After reading the comments some ppl are missing this point Beyonce is doing. B is teaching her daughter stating her opinion but not cutting ppl off not being rude and disrespectful. The adults have a lot of experience. Blu stopped in her tracks as she should. B was doing effective communication
Yes Beyonce was on point. Teaching her manners and to stay in a child's place but still have an opinion. You can be seen and heard a little bit. As she get older her voice can be heard more but in a respectful way. I get it
@@Kardashianforeverrdid you just watch the same video,is it not disrespectful to cut people off while they speak? She let her know that she can voice her opinion but at the appropriate time!!
@@TM-je5esisn't that all kids pushing the limit to see what we can get away with but we ho to far 😂 my child would still be trynna talk. Blue is a kid you can gentle parent not like most of these Alpha gen kids...including mine 🤦♀️
@@anarita6355 who are you to tell me what i should say?? You didnt have to respond to me! HOWEVER... i said that to let everyone know that is my genuine feeling and I'm not saying that because i am a Beyonce worshipper...like you.😏
This is dumb. This has zero to do with race. And if you want to get technical most black American mothers don’t even raise their children the way Bey demonstrated here. Most of the time they yell, scream and go straight to whooping and beating the kid
This also teaches Blue to communicate in BIG spaces. Beyonce pretty much said, listen, wait your turn, stand your ground, and communicate effectively. That way her passion would not be mistaken as emotional and bratty. As Usual, Job Well Done B!!!! Edited: Thanks for all of the likes!
I loooooove this. Someone else said, “Beyoncé is an Elder Millennial raised by a Boomer.” So, it’s gentle parenting with a DASH of “BABYYYYY, don’t play wit me!!” 🥰😂👏🏾
But you can also see that gentle parenting works for Bey. Cuz you clearly see Blue lowered her tone her after Bey validated her concerns but still letting her know it’s not okay to cut people off
@@lisaroyster8045she was born in the business and mom is teaching her early how to conduct her energy on this side of the business aspect .

