I would downright disown my mom if she dated one of my ex’s...let alone an EX-HUSBAND?! That’s wrong on every level known to man.
I wouldn't. Id rather try to get her some help. Wouldn't really be around her much though. Never disown family. Blood is always thicker then water
You would do that based on how it makes you feel. But not based on Knowledge.
@@kj7792 help? Why? The only reason why it would hurt a relationship is due to negetive emotions the ex wife would have. Emotions. I agree that marriage is good if you wanna get married due to the marriage being good enough to go get it done. But other opinions from 3rd parties based on what they want for their own lives is none of my business when it comes to who I marry. My life. My marriage. Jealousy from a 3rd party is an emotional 3rd party. Not a me or the man choice.
Exactly! Who does that??
@@kj7792 The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb...
The phrase has been bastardized to make people obligated to deal with family members no matter what
"we are very affectionate... we hold hands sometimes... we hug sometimes" yeah sounds like he really loves u sis 💀💀
OMG 😅😆🏆🙏🙏👑👏👏👏👌💐
I'd be fascinated to hear her definition of kinky
@@seratonin7004 probably playing footsies
Exactly my thoughts..... you hug sometimes? Bet he's using her for something - money?
😂😂
He’s definitely using her for something other than a love interest. He’s trying to hurt that family
exactly
110%
Yep pathetic
The first thing I thought of what a way to get at the ex wife. Real slap in the face. My ex mother in law bless her soul was and awesome lady but not in a million years would I consider this it’s like dating your own mum 😱🤮🤮🤮
@Destinee Herrera totally inappropriate.... isn't it?!
A mother is supposed to love her child more than anyone else. Something is wrong with this mother
Agreed
She is a selfish person. She is only thinking about her own selfish need instead of the pain she is causing her daughter!
Yes I think you're right about that
You’d be surprised at how many mothers choose their boyfriend/spouse over their own children and grandchildren
@@lanas1149 yes, it surprises me every time
“I can explain myself.” No, no, you really can’t. You are supposed to want more for your children than you had.
@@suavismilsten1873 You're just insane, GTFOH
@@suavismilsten1873 You're a disgrace!
@@kanyebreast6072 YOU- think that personally attacking a complete strangers person is seemly. You think that calling names on the internet because they do not have the same opinion as you is okay to do. No offense but that is really weird, and disgraceful.
@@lawtraf8008 YOU- think that your opinion is the king of every king so much that you think its okay to define a complete strangers charactor and command where they can and cannot comment. Over your opinion. No offense- but that action is kind of weird and unintelligent.
She can explain herself but she still sounds crazy
“I’m an adult... it’s a free country “ what a weak counter argument. How can you not respect basic boundaries?!?
Apparently she thinks that being adult she can do anything she wants even engage in immoral behavior
Shows how immature she is everyone knows even as an adult there’s still such thing as boundaries
Her belief
"It's a free country" is something kids say in playground arguments. It's laughable hearing it from an adult.
emmmmm? i choose my baby... ALWAYS and forever
I love hearing that. Makes me happy
ALWAYS
Bless you beautiful soul. People like you make up for the mums that chose their boyfriends over us 🙏🌹
Same here and my little one will still be my baby even when she's 50 years old.
I’m 18 years old, just finished my 1st year in college for my Bachelor’s and currently 8 1/2 months pregnant with my first child. My baby will FOREVER come first. I can’t seem to understand why these parents make excuses, and throw away their relationships with their babies?
Being in an abusive relationship doesn't give the green light to step on other people let alone your own child.
It most definitely does not justify getting with your daughters ex-husband
“We hold hands sometimes”
sounds like a real relationship (for preschoolers)
Right? 🤣🤣
Facts and she feel it’s cool with her age and status as a mother
even preschoolers hold hands more then that lol
Lol right)
What an awful mother.
I wanna see what she does when he DumPs her and her daughter kicks her out of her life bcuz if my mom did this I would. My mom would never do something like this.
“I was verbally abused in my last relationship so…..” Glad that’s over but what does that have to do with her dating her DAUGHTER’s EX-HUSBAND?! She’s ridiculous.
Ah, allow me to translate: "I was verbally abuse in my last relationship, and I'm not in this one, therefore this is a good situation. Also, feel bad for me and stop criticizing my choices."
For saying I was verbally abuse most of my exes were abusive physically mentally and verbally so just one verbal abusive relationship is not an excuse I mean it’s not good I know that but try having five of them like that or more..
She's just guilt-tripping them all - ''Fell bad for me and stop judging me, shut up''
Yeah. Call me crazy, but I'd imagine there's someone who is nice and was never married to her daughter.
