl d graduated high school . She put herself through college as 24 of my other children. I am now 76 years old, it seems I blinked & now my children are adults. I still miss the time I took away from my youngest child. I am so happy to have invested that time I had with my children.
I think this image of a very pregnant, very perturbed Candace Owens will go down in icon history. A mother, a real mother, who knows sacrifice, love beyond compare, etc… up on the stage in her most difficult of trimesters, fed up with the youth she’s trying to save. I love everything about her
To those parents who made the mistake early on in going along with this gender crap because we thought we were doing the right thing, it’s not too late. I’ve been walking it back for over 2 years. Its hard to admit it publicly but I want you to know you are not alone. It’s hard. It is. But I have to. You have to. It’s not too late if they are still under your roof. Step up.
I attend all of my childrens after school activities and chaperone all of their field trips. I notice a lot of the children who act out have no boundaries outside of school and are being raised by wire parents who don’t emotionally support their kids at a young age, an appropriate age for needing emotional guidance. They grow up to be the adults who have a difficult time recognizing and coping with their emotions. They also struggle to relate to others emotions, so they act out when things don’t go their way. I really do feel very bad for these young adults, because I can only guess what kind of parents they had. I truly believe, for most, it’s just a phase. The harsh reality of life will set in eventually. Hopefully.
@@Cutiekiwi9 it was a phase for me. I hated my dad cuz he was “abusive” when I was growing up. So I was super codependent on my mom and I have 3 older sisters that are my world. I was the baby. And im a biological male. But I was extremely feminine up until I got out of high school. I remember painting my nails and wearing fishnets and skinny jeans and all sorts of stuff. Kinda punk vibe I guess? I wanted to do ballet all throughout school but my dad said it was for girls. I wanted to play flute in band but my dad said it was for girls. I remember getting punished for trying to leave the house wearing perfume. I remember crying to my mom saying “I just wish I would’ve been born a girl” But I will say at no point did I ever say or believe that I WAS a girl. And sure enough after getting cheated on and left for average guys, scum bags, and in some cases actual physical abusers, I changed up my style. I no longer paint my nails I dress normal I removed all of my piercings. And I feel great. Never gotten so much positive attention from women now that I wasn’t actually trying to be one. It literally feels like going from beta to alpha. Everyone’s experience might not be the same as mine but… and of course later I’d find out my dad was REALLY abused as a child and his dad left his mom to raise him alone and he drew blood when he hit him. My dad never did that hed just hit the shit out of me and spank me. Never drew blood. I don’t condone that. But after it all I feel stronger. I don’t think I’ll have to do that to my kids. I’ve put a lot of thought into alternative methods. But what I will say is… I’m glad I’m no longer in that phase. And I do feel more comfortable with being a man now. More so than I’ve ever been. I’m proud of it, actually.
@@bluesunset-5such a thoughtful comment. Thanks for sharing your experience. I’m sorry you struggled so much as a kid. I’m glad things worked out for you and you realized you are in control of your own future and choices. I hope other kids read this and can relate to your experience.
@@bluesunset-5 From an outsiders perspective, it sounds like your dad was emotionally negligent and discredited all of your interests. It doesn’t surprise me that you acted out to earn his attention. Sounds like you carried that behavior into your adult life, which landed you in with the wrong crowd, but you gained some life experience and gathered enough wisdom to change your own behavior. I guess that’s the end of all phases, but have you ever thought about what lead you to start the behavior in the first place? I’m happy to hear you feel more confident now! Do you ever think about how the decision to change your appearance will effect your life in the future, aside from the newfound confidence? Lol. Sometimes I think about what my life would’ve been like if I hadn’t have found my meaning. A great book is Mans Search For Meaning by Viktor Frankl. He talks a lot about trauma, addiction, behavior, and how our “bad habits” relate to our existential vacuum. There is also a famous quote by trauma Dr. and ADHD specialist, Dr. Gabor Maté “is not what happens to you; it is what happens inside you as a result of what happens to you..”.
