Keke Palmer’s Shocking Claims About Darius Jackson REVEALED

Happy Friday, everybody. You did it. We are at the end of the week. Question of the day. Should parents take their young children to nice restaurants? And I'm asking you this question because an incident occurred in Georgia in which a couple that had many kids, three of their own, but the table had about nine children, were hit with a surcharge of $50 for having misbehaved children. And the internet is divided on whether or not the manager and owner of that restaurant were doing the right thing. Plus, later on in the show, we earlier on covered Kiki Palmer and her relationship. Well, she has just now filed some shocking surveillance camera images of her ex, Darius Jackson, beating her at her home as she seeks a restraining order in full custody of their son. So that's an important update to that story. All that and more today coming up on Candace Owens. Gentle parenting, we've talked about on the show many times. Everybody's doing it in this new age except for me and people that have our senses and realize that children are actually meant to be disciplined. I was scrolling through Instagram and I saw this really funny skit. Don't worry, no child was harmed in the making. There's no child in the background. This guy is just being funny. This is just for humor. Take a listen. Hey, hey, hey. I know you're frustrated, okay? I know you're having these big feelings that you don't know what to do with. But if you don't shut the f**k up and put your shoes on, then I'm going to start having big feelings and I might start screaming, which is going to make you have even bigger feelings. Isn't that scary? Yeah, so let's lift those crocs on, okay? Very funny. Me attempting gentle parenting would look something like that. And of course, no, we don't swear at our children or anything like that. But I don't tolerate my children throwing temper tantrums. Obviously, I got into this just a little bit a few weeks ago when I was talking about why I have zero tolerance. A zero tolerance policy on college campuses when people come up to me and they whine because I can't be your mommy. That's why I am not here to be your mother. I don't allow this whining and people throwing temper tantrums. And I have a two-year-old and a one-year-old. People think that typically that is permissible, that you should expect that two-year-olds are going to throw temper tantrums and throw themselves on the floor. Yeah, you should expect it, but you should not accept it. You are rearing them to be responsible adults. And so we very much believe in discipline in our household. We love ourselves a good time out if they need it. I always say to my son, look, it's very clear right now that you need some you time, obviously. And I actually need some me time. So we're going to put you in. No, I don't want to time out. Very effective parenting strategy for my son. So why are we talking about this? Well, because the internet is currently divided when it comes to a circumstance. There was a mother that is slamming a Georgia restaurant. It's called Taqua Riverside after they charged her $50, get this, for being unable to parent her badly behaved children. So I'm going to ask you whose side you are on in this predicament. So first and foremost, let's just get to what actually took place. The young woman, her name is Lindsay Landman, and her husband, Kyle, are slamming the restaurant in Blue Ridge, Georgia. And they left a review on Google saying that the owner came out and told them that he was adding $50 to the bill because of their children's behavior. Now, they have three young boys ranging from the ages of three to eight years old. They were also with four other families. So it was a total of 11 children that sat at this table. So you can only imagine how insane the level of energy must have been, of course, when you have that many children. But particularly, I guess there was some focus on their three young boys' ages. Again, three to eight. Now, the way Lindsay sang the story, she says, the kids were sitting at one end of the table and they were being so good. I even commented halfway through the meal, I can't believe how well behaved they are. So I'm just going to pause right there and tell you that because Lindsay is saying that her children were perfectly behaved and her husband is saying that thereafter, while he was paying the bill, the children were escorted outside by his wife and they ran around and there was no further incident, I can tell you that they're lying. Because if you have three young boys ages three to eight years old, even if you leave the restaurant and you go, they were mostly well-behaved, they were not perfectly well-behaved. So if your storyline is that your three-year-old at a restaurant was perfectly well-behaved, you just are probably not telling the truth. Least of all, when it's a boy, they have more energy. Least of all, when there's three boys. But that's the story and they're sticking to it. So they're saying that they were expecting, as his wife took the three children outside, for the owner to come out and give them a compliment when they saw him approaching. But rather than get a compliment, they were shocked when they were told that there was going to be $50 added to each of their bills at the table because of the way the children were acting. He says, pardon, Lindsay says, that when they asked for an explanation, the manager, whose name is Tim Richter, said it was because the children were being so loud. He was also angry that they were running around outside, even though they were chaperoned by adults. They're disputing his claims because he says their children were quiet the entire time. He has no idea why the manager then got in their face and told them that he belonged at a Burger King and not at his restaurant. So again, just being a person with common sense, you know this owner did not just randomly decide to thug some kids and go up in their dad's face and say that they belong in a Burger King because he watched three saintly behaved boys and said, I'm going to pick on these kids today. Obviously, the kids were misbehaved, but so it doesn't bring us to an or conclusion about whether or not this owner had a right to add $50 to their tab, which I want to add the owner is denying. He says that he never actually formally charged the family. He only gave them a stern warning and told them that they want parents to act like parents in a restaurant. And that is something that I can get behind. Now, everybody knows I'm a bit of an extremist when it comes to children in restaurants. Sometimes I earn the ire of my fans when I say certain things that there are places that are acceptable to bring your children. And there are places that you should not bring your children and you should make those assessments as a parent. Yes. Are there family friendly restaurants? Yes. Of course. If you are at an IHOP, you are expecting to see children. Um, you're expecting to hear and have children shout. If you were at a waffle house, if you were at a Burger King, if you were at friendlies, I think that friendlies is now extinct. I might be dating myself right now. Uh, you expect to see children. And when you are going there, you are accepting that all of you are going to be in a little bit of a more chaotic environment. I have a very strict policy. I refuse to take my children out to restaurants, any of them ever at an age where I don't feel that their behavior is appropriate. And so typically from the age of one to two is an absolute no for me. When I had my infant child and she was just kind of sitting, um, in, you