Hello 😊 love your channel, I am pursuing in being a cop . Pass my cjbat exam and doing my basic motor test and swimming soon. So nice to get input on a mom/cop because I struggle a bit thinking if I do my career and being mom can I balance it. But I am also RBT and trying to pursue law enforcement field .
Dont forget your pillows and video games
Trump 2024 🇺🇸
I have met many officers who dot want kids cause of what they do. But there are several reasons why people do or do not want kids. I know that for me I can not have kids myself but I would consider adopting.
You are awesome
I'm gonna be honest but i really disliked when people are abusing the 911 calls over their stupidity.
Policing was good back in my Millennial generation eras back in the middle 2000s when bodycams didn't become a thing because I don't like when cops are coddling criminals. Thank you for pointing out this situation, i talk to some Chicago PD and they told me that they was pulled over by cops too. Most cops i had conversation with told me in modern today's society, their bodycams have to be turned on when they leave the police station and back.
I work at Dunkin and i have to say it but it's disappointed to see a lot of cops are not in shape to be honest with you. I would have them come and get 12 dozen of donuts and x large hot coffees with extra cream and sugar. My wife would stop and drink her coffee, she likes to workout, eat healthy and drink plenty of water. She does those workouts that you're doing.
Cop Mom is cool. I made sure that my wife used her judo, kenpo and kyokushin karate but she can't used that in law enforcement or she would get written up. Judo she should used, not the kenpo and kyokushin karate. I also taught her to used their hoodie and ski mask as an advantage to make an arrest.
My wife gave birth to our daughter last year.
Cool thing since you're making bank with your pension benefits superior job security etc you won't be having money issues any time soon
I'm currently training for the physical exam. I'm a woman in my mid thirties. There's zero plans to have any more kids. My husband is in total support of me moving into this career. I'd love to hear some pros and cons on entering this career older in life and as a woman. For some reference, I'd be applying to a rural sheriff department. Any feed would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
I'm training for the physical exam right now, making a career change and really hoping to get into law enforcement and I hope to start a family in the next 5 years (ill be getting married 2026) and I am so grateful for your content especially information like this!
You are running a great channel
I want to be a Police Officer and I would pick the Vest Carrier when I become a cop and the things that I would put on the Vest are Handcuffs Pepper Spray,Magazines,Flashlight and Asp on the Vest and I would put the Firearm,Taser,Radio and Tourniquet on the Belt
Sounds like you will be very well prepared! 💙
tattoos are for gangsters, prisoners and gangmembers, oh and for mentaly not stable people, and for masohist who love pain, and this will never change.
Political failures. Community hatred. Spineless admin. Ridiculous expectations. Mandatory overtime…family life diminishes, health diminishes, mental sanity worsens. God bless our law enforcement officers. I thank God for you.
I meet the physical (strength and endurance) needs of LE - but I am a 5”1 female. Am I too short to become an officer?
No, you are not too short! If this is what you want to do, do it! 😃💙
I start the academy in about a month.. thank you for all the tips!
Amazing! Best of luck! Keep me updated with how it goes! 💙
I'm not a cop but you got me and my wife hooked to this channel because she's a cop. She is 29 and I'm 30. 2 years for her. I trained her into workouts and some judo techniques since being a cop was her goal and she passed her test in the academy.
That is awesome! She is lucky to have your support! Thank you for watching! 💙
You are very beautiful
Im 28 with no post secondary education.is it too late for me to join the force?
No, you should apply now if you want to! 💙
@copmom911 thank you. I have a letter of recommendation from my friend who just got elected to the House of Representatives.
I love your channel! Thank you so much for your transparency and extremely helpful tips. I have had six in seven years. I love my children dearly but do not recommend having them as close as I did. I have always recovered so fast and with my last I cannot do one single sit up. I lost one during Covid in 2020 and had hyper ovulation resulting in back to back pregnancies. Because of how well law enforcement helped to trying to keep our angel here with us it gave me the courage and strength to switch course and pursue law enforcement . I recently got an offer from the sheriff deputy department. I did not expect to hear back so quickly. I was originally told it would take weeks thinking I had time to prepare physically. I am currently three months Postpartum. I am wanting to know what is a safe time frame to allow for a strong recover before trying again. I am so inspired by your story of sharing that you had to try again. Please open to all tips and pointers
I would strongly encourage you to speak with your doctor on that one and a physical therapist. For me, postpartum recovery was extremely difficult and I had to build my body back to being in shape and to a level where I was comfortable with harder physical training. I would not push yourself until you and your doctors feel you are ready. With that said, the amount of time is different for everyone. All police departments will always be there and have vacancies. You don't want to injure yourself or put more physical stress on your body than you can handle...do it your time, not theirs. And if they aren't ok with that, you probably don't want to work for them anyway. Keep me updated! 💙
Hello, I am interested in entering law enforcement, and especially interested in K-9 unit and highway drug busts. I know theres probably not a unit specifically assigned to just that but I would like to know where you think I should start? I have been applying to different police departments of the major cities in the U.S. but I’m not sure if I should apply to state highway patrols/troopers or even homeland security for what I’m interested in. I’m 31 years old with bachelors degree and current army reservist, looking to land a gig at least 65k after academy.
I would ask the agencies individually but your state patrol would be a great place to start 💙
Great video with amazing information Thank you very much
Thanks for watching! 💙
Hello I am 44 years old and since I was 28 my wife and I were dedicated to full time Christian Ministry, preaching and teaching the Bible. Recently I drove a truck for a company for three months and I resigned because I didn’t like it and the salary was no good. So, could that be negative for my application form…??? Thank you
Typically they are looking for abrupt leaving. If you walked off the job, didn't show up one day, or did not give the advance notice your employer reqeusted. If those things were not done, I don't think you will have an issue.