@@Cutiekiwi9 oh I mean yeah. Me and my dad butt heads a lot. It’s more like I never forgave him until I figured out what his life was like so it made more sense to me. Again I don’t think I have to repeat his actions. But I’m not crying about it anymore. Not to mention my mother raised me and I loved my sisters but my dad easily was making 80% of the house income. And everything he did was because he wanted to treat me as a man. I’d ask why he never would touch my sisters when they acted up. It’s cuz they’re girls. I got sexually harassed at work by my manager. To the point that I was able to get her on record on my phone saying terrible things. I showed my dad I was like well what do I do. And he said not to do anything. And I was like if I said any of those things I’d be in jail. And he said that’s just how the world is. All of my therapists had been women. My psychiatrists all women. It was a while before I started trusting men. And it seemed like my entire idea of men was based around my father. I’m not perfect and I’m still in a sticky spot in life. But everything he said normally ended up being true in the ballpark. And at this point I am pretty boyish I mean my whole music taste changed (I’m involved in the music industry where I’m from) I went from acoustic lullabies written for unappreciative women to starting mosh pits with my bros 😅 I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Again everyone’s experience will differ. Now I DJ clubs in the college town I’m from. My dad taught me how to DJ it’s his side gig whenever he’s not doing his actual job. And I’m making alot of money through it now. It ultimately depends on what you want out of life. Grade school doesn’t really matter to me anymore. I’m at least thankful I have a dad. I know how all my friends without dads turned out. I can only be so lucky. (Not sure if this answered your questions)
Sadly society guilts women who desire and decide to stay home and raise their children. You are made to feel inadequate and "lazy" for not having a job aaaaannd trying to raise your children. A mind divided is not focused on the intricacies of caring for children and a family. In all actuality it's more efficient and cost effective for the mothers to stay home and nurture her children. Childcare costs alone, will send a family into poverty, and caregivers aren't authorized to discipline and properly correct children. The parents have tremendous guilt that filters down to the caregivers, that's where the "safe spaces" and "trophies for all mentally cones from. They look for every opportunity to obsolve themselves of guikt and make the child "feel good". They throw carnivals instead of birthday parties, they dreas them for photo shoots in Vogue, and get them over involved in every possible activity. thats why we now have "club sports" instead of regular school sports. 🤷🏽♀️ At our house we had regular sleepovers for birthdays and my daughter had to choose one activity that she excelled in and was passionate about. Thankfully it was dance and the arts. In Texas outdoor sports are brutal! sitting outside in triple digits in both spring and fall, not too mention summer conditioning is a true labor of love. FYI- I was a single mother, not by choice but out of necessity. At any given moment you have make decisions that are best fkr your child. For me, being in a home free of addiction and violence because of said addiction was the best choice. The breakdown of the American family started with WW2. Taking women out of the household to enter the workforce; building bombs to support the American war machine. 😢 Granted our government's involvement was needed but the price that American citizens paid and pay is beyond comprehension. ✊🏽🇨🇱
And fathers need to step up and be fathers again, so stop just saying moms because dads are not doing their jobs right either. It takes two to raise the children not just one.
@@silverlow this as well, I can not express how disappointed I am in men in general. Half have gay tendencies, or they are BI. No testosterone at all just estrogen & Then there’s the ones that are boys who don’t or can’t have an responsibility at all. There’s very very few actual MEN who have their shit together and want a decent woman and just are amazing at being men that are hardworking want to have a family and actual do what they say.
Amazing question I would love an answer too. It seems that if we don’t agree with them the go full-on defensive mode and stop listening and start attacking… 🥺
Totally agree, real parenting needs to come back. However, when you have cps telling kids "if mom yells at you let me know" This will never get better.... parents are afraid to give actual discipline when needed because the kids know all they have to do is threaten to make a call 🤬😢🤬😢🤬😢🤬
SPOT ON!!!!! Yes totally agree! That’s what we are doing with our children… I’m a stay at home mom that Homeschools! I’m raising good well rounded humans
Candace, as much as I agree with you, I attribute this decline in rationality and common sense with today's young people, to a serious lack of parenting from us in the previous generation...why? because the laws that were passed for human rights are taken to an extreme and we end up with a generation of self-entitled whinny brats.
Pfft, it has nothing whatsoever to do with Human Rights laws and everything to do with individual laziness and self-entitlement. Stop trying to franchise out responsibility, parents who upheld this didn't and never have raised self-entitled whiny brats because of laws or any other external factors. SMH.
You're spot-on, Candice! On a separate note, I I think I saw you in Paradise Valley AZ at a WALMART store (Cactus near the former PV mall). I was open carry, and you were with a small male child. I recall sensing initial concern but smiled at you both, and it seemed to chill the mood. This was a couple of years ago now.... I won't get a response, but I called my wife to tell her (at that time).
