Fatima Sy hey sista girl! Yeah but I like Loni bringing some fun to the table. Ready for tonight? Im trying to keep myself optimistic for tonight´s episode. I hope Olivia Carolyn Pope´s brain can wake up and smell coffee, and think properly.
lucecita19 GURRRL forget the episode, what about next weeks promo!? I have theory that just as Fits is boutaa dumb her Ass she reveals that she pregnant
Fatima Sy Really? What makes you think that? Because she said,she doesn’t want to lose him? I always thought the pregnancy story would be up to season 6 ,7 or 8. But I know Fitz its going to explote, when he finds out the truth and she deserves that. She even deserved Jake´s lecture yesterday. The only thing that maked me mad was that he as disgusting as he is, he tried to kiss Olivia, and im glad she wiped his disgusting saliva off her face, Last episode she started to think by herself, I have to congratulate Olivia she finally woke up. But it still about to go down on her, because she had her chance to tell the truth and she didn’t. They are a long list of people waiting anxiously to go running and tell Fitz what happened such as Cy, Mellie,Jake,Rowan,and including me .
No Adrienne and Tamera are right. If someone is PAYING you to listen to their problems, there's a chance they don't actually care and they're just doing it for the money. They might just tell you what you think you want to hear. It might not be genuine. It might just be because they're getting paid
+Mamie Rogers The service is not paying them to care. The service is paying them to give you the "feeling" of a mom. Nothing wrong with being paid for helping people. Being paid does not exempt one from caring about their work. If that's the case, doctors and nurses should not be paid. Lawyers should automatically care about their clients and volunteer their time, along with cops and firefighters. Why pick only certain people to no compensate for their time?
+Mamie Rogers its not even might !!its 100% a mother carried u nine months in her womb there is a special connection!! she understands ur pain wuthout u even explaining! she will understand u more than anybody else in the world not even a dad can be compare to her let alone someone ur paying , atleast if the person is doing it for free then we can say well atleast they care ! but this is just insane its like giving free money to a stranger for telling u some bulshit u wanted to hear , why cant we just make a friend or atleast someone close
+Mamie Rogers Hey, a fool and their money will soon part. If you pay me for common sense advice I'd totally go ahead and give you the advice, but if you want me to help you manage your life and become your personal "Iyanla," that's going to cost because that requires time and effort. I really feel like this service was a front for some type of kinkier business because there's no way like Jeannie and you said that someone can put a price on organic motherly advice. The average caring mom will give you an answer from the kindness of their heart, but once you start becoming extra needy more than likely they are going to get tired and you (if you're sane) are going to offer them a small monetary token because you feel bad. Maybe this business just expedites that process.
I feel like Tamar had the best argument. People pay psychiatrists to help them solve their problems, what's wrong with paying a motherly figure to make you feel better. Even if she pretends to care, if it doesn't show and only makes you happy, I don't see the problem.
Caloota -1. I’m mad I’m seeing this in 2020 🤦🏽♂️😭 2. Tamar prolly did have a good point .. but no one peeped how Tamera jumped back / responded to Adrienne’s point after Tamar cut Adrienne off ¿😖🌴🕶🌳 .. iss like .. they all cut eat other off but girr 😩.. not only did Tamar cut Adri. off she didn’t say “ I’m so sorry to cut yu off however .. ” {still not cool to cut off} 3. when geeny* ( I know thass not how yu spell it 🥺) went to interject Tamar, Tamar said “ Holon ” Kind of too confident az if she been had the mic 👀 and thass why it kinda got awkward.. cuz ppl thought they waz juss gonna keep going and the “ goody 2shoez ” *Tamera* Respectfully ignored Tamar like she wazn’t there cuz what she did waz rude and her going back to Adri’s point like that showed it .. *Snapchat hand* 💅🏽periodt. 💅🏽.
