Tomfoolery Season: Scrambled Eggs Start A War

A snowbound afternoon, two viral clips, and a hard look at how everyday choices can blow up families. We start with a kitchen standoff where breakfast becomes a battleground: she cooks for herself and her daughter, tells her husband to fend for himself, and later calls his mother a “birth giver” after he drains their joint account. It sounds petty on the surface—scrambled vs. fried eggs—but we dig into why small acts matter, how vows imply a baseline of care, and why disrespect toward in‑laws can torch trust you can’t easily rebuild.

Then we shift to a Disneyland dilemma: a mother blocks her daughter from going with Dad’s side unless all her other kids are invited too. We unpack the difference between obligation and generosity, the traps of coerced “fairness,” and how kids get weaponized when adults feud. Instead of punishing one child to protect feelings, we talk through healthier scripts: prepare siblings with empathy, plan a special day for the ones staying home, and let generosity be voluntary, not demanded.

Across both stories, our throughline is responsibility without resentment. We ask what partners and parents truly owe, where boundaries should hold, and how to keep children out of adult crossfire. You’ll leave with practical ways to show respect in small moments, navigate blended‑family invitations without bitterness, and keep your focus on dignity, reciprocity, and the kids’ long‑term well‑being. If this sparks a memory or a strong opinion, we want to hear it. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs a nudge on boundaries, and drop a review with your take.

All right, good afternoon, good afternoon. Where is everybody at? How's everybody doing? I hope you're doing good. I hope everyone is having a marvelous and great day. It's your boy Damon. I'm here with the DK and Tree Podcast. Woo! Boy, the tomfoolery is on another level these days. Boy, it's snowing and y'all can't get your act together with stuff. I tell you, when I see stuff, you know I always come on here and I try to share things with you all. Because again, the tomfoolery is on another level. Got two stories for you today. One, be careful of who you talk to as far as getting a relationship with. Because again, when you want to talk to someone and they don't align what you align with, then let them be. Let them, especially if you know up front. Well, the person said the person knew up front, but especially if you know what's going to come through and they can't do like basic stuff to meet you just even a little bit of the way, especially if you do one thing and they can't do something for you. But again, I always bring stuff on here. I let you voice your opinion. We're gonna hear what she has to say about her husband, and then we're gonna talk about it just for a little bit, and then we're gonna go to the second story. So, of course, let's get this one on and popping.

SPEAKER_02: 1:36

My husband is mad at me because he walked in and he saw that I'm making breakfast, and I told him that this was for me and my daughter, and that if he wanted something, he needed to cook for himself. I told him I was not going out of my way to make breakfast for him. This is only for me and my daughter. Like, if you're that hungry, there's a McDonald's on the street. There's eggs in the fridge and there's bacon, and you can make it yourself. He's acting like this is not cooking for him thing is. I gave him a list of things that I told you the day that we got married. And he was okay with it. So what I told him if you don't want to come, we could wait and see if there's any leftovers. If there's leftovers, if there's no leftovers, then I'm sorry. You're gonna have to hurry up. But I'm not gonna come for you. I'm sorry. And then I'll pop a lot. I'm sorry. That's that's too much work. I'm not gonna do it. So my husband decided to drain her joint bank account and leave me after so much controversy on my videos. I guess he got, you know, wind of the videos, and yeah, he drained her bank account, and then he has told me that I have to leave after I thought he was gonna be gone and that I was gonna be able to stay here. But he returned and he said that I need to pack up my things and go. I told him absolutely not because I have children, and me and my children are not gonna be in the street. So I told him that he has to evict me. And the one that gave him this idea of leaving me was his birth giver. Yes. His mother was the one that gave him the grand idea to be eating.

