@@MariaJoseRangelUwU well first, you dont look like a man so I don't think the dynamic I'm talking about applies to you and your mother. Second, it is clearly not the case for every parent and child relationship, mostly just the inappropriate ones. I did say "some" not all. Hope that clarifies.
Honestly I would love it. But I feel it have to be rather darker show in order to do her back story right. The way she talk about her past is rather dark. When they are just one of comments from Gloria they can be play for humour. But to actually show this stuff there no way it could be play off for humours..
Ok, so when I was 3, I took my brother's safety scissors and mangled my hair. The only thing they could do was give me a boy's haircut and move on with life. When I was about 5, I asked my brother "Who is that little boy in the picture with you?" and my 12 year old brother freaked out and said he couldn't tell me. So pestered and pestered. and he finally "gave in" and told me it was "our brother, Johnny." Johnny was 2 years older than me, but he kept leaving his wet towels on the bathroom floor and so mom got so mad and flushed him down the toilet. That night, mom yelled at me to come upstairs and as soon as I got there, she flushed the toilet. I bolted into my room and hide under my bed crying that I didn't want to be flushed like Johnny and my mom was Whut? My brother was in SO much trouble. Then when I was about 7, an older cousin had fraternal twin boys. One boy was a spitting image of my brother as a baby and the whole family gushed about it. The other twin grew up feeling left out. Then when he was 6, he came up to me and said "Jacki, who is this little boy with Bobby? He looks JUST LIKE ME!" (which was totally true). I told him, "That's actually me with a boy's haircut, kiddo." "I LOOK LIKE YOU?!?! YAAAAY!" it was sweet.
@@CaligoArye aww that was sweet 😊. I thought you were gonna tell him the same story your brother told you and scare him off. Phew 😌. Now I feel bad for thinking that way.
OMG “three times a week a picture of your face so I can look into your eyes and see if you’re lying to me” just KILLED ME, didn’t expect that turn! 😂😂😂
"do you have to be so white all the time" was actually perfect lol. A lot of cultures parent/child relationship is pretty different than what is normal in the u.s. The parent/child relationship even differs a lot in the u.s between races so even though some of this does seem weird its liekley that everyone's just having some culture shock
That's so true. I think the parent-child relationship of an average white family in the US has got to be one of the coldest I've ever seen. I'm white, too but in Germany we aren't so prude with a lot of things. We definitely have a much more open relationship with our kids than the average American family
@@Maddie1402_ I could be wrong but it starts right at childhood - with the 'ferberizing' or whatever. I don't think this practice is used outside of the US and Western Europe.
You do understand that not all white people are American, right? Me, for example. She could've asked "do you have to be so American all the time" if that's what she meant. You're racist.
@@Maddie1402_ pretty sure that out of all parent-child relationships white children are the most catered to, if you wanna see a cold distant relationship then try immigrant parents with traditional authoritarian parenting. we wouldn't dare express ourselves the way many white kids are able to bc all we'd get is a monumental whooping.
Many people say that they are weird and sometimes disturbing but that is actually how a really loving latino mother tend to behave specially if is a only child latino mothers are really expressive of their love to their children. Is true sometimes Gloria is overprotective but Manny used to be her only company and reason to keep going.
@@cxxx1257 exactly, Southeast Asia and Latin American countries got similar cultures, families in USA just think it’s normal to hate each other or never talk again when they’re 18
@@levitatingstan6526 yeah true but they made it look like we are the abnormal one, they say nasty things like Alabama and stuffs, these make me feel disgusted (my English is not so good,, i hope you understand what i am trying to say)
I get it, but I also think these cultural attitudes aren't very healthy. I come from a colombian family, and this kind of stuff can cause problems as far as family is concerned. I'm not saying two white writers were the best choices to do this, but generally, I do believe these attitudes should be criiticized or at least challenged.
Gloria was calling Claire "Diablo/Devil", because Claire pushed her to confess something out loud and that caused her problems with Manny. I'm not from the US, but, I never said Diablo in a similar context, nor I never heard anyone doing that, some could say "diablos", which is the equivalent of "damn it" or alternatively "demonios" (literally means "demons", influences of the Christianity/Catholicism). I think you're referring to that, but, that's not the same Gloria did. She wasn't cursing her luck at that moment, like when someone says "diablos". Don't know exactly how things were before, but, if anyone would call devil to someone else, it'd usually be old ladies, that followed the Catholicism or they were raised in a house or society like that (well, usually most of Latin America), they would say that. Take into account, Sofia Vergara does things like that for the comedy, as well. If it's not a confusion from you part, I guess it's something people does in the US, that'd be a result of the cross of languages and people that used old fashioned expressions or slang that were taken as casual and common Spanish in the US.
No, she definitely doesn't. She knows how unhealthy her relationship is with Manny and regrets him not having a bit of an "edge" to him, so she's making an effort to change that for Joe. Plus, I believe having Jay in the picture from the beginning of Joe's life changes things quite a bit because for several years of Manny's life, he was all she had until she met Jay.
Latin moms get really attached to their male sons lol, its just like that here, my mom is just like this with my brother (well not exactly, the show is obviously exaggerated) but they are happy like this, so whatever, its better having a good relationship with your parents than hating them.
.. to their "male sons"? 😅 Anyway, I see your point! Having a close and honest relationship with your mother (and father) is so important for your inner compass and your maturity ... You know, as long as it's not an unhealthy relationship leading to psychosexual issues that'll interfere with every future relationship.
@@MariaHermora Honestly, just watch as much TV and read as many stuff as you can. When it's some type of media that you are actually interested about, in an effort to understand it, your brain will make more of an effort to remember definitions and pronunciations. Also try to say the dialogue out loud, make a game out of seeing how much you can sound like the characters.

Seeing Gloria being a struggling, but still badass single parent immigrant with a precocious litte Manny would be a great. It could really talk about some great subjects while still being hilarious at times.