@@Zaelynn007 u reaching far As hell Adrienne wanted to hear what Tamar meant by her lies it a talk show she responded to Adrienne after she lok at tense and said she agree with the non genuine thing in it
Say what ya'll want bout Jeannie and her momma, but one thing ya'll can't say is that they aint HUSTLAS! Jeannie done mapped out a business plan halfway through the conversation. Make something outta nothing!
+madeyoulook It was damn good business plan too. If the creators of the business are watching they should take that advise because it was actually a great idea. I can see lots of college students making use of the home cooked meals part
they didn't really discuss WHY someone would legitimately use the service, like if their mother is not around or need someone to confide with that doesn't know them...
uhhhhh mentors get paid.. medicaid! counselors get paid psychologist and psychiatrist get paid! you do pay people to care! i think its an excellent service.. what about the people who have lost their mothers or have terrible moms that you wish you could have another one to call on! I'm all for it!
+D wan I totally agree with what you are saying, I guess this service would be best suit people that have lost their mothers and are feeling a bit down on certain holidays i.e Christmas, Mothers day etc. I think the best way to go about it though would be to keep using the same mom and build a friendship with that person so there are more feelings felt behind the friendship rather than "just being paid to be there". The best emotion that a person can witness is the feeling of unconditional love and the best people that give that are mothers whether they are yours or someone else's. The maternal instinct never leaves a mother when their kids grow up so this also could be good for women that have adult children that have all flown the nest.
***** i dont know about that... i'm motherly whether i'm at work or in the community and I know plenty of women who are motherly as well. i've never had children and my nickname in middle school was Momma Neya! motherly personalities are present no matter the circumstance. but i'm not arguing. i just disagree.
When Tamera said "40 dollars?!?" , all I could think about was the scene from Baby Boy when Tyrese was selling that dress. I know I'm not the only one who thought about that 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@chantelshernelle7722 its a feeling of grief and loneliness parents may feel when their children leave home for the first time, such as to live on their own or to attend a college or university. Also, its not a clinical condition
The week after my mother died, I had my first wedding dress fitting. I started crying and you know what? The other woman's mom...she didn't charge me. She came up, gave me a hug and said "I'll be your mom today". And she would tell me how beautiful I looked, the whole appointment. That woman was a beautiful woman, and though I don't know who she is, but I appreciated her in that moment. You don't charge someone to be nice and help someone out of a rough time. That's not ok.
Regardless of anything there are people out there who don't have a support system or circle of friends or a big family they can relay info to and receive solid info back. They are really in literal terms "alone". So if $40 dollars an hour is what someone has to pay to feel cared for, to feel loved by someone else. Best to believe they will pay that. They want to feel like they count, like they matter.
Comment section is worrisome as hell!! They rush to see who can be the first to comment something about Loni because they know it'll get likes! Motherless children SMH
We live in such a culture that some people, even though they have their 'real' mom (or dad), they still lack that feeling of closeness with a parental figure. For someone like that, I can honestly see this sort of thing working. It's why, like Adrienne mentioned, Big Brothers / Big Sisters programs have been around for years! I don't see the hate. And it's not JUST advice, I don't get why they got so stuck on just advice. Frig, look at social media and specifically the comments left on TH-camr's videos!! People are calling 25 year olds "mom" and "dad" because they lack that feeling of a loved one. Our culture is THIRSTY for familial love. Who cares if there's a price tag on it; it benefits everyone involved, so why not embrace it? People ate up Uber and this is practically the same thing, just without the rides. Come on now.
"You can't pay people to care." -Adrienne. No shade but how do you explain nurses, EMT's or hospice workers, Adrienne? I think she was caught up in the convo then got tunnel vision on her argument.
Me personally I wouldn't! But I think for someone that doesn't have a mother because they died or for other reasons or a motherly figure it could work for them.
Why not go volunteer your mothering services to children who don't have birth parents? Think of that situation around Mother's Day or during those times in school where the kids bring their moms in for assembles and such. It must be so hard to be the only kid in your class who doesn't have someone there for you. Even if it's only for a day, it would do well to brighten up that child's life.