@@lisaroyster8045Girl what??? She was part of the show and she wants to spend time with her Mom you act like they were discussing something provocative or bad.😭🙄🙄
Definitely appreciate this. She didn't cop an attitude and tell her daughter, "Stay in a child place and be quiet," like we were told and dismissed, growing up. She validated her daughters feelings and corrected her delivery with love and compassion. Blue immediately lowered her voice and showed her mom respect. No cussing, no belittling, no sass. This is how we should be with our babies. Especially oirnlittlenhirls. Much respect.
The fact that she loves her mother’s work from before she was born is beautiful within itself, but the way Bey handled this with so much grace and self control, warms my heart even more! Great job mommy!
@@sanelisiwedlamini7142 I'm not in your house either but I can tell you are a miserable person who needs a hug.😂🤣😂.... Merry Christmas hope Santa brings you a heart. 😂🤣🤣
@sanelisiwedlamini7142 They're obviously going off of what they see, & They're being positive. I'm not sure if you were trying to start an issue with your comment. But you can tell they weren't
Kim has star quality kids and North West is a star for sure! trust me no mother can shush that type of child even if you pay for a degree and masterclass 😂😂😂 They just got it!
What does Kim have to do with this video! The fact that Kris Jenner has raised 6 great kids who are all millionaires/ billionaires not in jail or on drugs .. I’m sure the kardashians are capable of raising kids. Yall forgot Beyoncé sister was knocked up at a teenager. Stop acting like their family is perfect
Capricorn is also an Earth sign...Blu is compatible with virgos ♡ so they can definitely work together as a team as she grows she'll definitely mature ❤️
❤Bey is a Wonderful Mother!❤ Blue is very anxious and creative and excited about The Industry. She loves to learn and contribute. Bey handles her very well. Bey & Jays children are VERY CULTURED ...They speak several languages. Blue is still a child...living unlike any child average people know. I Love that Bey corrects her with calmness and Love amd does not discourage her expressing herself. ❤ Blue Baby!
I am so blessed to have been raised by a black mother. Which means I know THAT tone from a mile away means…”check yourself before you make me get out of pocket” 😂 love me some discipline inducing black mothers!
And that’s the problem. We see it on social media, every day, in the comments section: folks so focused on BEING RIGHT, with no regard or concern for BEING KIND AND RESPECTFUL OF OTHERS!
Lmao I LOVE how the film editors then really cut Beyonce off to the scenes of her performing Diva😂😂😂 one of the best / funniest transitions in the film
I love how she corrected Blue in this situation. Showing respect towards the professionals working with her and still teaching her daughter an important lesson.
You can see that gentle parenting works for Bey. Check how Blue lowered her tone her after Bey validated her concerns but also still letting her know it’s not okay to cut people off.
BEY just like her momma... Check that ass before she turns into a disrespectful young woman... Stay outta grown folks business Baby Blue💙💙🥰I love Y'ALL.... Always team Baby Blue💙💙💙💙💙💙
Shes is teaching her how to be respectful when others are talking. And probably let her know when no one else was around about interrupting when adults are talking. I remember my mother doing this very same thing. By not trying to embarrass me infront of others but also teaching me I needed to be respectful when adults are talking. I really respect B for this!
I love this! Beyonce is teaching her daughter how NOT to be like the typical rich and rude kids in the industry. So many other celebrity moms need to pay attention to this and teach their children this same lesson.
I love how she corrected Blue and it’s clear Blue knew what time it was. She put her head down and went back to writing. Kids should never have adults walking around on eggshells or cutting them off. I’m sure if the cameras were around, it would’ve been a lot more firmer.
@@iantuition It’s always someone who got to add cheap two cents…It’s the loony profile pic for me. Bless your heart sweetheart.Get you some rest honey😂😂
@@MoorBlack it's the dumb ass desperate take for me and the hurt feelings. I would say bless your heart but I don't even care if it seizes up. So wipe them tears off your hurt ass face and deal because you can't do anything else.
She didn't say blue is bad she is saying she should not talk about people like did you not understand what this video is about ? No one is saying she is wrong she was just disrespectful.some people are just really slow
I love how Beyoncé was trying to calm. Her daughter down like all black Mother's do and should.I think Kim Kardashian should take some notes because her daughter talks to her all kinds of crazy, And on social media like a lot.I watched it sometimes and I'm like who's the mother and who's the child. Kim is screwed. Sorry to say Northwest wouldn't be talking that way. If Beyoncé was her mom as I just saw in this video. Just put it that way, so 👏👏👏 to Beyoncé, good job.🙏👍💖😊😁
I feel like the way Northwest talk to her mom , she will physically attack her one day, I had a friend whose daughter who attacked her in her teen years. Ppl laugh but it's not a good thing how NW behaves, not cute at all.
My mom would have slapped the taste out of my mouth. If I talked to her like that. Northwest I'm sorry but if Northwest had a black mama she wouldn't even fix her mouth to even say half the s*** that she says to her mama. now when I was growing up you got whooped with a belt or a switch or shoe.you can't do that nowadays that's why the kids nowadays are so f***** up already. I'm sorry but in my opinion you need fathers in the home. And parents need to start whoopin some kids asses again. Sorry not sorry that's what people need to do. let's get back to that everybody's so f****** sensitive nowadays nobody has a f******backbone. But this is what my generation Gen x is leaving the world to. when we're dead and gone. I wonder if the planet is still going to be here. I highly doubt it.♥️🫤🥹🤧😤🙏🙏😔😏🥃🥃cheers.

Nah when Beyoncé said “blue, baby” I know that tone very well 😭😭😭
Mannnn I do too 😂
I thrid that tone “ u about to get pop”😂
It was definitely the Baby after the blue😬😂
You got one moe time😂
She was nice cuz she was being recorded/with other people. If she was at home it wouldn't have been the same.
Firm and loving correction.
Yes! ☝🏽
She’s a fantastic mother. If I interrupted my dad as a kid I would’ve had my ass beat.
A REAL MOTHER . She’s showing her compassion and how to be reserved in situations! ❤❤❤❤
A real mother? Lol
Let her know, don't be rude because she has money,no disrespect to anyone

Wow. This description is insanely accurate. I'm a Millennial raised by Boomer parents. Excellent description.
That's what I am DEFINITELY 💕 loving the "Blu BABY" in her seriously MOM voice that we all have EXPERIENCED
Blue was in those meeting representing the hive. She was fighting for us 😂😂
Finally we see good parenting from a celebrity! Thank you B!
Good parenting would of been her not being there at all while grown folks discussing business