You clearly DON’T understand boundaries. “This is a free country” 😂
The USA for you
You clearly dont understand boundaries
Mom you can only date who I say. Ex husband, not current one- you can only date who my emotions will allow. My emotions rule not only my perception and opinion on this matter but if they dont rule who you chose to be with in your personal life then you are a bad person mother. Batk bark bark bark
@@suavismilsten1873 Bruhhhhhhhhh exactly I feel the same way aye these people single 😭😭😭 it hurt 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️ even God says put your husband first !!!
@@marryjane1684 Putting your husband above your children's needs and emotional trauma, in my opinion, makes you a poor mother. Bible might say God wants your man to come above all else, but you don't have many modern Christians following that; if your children are hungry, you feed them before yourself and husband. If your children are hurting, you tend to them first. Men shouldn't be selfish like the Bible describes, in my opinion. Not when there are babies.
@@suavismilsten1873 Dude, would you like it if your mom went and dated any ex if yours? Especially an abusive one?
Y'all can act high and mighty and say you wouldn't be upset, but most people would be.
I made a bad decision by staying in an abusive relationship and now I'm going to make up for it by making an even bigger bad decision. 🤔
What could go wrong? 🤷🏼♀️😂
for her granddaughters that relationship may look disgusting
Throw the mom away, throw the boyfriend away and you have a great young woman with potential to do amazing things with her life without that toxicity
He is using her for money.
EXACTLY and she’s not seeing that
And probably to make his ex upset
Yes, and also to stick it to the daughter! You are so right!
Does she have money?
Karma at its finest.
The mother is so desperate to recapture her youth. Being with her daughter's ex-husband is a sad attempt to be young and desirable again. She wasted her youth in poor decisions and, even as an old woman, she's not any smarter. Disgusting woman.
What poor decisions?
@@nickyricardo7034 The fact that she ended up, at obviously what seems to be a young age, with an abusive man that made her pretty much a slave so that she wasn't able to experience what normal wives/mothers experience and now she's trying to get that back
You used the word “again”.....strange haha
Nothing is more sad and pathetic then a mother that is jealous of their own daughters youth or beauty. So cringe when moms try to live vicariously through their daughters. Hooking up with ur daughters ex is lowest of the low.
Bruh ur making me cringe even more, it's like the Mother Gothel or something 😆
'I can explain myself'. No, you cannot explain away getting romantically involved with your child's ex.
They are off limits.
Even if you have had a rough life.
my baby is always coming first. When you pick someone who has hurt your CHILD you must have something wrong with you. You never choose a guy/girl/person over your child.
THIS 💯💯💯💯
People WAY too often say, "I was in an abusive relationship" ... and then use that as an excuse for their behavior. I just KNEW she was going to say it ... and SHE DID!
It’s because trauma usually the symptom of horrific decisions 🤦🏼♂️. But yes, I strongly agree that people use that way too often as an excuse for their behavior.
She chose a man over her daughter and granddaughter for a man she's not even sleeping with?!? Do whuuuuut? I feel better about MY family now.
I am so grateful knowing in my soul my mother would Never do that to me.
What does her past abusive relationship have to do with the fact that she’s still trash for being with her daughters ex???
Lol... girl please.
Like dr Phil said... there’s so many men on this earth.... 🤷🏽♀️
100 percent agree being an abusive relationship does not justify immoral behavior shows how immature she is
Any man could’ve walked in and ate her cake ! Lol
I simply can’t comprehend this situation. I think I’d be in therapy for the rest of my life.
Same
I love this show.... it's the only show that makes my family look less dysfunctional
😂
Lol)
WHAT KIND OF MOTHER DOES THAT
So mum would rather destroy relationships with her daughter/s and being with one of her ex’s 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
WTF?????? Shes totally deluded!!! How can anyone do this to their own daughter???
Every mother should see their son-in-laws as their own child.
This is betrayal on so many levels!
I actually agree that you cannot control who you love....but this woman is gross in general and saying she'd choose him over her child. Also not sexually intimate shows he is most likely using her.. probably a sugar momma.
Yeah, it seems the ex son in law is repulsed by her and doesn't want to be intimate with her. I don't blame him though.
Sugar mama? More like diabetes mama 🤣
@@doeeyes2 🤣🤣🤣
@@doeeyes2 😂😭
I mean you can't help who you love but he clearly doesn't love her... And she's a moron for thinking that he does and that any of this is not just him trying to get back at her daughter for whatever went wrong in their marriage. And to get some of Mama's money while he's at it. And you might have feelings for somebody who is a significant other of someone you're close to but you never ever ever act on those feelings especially when it's your daughter's EX-husband.