Well... I'm a mentor for college Freshmen (I'm a sophomore in college) and 3rd graders. I get paid for mentoring the college students, but volunteer to be a "Big Buddy" to my 3rd "Little Buddy" and I actually DO care! I treat the college students with respect and help them with registering for classes and invite them to campus events and care about them getting far in college and doing well even if I'm getting paid for it. So I disagree with Adrienne and Tamera. Just because the Rent-A-Mom or whatever it's called gets paid doesn't mean you don't care or aren't being genuine.
When they first introduced the topic I thought it was an amazing idea. My mind first went to the people who didn't have a good mom, or who never had a mom at all. Theres a void there. If you could have a "rent-a-mom" come over for a couple hours that would be such a beautiful thing. What if someone has never experienced their mom combing their hair while they sit on a couch cushion between their legs, or making them porridge while singing to them...or all those little motherly memories that the rest of us have and take for granted.
As much as I like this show these women are forgetting that not everyone has a mother figure who is present in their life or who they can depend on. What about people who's mums have died? What about people who have turbulent or bad relationships with their mums? What about people whose mothers are mentally ill and they don't know what day of the week it is let alone who their own children are? Or what if they've even been thrown out of the family home by the mother? Not all women have the motherly instinct. My mum certainly doesn't. She's so narrow minded and religious I don't even bother trying to ask my mum for advice because all I'm going to get is a lecture about how I'm going to hell. No thanks!
i totally agree with tamera and adrienne. If you're paying for the services then don't refer to the person as a "mom". It's unnatural for the warm and fuzzy tender exchanges between mom and child to blend with the business of it all. Call it something else, not mom
i was actually in bbbs in NYC for about 3 years! well, it was only for 1 because let me tell you i had an AMAZING big sister as per say. we did things that was beyond the programs limit such as having sleep overs & visiting each others house (we werent allowed to do that in the program, so we decided to book it) and that program is actually phenomenal. i know you may think it would be awkward but it really isnt. people dedicate their time for that! my "sister" and me were 2 opposite people. growing up in NY i was bullied a lot for liking kpop, being weird, crying a lot. and she made me feel very welcome. she is a filipino who graduated with her masters & works for bank of america & i grew up in the projects. we were 2 different lifestyles & both of us together was amazing. i did take her for granted at one point because i was so young but now i regret it lmao. we're still in touch and we're planning to meet soon. i met her when i was only like 9? in the 4th grade & im now in the 10th and i wish everyday i could be having a new adventure with her haha
My first thoughts about this service, was that would be great thing for people who have sadly lost their mother, grandmother etc. No they can't be replaced but to have someone to turn too when they need-that can make all the difference. Someone not their own age, older and who will listen to them and be a soundboard, give advice or just be motherly company when they need it the most. It's extended charity. With the pure intention it can be amazing. This also could include a friendship service and help the silent growing issue of loneliness. A lot of older people get really lonely and would love to 'rent' a friend. Some honest friendly company, with no hidden agenda. That's what an inclusive society gives you. We seem to have lost that these days, the village no longer raises the child, its only left the parents-and that's not always easy. Working all hours, paying increasing rent and bills etc. in a world which sometimes leaves you speechless. We need more good deeds, so this idea is a great start! #motherslove
I was thinking if I was rich, I would buy all the orphan kids in my neighborhood a mommy for an hour but that would be really sad cause an hr wouldn't be enough and you should never have to buy someone's love. Things like that are priceless.
I think this is a great idea! I'm not a mom but have had people offer to pay me to listen to them and suggest I become a psychologist or life coach because of my advice. They say the same about my Mom. I think if you're a genuine person and you have a gift of sharing wisdom/advice, it's no different than any "skill" or gift. I think the term "rent a Mom" is what's throwing people off...but it's catchy. I like it and I'm here for it. Plus, like Tamar said, if certain knew they had to pay for your undivided attention, they would stop repeatedly blowing up your phone.😊
“You cannot pay someone to care.” Lol literally that’s what nannies and house helpers do all over the world. Kids develop bonds with their nannies and treat them as second moms or older sisters.
