Facts

[@suestoons]

I also learned that I was the *best* mother before I had kids. I had all the answers, knew that I absolutely would *never* put up with _________ [fill in the blank], and had very concrete opinions on how the whole "working Mom" thing would go down. My *first* clue that I might be talking out of my ass was my mother-in-law nodding with a "wise old sage" look on her face, a slight shrug of the shoulders and "Ya. OK. That *might* work". Yes, I bred a picky eater that I catered to until she started menstruating and then ate anything in the house. Yes, I gave birth to a child with night terrors and sleep problems that lasted seven years. Finally, yes, I learned quickly that I didn't know shit and we're all just doing the best we can to get through the day. *After* I had a kid, I spent a 3-hour flight seated next to a new mom. I entertained the baby and Mom actually got an hour nap. She awoke with such a start. "It's OK, she's right here, it's all good". The look of relief and freshness on her face was ... just priceless. It's one of the nicest things I'm very proud of.

Hey Charlotte… just thought you should know. Cerebral ripped me off/scammed me for $625 in 3 weeks and wouldn’t refund until I filed a complaint with attorney general. Also the same happened to Olympic Gold Medalist Simone Byles (Sp?) Anyway, may not happen to anyone else for much longer but I’ve been your fan a very long time, and with your high level of integrity…. I needed to warn you, and others. The saddest part was that I believed I would get help, was in crisis and desperately needed help. But coped on my own anyway. Much love and mad respect!

Having a child is an excuse to buy all the toys you never had as a kid. My daughter was 6 months old on her first Christmas, I bought her a Lite Brite, an Easy Bake Oven and some Hot Wheels Cars with a race track and a loop. Best Christmas ever haha

[@mindyschocolate]

Those are AWESOME toys! Those were my favorites as a kid too.

[@chaoticneutralfae]

Not gonna lie, I think my father got just as much use out of some of the toys we had growing up than my sister and I did xD Those electric cars that were supposed to stay locked on the track yet you could sling them off if you situated the track just right was his favorite.

[@DrWho160]

The toys nowadays are super cool, I kinda want to buy my brother some dolls just so I can mess with the stuff they come with (he does indeed play with dolls although he prefers cars, he likes watching miraculous with me so that line of toys is always an option since I couldn’t grow up with the show)

[@moonbeamhamato7058]

My mom and dad’s worst fail was probably when my first word was a cuss word. It was Thanksgiving, some of our family was there, I was eating on my high chair. Suddenly my food I was eating fell off my little kiddie fork on the floor. Now keep in mind, I was a little over a year old and never said a single thing until now. According to my parents, I leaned over, looked down at my food, and said in the most clear voice, *“Ah sh*t!”* Everyone froze and my parents were mortified. I finally heard the story when I turned 18 last year and I still find it hilarious. It explains why they were so strict about me cussing growing up too (as in I was forbidden from saying “frick” “fudge” and “heck” for a while when I was 17 because “a teacher could overhear and think you said the real word”)

[@bobshipley8033]

If she's smart she won't have any children.

[@TheOfficialDirtyDan]

@@bobshipley8033 why? 🤨

[@phelllandborn6478]

As a proud haver of no kids at nearly 40, I will have to declare that parenthood is not a default future for all childless humans. Also, I've seen Charlotte mention not really wanting kids for herself, so at the end of the day, the answer is: because a grown woman made a life decision for herself and it is the social and moral responsibility of the rest of us humans, to respect it. Including if it changes in the future, and solely because she decided. That's the only 'reason why' that matters; anything else is heresay, conjecture or unwarranted opinion in either direction. That said, I think she'd make a great mother if she wanted to become one. But then again, many people say I'd make an excellent father - doesn't make me want kids, tho.

[@Aurochhunter]

Bob Shipley has a point. My sister had one child and later decided no more. Being a parent is never an easy job, but most children do actually behave most of the time and only give you occasional moments of grief; but there’s those few that seem hell bent on being as difficult as possible, my nephew is one of those children.

[@manicirishwriter]

Way back in the way back, my brother's wedding reception was a blast! I think I won the bad-mom award. The bartenders put the "nonalcoholic" punch on a table for everyone to partake. An hour or so later, two of my three children (Age 4 and age 7) are weaving and wobbly. Their speech was slurred and my youngest sat under one of the dining tables rocking back and forth. I was baffled! My oldest (age 8) complained that the sherbet punch tasted bad. My other two children happily drank all of theirs and went back for another cup. The staff put out the wrong punch bowl! My wee tots were three sheets in the wind! I wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry. Maybe both. :D Another hilarious video! Thank you!

@Brad1980 only if it's poorly produced moonshine as it can be contaminated, mainly from materials used in the construction of the still. Stills employing automotive radiators as condensers are particularly dangerous; in some cases, glycol produced from antifreeze can be a problem. Radiators used as condensers could also contain lead at the connections to the plumbing. Using these methods often resulted in blindness or lead poisoning

I’ve actually been Mason before! When I was five, my dad had moonshine in a gallon jug with fruit in it and it wasn’t labeled. I poured half a juice glass of it, took a gulp, spit the rest out, ate a grape that was in it (I think it was a grape), dumped the drink down the sink, and went on about my day. My dad realized I was extra goofy and complained I was dizzy, asked if I had anything to eat or drink. I said I had some of his fruit water, then complained it burned my tongue and throat. Dad had to call mom (he had me for the weekend), and let me tell y’all, mom was PISSED. Apparently he never labeled it because he FORGOT I COULD READ, and I was supposed to ask to get anything to drink that isn’t water.