Seems like they turned on the comments on every video👀
And I'm glad for that because it's the most interesting part of every video.
"I understand boundaries." You clearly dO nOT 😭
That guy is after her inheritance how much ever it may be
Just because you were in a bad marriage before doesn't make it okay to date your daughters ex husband!! Excuses!
I can’t imagine being affectionate with my partner and then being affectionate with THEIR PARENT. No thanks.
why would you ever choose a random person over your own child
How could you date your ex-son-in-law? This woman has a screw loose to do this to her child.
My mother actually did this to me - she chose my ex-husband, who was abusive to me, as her new love interest (while my stepfather is still alive, but disabled and bed-ridden). And she seemed to enjoy giving me cruel treatment with him - i.e., when he (my ex) called me a stupid b**ch, she went and rubbed his back and spoke to him in a soothing voice, as if I was the villain. She was threatening to kick me out of the house (that was purchased with my stepfather's money btw) in the middle of the night, in the middle of the winter, because I was "causing a fight and expressing hate" (i.e., standing up and defending myself against my ex-husband's verbal and emotional abuse). One night, last year in late winter/early spring, when there was still frost outside, I spent a portion of the night in our local (unattended) train station, which had a heated external waiting area shelter (you could turn on the electric heat by pressing a button), thanks to his and her abuse and a scene they caused (he likes to stir up conflict, he is very good at doing it and playing the role of the victim).
I’m really sorry to hear your story and hope you’ve found a way out! Stay strong, you deserve so much better ♥️
@@Schokilooover Thank you so much, I appreciate your kind words. Yes, I did - I got out by finding a place to live far away from my mother (and ex-husband), and close to a good friend of mine, who supported me and helped me. He feels almost like family to me now. I hope that anyone and everyone who finds themselves in circumstances as bad as mine were will be able to find a way to get out and make their lives better.
Thanks again 🏵️
@@kamka8149 your mom and ex husband sound like Narcissists. Glad you are doing better
Geesh, that is this worst thing I've ever heard. I wish you the best and karma on your "mother" and ex.
@@kamka8149 I’m so glad to hear that, thanks for replying and I wish you all the best for your future ♥️
I feel for the daughter that must feel like such a betrayal. Girl get some therapy and so some self care and move on because you are beautiful and you deserve so much more.
Why. Would. A. Mother. Date. Her. Daughter. Ex. Husband. Very. Wrong.
This is just gross man
Totally!

Why do you think your religion has to be applied to everything? Can you imagine if you had a serious problem and somebody suggested a passage of Coran to you to solve your problem?
This is like an episode of Maury! 😂😂

Ewwwwww!!!!!
I was gonna say that old lady is his sugar momma, but on second thought she is more of a glucose guardian. 🤣😂
Oooh
Omg 😂😂😂 👏🏼
🤣😂🤣😁
Diabetes mama
@@doeeyes2 I love your username! Knick knock knick knock.
I like how she went on a rant that doesn't relate at all to the question that was asked
God damn. I thought that the only people any woman would have to worry about getting with their ex partner would be like. A close friend. But your own flesh and blood, and your MOTHER at that is absolutely the very last person I would ever imagine betraying their child like that. It's already bad enough when friends get with your ex, I can't even imagine how painful that would be. I actually know someone who did something similar though. My moms friend ended up dating her ex husbands son. My mom stopped talking to her because she thought it was so messed up and became close with her ex husband
As a mother how could you even let that happen? She might be happy with him but let’s just remember there’s effort in getting into a relationship, and she made that effort with her daughters ex husband in the first place. It’s abominable.
It's been done to me by my mother and cousins and friends..it's disgusting.
Wow that's messed up.... like what mother would do this
I've removed several toxic minded/hearted people from my life recently and the difference in mood, energy and most importantly peace, is night and day. This woman is self serving, what she did to her daughter is cold, no loyalty. I hope the daughter healed well and is thriving today, I'm sure it was/is so difficult.
THISSSSSS 💯💯💯💯
“It’s a free country”. She doesn’t get it.
There’s a reason he’s an EX. It doesn’t make it okay for the parent to date him. I would totally not be okay with this. My babies are first, not their ex significant other.
The ex husband is purposely trying to hurt his ex wife... 🙄 simple
Lord thank you for giving me the mother you did
Really sick family! I'm so sorry for all, involved! May therapy help in recovery and healing
My mouth literally dropped open, when the video started. My mom came from a verbally and physically abused. She would never in a million years do this to me. Holy cow.
What a toxic mother! She should be disowned! PERIOD! "I was in a verbally abusive relationship" so let me lash out and abuse my daughter! This woman has made a lifetime of poor choices and she hasn't stopped making those bad choices! Something is so off about her. Just wow!