I did big sister success program for a year and it’s 15 years later and she’s still with me doing excellent; mama mai is the best and funny; she’s seem wise and so strong; Vietnamese mom thing lol; all my aunts are like mama mai,🤓🤩💕💕🥰👍😍❤️❤️
The most disturbing thing about their responses is that they didn't discuss the uglier side of this there's a lot of abandonment out there. This is genius actually. Just like you pay for a service you could pay a mother figure some never had that its priceless but this way it's affordable for what they're asking. They're talking abt how you can't put a price on a mom its affordable tho $40? You nvr know what someone is going through financially you might be paying her bills they're getting paid to focus on you. You ask just anybody they'll tell you whatever but you're paying and saying I value your time. Thank you for this service my mental state isn't okay or I'm pregnant I need guidance or I'm not ready to let go of my mom she just passed you need that figure if you don't have one or never had a mother you could get some sort of comfort from this there are so many homeless children in America there are so many trying to hide the fact that they never grew up with a parent or two parent households you know ? Some people don't have resources some are in bad environments. These are wack responses to such a dope idea. Compared to some of the other topics that are relevant enough for this show. I love it. I'm just disappointed in the commentary. Love them to. It's just exhausting living in the hood n not having these things addressed as often that's all. Have a good day tho anyone who took out time to read..
I know I'm late on this, but I think it's ok to rent a mom because some people don't have a mom or a mother figure that can advise them, and in this situation I think it should be ok for them to be able to rent someone that has raised an incredible child, this will help inspire that individual. For example my mom passed away when I was twelve I didn't know much about period, pad and most lady stuff I could have used this service to rent tamera's mom or Tamar's mom. Just saying
Loni is always saying it like it is. Plus i think this service is more like for women that probably don't have positive female figures in their lives. i used to volunteer with teenage foster girl that were not getting adopted and were going to age out of the program. The workers really couldn't really say much to them so it was up to the volunteers to give them love and advice, but once they were out and adults they are completely alone and in a world that is brutal.
How much can you POSSIBLY do in an hour that's worth more than $40? Nothing. The reason mom's are so valuable is because they RAISE you. Just because you have kids doesn't make you more valuable as a person. $40 an hour is crazy enough. Any more than that is ridiculous. And if you pat extra for each thing they can do, what is the $40 an hour for??
I'm with Tamar and Jeannie. IO would tell my friends you want my mom advice you best give her something in return. I would have no problem with her doing. Other thing I thought was maybe a person does not have a mother and would feel uncomfortable going to a friends mom with their problems. SO they call a stranger for that motherly advice.
im a mom, and im gonna link with the company in brooklyn to link it down south, i could give great advice to young women without moms. ill take $40 an hour
FINALLLYYYYYYY Tamar's make up is slaying and I'm so happy she droped down those crazy blonde wigs and is going for something that looks more natural... Finally she looks like a classy woman and it suits her so well !
All of the hosts are speaking from the perspective of someone who has a great mom available but there are so many people whose mothers aren't in their lives for various reasons, (death, bad parenting, arguments, illness etc.) and sometimes they may have moments when they need motherly advice. Then there are mothers out who would love to be there for someone (maybe their kids have passed or moved out) and they wouldn't mind helping those people who need the service. Providing this service would be very time consuming overall for the mother giving advice, what's wrong with getting compensated for your time?
hey I think some things are bad about it and some that are good about it because we can't forget about the people that there parents have passed away because everyone needs advice at one point in their life.
“You can’t pay to care” hold up hold up hold up, what do babysitters do then or nannies? 🧐🧐🧐 I don’t think it’s a bad idea. Paying services doesn’t mean it isn’t going to be in genuine.
