I've forgotten how deep some of Roc's episodes were like. This show tackled a lot of issues that were mainly kept behind closed doors. I really enjoyed watching it back in the day.
Loved the episode when he yoked someone up for threatening his family and his father and brother had to pull him off. They don't make shows like this anymore.
I was a little girl when this show was on prime time TV and although I understood the basic concepts and lessons of the episode, I really have a much deeper understanding and appreciation for the topics now as an adult.
But the abuse was coming from Inside the Home. I agree and NEVER let my daughter spend the night BUT. My abuse was Inside the House and Other family. Please understand that Most abuse comes from a well Known person . Family, family friend, teacher, minister, priest, etc etc....... ever vigilant
@@78MsShortcake I'm so sorry this horrible and evil thing touched your life. You didn't deserve it. I apologize for the pos who dared take your innocence. People act like they don't see, like they don't know and even if they didn't why not believe a child until proven guilty. Most kids don't lie about sexual abuse.
I appreciate the kind words. But I honestly didn't tell until I was an adult. It's like you're doubting what I'm telling you but what do I have to gain telling now? My mom has really hurt my feelings saying she didn't believe me
Shows like this should still be on the air today … Positive shows depicting real life issues!! As a Sexual Abuse/ Molestation/Rape survivor this scene right here hit me 😢. Most men don’t really talk about their trauma . Generational curses are real . We can’t HEAL what we won’t REVEAL!!!
Sending care to your past situation, your right most men don't tell what happen to them because most people think only girls go through things like that❤🩹❤🩹❤🩹❤❤❤
@@shakirahgraham39 Thanks love ❤️ I’m doing fine now by the grace of God . I am a certified mental health advocate an going back to school 🏫 to get my BA in Psychology
@@stephenchristian3636 You're welcome and that is wonderful congrats! Keep staying encouraged. May God continue to pour blessings upon you in your life.
It depends on how close you're keeping. I'm never going to appreciate my dad for basically robbing me of my childhood just because he was afraid of everything. He had valid reasons to worry especially since I'm his little girl but the leash was too short and it didn't protect me from harm anyways 😂
Just as long as you're not suffocating them or keeping them from having **any** social experiences. There's a difference between being careful, and being paranoid/overbearing
Unfortunately too many black families were destroyed after the civil rights movement. I know I’ll get shit for saying this but big daddy government incentivized divorce and single parenting. Black Fathers were taken out of their homes due to that, drugs, and the decadent culture we embraced.
I have a saying . Secrets and Lies ONLY protect the Perpetrators.. Bring it to Light and safe the Next person the Next child. WE need to stop Blaming the Victim!!!!!
This is exactly why my two were never babysat by family, neighbors or friends. No thank you! If they couldn't be with me, then we didn't go. And when they wanted to play with friends they all played at our house! My parents and husband used to complain about my decisions, but I never budged, not on this. Time goes by fast! Now they are 20 and 24 and I have no regrets.
It is so damn funny. when I went to my mothers funeral{ me Youngest of 9} with My husband and 1 Year Old, My Oldest sister said " Im just so proud at you being a mother. You didn't ask anyone to watch your child you and our Husband took care of them etc.." Im thinking .. B you're the one that abused me and every single one of you did something much more than once. there is NO way my child will be aloe with any of you.! My Husband Knew this also we made a Pact.
@kimberlyakin8908 Not really...I was harassed by old perverts but it never resulted in SA..but I have close family members who have been assaulted by degenerates!😞😞😞
I really wish I watched this when I was younger, but they nailed how creepy and manipulative Warren was. I feel so bad for Eleanor. They handled this episode amazingly of how terrifying CSA is resurfacing in adulthood.
This was back in the good old days when people over the age of 35 acted and looked more like adults. At 42 I'm slightly glad my generation is a little bit more laid back but at the same time some of us are pushing it. Can you imagine Charles S Dutton dressing like Lil Wayne back then.
@@tdomonique504yes and back then wayne vs a 42 year old in 2008 is totally different. nowadays wayne being in his 40's and a 25 year old you can barely tell whos who because over a 20 year gap both generations act the same.
This scene is powerful. When you share with your partner anything horrible that may have happened to you, you realize how much they truly support you. They take part of that pain & shame from you & voluntarily lighten your burden.
It dont be outside people it be family too My 2 brother sexual assaulted me from the age of 5 to 13 till I was strong enough to say no and this year I told my mom about it and I'm 42 and till this day my brother deny it and I remember it like it was yesterday and have flash backs often and all I can do is cry.