The way Charlotte and I turned away toghter for a short second, when the mom said „moonshine“, haha, love these moment…like watching with a friend 🥰

[@lilacdoe7945]

One of my cousins taught his kid to shout "f*ck the preacher" on command. They'd be in a grocery store and he'd be like "do it, do it." and the kid would announce it to the world. Was somewhat cute and funny when he was 2, but caused a world of problems a few years later 🤣

[@rebeccasnyder-gleason5303]

Charlotte, you have a great sense of humor and a heart full of empathy- you’re going to be a great mom if you choose that path or if that path chooses you.

[@myowndrum286]

Believe me, Charlotte, when you look into your child's eyes and see the excitement they have when they know it's just 1 more sleep till Santa comes, you'll be one of the best damn liars ever to walk the roads of Canada! lol. Their innocence and pure joy and faith will win you over and melt your heart. You'll tell that fib as long as you can and wish they still believed long after they no longer do.

[@bethanyhutter5433]

I’m a mom of two toddlers. I was sick for the entire month of April and my house is still recovering from the colossal mess because I could only do the bare minimum for my girls. It’s nice to see that other moms struggle too.

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

@Bethany Hutter Oh, luv...! We ALL struggle! Pretty much daily, tbh! Go easier on yourself, and no more self-criticism! It does NOT help. Just realize if u did something wrong, and determine to do it differently next time. Apologize to the kid/kids, if necessary. 😊👍❤

I like the idea of parenting as another shot at childhood ! Honestly it feels like the most intuitive way to raise a child, plus you're having fun ...

[@Vixxie475]

I feel so much better now!!! When my daughter was 5 she got bottles of bubblegum pop and hid them in her room. They were FULL of sugar and she drank loads!!! Yep. Next day i had to call her teacher and say she was off school with a sugar hangover!!!!! She's now 23 and a teacher. So it didn't hurt her that much!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I had a similar drinking incident as the baby who got drunk & had a hangover. When I was a baby, my father had his friends over. They were sitting around talking & drinking. They weren't sitting at the table, but 8n the living room with their glasses sitting on the floor. I crawled around the room drinking from everyone's glasses and got drunk. 🥴 😂😂😂

[@rachelwilliams2896]

Being a mom is fun. One day my son dropped his snack or something and without hesitation goes “well sh*t” it took everything I had to not die laughing. He’s 5 and apparently leaned some new phrases from his uncle 😂

[@estibon3872]

hey, it's our job as the uncle to provide the profanity. grandparents spoil the kid, while aunts and uncles teach em how to misbehave! i have two nephews and three nieces and am proud of the fact that i taught each of them their first swear word! 😁

[@LazyIRanch]

Be proud that he used the term correctly! 😂 I hope she does more of these, and dad versions too. I loved the mom's reaction who gently retrieved her toddler from the mom who had picked up the wrong child. She was smiling, because she totally understood how tired moms make mistakes, especially since those kids were dressed the same! The world is a much better place when we cut each other some slack and find humor in our harmless mess-ups.

I hated lying to my kids about Santa! I had an actual Christmas Day baby, and that proved really tricky as well!

[@bonnievaughan8503]

When my children were young and in school, I baked for EVERY holiday, birthday, and occasional surprises. I was able to do that for a while for my grandchildren. Now everything HAS to be store bought. I really miss being able to do that. Not every child has some at home baking. I baked for some of the moms too, when working working took all their energy.

[@loverofmyths]

I can say with absolute certainty that, as someone who has been taking care of children for most of my life, being able to do little kids things is one of the best parts of taking care of kids. I get to use the playground equipment, I get to draw with chalk, I get to do arts and crafts, watch little kids movies that I haven't seen in years, eat dinosaur nuggets, etc. It's so much fun

[@JHyde-tv3if]

That moonshine story reminded me of my oldest brother. Apparently when he was about 3, he got into the Christmas fruitcake that my mom was soaking in brandy, and got quite drunk. She never made food with alcohol again. haha

Just patiently awaiting when Charlay becomes a mom herself (I already envy those kids) and she occasionally reacts to herself as a parent (because we all know that those wonderful times will be filmed and full of comedy and shared here on KZbin). Please do the Dad version of this react.

@@malcolmgray.5913 I agree. She’s not the mommy vlogger attention wh*** type.

[@LazyIRanch]

Charlotte is absolutely correct, being a mom does give you a second shot at enjoying childhood! I've always been a tomboy who hated dolls, but loved Hot Wheels, Tonka, and erector sets and playing in dirt. When I found out I was expecting, I really hoped I would have a boy, or a girl who wasn't into girly stuff so we could play with the same toys. I got my wish, had a son who was mad about Legos, outer space, and pirates. He turns 30 next month, and I miss buying him toys for his birthday. He's into gaming, but that's just not the same. They grow up too fast!

The things that I have said that I never imagined I would say over my parenting career, are insane. Don't kiss the rubbish bin (in an airport) is one. Why did you wipe your poop all over the carpet?? is another. But kids are also the absolute funniest people on the face of the planet.

[@alyzu4755]

I remember going to lunch with my husband and our then toddler. We were seated at a table next to a Mom's group. One of the moms was missing that week, apparently, and the rest of the group spent the entire time talking cr*p not just about her, but about her CHILD. Apparently he wasn't hitting his developmental milestones as quickly as the others and they thought it was just fine to talk smack about an 18 month-old. That's the moment I decided I'd never join one of those groups.

No Charlotte! To be a messy mommy means that you cannot instil cleanliness to your child if you are not tidy yourself. If you cannot show discipline to your kids, others will pickup where you fail. Also, thank you so very much for your sponsorship about mental problems like ADHD, bipolar disorder and such. A prominent person like you will help a lot for CEREBRAL. All in all my dear Charlotte, your mom should be proud of you and of herself for the good job well done.👏👏👏❤️