I think they thought too deep into it. I would pay if I had a parent teacher conference and I didn't want my mom to know, I'd call " rent a mom" to come be my temporary parent! Lol
![[Full Episode] Why Did I Say THAT?!](/img/n.gif)

Why not go volunteer your mothering services to children who don't have birth parents? Think of that situation around Mother's Day or during those times in school where the kids bring their moms in for assembles and such. It must be so hard to be the only kid in your class who doesn't have someone there for you. Even if it's only for a day, it would do well to brighten up that child's life.
Well... I'm a mentor for college Freshmen (I'm a sophomore in college) and 3rd graders. I get paid for mentoring the college students, but volunteer to be a "Big Buddy" to my 3rd "Little Buddy" and I actually DO care! I treat the college students with respect and help them with registering for classes and invite them to campus events and care about them getting far in college and doing well even if I'm getting paid for it. So I disagree with Adrienne and Tamera. Just because the Rent-A-Mom or whatever it's called gets paid doesn't mean you don't care or aren't being genuine.
but if you pay for a service, someone will end up suing if they don't like what happens because of the rent-a-mom services.
4:41 THANK YOU LONI!!!
4:42 thats theeeee cutest exchange I've seen between Tamar and Tamera (yet).. Motherly bonds are the strongest 🙌🙌
Roni is always in her own world lol I love it!
Alright Roni
i think that would help more people that lost there mum mosty or have bad mum the mum to rent would be a gd thing for them
When they first introduced the topic I thought it was an amazing idea. My mind first went to the people who didn't have a good mom, or who never had a mom at all. Theres a void there. If you could have a "rent-a-mom" come over for a couple hours that would be such a beautiful thing. What if someone has never experienced their mom combing their hair while they sit on a couch cushion between their legs, or making them porridge while singing to them...or all those little motherly memories that the rest of us have and take for granted.
As much as I like this show these women are forgetting that not everyone has a mother figure who is present in their life or who they can depend on. What about people who's mums have died? What about people who have turbulent or bad relationships with their mums? What about people whose mothers are mentally ill and they don't know what day of the week it is let alone who their own children are? Or what if they've even been thrown out of the family home by the mother? Not all women have the motherly instinct. My mum certainly doesn't. She's so narrow minded and religious I don't even bother trying to ask my mum for advice because all I'm going to get is a lecture about how I'm going to hell. No thanks!
Someone can rent me...I got bills and a bunch of life lessons i'm willing to share. If I can get $40 an hour..I'M THERE!!!!!!!!
i totally agree with tamera and adrienne. If you're paying for the services then don't refer to the person as a "mom". It's unnatural for the warm and fuzzy tender exchanges between mom and child to blend with the business of it all. Call it something else, not mom
For the first time I loved everything Loni said in this segment.
i was actually in bbbs in NYC for about 3 years! well, it was only for 1 because let me tell you i had an AMAZING big sister as per say. we did things that was beyond the programs limit such as having sleep overs & visiting each others house (we werent allowed to do that in the program, so we decided to book it)
and that program is actually phenomenal. i know you may think it would be awkward but it really isnt. people dedicate their time for that!
my "sister" and me were 2 opposite people. growing up in NY i was bullied a lot for liking kpop, being weird, crying a lot. and she made me feel very welcome. she is a filipino who graduated with her masters & works for bank of america & i grew up in the projects. we were 2 different lifestyles & both of us together was amazing. i did take her for granted at one point because i was so young but now i regret it lmao. we're still in touch and we're planning to meet soon.
i met her when i was only like 9? in the 4th grade & im now in the 10th and i wish everyday i could be having a new adventure with her haha
LOL omg Tamera looks like Lisa from Sister Sister!!
My first thoughts about this service, was that would be great thing for people who have sadly lost their mother, grandmother etc.
No they can't be replaced but to have someone to turn too when they need-that can make all the difference.
Someone not their own age, older and who will listen to them and be a soundboard, give advice or just be motherly company when they need it the most.
