ASKING MY GHANAIAN MUM HARD QUESTIONS WHILE SHE COOKS KANGAROO MEAT | LIVING IN GHANA
My mum was born and raised in Ghana. She moved to Australia from Ghana, over 30years ago. We basically had to start a relationship when I was 17 because I had been away from her since I was 5years old.
Here is a conversation with her. Get to know us.

My name is Jasmine and I have relocated from Sydney Australia to Ghana in west Africa as of the year 2020.
My parents are of Ghanaian descent and so am I although I was born in Australia. Here on my channel, my goal is to give you a real glimpse into what it’s like to live in Ghana, from the Ghanaian food, to the Ghanaian culture, to the Ghanaian lifestyle and everything in between. My goal is to satisfy your curiosity about Ghana and help inspire to explore Ghana.
My prayer is that these videos do just that for several African’s in the diaspora.
Follow your bliss because life is short, follow your bliss because human life has no intrinsic value, follow your bliss because everything happens for the greater good and follow your bliss because it has all happened before.

A huge round of applause 👏 🙌 👌 To your mother and all mothers who are returning back to school for a better life for your family and yourselves

[@divaprettyakakapequeen9438]

Wow! You did a great job convincing your mom to be on camera. I remember she didn’t want anything to do with it when you first arrived in Australia. I enjoyed the interview and salivated for the kangaroo sandwich. Your relationship with your mom is very much respectful and lovely. I admire her eloquence and soft voice.

[@JasmineAmaa]

❤️❤️

[@fredborteykyeremeh2353]

This is priceless conversation. You have a great mum who took the best decision in the interest of you and your brother. Her responses were very spot on and honest. You never get things wrong listening to her successes, failures, challenges and experiences. You are blessed with such a mum. I feel so happy seeing you both together sharing these experiences. I can't stop watching this video. Great work done. Keep it up

[@SweetAdjeley]

I really Enjoyed watching you interact with your mom, all I saw was soooooo much love, she’s such a beautiful woman soft spoken just like you and I can tell she is soo proud of you as I am, I loved it when she was signing off with you, I’m in love with your braids and enjoying this trip with you so keep them coming, it’s funny how I feel you are home and closer to me while in Australia 🤣🙈😂 reminds me of when you first left, meanwhile we are thousands of miles apart, The Love Is Soo Deep.😘✌🏽❤️❤️❤️

[@JasmineAmaa]

Too deep Sweet. Come to Ghana soon na i miss u. ❤️❤️❤️

[@bushgoddard]

A great example of a woman making a very hard choice of putting herself first, getting an education. In the end, her family greatly benefitting from her wisdom and the choices she made.

[@highlyfavoured5121]

Ok…I’m cutting onions now too😢! This was so beautiful! What a candid conversation to have with your mother. I wish all Ghanaian mothers would initiate such conversations with their children. I definitely grabbed a few nuggets of wisdoms from Mummy. I’d love to see Mummy on your channel again. And her accent is super lovely! 💜💜

[@JasmineAmaa]

❤️❤️

[@JudithSerwaa19]

I now understand why you’re an amazing person. Your mom is absolutely sweet 😍

[@edmcgeman5084]

Learned 2 things: On the lite side, never knew kangaroo meat is eaten. And the awesomeness of your mother. She is the quintessential embodiment of all the universal qualities characteristic of a woman and a mother. Much love for and very proud of her . As much as possible, get her back to share life experiences and on any subject she wants to talk about.

[@lmroselle]

She has been so camera shy since you arrived. I am happy that you gotten her to open up, she is delightful.

[@JasmineAmaa]

🤣🤣❤️❤️

[@larrysq8937]

Your mum is a strong and good woman. Some mothers would have influenced their kids not to like their father after separation. May Allah bless her with good health and happiness!!

[@JasmineAmaa]

Amen 🙏🏾❤️

[@valerielarsen2740]

Lots of respect to your Mum, because she did what most African mothers would not do by pouring her heart out to you on camera. I can relate so much to her situation as a Mother to 3 beautiful girls who lost their Dad at a very young age and I had to relocate with them to Denmark. Such conversations are very necessary between Mothers and their daugthers especially, so as to prepare them for the life ahead of them.