I agree! My daughter wants to go to uni but I don’t want her to be brainwashed, but I can’t stop her. But hopefully her good upbringing in our stable home will put her in good stead and she will make good choices!
You do have a choice of where she goes and if you pay for it or not. You also have influence over your kids until they are about 25. So you should not throw away the opportunity to guide her in choices and also marriage. There are several good colleges left in the US, like Hillsdale and Franciscan. Places where one can not only get a real, quality education but also meet a quality spouse.
Thank you and i hope a lot of people hear what you’re saying Ms Owens. Im glad my 4 children are all over 30 and act responsible and are law abiding but now I have grandkids below age 10 and im worried again😢
Raised by the internet, smoking ban closed all the pubs which stopped the community spirit ad the working class used to finish work and go to the pub, weekends everyone would gather at pubs. Government put up taxes and encouraged women to work so mums had no time with their kids and everyone was so stressed with work they had no time for others. There's no neighbourly spirit now. We also encouraged schools to cancel sports days etc, stating that there is no winners or losers as it upsets kids, so kids grew up feeling like it didnt matter how hard they try its all good. This generation is now self absorbed and egotistical, we messed them up.
I totally agree. Im 70, I look at my 41 yr old daughter., and say " how did I raise such a smart,beautiful, responsible, respectful and loving daughter on my own. Shes a great Mom, who has a 13 yr old that is beautiful, smart and responsible. My grand was accepted in the NATIONAL JUNIOR HONORS SOCIETY. Excels in speech and math. She has found her niche in public speaking. Wrote and spoke in front of 400 on the subject of INDEPENDENCE. She plays pianos and clarinet. Runs marathons with her Dad. She was rewarded a certificate of Citizenship. She is also being raised with her Mom. But her Dad is very involved. We have never missed a program since pre-school. Plus she is the youngest in her grade because her parents pushed to get her in school because they knew she was ready. She is blessed to go to a private school in the midwest. That in itself has had to make a difference. She is already looking at colleges,which Im scared to death for her to go. Shes very ambitious. I suggested to her, maybe start with a private college. Get her basics. Which Im sure she will have college courses before graduation. Im so very thankful for my family. ❤❤
I agree, I keep hearing how all of the “Millennials” are, yet my kids are Millennials and they are hardworking, have very successful careers and happy marriages, I also happen to think I was a good parent.😊
@@AprilReigns18 the youngest is 27 I think. I have kids between 27 and 34 and none of them are anything like what is being described, I’m sure you aren’t either.
As a now-grandmother, I remember a time when I used to hang some of my daughter's artwork from school (first grade). She brought a cute, but not particularly special picture home and announced that I should hang it up and then burst into tears when I said I thought I would leave the current picture up and we could just add the new one to her folder of saved papers if she wanted to. We sat down down and had a long discussion about excellence and how every single thing a person does will not be excellent. It may be their best at that time or for that task with the tools and knowledge they have, but it may not reflect excellence - yet. And that's why we always do our best and strive for excellence, for proudly putting it on display. And we talked about excellence in one area and how there are degrees of excellence. The great painters (she was into art so it helped that I could point to certain artists to make the point) produced hundreds of works, yet are known for a handful each. Because some are just better than others - more excellent. And those are hung on museum walls and the others aren't. She was a fast learner and understood. After that, we decided together whether a new piece should supplant one currently hanging or simply be deemed "really nice" and go in the folder. People need to TALK TO their children!
100 and 50% agreed!.. I have been voicing the necessity of parents going back to being parents and children, children. I am from the “old school” and children from that school were tough values I believe are not tough today. So who can we blame?? I brought up my kids a certain way, and they tough their children the way I did to them, I concluded that parents became tired and therefore neglectful of bringing up their children properly and carefully. Tired because circumstances in their homes such as two parents working ( a necessity today) or one parent family and same scenario. No time, too tired, don’t care. So those so important values, necessary to a proper upbringing and proper society are becoming lost. So we now have a breed of ill manners, disrespectful, obnoxious foul mouth, entitled, children and subsequent adults. Unless parents again take the rains of upbringing and teaching their kids, I see the total decay of society.