Oh yeah I’m gonna do this
You should! 💙
Cop mom is awesome ❤
The problem is one thing cops lack heavily, training. Six to eight months is not enough to handle the nature of being a cop.
@@Avofan that’s an interesting viewpoint. What do you think would be appropriate training?
Hey! I just came across your channel. I’m a mom of two little ones (9m & 2 1/2y) I just graduated with my criminal justice degree and want to pursue policing. Can you make a video on how it affects your life with kids & if you’re married. How do you manage it? My husbands AD in the Corps so I have a hard time wrapping my head around the possibility of me being able to pursue this career as a mom. Any insight would be awesome and if you make a video on it I’ll be the first to watch. Thank you! You inspire me!
Hello! So glad you are here! I have three children so I totally understand that. I have a video I'm working on about being a mom and a police officer discussing some of the issue you could encounter. As I'll discuss there, I feel like you would need support from friends, family, paid help, etc. But that is coming soon. But do what you want in life. You are probably feeling a calling to law enforcement for a real reason, don't silence that and I hope you can make it work with your family's needs 💙 Keep me updated with what you decide!
I heard a story from the department of public safety here that they had to arrest someone during the oral board cause they admitted to doing drugs before coming in cause they were nervous.
I highly doubt that is correct information. Prior drug use is discussed in great detail during the hiring process...
I like tattoos but I would agree avoid face hands not such a big deal though, I have tattoos but mine are covered by my shirt.
I like tattoos as well! And that's good they are covered with a shirt 💙
I find push ups to be easy for me, I have a lot of trouble with running.
Check out my Police Officer Physical Training video for a few tips on running. Def helps to condition for longer distance running but it is super doable. Although I hate running...I used to love it though 💙
Hi! Thank you for you inspiration in law enforcement it helps build confidence in me! Is it True though that in order to get hired on in a department you have to know someone in law enforcement and see if they would put a good word in for you.?
@@Star-g8z hey! And maybe in some places but def not in mine! 💙
Thanks I needed this video ! I have a personal hate for push-ups 😩😂 and I’m struggling. This is the only thing stopping me from CBP academy 🥹
@@jessicamelchor2724 keep working at it! You can do it!
Great video. Thanks for the info. If I want to work for the school district as a police oficer, is it the same kind of training?
Probably not, most likely they would do a simpler state mandated academy but it would also depend on the state
wow lt. is pretty high up in a police force. just 5 more ranks before you hit police chief.
Lol, just a few. I do not aspire to be the chief. I have different interests and goals. Thanks for watching! 💙
@@copmom911 do you think you could make commander at least?
Your videos have been so helpful! Thank you for taking the time to make them. From your personal experience, what is likelihood of securing a position as a police officer with no formal college education or military experience? What could someone do to make themselves a more desirable candidate?
That depends a lot on the agency. For example, with my agency, that does not make a difference. We train everything our officers need to know. It could make an impact on a smaller agency though or one that has the ability to be more selective... I would sell yourself as a candidate though. Talk about your work or accomplishments in life to show you are a hard worker and committed...
In my case my dad was LE, he passed away in February, and during my grief process I have realized I am not reaching my full potential at my current job. I had always had a passion for criminal justice, and I made it my goal to pursue a career in that field, because I’d had that realization that I wasted years not doing so and realized I’d regret that on my deathbed. I never say this in interviews but I’ll share it here.
Hi! Im a new subscriber! Im in the process of training my body. I feel great and im building my cardio......my plan is to pass my (PT Test) by mid August ....and push my application in right after i pass. While i await the next phase, im focusing on studying basics as you have suggested, cardio, and planks....lol. Im looking forward to 2025.....any advice for sore knees? Has your knees ever felt a little wobbly?
I don't personally deal with knee soreness but if you are able to, I would highly suggest meeting with a physical therapist. They can go over all your aches and pains and give recommendations. It has been so helpful to me and I still see a physical therapist. Keep up the great work and keep me updated! 💙
@copmom911 OK thank you so much for the response, and I will!
I seen a lot of cops are very unhealthy in the police force and i had to balance my meals when i was a former police officer but i drink plenty of water, eat healthy and did my workouts with body strength. Thank you Cop Mom.
Yes, it is true some officers are not the healthiest. Continuing to eat healthy and working out should be continued after the academy and for the rest of your life 💙
I'm not a cop but I want to say thank you for your service. I also do workouts with my body by pull ups at the park, cardio workouts on the Lakefront when it's hot or cold outside.
I also do push ups, jumping jacks, running in peace, squats and more. I'm also the same sizes as you. I'm still working out while I'm pregnant with me and my hubsand's baby on the way.
That is awesome, great job! And exercise, when your doctor says it's ok, is also so good for baby! I exercised during all of my pregnancies 💙
I just applied in my town !
Awesome! Keep me updated! 💙
Hey, whats the best way to answer if they ask you, "How do you feel about using deadly force?" What answer are they looking for, and whats the best way to answer?
I'm not sure what they are looking for...but my response would be how you honestly feel. In general, no police officer wants to use deadly force, however that is sometimes necessary to protect ourselves or others. My desire to live and/or protect others is stronger than someone else's to kill me 💙
😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Thank you Cop Mom for explaining the situation in law enforcement.
Law enforcement did changed through the years when i was in the police force. I had a tattoo but it was on my left upper arm which is a Jesus cross but i covered them. I left in 2019 when i sprained my ankle. I was a no nonsense cop.
Sounds like you were still hired with your tattoos but just had them covered. Thank you for your service and for watching! 💙
