- I'm ready, Mommy.
- What's that?
- A movie.
- Yeah, I know that.
What's that about?
What it's about?
- Stuff.
- I don't know. - Have you not seen it?
You ever seen it? - Yeah, I saw it.
It's about a girl who is five.
But then her mom is hit by a car.
- Ooh.
- So then the mom is like a demon,
tries to kill everybody.
- What the [bleep]?
- Then the mom was like,
trying to take the girl from the dad.
- What the [bleep] is happening right now?
- Wait, that is not the movie that they was watching.
- Wait, is that a real movie? - Is that a real movie?
Or is she trying to like, throw shade at her mom?
- Is she being funny or what? - See?
Now, see, you cannot tell me
that they are not talking about certain things
in front of this girl.
She just made up a whole story about being taken from the dad.
- I need to know the movie title.
- Right? - I need to know the title too.
- 'Cause I wasn't feeling that.
- I need to know the movie title.
- Good story.
[laughter]
- Yo.
What?
What is even going on?
- Jesus.
She just sipped the tea.
She just said-- [slurps]
- Maybe she made all that up in her head to like,
[bleep] with her mom.
- Maybe she did.
- I would do that. I would do that.
[laughter]
- If I can say one thing, I do feel like
the interaction should be different.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- It seems like Amber is just like,
we might see that she care when she's not there.
But I do see how Leah is probably like,
what the hell is this?
- It's like, behind--
whenever she's alone, she definitely expresses
that she wants that relationship.
But in front of her, she definitely puts, like,
bare minimum energy into--
- Probably because she doesn't know the boundaries.
- Yeah.
- And she doesn't want to overwhelm her.
- Right, she doesn't want to overstep, probably.
- Yeah, that's probably what it is,
that she doesn't want to overstep.
- That's why this situation is so sad to me, and so tricky.
Because it's like, Amber, like, she's not wrong
and she's not right.
And you know?
- Yeah, it's very iffy. - It's very tricky.
- Oh, my God, I'm so sorry, guys.
I'm like, super tired.
- She's gonna leave?
- See, this [bleep] pisses me off.
- She just got there, and she's already trying to leave.
Kristina looks so annoyed.
- Thank you for inviting me over, honestly.
- Yeah. - All right.
Well, love you guys.
I'll see you soon.
- Sounds good.
- I got my doggy bag. I'm out, bye.
- Dang, Leah didn't even say bye or anything.
- Aww.
- See, they allow that kind of interaction.
And I'm--Gary, you all good, but I'm so disappointed.
- That was tough.
- Yeah, and then I know Amber's [bleep] nervous and scared.
I feel, personally, Gary and his wife
could have done a lot better job in like,
trying to make it comfortable.
If you were asking Nova what movie is that,
and she's like, "It's about stuff,"
like, I know she's angry and whatever,
but I would have been like, "Nova, what's the movie about?
Tell your mom what the movie's about."
You know what I mean?
Like, stop being like that. - True.
- I would literally call the kid out.
- Yeah, I won't let Nova brush you off.
I would have been like, "Nova, stop being
"like that with your mom.
What's the movie about?"
- Yeah.
- I'm stressed out.
Just, I'm not even part of that family, I'm stressed out.
- I literally was holding my [bleep] breath.
- I think the whole visit, just...
- Disaster.
- Was so wrong on so many levels.
- I just lost my oxygen. I forgot how to breathe.
- Hi, Mama.
- Okay. - Period.
- I love you.
I love you. - She made it very clear.
- I'm not trying to bother you,
and I'm not trying to interrupt.
- Yeah, she's like, I am trying to avoid getting yelled at.
- Right.
- I love you, have fun, be good.