[@not-even-german4892]

Such a lovely and respectful daughter you are💖

[@JasmineAmaa]

❤️❤️

[@aliceghans5659]

Your mom is such an arabaa..such an eloquent speaker. She really has such a gentle clam aura about her...she seems like a lovely woman...as you do too 🤍

[@efiaesoteric3566]

Thanks so much to you both for sharing of yourselves. I'm so pleased to hear that being sent to Ghana worked out well for you and your brother. It seems the move was managed well. I tried to stay silent but for the sake of others, I need to show the other perspective. I believe the African and African-Caribbean practice of sending or leaving one's children in/to the home country to live with extended family or sometimes friends; can and often does long term emotional harm to the child. The impact of which can last into adulthood. This is part of my story, having experienced such a separation aged 10-15. When I was sent from the UK to Jamaica to live with extended family members. The repurcussions were enormous, my family did not handle things well and I experienced 5yrs of neglect and abuse whilst in Jamaica. I am now 57, it took decades to heal the wounds caused to me. In my work as a psychotherapist, I have come across numerous others struggling to live with the wounds which are rooted in similar separations. I judge no-one as I write here. But to any parent reading this, who is considering sending or leaving their child. I say, unless your child will come to harm from remaining with you. I suggest that under your love and care, is the best place for them. By keeping them by your side, you could well be saving them from a lifetime of heartache. Dr Elaine Arnold founded the Separation and Reunion Forum (UK) to look into this very issue. Once again I thank you Jasmine, for a thoughtful and thought provoking video. All my best, E

[@JasmineAmaa]

Definitely had some cons. Also depends on who had to care for u when u returned home as well. Thanks for sharing your story too ❤️🤗

[@giftyakowuah2628]

You have a point but for most Ghanaians, grandmas raise kids so long as they are alive whether you are in the country or not. I am an awesome mother but my mum and mother in law compliment my parenting duties. They are the over all Mamas.If you have a good mama, why not

[@desiresoul5359]

Your mum speaks eloquently and soothing. Really enjoyed this conversation ! thanks 😊

[@ernestadotey7157]

Jaz. I see you are wincing. The onions were killing u. LOL. Food is going to be good. Mom is very reserved but I think she will be decisive, principled and resolute.

[@JasmineAmaa]

Those onions killed me.. she is exactly that ❤️❤️

[@tayoanchor]

The hardest decisions are sometimes the best ones as your mum rightly stated. What she gave you is both/and, and not either/or, this has given you the confidence to be the Jasmine we all see and appreciate now👏🏾

[@addosolar537]

God bless mom for sending them to Ghana. It was obviously the right move.

[@yaamo]

Who's cutting the damn onions in my apartment? I'm going to need a part 2 of another interview with mom. She's so intellectual and wise. I love her warm and loving energy. Not only is she beautiful but has a beautiful aura. I wish her many blessings in life 🙌🏿 ❤️⚘️

[@wendyreal247]

Try cutting onions near the sink with the water running (a heavy trickle); the onion juice is attracted to water, and that's why your eyes water, the water from the tap will be more the water in your eyes--works like a charm. It's good that as an adult you are able to talk with your mum about the decisions she made and the relationship between your parents and allow her to clarify for you. Too many adult kids of divorce keep their focus on the negative aspects that may exist although they may know that hard decisions had to be made cognitively, the inner child gets grieved and may react negatively to those choices, and that can lead to a breakdown in their relationship with their parents

[@toakonouzoko9449]

Even affect their own children in the long run if they're not fully healed

[@wendyreal247]

@@toakonouzoko9449 Absolutely right. I am a child of divorce, and I had to always be deliberate in handling matters that concerned my son and his dad because I didn't want to perpetuate any circles, so I had to be extra careful. I feel that I've been successful in that regard, by looking at every situation and trying my hardest to bring about a positive outcome; but being honest, I still question the level of success

[@fromthethrone]

Your mum is such a wise, warm, courageuoes, hardworking, intligent woman with a high level of knowledge, experiences and dignity, such a woman is hard to find not just in Ghana or Australia but all around the world. And you are just like her, very inteligent joung woman. Just go ahead as like you are, and I wish you both all the best, to you and your family, I pray for you may all your dreams come true.

I was close to my mother and wish I could go shopping with her, have coffee together, listen to her advice. She has been gone since 1995, I am a older woman now and so glad a had a great mother, enjoy yours. One day all you will have are the memories and pictures. Hope you will encourage her be on camera more. Out of all the young content creators on You Tube you are the best and a natural. Love the segments when you show case every day hard working Ghanaians and help them monetarily. The others just preen, show off their outfits, wealthy people. Your content is more varied. This is coming from an African- American woman in her early seventies who hopefully, God willing will visit Ghana for the first time in Dec. It has been on my bucket list and looking forward to it!

Jasmine, good job 👍🏾. This was a very interesting vlog. It exposes the roots of your character, personality and drive. Being strong and unselfish, I believe both of your parents did what they thought was best for their children, willing to sacrifice to allow you to have better life with greater opportunities. I applaud 👏🏾 their efforts to provide you with opportunities that allow you to “follow your bliss.” This is what is missing in today’s society, parents that sacrifice so that their offspring have deeper roots to build on.