My sons friends & my daughters exes came onto me. I set it straight. There's no way I would hurt my child like that. Now, I can understand why this woman is doing what she's doing. It's wrong, yet I can understand why she is doing it. She's lonely & someone is being nice to her.
I think you may be a little delusional. None of that happened to you.
@@tjm8128 Just because it never happened to you or you have never had people be attracted to you, doesn't mean that it doesn't happen to anyone else.
@@FreeSpirit47 ehh yeah ok
@@tjm8128 Thanks for revealing yourself to me. I wish you well.
@@FreeSpirit47 What are you even talking about “revealing yourself”. You’re just proving my point that you’re nuts.
She knows what boundaries are but throws in a million of excuses why she don’t have to acknowledge those boundaries... I’m grown ... this a free country.. we get along... well lady just add trifling to the list you forgot to say how trifling you are! Poor daughter
She looks like Haley Joel Osment 😁
😂😂😂😂
She does after he got fat 😅😅😅🤣🤣🤣🤪
Looks like she swallowed Haley Joel Osment...🤣
How trashy
Granny has lost her mind, hope she came to her senses.
What a loser. Imagine entering a relationship with your daughter’s ex and trying to justify it. My mom would never hear my voice again.
I would never choose anyone before my son. He is my backbone and my heart.
What a selfish mean mother! This mother seems to like to be unkind!! Horrible, disgusting!
“We’re” *NODDING* “not sexually active...”
That's disgusting.
So she decided to date the first person who was nice to her. Aka her daughters *husband* you’ve crossed the line sis
The reason people fall in love with someone who belongs to their closely related family members has always been strange for me. I have done some research on relationships people have with their family members spouses, for example, relationship with a brother in law and sister in law, son in law. Most of them have the common component of "feeling in control" and "feeling better than someone else". It becomes the person's way of saying: "See, how everyone thought I am not worthy, I am even better than my sister, brother. ....."
The main pleasure she is getting from the romance is the concept of "control". It is her way of saying "I can get everything you have. I am better than you", "You couldn't keep this man, see how I can make it work".
Lmao I can’t with the dead-eyed stares from her children 😂 You can tell they’ve been desensitized to her martyr complex
So let me get this straight- she came out of an abusive relationship so lets get in a relationship with her former son in law?? How does that make any sense at all
Using the “free country” defense to deflect from your own disgusting and emotionally abusive behavior is so entitled it’s sick.
Never heard ‘this is a free country’ outside of a middle school cafeteria line lmao
How dare she?! You’re dating her ex husband?! You’re sick!!!!
That's just WRONG. Period. There is NO justification. What does being in a verbally abusive relationship before have to do with this? Nothing. This being a free country has absolutely nothing to do with her behavior. I'll bet money that if somebody did this to her she would be very upset and very unforgiving. She's settling for crumbs if holding hands once in a while and kissing once in awhile is what she considers a real relationship.
Got rid of one narcissist only to get another. Just be happy alone!!
This is the first time Doc was speechless shid can't really blame him im still in shock
That’s TOTALLY DISGUSTING and no real mother would do???
Something was going on before her daughter got divorced.
Nope! The purest NOPE of all the NOPE given!
Ok I have officially seen everything. Oh dear god, this is so gross!
If my mom ever did this to me I would fight her, full stop.
WOW this is disgusting n shame on that mother for doing that to her own daughter!!
Dating your daughters leftovers is gross and the mom is being selfish. Her sob story isn't a reason for justification.
It creeps me out when people say their romantic partner "guided" them to become the person they "truly" are. I've never heard that from a person who didn't have seriously questionable things happening in their relationship.
We need a 5 year update on this story, Dr Phil. Seriously wondering if her and ken are still together?????
This is dispicable, I would never speak to this woman again. There is no good explanation lady! There is something wrong with you.
No words for this monstrosity of a situation 🤮
She's just his bonus-mom. She's being used.
Do they just tell her to sit on the bed and stare longingly so they can film? I find it so strange the shots they take with every episode back story hahah
Lmao you're so right
You are so right lol
What a damn shame...really its just so wrong of her to do this to her daughter. Disgusting behavior.
That is a ultimate betrayal. It’s disgusting.
This woman comes across as desperate to engage in this kind of behavior.
The wonders of this world shall never end! Not sure why anyone would do such a thing to their daughter😱😱😱
Is she really trying to justify this ....I would just have to throw he away
I would disown my mom. 100%. And when that man ditches her, she'll feel stupid and alone.
She will also feel very BROKE 🤑
" I undertand boundaries" she said.
dats disrespectful to her daughter
This is so wrong on so many levels.🤮