I pray for your strength and courage to get help. Please try to find a therapist or counselor to talk to. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 You were an innocent child. It wasn't your fault, and you didn't deserve it. You also deserve better than to live with the pain of the memory. Please seek help ♥️
🙏🏾 You are not what happened to you. May God give you strength to fight through any thoughts trying to tell you that you are less than or unworthy. You are not less than, you are not damaged, you are not insignificant. You are an image bearer of God. You are chosen. You are loved. You will overcome & be victorious over your past. ❤ and hugs
@@Breezy81 It was hard for me to open up as well. But when I did, THAT'S when the REAL healing process began. Take your time. You'll open up when you're ready.
I've started watching this show again, recently, so I guess that;s why this has shown up. However, man, this is why, in my family, we've stopped calling people "aunts" and "uncles". Too often, it creates this sense of closeness and trust in a child that enables weirdos to take advantage of your kids. And always keep a close eye on your kids, no matter if it's family or close friends... most times it IS someone they know, because it's someone who can get close to your child and time alone with your child without too much suspicion.
This scene is powerful but on a lighter note, dad in the other room at 0:04 hanging with producers of the show was funny to me. An obvious mistake they left in lol
No offense but I hate it when scenes and like this like telling someone that you love and trust makes it okay and everything will be all right. I trust my husband more than anything and I told him after all these years what my mother's husband did to me and is still trying to do and no it doesn't make anything better in so many ways your life will be forever ruined. And your life literally is just a constant drain on yourself because all you're doing is trying to figure out how to live day to day with no justice for what happened to you. I hope that some people find relief but I didn't
Unfortunately, a lot of people love that type of carrying on. It hurts to admit, but it wouldn't/couldn't thrive if there weren't a large audience for it. Roc was pushed off of tv for that same reason- because Charles Dutton didn't bend to the growing appetite for buffoonery.
Awww that's sad I liked Eleanor she was always humble and strong acting and I never saw this episode Roc was a good husband for being there for her at her worst moment. Sometimes you never know what trauma someone has been through, and it affects them even as adults.🥺❤🩹❤🩹❤🩹
Stop saying "I'm alright" "Everything's alright" black people!! This is not a 30 min episode subject. Eleanor needs counseling/therapy and so does the family...come on now....at least mention the importance of her talking to someone ...
Agreed, agreed, agreed! To be fair, despite the current abundance of resources and information available today, we didn't have as much-or I should say, access to as much-back then. We certainly didn't have the encouragement to see a professional therapist. Mental health wasn't as significant a concern as it is now, which is sad but true. The show simply reflected the times we were living in. If I recall correctly, the patients portrayed on therapists' couches back then were often white and dealing with existential crises. Black patients with trauma were rarely depicted, especially on primetime TV. I know that even within my own family, suggesting psychotherapy was like admitting you were broken or damaged goods. Again, sad, I know. While mental health is pretty mainstream today, it was not as prominent or positively advertised in the 90s, especially not in the Black community. This is my gripe with a certain very famous writer/producer/director/everything-else-er that I shall not name. He seems stuck in time, wrapping everything up with a neat "come to Jesus" moment without showing people getting useful professional help. He is someone who should know better. *Off my soapbox* lol
The way she went from a competent, focused, caring nurse to a confused, frightened little girl in seconds is just crushing…

He’s too underrated

This is why we need to talk about the 70`s and 60`s when most families kept deep hidden secrets like this...Most often goes for years and years.

Right. It took my oldest to become young adults to understand why
My mom was like that. She didn't want to leave alone especially at public events. I can see why and i appreciate her for this.
What I loved about this show was the fact it was real about addressed real life issues! And Eleanor always had 3 KINGS around her to protect her!
I really wish I watched this when I was younger, but they nailed how creepy and manipulative Warren was. I feel so bad for Eleanor. They handled this episode amazingly of how terrifying CSA is resurfacing in adulthood.
This scene hit 😢
Eleanor screaming that scene seemed too real
Sometimes actor portrayed on their personal life of what they being through or had experience. You do know shes a real person and not only an actor
As I’ve grown up, I’ve learn to appreciate just why my parents kept me close as a child. This broke my heart 😢
I'm so grateful mom kept me close to her. And I wasn't babysat by just anyone
Most underrated show of all time
I remember this show , it would switch back from comedy 🎭 to drama so fast
