It's very easy to comment based on a single video .... Every family has their unique dynamics .... Im glad this family tried to work it out no matter what they go through ... The grace of God and the love of God holds and binds them all .... Thank you Jesus for this wonderful family . So much to learn from each of their videos ....
Wisdom you have😊😊
So true. We can't even imagine how family dynamics can play out in a family with a member coping with bipolar moods etc. God bless them all n bring them together by His loving Grace ❤
I cannot imagine how difficult Joe's life has been. Having a bipolar mother is serious. The mood swings, instability, chemical imbalance, uncontrollable anger, aggression, etc....😢😢😢
I agree that there is no room for racism in this day and she, especially when black people are so amazing, hardworking, supportive, fun and successful, however, the older generation needs help and teaching. Many Korean women are not that affectionate anyway, even with their own children so her not really interacting with the children or even Alena didn't seem off to me. She wasn't lovey lovey with Joe either. The way she looked at and held the baby showed compassion and love for her new grandson. Each one teach one! It is sad that no other ethnic group is easily accepting of black people as black people are at accepting everyone else but, learning one another is the start to decrease racial bias and ignorance. Peace and blessings.
Truth is good things are always hated.. good governance hated, healthiest good food...no one wants to eat that until they start having health issues. Nice black ppl ...we love family and are compassionate and they hate all that .
Joseph Lee is a good man. God bless you more..
I love the way grandma holds the baby😌
So nice to see family get together like this
This is sad but glad he's still with his wife and kids and hope they will be together until the end of their time
I just realized that they are a blended family. She is a mother of 8 with 3 fathers. Time will tell
Amen
@@aaat4873 she also has a PH.d and worth about 10mil.
I know this video is from 7 years ago and I know most of these comments are from around 1 year ago, but why are y'all acting like Alena didn't blatantly greet her mother-in-law? I heard her say hello and ask how she was doing plain as day.
ACTUALLY!!!
This is so precious! Grandma loved him❤
Good bless you guys! You guys have come really far I like your new video visiting to Korea and waiting for an update 😂😂
I think it beautiful you two are together the world is meant to be with whom you love . I love the Korean culture but I like the kids to learn the African culture as well equally both sides as they are both

This was difficult to watch but I’m so glad the family and couple have and are growing strong
You looks so devise and sad ,hope to find peace as soon as possible ,make sure to take care of your mother and to visit her often wherever or whoever she is ,because you’re an exemple for your kids ,how you’re doing they will do the same to u
I totally agree with your advice. We r the example that our children will emulate for sure
This is refreshing ....
I love the relationship Joe has with the Kids
semoga bahagia selalu
Elena is better than me. I couldn't be married to someone with a racist family. Joe is strong to go against it and stick by his wife and family.
Joe is a wonderful man 👌 his an example to others we where all made by the same God.
Many inter racial marriages dont last
@@joydavid5428 да чувак. Ты прав
Wow so beautiful family you have 💖
I love you so much
She seems like she loves the baby and is happy, she is smiling.
I think Alena didn’t try to embrace her mother in law
The visit was awkward 😬🥲
For someone with mental illnesses, the children needed a nudge to embrace grandma. They wanted to but no adult encouraged.
Joe asking her thoughts about him and Alena was bang out of order. That was not the time or place. I am not surprised she left. That must have been hard for poor grandma. Mental health is real .
Well you have to understand that us asians arent really that used to being that affectionate, and the fact that the grandma deals with bipolar disorder, which can be very serious and unpredictable, then I can understand that the rest of the family was kind of unsure how to approach her, taking in consideration what she maybe or maybe not comfortable with and respecting her personal space.
Maybe because she knows she doesn’t really except her😒
Maybe because that women was displaying racist behavior 😒
The kids were excited she was there. She seemed really reserved. Which is not the most black families are.
@@boastenandbraggin3947children are naturally wonderful little ppl. See how eager they were on her arrival, waiting outside the washroom door, with exuberant anticipation 😂. Yeah, someone cud hv helped in that process, as suggested giving a nudge perhaps 😊
малыш похож на бабушку!!!! какие красивые дети!!!!!
Grandma reaction is a little cold.
Being bipolar has nothing to do with being racist sorry not sorry 😞 It is what it is 😒
Yea claiming to b sick but a racist she knows very what she's doing even not friendly with her grandkids d kids were happy to see her but I think she's not
Exactly
oh dear....judging someone who isn't okay mentally ? At least she tried.
@@olydnk5270 gonna stop you there, the original comment is separating the illness from being a bad person, you can be mentally ill and be a bad person, in the same way you can be mentally ill and be a good person, you just don't get a pass lol
She seemed very overwhelmed with the camera in her face. Not everyone wants to be on camera. I dont think he should have done that.
She Was More Welcoming To The Strange Lady Her Dad Brought She Hugged Her And Everything Did None Of That To Her Mother N Law
She wasn’t a stranger
I loved how he teached anatomy of crabs😂😂😂
😂
Taught!
11:00 - i'm with you Alena... i don't think i ever could eat any crustacean!!! Fish, plain fish and nothing else, i can try but all them crawlie crawlies... OH NO!!!
selamat malam, saya sangat menyukai semua vodeo-video nya..sehat dan sukses selalu untuk pasangan yg harmonis ini.
Joe needs to spend more time with his mom. She needs him i guess. Think she left crying...
She is offended somehow...
No! he doesn't need to be around her. She has other family that can take care of her or a home. His mother doesn't respect him, his wife, or the family. I'm not hanging around my family or in-laws if they act a certain way. Hopefully she has changed her views and got helped. If so I would visit and call from time to time that's it. That's what most families do anyway. Holiday visits, phone calls, and now social media.
