Nobody likes to feel stupid or feel like they are being talked down on even if they are completely in the wrong. What your brother did was align himself with how y'alls mom was feeling so she did not feel pressured or bullied. So when she was able to be receptive to what he had to say she was able to think logically on the subject.

Im with Daniel 👌🏽I think that encouraging someone to realise their own faults is a good way to go especially if that persons already upset and isn't in the mind state to hear anyone else's opinion. When you are upset sometimes you can be defensive so when someone yells at you or comes at you more aggressively it makes you wanna be even more defensive instead of calmly coming towards a resolution.

Even if mama mai and Jeannie clash so much (they’re pretty much the same personality, of course they would fight lol) mama mai definitely feels proud of her. For sure. And she loves her deeply.

So I think we have to go about a different way on communicating our point because for them being "too direct" is disrespectful, even if you have no intention to disrespect them.

That sounds rrally toxic. I hate that.

I love how Jeannie is holding a picture of herself after her brother tells how she used to hold pictures of herself when taking pictures 😂😂😂😂

[@TheaSWoods]

Jeannie, as a daughter who also tends to butt heads with her mother, I can see where Daniel is coming from and why his approach works more. On The Real, you seem to approach others in a similar manner that Daniel does (presenting your opinions in a manner that allows others to come to their own realizations themselves) while with your mom, you perhaps don’t give her the same grace. I’m guilty of this too.😩 If you’ve read Dale Carnegie’s “How To Win Friends & Influence People” he encourages us to use Daniel’s approach. If we all sought to understand where someone else is coming from FIRST, before seeking to be understood - AND we approach people based on THEIR love language, then you’ll get a better result. It’s easier for someone to change when you lead them to come to the revelation themselves, versus telling them or commanding them to see things your way. You win more bees with honey Jeannie.🤗 You can’t change your Mom, and your brother understands this. You both love your mom and want the same end result. Just treat Mama Mai like you would treat someone else’s mom, and approach her in HER love languages (showing concern first, talking about shopping, etc.) and maybe you’ll get a better result. It’s both what you say AND how you say it.😊 That’s not manipulation, it’s WISDOM. (Now let me save this message and apply it for myself with my own Momma!😂 )

Jeannie your brother was 9 when you would sneak out. It's interesting that your family could sit down and talk about anything. Glad your family just see you as Jeannie, and a celebraty.

For the people who think is sad to have a favorite It’s normal lol at the end of the day we are all people. The love is all the same but personality wise some people just click better than others. I’m sure she’ll still defend them both when needed.

Thats mother's and daughter's. The older they get the table turns and we take care of them. We can see their strength and weaknesses and it's protective. It's much love and respect. I'm her age and my mother always says....she's the mom now! A joke but sort of true.😛