Me 3, shoot!
The fact that she’s a leftie, I was always told they think differently than us right handers.. she’s full of creativity I bet.
Blu is the manager 😂😂😂😂
She basically saying blue grown folks talkin
EXACTLY 💯 The black mother way of saying "Hey stay in a childs place" in a loving, understanding way!
Yup shoooo did .
Not really. She just taught her how to be respectful. And she ultimately took Blue's advice lol.
Exactly
I respect Bey as a mom she handled this like a gangsta
Gangsta
Blue being left-handed is the only thing I need to knowww-she’s gonna be a STAR y’all
Such a loving mom.
I love that she's Beyoncé to us, but still momma to her kid. Sad to say that's not common with a lot of huge celebrities.
How u know r u with them in their homes and yes she's supposed to a mom to her child there is nothing surprising about that either 🙄

DIVA is my jam too Blu!! I feel ya girl! ❤
She should give some classes to Kim on how to parent in order to raise respectful kids.
Kim has star quality kids and North West is a star for sure! trust me no mother can shush that type of child even if you pay for a degree and masterclass 😂😂😂 They just got it!
@@Loveontop333 yes you can. Respect comes first
Beyonce and Kim are doing brilliant jibs with Blue and North. Take your no having children negativity some place else. Foolishness.
I agree cause North is going to be a problem
What does Kim have to do with this video! The fact that Kris Jenner has raised 6 great kids who are all millionaires/ billionaires not in jail or on drugs .. I’m sure the kardashians are capable of raising kids. Yall forgot Beyoncé sister was knocked up at a teenager. Stop acting like their family is perfect
Im a Virgo but agree with Blu! I love Diva! I remember when I was in 7th grade when it first came out! #FavSong

@@kiwistrwberry82they said THEIR queen. what part of that you didn't understand ?

Perfect parenting using a monotone voice helps to defuse the situation. Notice how Blu voice changed. 💯

And that’s the problem. We see it on social media, every day, in the comments section: folks so focused on BEING RIGHT, with no regard or concern for BEING KIND AND RESPECTFUL OF OTHERS!
Lmao who cares if she was right it’s just a song and she needs to learn how to behave instead of getting her way all the time.
Like I said she sees someone do it in the household so blu did it and if she didn’t want her interrupting she should have never let her in
@@KhsjsjChill out. She's a child. This is normal but she was corrected and it was nipped. Some kids do way worse. Y'all need to lighten up.
@@marquitashiver6141I’m guessing this is her behaviour most times, Beyoncé just didn’t feel comfortable that she kept doing it & there’s cameras out.
🗣Kim K & North, this is how you parent a kid. So proud of Bee 🐝, it's a southern thing
She's a lefty, that explains everything!
I saw this film twice, how did i miss that. 😆
What does being a lefty have to do with this
Ms Tina came out in beyonce they may be rich but the right dicipline is still being inherited and passed down well done Bey
Lmao I LOVE how the film editors then really cut Beyonce off to the scenes of her performing Diva😂😂😂 one of the best / funniest transitions in the film
Beyoncé is the film editor (and the director, and the producer). Lolol.
I love how she corrected Blue in this situation. Showing respect towards the professionals working with her and still teaching her daughter an important lesson.
Kim can take a few notes
That part ☝🏽👍🏽
I understand ❤she’s super sweet the way she handled that.
That was good B. You handled this situation perfectly.😊
Beyoncé did the calm down wave blue did to her and jay when she was little 😂
You can see that gentle parenting works for Bey. Check how Blue lowered her tone her after Bey validated her concerns but also still letting her know it’s not okay to cut people off.
It don’t work for everyone
Its the light bass in her voice and the side eye.
I loved Beyonce's tone it was acknowledging yet strern and corrective.

I Love how she interacts with her daughter
Blue knows a hit when she hears/sees one ❤
Whether you like it or not this shows discipline and then she is lucky to be in grown folks business 😂😂😂😅😅😅
I have to say…that is a real mother moment.
Best parenting. Blu was so respectful and so receptive. Had that been a different Child.. a different North Storm would have been apparent

She is a great mother
Watching this video is a breath of fresh air compared to the video of North giving her opinion about Kim’s outfit
I saw that video. I just shook my head. She will give is headlines in about 5 years.
I love how she validated her while still setting a boundary as a parent
IF BLUE DIDNT SAY THAT WE WOULDNT HAVE GOTTEN “SHE AINT NO DIVAAA”
This is so cute 🥰 Blue getting a chance to hear Diva 😍
Yes she is teaching her manners and how to be respectful when expressing herself.
TEACH
TEACHING RESPECT FOR OTHERS
Being a Mother never ends ❤
Lolol why she’s sounding like kourtney K with the “calm down” I’m waiting for her to say “you’re acting wild “😂