@@serenity8901 he needs! Since mother is one! Wives can be several on fact. Same his kids will show him when he will be weak and old... Bumerang effect! Why people can be so selfish! He needs then to jungle between mom and wife. She is too old to change. But they young to change. The question in wish. Probably that's also question in culture. Since Korean culture require a respect for parents! That's why she didn't like this woman. Guess she knew her future disrespectful attitude...
Yes, his mom drove to meet him, that action deserved his full attention on her
Alaina did not greet her mother-in-law or show that she was welcome. Joe should not have asked his mother what she thought of him and Alaina when they were getting married. It was not needed for Joe to tell us that his mother has bipolar. That is something that is private and should not be told to everyone. It is important to always show love to our family members whether they have a mental illness or not. You only get one mother.
The last part tho... After I lost my mom, it seems like everything has fallen apart.. and I see frequently people not "valuing' their mother's presence and it hurts to some point...
@@aicramity9525 There is nothing like a mother. My mother was a big part of my life when she was alive. She was always in my corner. She would always say there is no such word as can't.
You are right but i can put myself in her feelings. She knows that they are racist like many korean family in their case. I could be like her, nothing to do more than she did. I lived in Paris and i saw many racist'homeless . Now i can see she gave more grand kids and the situation goes better now. I hope so!
Alaina was respectfully cautious because Asian culture is a very reserved culture. But I agree that some of that personal health info about Joe's mom is too personal and asking his mom (while filming her) about them getting married is very embarassing.
Well, you know how Joe is; he speaks his mind.
Joe: “Who does he look like”?
His mom: Silent
She low key wanted to say BLACK!!!!! 😑
😅😅😂😅😂😂😂
😄😄😄
Lol well his mother is Black
😂😂😂 maybe she doesn't know. Both of them?
Joe, I heard you. I understand your feelings. I am trying to forgive my mother but sad part she is not acknowledging that she has a mental problem. Mental problem is not the sign of weakness. Misunderstood. Only love and acceptance can help one to find peace with one's situation and everything. God bless you always 🙏
I don't think Joe's mum is racist... she's probably just disappointed that Joe didn't marry a korean girl..🤷♀️it's not a matter of race..just culture
Isn’t that racist tho? Lmao
@@flocaine no. There's a difference between culture and race
@@lazychip2606 I’m sure if he married a white person she wouldn’t mind though.
@@leval1000 I guess we'll never know
@@lazychip2606 watch the other vids with her
며느님~ 어머님께 차라도 대접해주시지
I think Joe didn't prepare his wife and children.... Joe mother want some space , that s so upset...
Oh she loves her Grandbabies.
Joe's mom was clearly uncomfortable with the camera in her face. He should have asked could he film her. I understand if there is animosity or tension between Alena and her mother-in-law, but Alena could have, at least, asked her how she was doing or something. Also, Joe is gonna have every sick eating those eggs and other stuff. Alena's dad popping up randomly while Joe's mother is there ... (side eye)
Why? Elena knows her mother in law is racist. Why does she have to make her comfortable and she wasn't comforting or welcoming to her marrying her son. I believe it was planned for her family to come and meet Joe's family.
*@thatdude1996* These videos are edited before they're put up for viewing.
@@boastenandbraggin3947 I don't know what Elena did or did not know; however, she still married the lady's son. It's called common courtesy.
Joe should have walked his mom back to her car to make sure she got there safely since she was parked in a parking lot
@@thatdude1996 lol ALENA greeted that woman/her MIL and asked " how you doing?! which was met with silence😑😑"
Did Joe have a hickey?🤣🤣🤣
I think so. It's odd timing to have one, right? When you know your mother is coming for a visit?
The subtitles are really screwing up your story 😮😮😮🤯🤯🤯
why not have food for her you mother ? she is alon ,you talking your waif ,you have to have time for mother ,your waif she have to Love your mother ,this your mother
Elena, you should have shown your mother in law more hospitality,despite her faults. Not for her , but for your husband. ❤😊
At the time 14:40 did someone say something about being racist??
Grandma was offended may be
I know this is old but l see that large hickey lol @ 4:18
Joe, your mom left because you embarrassed her by asking her how she felt about your marriage to Elena. That wasn’t the appropriate time for that question. I hope her next visit goes smoothly.
🥰🥰👍👍👍👍
우와아기를여섯명낳으신거예요
This Was So Weird And Uncomfortable To Watch
Because its life.... life isn't always comfortable.... I love the content. Just for the simple fact that it was real.... 😃
Yes, it was uncomfortable
What's her problem she is not being normal
I was thinking the same thing
@@AH_2014 u r from
Why did the Korean mom went out ahead?.. it's like as if she switched into another whole new mood..😶👽
In my own assessment/opinion, I think she doesn't want too many people or even "too much" noise because she's not used to it even though they've been living in the West for how many years..one should understand her part, just saying in my end..
Im a grand mother to and if this was her first time seeing her grand children she should of hug them instead she walk pass yhem like they weren't her grand children smh then when the other family showed up she look panicking that's f***** up. This ehy i rather stay in my lane✌🏾
It would be interesting to see a family discussion re: the recent trend of "black-on-Asian" crime wave.
Or black South Africans slaughtering white people. But that doesn't happen in the manipulated media!
I would love to see a family discussion on how yt people stole black ppl from Africa to work on stolen land🤷🏾♀️
the man knowingly destroyed his offspring
Hi
Cringeworthy......from what I see, your mom is trying. Maybe you all should have asked Alana's older kids to give grandma some space. Grandma came to see her grandchild not the other kids