It's extended charity. With the pure intention it can be amazing.
This also could include a friendship service and help the silent growing issue of loneliness.
A lot of older people get really lonely and would love to 'rent' a friend.
Some honest friendly company, with no hidden agenda.
That's what an inclusive society gives you.
We seem to have lost that these days, the village no longer raises the child, its only left the parents-and that's not always easy. Working all hours, paying increasing rent and bills etc. in a world which sometimes leaves you speechless.
We need more good deeds, so this idea is a great start!
#motherslove
Tamar look is everything
I love my mom and she'll tell me what I need to know or tell me like it is! She's the best!
Loni’s hair AND makeup are both 🔥🔥🔥 in this one!!
I was thinking if I was rich, I would buy all the orphan kids in my neighborhood a mommy for an hour but that would be really sad cause an hr wouldn't be enough and you should never have to buy someone's love. Things like that are priceless.
I love when Jeanie talks like her mom she does that so good
Loni looked absolutely gorgeous today!!! WOW!!! Sending you guys loads of love all the way from Trinidad!!!
I think this is a great idea! I'm not a mom but have had people offer to pay me to listen to them and suggest I become a psychologist or life coach because of my advice. They say the same about my Mom. I think if you're a genuine person and you have a gift of sharing wisdom/advice, it's no different than any "skill" or gift. I think the term "rent a Mom" is what's throwing people off...but it's catchy. I like it and I'm here for it. Plus, like Tamar said, if certain knew they had to pay for your undivided attention, they would stop repeatedly blowing up your phone.😊
I'd rent a dad anytime!
“You cannot pay someone to care.” Lol literally that’s what nannies and house helpers do all over the world. Kids develop bonds with their nannies and treat them as second moms or older sisters.
We're not only talking about Mama Mai
I'm from Brooklyn too Adrienne. Also love that shirt!
People: You can rent a mom
Kakyoin: *happy kakyoin noise*
I did big sister success program for a year and it’s 15 years later and she’s still with me doing excellent; mama mai is the best and funny; she’s seem wise and so strong; Vietnamese mom thing lol; all my aunts are like mama mai,🤓🤩💕💕🥰👍😍❤️❤️
Tamar Braxton is Beautiful
0:39 i swear tamar just stop, just because someone is as outspoken as you are, doesnt mean u gotta be rude to them, lift each other up!
U taking it too serious and it's not u dk what she was thinking so stop
+miss m have a seat please girl, and have some water😒
The most disturbing thing about their responses is that they didn't discuss the uglier side of this there's a lot of abandonment out there. This is genius actually. Just like you pay for a service you could pay a mother figure some never had that its priceless but this way it's affordable for what they're asking. They're talking abt how you can't put a price on a mom its affordable tho $40? You nvr know what someone is going through financially you might be paying her bills they're getting paid to focus on you. You ask just anybody they'll tell you whatever but you're paying and saying I value your time. Thank you for this service my mental state isn't okay or I'm pregnant I need guidance or I'm not ready to let go of my mom she just passed you need that figure if you don't have one or never had a mother you could get some sort of comfort from this there are so many homeless children in America there are so many trying to hide the fact that they never grew up with a parent or two parent households you know ? Some people don't have resources some are in bad environments. These are wack responses to such a dope idea. Compared to some of the other topics that are relevant enough for this show. I love it. I'm just disappointed in the commentary. Love them to. It's just exhausting living in the hood n not having these things addressed as often that's all. Have a good day tho anyone who took out time to read..
I know I'm late on this, but I think it's ok to rent a mom because some people don't have a mom or a mother figure that can advise them, and in this situation I think it should be ok for them to be able to rent someone that has raised an incredible child, this will help inspire that individual. For example my mom passed away when I was twelve I didn't know much about period, pad and most lady stuff I could have used this service to rent tamera's mom or Tamar's mom. Just saying
Loni is always saying it like it is. Plus i think this service is more like for women that probably don't have positive female figures in their lives. i used to volunteer with teenage foster girl that were not getting adopted and were going to age out of the program. The workers really couldn't really say much to them so it was up to the volunteers to give them love and advice, but once they were out and adults they are completely alone and in a world that is brutal.
