Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, Steve. This is from Brianna on Steve Harvey FM.
Brianna says, I'm in my late twenties. I have a
good job, make good money, and I still live at
home with my parents, and honestly, I love it. We
get along great, split responsibilities, and I have my own space.
But some of my friends and coworkers act like it's
weird and even embarrassing that I haven't moved out yet.

(00:21):
I've started looking at apartments, but it feels like I'm
only doing it because of pressure from other people, not
because I actually want to leave. Is it wrong to
just do what makes me happy? Or are societal expectations
reason enough to finally get my own place? No?

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Stay in, stayed in.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
In some cultures that's very acceptable, right. The daughter stays
at the house until they get married. Married, right, and
you ain't got nobody on the hook.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yeah, and she enjoyed it.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
You ain't even hard dating?

Speaker 1 (00:55):
Yeah, yeah, so safe and she has her own space. Yeah, yeah,
it's pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
Wasting money. I couldn't stay at my mom and daddy
house in my twenties.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
Boy, buy because you're a man and you should be
out there.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
We had our standing twenties. O, Lord, phone cameras.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
No phone cameras, no social media.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Want I wasn't famous him white things.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
I know the things I gotta wait with.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
Thank you, thank you Lord, grateful, no phone care.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Yeah, I have no record of anything. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
So yeah, but she don't. Don't buckle under the pressure
of your coworkers and all of that society.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Right, do you girl? Listening to everybody? Right? I like that?

Speaker 3 (01:59):
And do you Yeah, she's in her late twenty when
you wear it out, do you save your money, get
your stack, your piper.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
That's right, that's right, that's right.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
All right, listening to everybody else, all right?

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Moving on to Katina, we have time for another one.
Steve Katina on Steve HARVEFM says, I think I've finally
found someone I can spend the rest of my life with.
My boyfriend is kind, open minded, intelligent, everything I've ever wanted.
He's met my family once, but it was a quick,
surface level visit. Why he doesn't know. What he doesn't

(02:38):
know is that they're not great people. They're crass, a
little racist, and say crazy things like it's no big deal.
I've spent most of my adult life distancing myself from them,
and now that this relationship is getting serious, I'm terrified
he's going to find out who they really are and
decide he wants no part of it or me. I

(02:59):
feel like I'm going to have to choose between the
man I love and the family I was born into.
What should I do?

Speaker 2 (03:05):
It must be I would go with the man you love?

Speaker 3 (03:08):
Yeah, and he black? Yeah, No, it ain't. This ain't everything.
A little bit, No, this ain't everything. His white girl
got her a black.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
Husband, that's what.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:25):
Yeah, Now here's the thing about this, And if it's not,
his disadvice applies black or white.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
It's very simple. You have found the.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
Man you think it's all of this and all that.
You found the man you think you are married with,
married with?

Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yo.

Speaker 3 (03:43):
Go now, now, let me ask you a question. Has
he said these words to you? Has he told you
this that he can't live without you, that you're the
woman for him, he won't spend the rest of your
life with him? Because right now, just one side I
think I found. Well, what has he as he told you?
What he found? You need to find that out because

(04:04):
you might not have to introduce him to your little
racist day, just a little race He might as well
just not even go over there and introduce him to
your little daddy, little fat archie bunkle.

Speaker 2 (04:17):
You just leave that alone, ye, daddy. This is the chante.
Name is Deshonte. What is that the shirt them Africa's Work. No,
that's daddy.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
