    Thanks for your support as always! As I said on Instagram, I'm mad at Sutan from 1:40 to 3:55, so skip it if you don't want to see it. For me, it's a learning experience as a parent to keep filming our everyday life. She didn't drop the rice on purpose. And I didn't have to look so scary, she could have understood if I talked to her normally. I really feel everyday that Raising children makes us grow up!

      You realizing that is enough... there are so many parents out there that for some reason, they don't feel guilt when they shame their children or shout at them, or even hit them just because of whatever mistake they did. Sutan is lucky to have you as a mother.

    The biggest thing I appreciate is how Moe was able to move on from the rice incident and talk to Sutan normally within minutes. A lot of parents discipline their child for much longer than necessary or healthy. Having your Mom be mad at you for hours or the entire day because of one mistake is a horrible experience for a child and can create tons of emotional regulation issues down the road if it’s done consistently.

    I like that Moe shows herself disciplining Sutan. It's real. All parents go through it and you can't avoid it. Moe's struggles and frustrations validate other mothers and parents that are raising toddlers. Parenting isn't always laughter, giggles, and having fun and looking perfect on CZcams. Parents have a tough job of instilling responsibility, discipline, and meaning in their children. Moe was very calm and explained things very well to Sutan. Great job Moe.

    What Moe did was very important but most importantly very well done. She didn't yell, she didn't make loud noise but she showed that she was very serious. Sutan knows that when she smiles, Moe also smiles after her, she saw that her mom was angry and understood that there are consequences to her actions (in this case, Moe scolding her) Food is a privilege, something that many people can't afford, it's very important that Sutan understands from young age this concept and Moe did it very well teaching her that

It's important for parents to teach or discipline their child. Whether it's through an explanation of showing it through actions. Sure, kids don't fully understand, but any form of discipline would be better for parents to include an explanation. Even in the simplest of words. It's a way of teaching children what's wrong and right.

  • @cristinasmith4684
    @cristinasmith4684 Před 2 lety +1770

    I actually don't think Moe did anything wrong with her discipline when Sutan dropped the rice. You can immediately see just how angry and frustrated she got, but she still took several seconds to breathe and compose herself before addressing it. Then, she explained to Sutan very calmly and firmly why it is so important not to drop the food and the value of the food. I totally understand the feeling of guilt that Moe feels because now she knows it was an accident and not intentional. It's important to remember that, as humans, we can't always immediately brush off something that upsets us. Moe was upset for a few minutes and then makes a visible effort to move on. And that is such a great way to go about this whole thing. Idk, that's just me, i actually think she executed the discipline perfectly. She reigned in her emotions, explained the reason she was upset, and did her best to move on. I personally probably would not have so much self-control in a similar situation

    • @MezzoItaliana
      @MezzoItaliana Před 2 lety +88

      Absolutely, I completely agree with all that. Even if it was an accident, Sutan was, in fact, careless and, as a growing toddler, needs to learn to control her actions and that actions have consequences. Moe did that but also made sure Sutan knew that she still loved her.

    • @Iflie
      @Iflie Před 2 lety +49

      Yes, this will be something Sutan remembers, she had an accident but it's very important that she thinks and is careful in the kitchen because she could get hurt. Impulses are normal for little kids but so is learning to control them. She knows and this helps her brain remember.

      I'm glad she kept this moment in the edidting and let us see it. I am amazed about how Moe responded to this, with no yelling even if she look very upset. It must have been hard for her to keep her anger in, she did so well! It looks like Sutan understood how serious the matter was, she was focus to what her mama says, did not cries or have a tantrum. I will keep that scene in mind, if one day I have children Moe will be one of my parenting models, for sure.

The fact that a kid does a better job again shows the tremendous effort her parents put in raising her.

    I really appreciate that you included the part about teaching Sutan about the rice. I'm from the Philippines and my father came from a family of farmers. I remember that when I was a kid, I was having a bit of a tantrum and I refused to finish my rice. My parents got angry, understandably. My Dad then told me the story of how he had a rough childhood helping out at his parents' farm and how he planted rice himself from an early age. Of course, it was hard work because he had to study and farm at the same time. From then on, I tried to only take food that I could finish and not waste rice. This is a really valuable lesson that Sutan will take until adulthood. Thank you very much. I feel the respect you have for people, especially farmers, who strive to put food on everyone's tables.

I had to kneel down for 2 hours facing my ancestral tablet to contemplate on my actions, when I was young if I wasted or played with my food. It seemed very harsh and unreasonable to me at that time.