Tamera was so cute: "40 dollars?!" hahahahaha
Loni's hair though
How much can you POSSIBLY do in an hour that's worth more than $40? Nothing. The reason mom's are so valuable is because they RAISE you. Just because you have kids doesn't make you more valuable as a person. $40 an hour is crazy enough. Any more than that is ridiculous. And if you pat extra for each thing they can do, what is the $40 an hour for??
I wish Loni would wear her hair like this all the time
I had a nanny for 15 years, We paid her but she cared about me. So you can pay for care.
adrienne was thinkin she was gonna say her mum wouldnt take the money then was shocked when she said that ahhahas
"Lies." = one of Tamar's best lines.
i like this idea none of them could relate because they all have great moms!! but honestly it would be hurtful to loose that person who has been there
exactly. some of us dream of having parents, period..
I'll tell y'all one thing ain't a woman alive that can take my mama's place
I think these women forget that they're being paid to be on a TV show and voice their opinions/give advice. Oh, the irony!
All the ladies look stunning on this episode. I'm loving it!
Some people try to put a price on everything.
"You cannot pay someone to care"
just watched the segment about Adrienne saying alright too much. Now I'm gonna notice it eveytine she says it. Lol
The way Tamera said $40 at the start had me cracking up for some reason idk why😂
I'm with Tamar and Jeannie. IO would tell my friends you want my mom advice you best give her something in return. I would have no problem with her doing. Other thing I thought was maybe a person does not have a mother and would feel uncomfortable going to a friends mom with their problems. SO they call a stranger for that motherly advice.
Why loni why....😑
That's just a live in nanny. Mind control (0:56) activated 😂.Tamera tried to spit her. "I know more than you" line twice. An Tamar shut her down. (15)
im a mom, and im gonna link with the company in brooklyn to link it down south, i could give great advice to young women without moms. ill take $40 an hour
Loni's hair is perfect!!
I love Tamar's look on this episode
How many times will Adrienne say she's a New Yorker?? 😂😂😂
Nope I sure wouldn't, my mommy is the only one that I would want motherly advice from! I love her!
2:13 when Jeannie tries to agree with Tamar with an "mmm hmm" and Tamar gives her the "HOLD UP!" smh chill Tamar
Rent a mom, is that not what a nanny is?
FINALLLYYYYYYY Tamar's make up is slaying and I'm so happy she droped down those crazy blonde wigs and is going for something that looks more natural... Finally she looks like a classy woman and it suits her so well !
I wouldn't even be able to pay that woman 40 a month...
So when I go to my therapist the advice that he or she gives me is not genuine? That sounds so absurd
Tamar my mom is like my Iyanla
BFV: Iyanla is a witch
All of the hosts are speaking from the perspective of someone who has a great mom available but there are so many people whose mothers aren't in their lives for various reasons, (death, bad parenting, arguments, illness etc.) and sometimes they may have moments when they need motherly advice. Then there are mothers out who would love to be there for someone (maybe their kids have passed or moved out) and they wouldn't mind helping those people who need the service. Providing this service would be very time consuming overall for the mother giving advice, what's wrong with getting compensated for your time?
hey I think some things are bad about it and some that are good about it because we can't forget about the people that there parents have passed away because everyone needs advice at one point in their life.
“You can’t pay to care” hold up hold up hold up, what do babysitters do then or nannies? 🧐🧐🧐 I don’t think it’s a bad idea. Paying services doesn’t mean it isn’t going to be in genuine.
This wig looks amazing on Tamera
And Tamar's outfit is bomb
I think they thought too deep into it. I would pay if I had a parent teacher conference and I didn't want my mom to know, I'd call " rent a mom" to come be my temporary parent! Lol
