Are there ANY solid women in Will Smith's Life? He Needed to Invoke the Spirit of Joe JACKSON on Willow

[blockburna420]

It is what it is

I remember i wanted to go to Tae Kwon Do and moms signed me up when I was like 7.

They had a lil nikka doing knuckle push ups and reading books n shyt

I told my og I don't wanna do this no more


she had me in that bih till I was a 3rd degree blue belt.

So what exactly is the problem here? He said this was in 2010 willow was either 9 or 10 years old at that time touring which is well documented to come along with a bunch of stressful problematic factors with a rigorous schedule difficult to maintain. if she said she is done. there shouldn’t be a discussion that’s it and that’s all her physical and mental health overrides any contract and profits. expecting heavy commitment on this which she possibly didn’t even make in the first place (not that it matters anyway because she was a child) is flat out idiotic af.

The fans obsession over making Will Smith some kind of super victim in every situation is weird to me, just like Will Smith playing into that role

And yeah, it goes without saying that the whole situation could have been avoided had he done his job of communicating and informing the performer

People are starting to realize that Joe Jackson wasn’t the villain after all: he’s been the blueprint.

A lot of boomers try to make their parents out to be villains, yet wanna cry when we criticize them.

People don’t look at context either. Raising 9 black children during Jim Crow in Gary, Indiana: he had to be tough on the children.

If Joe Jackson applied today’s parenting back then, the Jacksons would still live in abject poverty. None of them would’ve made it out the hood. It’s not like Gary improved decades later.

So if you sign your kid up for a sport they seem to enjoy you let them walk off the field mid game when they start to lose?

 

[O.T.I.S.]

I’m just glad I’m not the only one noticing this shyt with females/young people, based off the conversations below it.

Dealing with some goofy shyt now, where a family member pressing other people over some shyt she doesn’t want to “Inconvenience” herself to do, and also never done before.

Was about to get her ass cussed tf out over it too. Don’t talk shyt about what others do if you too p*ssy to do what they’ve already done before.

But more on topic, if you make an obligation, keep your fukking word or keep your fukking mouth shut.

They just wanna make him a victim to talk shyt about Pac. Like @King Poetic making a comment about "jada being stuck in 96" they're not fooling anybody

Will wanted his family to be too much of this Power Fam. You not gonna get that without being Joe Jackson. He ain't built to push OR discipline his family. He wants to be cool with everyone. That's his ultimate ruin.

You literally could write the 49th Law of Power on his life.

 

[3rdWorld]

Weird for a Hollywood guy to not trash his family and start all over.

I'd have a huge problem with that

So you think you can quit and drop your commitments?

I told you before the tour and you agreed

Nah I got a wig for your ass, sorry not sorry, that follow through is important

 

[Rekkapryde]

Have to teach kids to finish the job you committed to.
If your word is no good, you no good

no one wants to teach accountability anymore.


If she wanted to stop, fine. Do it AFTER your honor your committment.

Obviously the fact she still tours till this day says enough

The point is you don’t just plop kids into an environment like that and expect it to work.


Was she playing sports from 4, 5, 6,7,8,9? Did she know what it was like to face adversity, stress, be a team player? Was she singing, rehearsing for hours? Auditioning for labels?



Yea, probably not.



She wasn’t trained or built for that shyt.


You see how Bey had Blue on tour last year as a beginner, learning to be a dancer/perfomer? In the beginning it was clear she was learning. Now, a year later on this new tour babygirl was killing it. Even did her mommy’s signature strut down the stage.


Will and Jada probably didn’t have their child go through half of the stuff I mentioned before throwing her on a damn tour.

She wasn’t built for it. THAT is the point.

It’s not being “built” for it or whatever that means from a character standpoint… it’s something you live up to via hard work and values…. It’s not like she was physically handicapped or touring like James Brown in his prime

Yup…. This is why fathers are more important than ever in current day society
