I'm not believing you because I know he wouldn't do that, but I know that he did. London, if he did that to you, you would have came to me when he did it. No, I wouldn't have because I know you wouldn't believe me, 'cause you're not even believing me right now. I don't know how many times I have to repeat this. You keep thinking that he wouldn't, and I didn't think that he would either, but he did. I know he wouldn't do that. I don't get what's wrong with you. Like, what is it that you're trying to create? I'm not trying to create anything, but fine, whatever. I know even wouldn't believe me anyway, whatever. Like, just keep it to yourself 'cause I know he's not going to do it. I'm leaving.

And I want you to know that I will never ever treat you different. And I learned my lesson today. Can you please forgive me? Fine. I love [Music] you. We hope you enjoy this short film that we just did for you guys, and it's

to raise awareness on being a family and listening to your children. Absolutely, guys, you have to listen to your children. You know, I'm not saying every kid tells the truth or that kids don't lie, but still, listen to them. And even if they lie, understand why they lie and try to seek and understand where that is coming from. There's a reason for everything. And, um, it's important that us mothers, we tend to sometimes move on because our relationships didn't work out with the previous dad or just your previous relationship didn't work out, and we trust a little bit fast, which can cause a lot sometimes. And you cannot trust any man around your kids. You cannot. You just can't trust nobody around your kid. You have to build that. You have to take time with that. It's really serious that you do. And, um, that is a big awareness for our children out there, you know, especially the moms that get caught up. Pay attention to your kids. Keep them men away for a long time and just start very slowly, you know, like

that we want to bring awareness to acceptance. A lot of time in step-parent homes, the stepdad or stepmom having a hard time accepting the stepchild, and guys, that's a big red flag. Guys, if your partner doesn't accept your child, always pay attention to small details, pay attention to everything, pay attention to the way him or her treats your child all the time, especially when you guys are together. Pay attention to how each his or her kids versus your kids. That's not his or her. Yeah, but a lot of the times, sometimes they hide it. Mhm. So, I would just say, like, you know, you have to be around, you have to be around, and if you're not around, make sure you have that third eye. Not because a kid is not your kid, that doesn't mean you should not show the kid love or treat the kid equal as yours. But really and truly, if you're married and you love your wife or your husband, even if you're not married, if that's the person you love, you have to love

everything that they come with, and they come with a child, which is the most precious thing in this world. So why would you want to leave a child left out? You know what I'm saying? I also feel like, kind of like, even if you don't, 'cause I don't want to say I feel like if you're going to get with someone, you have to love what they come with, but sometimes that's not always the case. But if you love that person enough, love them enough to respect their kid and treat their kid fair. Absolutely, you know, because I mean, sometimes kids don't want to give these step-parents a chance, right? But despite that, keep trying, don't give up, and make sure that you could treat the kid as good as possible, even if the kid is a jerk. You absolutely just never let a kid feel left out, no matter the circumstances, no matter the situation. And guys, as I depict in this short film, I ripped up London drawing that she did for me. The family, it's all props f to do in this short.