true Candace. absolutely true. I know some older people in their 70s and 80s who are also whacked, liberal and woke yet think they are "all that" and these idiots raised kids or were around them acting as role models, most of these were also mean people...........kids are a product of their environment. my sister (who was neglected and also sexually abused as a baby), when she had her daughter, she actually BELIEVED she was right in treating her baby as an ADULT, to make her own choices, not guided at all, spoiled rotten and not nurtured nor really cared for, left in the care of others. now this child is grown up and is an arrogant brat, totally self absorbed, is a "legal" thief (has been totally manipulative and coercive of elder people pressuring them to leave their estate to her alone or threatening them of abandonment) and seriously cares for no one, just about $$$$$$ and control and power. very seriously wrong. I agree with you, Candace, no God in the home, no standards, no morals shown, no teaching of helping others, abortions are the convenient way to handle your "problems", etc. SPOILED ROTTEN AND ARROGANTLY FEELING ENTITLED, so morally wrong. "SINS OF THE FATHER......." goes 7 generations..........
For REAL! I had my daughter in 2004 and I raised her just like I was raised when I was born in 1975. I spanked her in the grocery store when she was being a little shit and I had people looking at me like I was garbage. The elderly woman behind me in the line said " it's refreshing to see a young person actually parenting" my 19 yr old daughter is respectful, hard working, and knows her role!
You are absolutely right Candace, they think there ways and what they say is right. And they are some of the weakest human beings. They can live on their own, they can't pay their own bills, the whine about any work, they believe in getting over on any and everybody, they are absolutely weak individuals
Years ago I told a group of people I had graduated with decades before that our generation was not the best at parenting, that we were too permissive and self-gratifying. No one agreed with me. I was a parent, not a friend. I have six wonderful, grown, productive children and I am so glad that I was and am their parent.
I’ve been saying it more and more… Gen X acts like they are the greatest generation to has ever existed. “We had REAL childhoods! We aren’t snowflakes!” Yet, it was Gen X that produced Gen Z. I’m going to need them to finally accept responsibility for their complete and total dog-shit parenting.
@@megamaze00 Oh wow another salty Zoomer franchising out accountability and responsibility, so stunning and brave, you forgot to mention your loathing of Boomers over climate rubbish. SMH.
@@AprilReigns18 Ha! the very low bar that is post-modern society in terms of expectation, responsibility and accountability is your own and subsequent generation's perpetual 'participation trophy'. Your generation has it easier and with more options and lo0wer expectations than any before yet so many of its members spew vileness spite and manufactured victimhood and blame for anything that is wrong at their elders. I'm not accusing you personally of being like this as I don't know you but what I have summarised here is irrefutable fact.
This is the most important thing I’ve heard in a long time. If parents would actually parent, society would become a much better place. Unfortunately though, children who are extremely immature and have illogical ideas, are having children and raising them how they believe is “right”, yet those parents are children themselves and don’t even know what’s right for themselves.
I am a parent to my child. I saw what was going on in the schools... My youngest is being homeschooled!!! The school is not our Childrens nurturer, WE ARE!!
we live in a generation of children being coddled by sensitivity and it’s a whole new level of cowardice- ppl would pick up their phones and say something nasty or go ina crowd and chant but not sit down and have serious talks !!!
Be a parent, not a friend. Experiencing the 'hard knocks' of life in childhood, accepting what happens etc, and choosing how you react, retry or walk away, is practice for a mature adult.
Third grade teacher here, I've been saying this for nearly a decade. Most of these deficits can be attributed to parents, full stop. Then we, teachers, have to step in and parent. It's exhausting.
Hello...my parents taught me how to respect my elders and then kind of kicked me out of the house...and it was never my parents fault and that was part of my issue was I kept blaming my parents for the way other people were treating me...and for a lot of those kids it could be their first time having a group of friends...and we all have to learn how to survive...like it wasn't my parents that wrongfully diagnosed me then treated me for said diagnosis...I get harassed by officers all the time for it...that is not my parents fault...my mom didn't have the time to "parent" me...but they were always there for me...and part of fitting in with new friends is learning how to respect the others...some people just suck you know...while others have this understanding that another does not...and when it comes to friends and standing up for it is kind of like ride or die mentality...but my friends never had my back...anyways I wrote another comment and accidently scrolled...Thanks for standing up and stuff...and thanks for being here.
They think being anything except who and what they were born as , makes them a brave hero. Think, it all started with everyone gets a trophy 🏆, everyone is special and this is where it lead to!
Love yah Candice. I think that your the smartest person in my time. And I love the fact that your a young beautiful black woman. I would love to see you run for office. You go girl!