    For me, the most interesting thing about watching Moe scold Sutan was how calmly she did it, and it still didn't affect how serious she was. It was eye-opening and honestly quite refreshing. Do u know how many of us would've been hit or screamed at if we as children did the same thing Sutan did, even if it was an accident?
    I understand that parenting isn't easy, but this just shows that u don't have to beat ur children to discipline them (and u would be surprised by the amount of people who would find that strange).
    Thank u for showing that Moe, and please don't feel bad about it!

    In no particular order, the first words that come to mind when I see or think of KIMONO are: culture, tradition, elegance, grace, calmness. You are the living embodiment of the Kimono just as your moniker says. I cannot think of being able to handle the “rice accident” any better than how you handled it on the fly. You turned a very stressful situation into a learning experience for Sutan. She will appreciate this as she grows older and eventually becomes a mother. You are a role model to parenting for us as well whether it be cooking Japanese dishes or these learning moments. Thank you for being real and truly sharing without much editing your life. One last thing, social media always has jealous people and those “haters” that will give thumbs down on anything they don’t agree with-please don’t let that bother you. You will never be able to please everyone, but remember they are a very, very small minority. I can see that Tama and the entire Hanamachi is so very proud of you. いつもおおきにMoe-san. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙇🏻Aloha from Hawaii 🌺🌈🌸

    People say that you can't be a parent and a friend to your child. I don't believe that but I do think being a parent comes first. That means both teaching and disciplining them. The goal is always to be helpful and not hurtful. To guide while not trying to guilt them. Not an easy thing to do because regret and disappointment comes within the territory of joy and love. The hope is always that the good memories outweigh the bad but as we know in life, bad memories are often the ones that stick out in our minds the most. What I know is this, Moe is an excellent mom and her love for Sutan shows through in every video. Keep up the good work Kimono Mom. 👍👍👍

Not only did you do a wonderful job of correcting and being stern while not reacting in yelling or anger, but we got to watch you go through your own decision making on how to handle the situation. I have jumped straight to reaction too many times in the past, and my reaction has hurt (not physical, but emotionally) my child far too many times. I’m learning how to teach without reacting. Watching you in real time struggling with this moment, then knowing you chose to show this makes me see you as even more authentic and genuine. I appreciate your integrity.

    One of my absolute favorite videos so far. It’s very important for us to see that rearing children is not always sunshine and rainbows; discipling your child is just as important as showing them affection. Moe-sensei handled this excellently and was able to teach Sutan a good lesson while maintaining her calm despite being very upset. No yelling, no hitting, just a firm reminder that while dealing with certain tasks, we have to use a certain level of respect. I love Kimono-mom even more for this. ❤️

    I think this might be my first comment on this channel. I was impressed by your lesson for Sutan. It was gentle but firm, this is important for kids. As a korean, I grew up and raised by my korean mum, she wasn't always calm and gentle but she taught me a lot of things that now I really appreciate it. She was always firm but thoughtful. My mum still says she is sorry that she was so scary to me and she didn't pamper me when I was little but I'm so grateful that she didn't pamper me and I grew up well! I am not that calm and gentle like you but I hope I can be a mum who can teach my children about importance of things gently and firmly in the future.

    Scolding is part of raising a child, otherwise it wont apreciate things in life. Sometimes you need to be harsh,so the children learn whats good and what is not. My father told me as a boy that i should stay away from the stove because its hot and I could burn, all the time, but at one point he just let me touch it, because i didnt listen to him, he was ready to react in fast wi cold water and a salve, so I learned the hard way and he just calmly said "see? i told you its hot, just listen to me when i say something" and I did, never ever toched the stove as a child. And important also is, dont hold a grudge against your child, scold and after that go on nomral, as long as they are so young,they wouldnt understand a long grudge anyways. Sutan shows ,that she can remember really well whats enjoyable and what not (pouring salt for example) so she will not let rice fall down on purpose in the near future ;)
    So Moe, dont worry too much, you dont use violence against your child ,just some strict words and after that you are good again, so Sutan now knows to not do stupid stuff or mommy gets angry, and a child dont want angry parents, fun is so much better,and she has a lot of fun, so ;) a good ending

    To the Japanese rice is life. When my grandmother was alive she taught me to be careful when washing the rice (yes we always wash it to remove excess starch) because “if you waste one grain of rice, someday you’ll cry for that piece”. I’ve always always been careful and even now at 52 I still remember those words when I’m at the sink and feel bad if I drop any… it’s really hard because with the short grain rice that is used, they’re just like little pearls of tapioca and they wanna escape! 😅 Sutanchan will never forget her lesson from Mo, and someday she’ll teach her child 😊❤