- I can feel that I'm not healthy right now.
- Let's look at your lifestyle, first of all.
What does a typical day of eating look like for you?
- So in the morning, a banana or nothing.
- She's looking like, uh...
- For lunch, it's usually Chick-fil-A.
- That's why she tired. - That's why--right!
- Maci, you're tired 'cause you only
had a banana for breakfast.
- Your diet is terrible, Mama. - And a Chick-fil-A.
- She ain't eating [bleep].
- Where's dinner?
Where's the snacks in between?
- You're not taking in a lot of food.
- No. - Not a lot of nourishment.
Let's talk about your sleep.
- There was a very traumatic incident
that happened that has truly turned insomnia
into, like, I do not go to sleep because I'm afraid to.
- Why is she afraid to go to sleep?
- Because of the shooting.
- She needs to get that-- like, the insomnia together
because if you go without sleep, that can, like,
really mess with your mental health.
- Literally, even two days can make you, like, see [bleep].
- Yes.
- What I think would be helpful is, like, a sleep ritual.
- Maybe she should try, like, CBD tea or something
to help her go to sleep.
- Maybe, it could help.
- Benadryl makes me tired.
- Yeah, but don't-- [laughter]
- Just popping Benadryls to go to sleep.
Kayla, what the [bleep]?
- What are some of the things you think you could do?
- I did hot tea, meditation, journaling...
- Journaling. I like journaling.
- And creating a bedtime. - Yeah.
- This is a great start for her.
- That would suck to, like, have a health issue
and have to, like, change your--
- The biggest change--
- When I got my surgery, they told me I couldn't drink.
- Yeah. - That was hard.
- That was very hard for the both of us.
- But this has nothing to do with my health.
Like, literally, I'm over here like,
yeah, that was [bleep] up.
- That [bleep] was [bleep] up.
- Who's this? - Mackenzie.
- It's Mackenzie. You can tell by the music.
- We loved celebrating Broncs' accomplishment,
but Josh and I still have to decide
whether or not we want to hold Jaxie back from second grade.
- Mackenzie's so built. I wish.
- I'm already kind of stressed about the summer.
- What's wrong with him?
- He's chewing on tobacco.
That's what that is. - No.
- It's in here, so he can't really move
his bottom lip because then it's gonna come out.
And if you taste it, it's really nasty.
So he can't move his bottom lip,
so he talks like this.
You see? He talks like this.
- Isn't that uncomfortable?
- It's very uncomfortable.
- No, no, here.
Put a piece of salami and see if you can do it.
- Let me see.
Let's try it.
- We're going to hell. - Keep it in your lip and talk.
[laughter]
- No.
- You look like you got socked by Mayweather, bro.
The [bleep]?
- Jaxie's already having trouble.
- Yeah.
- But she is at the right age to be held back.
- I don't think they should hold her back.
- Yeah, that would be tough.
But it probably would be the best thing.
- Yeah, I think now is definitely the time to do it.
- They tried to hold me back for third grade
because I didn't speak English that well.
- You didn't speak English?
- Yeah, they tried to hold me back,
and I told them, don't [bleep] do me like that.
Don't do me like that. - I'm not even from here.
- Exactly, you gon' hold me back, like, for real?
Put her ass in summer school.
- First through fifth grade is the time
because if you're in middle school,
kids are gonna be more resentful.
They're gonna be embarrassed.
- I don't know.
I think I would have to hold my child back too.
- I don't know if that still exists.
I don't think they're holding anybody back.
- Girl, I've been held back. What you talking about?
- I feel like if my child is not where she needs to be,
I wouldn't want her to go to the next grade
and fail again or be lost.
So I would have to hold them back
and let them do the year all over again.
- It's okay.
- Yeah, it might suck now, but,
you know, later on in life, it might actually help her out.
- Okay. - Okay, yeah.
- That's the first intelligent thing I heard him say
this whole [bleep] time.
I know why I don't like him,
because I think I remember some stuff.
I think he was doing her dirt ball,
and I did not like that.
- Oh, he was cheating on her. - He--yeah.
-And I saw something with the cousin.
- What?
The cousin? - Yes.
- Yes, I saw it.
- Oh, hell no.
At this point, it's Mackenzie's [bleep] fault
because if he cheated on you with your cousin,
why are you still with him?
- They've been together since the beginning, right?
- But they break up, like, a million times a month.
- Like, they're broken up right now.
She's, like, going to the club, all that type of [bleep].

- Probably as good as it could have gone.
I mean, even though Leah has her own little way
she feels and things,
I think that she was comfortable enough.
Amber did a little too in not pushing
or pressuring Leah for anything.
I think yesterday went very well.
- I mean, I think it's a start.
- It's interesting to me that, like, Kristina and Gary
feel like the meeting went really well,
where we thought Amber was kind of standoffish.
- Mm, I don't think that's how Kristina really felt
because I saw her little...
at the beginning.
- Both their faces, they knew it was a bad time.
Awkward as [bleep].

And that's not happening. And that's not happening.

you were frustrated.
But you didn't show that inside their house.
You didn't show them that kind of frustration.

You don't want to be like that in front of them
when you're trying to hold things together.
- Okay, Amber.
- She handled it well. - She did.
- You could see it all over her face though.
- All over her face. She was hurt.
- She was holding it in like the old Amber
about to come out, but you know, I'm better now.
- Right.
- The only thing that bothered me with Leah
is she was kind of getting a little snappy at a point
where she's like, it's a movie.
- She is Ali and Aleeah's age.
Their friends hear about everything on me,
so they know who I am.
They know situations I've been through.

Like, this is embarrassing, or this is...

Why don't we forget about them being in the spotlight

- They just want you there, your presence.

- It felt good.
I mean, it's been a little while since the last time
I went there.

- I couldn't do it. - I know, right?
- How could you not see your kid and not hug them?
- That's what I'm saying.

She didn't want to push her daughter.

No matter how she keeps saying
she doesn't want me to be there...

I only hug Nova and Stella. I don't hug you [bleep].
