I don’t think she taught her how to hoe. What she was trying to teach her was not to sell herself short and to date men who couldn’t be providers. Possibly so she didn’t turn out like her mother - 18 kids living in the projects.

I think sometimes those who cause most of the dysfunction in groups are perfect in their own eyes. It’s almost good that those who feel perfect expect others to be perfect. I believe Thats why they call the show. They do not think they are responsible for the dysfunction. The human brain is easily conditioned by outside voices, and mostly our own voices, telling us we are perfect. Once all cards are on the table, when everyone has the same experience with “perfect” you, is when the “pattern” can be interrupted. Watching Iyanla & hearing these stories has changed me forever!

Iyanla only offers healing to those that want it. A woman who can’t read or write and had 18 children whether she could care for them or not has problems too big for Iyanla to solve anyway.

@@Dontarguewithme.I don’t think this session was about placing blame on the sister but them making her realize just as proudly as you are to have saved your younger sister, you also subjected her to repeated violations at the hands of your boyfriend in an environment you created and controlled. That unfortunately has nothing to do with their mother but the sister’s own selfish actions. Although I agree with you she still isn’t solely the blame.

@Dontarguewithme. 8 ай бұрын

@@msawmusic I understand what your saying, but I think they both are products of being raised in a very dysfunctional environment. What kind of mother would allow her 17-year-old to raise her 14-year-old? The mother is solely to blame for this one. It's easy to look at them at their big ages now and say the older sister is to blame but we got to remember the older sister was only 17 at the time. I expect a 17-year-old to make bad decisions regarding the safety of a 14-year-old. I'm more concerned of how a mother could think a child that was 3 years older than her 14-year-old could raise her😳

@msawmusic 8 ай бұрын

@@msawmusic if most of the tension between them occurred when they were both under 18 it has everything to do with their parents. I think that's the reason why nothing really got resolved.

This is not true. The younger sister was violated and became pregnant when she lived with their bio mother. AND the younger sister wanted a baby daddy/man for herself and seduced Barbara's boyfriend because he took good care of her. AND don't forget Barbara is only eight years older so she was just as clueless about being a decent role model as their bio mother. You people and Iyanla have no business blaming Barbara for her damaged sister's behavior.