D.K: 3:19

Wow, that's a lot to unpack here. A lot to unpack. So let me get this straight. So you're cooking, you're cooking, and you can't cook for your husband. Not your boyfriend, not not your someone you're just randomly talking to, but your husband. Your husband. You can't cook for him. Yeah, yeah, I take the glasses off of that one. You can't cook for your husband. Second of all, you saying that I had scramble eggs and he wanted a fry egg. What is the big deal? That's your husband. You should at least accommodate him for your husband. I'm pretty sure the she was on the other foot that he would do the for you if he was having a fried egg and you wanted to scramble eggs, he would scramble you some eggs. So you can't do that just basic necessity for your husband. Come on now, give me give me a break. Give me a break. So I don't think that it was just this one incident to do we get to the second part of where he drained the bank account, the joint bank account, and said, Hey, hey, you got to go. Look, listen, you can't do basic stuff, and you got to go again. There's three sides to every story, so we only hearing her side of the story, we don't hear his side of the story or anything like that. But what I'm saying is this is that if you can't do something for your significant other, and then y'all don't need to be together because the simple fact that remember, if this is your husband, so you take vows for this, better or worse, rich or poor, sickness of health to death to your part, right? Well, that sound like that she was just selfish on every level. Like, I'll do for my kids, but I'm not doing for you. And I'm like, that's terrible to feel that way. So, what if something would have actually happened to her husband? Would you be there supportive? Well, well, he was supposed to do all this, but he better figure it out. He needs to heal and and figure all this out because I only need to worry about me and my kids. That's just selfish, that's selfish on every level, on every level to be that way. So now we get to the part he drains the uh count, and this is the part where I thought it was disrespectful. She said his birth giver, his mother. That is totally disrespectful on every level there is. You still respect that person's mom as their mother. Now you did say mother after you said birthgiver. So you're telling me that you're upset with the mom for giving her son some sound and good advice. So now you're upset because your selfish ways and your selfish mentality is being exposed. No, you should be upset with yourself and your behavior before you be upset with someone else. Because I totally don't agree with disrespecting someone's parents at all. And just even in the interaction of the video, I didn't even agree with uh anything you were saying because of the simple fact that that's that's that's ridiculous. And uh that doesn't make any sense. And what I'm saying is is this you gotta do better. If you want better, you gotta do better, you have to do better for yourself, and you're not doing better for yourself, then how can you be better for someone else? I thought that was inconsiderate, I thought that was selfish, and I just thought that, and then for the fact you upset with the mom because she was giving her son sound advice. Ma'am, shame on you. Do better, do better. I'm gonna pass that one on by. Now we get on to the second story. Be careful who you have kids with. I'm just saying, be careful who you have kids with, because some people are very, very selfish, and you know, there's been a lot of videos popping around on social media, like people bringing um their kids something, but they bring the other kids something, and then the parents are getting upset. Oh, you should have brought my kids something. Well, why is he obligated to do that? That's the only thing I'm saying. Why is he obligated to bring your other children that are not his anything? Now, the backlash you'll get from it is oh, you know, that should be the gentleman man to do, he should take care of the other kids too, this and that. Why? Why? Why should I take care of something that's not my responsibility? My responsibility is to my child and my child only, not her other kids. Where are their fathers or father? Where they need to take care of that, not me. That burden and responsibility does not fall on me. We are not together, we are not married, we're not in a relationship, so that burden and responsibility doesn't fall on me. And again, you get a lot of backlash behind this. Like some women are just selfish, yeah, and some men are too. But what I'm saying is, is this in that instance, that's not my responsibility, that's not my responsibility to take care of your other children, no matter what I do for my child. So I'm gonna bring this one on in here, and we're gonna talk about this one after she gets done talking.

SPEAKER_01: 9:14

Yes, I am the mother who is not allowing her daughter to go to Disneyland unless her father's side of the family takes the rest of the kids. I have six kids total, four different fathers. Okay, my daughter was invited to Disneyland by her father's side of the family. Now, her father was once the rest of the kids' stepfather. Okay, these kids called him dad at one point in their life. He invited my daughter to go to Disneyland. I told him, you were bringing, you were taking the other five kids where she is not going. There's no possible way I am going to allow one of my children to go to Disneyland. Could you imagine? Could you imagine being 10 years old seeing your sister pick to go to Disneyland and the rest of the kids can't go? Just because I made poor choices, I am not going to punish my children for those poor choices. You can hate on me. It don't matter to me. My daughter is not going to Disneyland unless her father takes the rest of the kids. Period.

D.K: 10:36

Wait, wait, wait, wait. My daughter is not going to Disneyland unless the father's side of the family take the other kids. You got to be kidding me. Where on that father side of the family are they obligated to take care of your other kids? They're not. They're not a part of their family. They're not obligated to do that. That's their grandchild granddaughter that they wanted to take to Disneyland. And you being a selfish mother, because that's what you are, selfish, want to restrict the kid from going to Disneyland because your other children are not involved. It's what I just said earlier before I started that video. We're not in a relationship, we're not married, and I'm not obligated to them kids. So you can't hold me to a standard that I'm not obligated to. And now you're causing friction and you're holding the kid hostage from enjoying their self because the other parents ain't involved in their children's lives from what we see from the video. But what I'm saying is this is that this is a problem that we have out here when it comes to having children with people, because some people are spiteful, and especially if they're mad with the person, the other party, they use the children as pawns, and it happens all the time. Again, that father side of the family is not obligated to them other kids, they're not their blood, they're not anything to them. Now, if they would have offered to take the kids, that's one thing. They're not offering. They never offered. They said, I want my granddaughter, I'm gonna take her here. But you see, it's so sad that when you try to do a good thing with kids out here that the parents can be spiteful, evil, and hateful and keep them away. And it's truly sad. It's a big, big problem out here. A big problem. Let these kids be a part of their parents' lives, both sides. Because if you don't, then the child grows up with resentment. Resentment to a parent and didn't understand the circumstances because of the simple fact that one person was being spiteful. And that goes for fathers and mothers. That goes for everybody. It really makes no sense for us to act like that out here. And in both of these situations that I just shared today, both of those parents seem sound really selfish. They do, they sound really selfish. If you wanted your other kids to go to Disney World, you should have made a way. Not uh forcing that on um the other parents. You should make a way that they go. That should be coming out of your pocket. You should be reaching out to their fathers. Then you had four other baby daddies. You should be reaching out to them. Hey, my kids want to go to Disney World. I need some money. That's what you should be doing. That burden doesn't fall on someone else's family. But that's my two cents. That's my that's my two cent today. Like I said, it really hurts me to see this type of behavior going on out here because there are people out here actually like that. And they don't they don't care, they don't care about your feelings, they don't care about nothing. Only thing they care about is their self. And if you don't feed into their selfishness, then you are the problem. You have the problem. Again, that's my two cent. I just want to come on in and share these two. You know, when I see tomfoolery, I bring the tomfoolery with you all because I definitely want to hear from your opinions about this one. But I'm gonna go ahead, I'm gonna cut this one. Um, hey, everybody have a great day. Um, they say we have another snowstorm, any areas that's affected and don't have power. Hey, my prayers are out for you. Anyone that's still stuck in the snow like I am, hopefully we'll get out of this eventually. I'll see you all later.
