This mom is a beautiful soul. The way she's raising her daughter is beautiful. She'd be such a blessing to a worthy man. All the best to you, Angelina and Melitza!

Co-parenting with an abusive ex is sooo hard. No matter what you do, you're the bad guy. If you try to protect your kids from them, you're "keeping them from their father". If you don't tell the kid what happened in the past, you're not being honest. If you do tell them, you're painting him out to be a monster. If he keeps flaking on them, you have to make up excuses to try and protect your kids, and you have to be there to handle their disappointment and pain. If your kid decides they don't want to see him, it's YOUR fault. It's just one of the hardest crosses to bear.

She is such a beautiful, wholesome, and precious mom.

"Research things for yourself...no matter if you learned it in school. Yes?" YES. 👐 👐

I the moms aura, her soft spoken ways and just how in tune she is to her daughter's feelings and attitude. she is definitely teaching me for when my time comes.

[Enlightened]

I love when you have updates on previous guests. I love these two. This mom rocks!

Omg! I remember when I was 13 and JUST like this! She is just like me with the glasses and curly hair and Harry Potter shirt! Only a few years ago. I'm 19 now. Her personality has changed some but mom's is the same. If I had any unsolicited advice to give, I would say remind her that it is okay to be her because no one else's opinions matter so long as she is still a respectful and kind person. What other people have to say doesn't matter and don't let other people pressure her into changing herself, she is fine just the way she is. Whether it's how she looks or acts or what she's into, it's okay to speak up, don't let other people shrink you. Awesome mom and daughter <3

She's grown up so beautifully wow.

6:31 - Mom’s answer to daughter’s question: If this was our last conversation what would say to me? This was so moving. It really indicates how much of an amazing person she is.

Such a beautiful mother/daughter relationship.
I bought the family edition of the cards in time for Christmas last year and there were so many emotions. Happy, sad, tears and laughter. I’m grateful 💕

[jillian]

Just like any woman, I aspire to be an amazing mom. This is so real and raw and wholesome and inspires me in a whole other level. It shows the struggles of life and parenting but still managing to be the best version of yourself for your child, and guiding them in the best directions

"...stand by your truth, and always live with integrity"....Absolutely, positively outstanding!! She will always be successful in all she does if she lives by those words.

[lizkirema]

[missgunst]

She is so honest with the question what did change since the last interview. Both are deeply honest, for sure.

[user_abcxyzz]

Mama has good advice. Love the way she speaks to her daughter, respectfully. Makes her verry attractive tbh.

It's only been 2 years and wow she's not a little girl anymore, unbelievable. Her mom is so strong and sweet, such a great mom.

[AverageJocelyn]

I am 34 I grew up raised by my grandparents and every topic was hush and closed off to discuss comfortably so I became rebellious and went left bc I didn’t know NOT TO & when i was caught I was reprimanded and punished and judged.... that was old school parenting. I WISH I had this dynamic growing up
