Y'all are dragging Akbar for being a mother. Now I know she's not the greatest mother, neither, none of us are, okay? I mean, look at Jada Pinkett. Man, look at Tasha K. We are not the greatest mothers out here. But if you mothering, that's all that matters. And I just don't understand why people are trying to come for her, you know what I'm saying? When she's simply having a discussion with her child and it happened to happen while she was on live because that's when kids like to try you. They like to try you when you on the phone, Or when you lie, they like to try to act out thinking that you wouldn't get in their ass the same way that you would normally get in their ass. You know what I'm saying? So her son had this coming. I let you slide because you ain't— you, you, you, and you be doing that football. You are— you off this whole week and ain't playing. You gonna wash some dishes because that's what I said last week. Ain't no child finna tell me what he ain't gonna do in my damn house. And she is right. Everybody want to crucify her on how to be a mother. Not everybody is the same type of mother, and there's nothing wrong with her being that type of mother.