know, inside of one of those wrap shirts, totally fine to take her to a restaurant because she's sleeping half the time and she can't talk. My son from one to two, I would never have taken him to a restaurant. Now he's starting to calm down a little bit. There might see some, be some specially approved places, but I'm pretty militant about the idea that your children should be in child-friendly spaces. And generally speaking, restaurants are not child-friendly places unless you're planning some birthday party. You've got a private room. There's nothing more obnoxious than when you go out to a restaurant and somebody has a child that is acting completely and utterly out of control. And the child, you need to speak to these adults and they say, well, what are we supposed to do? Never go out to eat again. Well, going out to eat just so everybody knows it's a privilege. It's an actual privilege. This is my radical E my radical perspective. As I said about children and restaurants is that it's always should be a privilege. And you should be hopefully speaking to your children at an age where they understand that it's a privilege. And the reason that I really recognize this, this idea that Americans have kind of let go of polite culture. You see this all around. I recognize the differences the most staunchly when I travel overseas. When I first traveled over to England, I was an assistant. I was flat broke. I was doing some work for my boss. You just immediately, when you arrive, recognize that there are a lot of differences in the way that we are parenting our children, the way that we are presenting our children and the places that we believe that our children should have a right to. There is a common understanding and a common culture when you are in England that children should be a little bit more respectable. I'm saying and I recognize this even the way that the adults are dressing. You know, we see a lot of parents wearing sweatpants and T-shirts. They don't they don't view going out to eat as a privilege of you as a right. And this kind of gets into a conversation we had a while ago about when Dennis Prager on his show was describing how when people used to fly, they used to wear suits. It was this remarkable privilege to be able to fly. Now you look at people, everybody's wearing yoga pants, everybody's shouting, everybody's angry. Even that, the conduct of individuals in Europe and in the UK in airports is something that is noticeably different when I'm there because I travel so much. And obviously my kids are now dual citizens of the UK and America. There is just naturally this understanding that you will come to when you travel the world. In America, we have come to view things that are privileges as expectations. Yeah, I've got my kids here. Yeah, my kids can shout. My kids can say whatever they want. You just have to accept it because I'm paying a premium to be here at your restaurant. It's a horrible way of thinking, especially me being someone that worked in restaurants all the time. People, it's very difficult when you have children that are completely misbehaved, even more difficult when their parents are completely ignoring them with the expectation that the waiter, the manager and everybody else is going to handle everything. You should make an effort to parent your children everywhere. It doesn't like step into a restaurant. You just go, OK, well, it doesn't matter anymore because I'm in a restaurant. It actually matters more because you're in a restaurant. It matters more because these are small business owners. Usually, you're dealing with a small business owner. You're not dealing with a chain. And they care about their spaces. I make every effort, even when I am with my children, to pick up behind them everywhere that I am. And you don't even see this anymore. It's like, well, I'm kind of paying for the privilege of you to babysit my children while I'm here. No, you're paying for the privilege of your children to eat in a restaurant. You should teach them restaurant manners. And there is a way to go about that. I wouldn't recommend my mom's style of parenting. We were always well-behaved in restaurants. Actually, my mom could take us to restaurants when we were 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 because she did the old school parenting. She pinched the back of our arms. And she would whisper in our ears that she was going to kill us when we got home if we didn't stop that behavior. And that was pretty sobering. We kind of sobered up right away. And we looked forward. And we recognized. And we were scared. When we got home, we were going to be annihilated by our own parents. You don't have to go that far. But you should parent your children. I don't think that's a tall glass to order. Everywhere you go and your kids are going to learn, principals are going to learn what is respectable. And it's very much, for me, team restaurant on this. Parents, parents, don't expect everybody else to do it for you. And that's all I have to say about that. The Bible is the root of wisdom, inspiration, and spiritual nourishment.

Now I'm going to remind you about who she is and why we covered her on the show a while ago, leaning, making an assessment rather, on her relationship. Kiki Palmer, many months ago, went to an Usher concert and she was wearing some very revealing outfit and she was dancing and singing with Usher, grinding on him. And what ended up happening was Darius Jackson issued a tweet talking about how inappropriate it is and how when men have standards, society basically tells them that they're jealous. And I very much sided with him on this perspective. And the internet very much came to Kiki Palmer's side and just called him a jealous and a small man for not appreciating her freedom, so to speak, that women just should be able to behave as they want to in public. Here is the thing. Two things can be true at once. It can definitely be true. What I said is that women should have some respect for their relationships and what Darius Jackson was saying at that time was valid. It still is valid. But what has now been brought forth in Kiki Palmer's filings are surveillance camera images of her ex Darius Jackson beating her at her home. Palmer has accused Jackson of abusing her as recently as November 5th, stating that she has security footage to back up her claims that he trespassed into her home without her knowledge or her consent and threatened her before lunging for her neck, striking her and throwing her over the couch and stealing her phone. So just to put context, obviously their relationship was not good at the time when he originally had tweeted about her having no respect for herself, especially as a young mom. And it has only further disintegrated as these things tend to do when you are in the middle of a divorce or a separation. So it sounds like they were living separately. He, according to her at least, appeared at her home without authorization and put his hands on her. And these are just some of the stills of what she is filing in the court system. I'm sure she has the full video. You can see that he is behind her. It looks like he is trying to force her in a certain direction against her will. The next image is a little more telling. You can see that he is definitely on top of her. He has his hand in the air and she is bracing as she falls over a couch and she puts her hands up in what I would describe as a very defenseless position. Now, I know because we have very much teetered into this debate before that there are going to be people online that say, what happens in someone's home is not something to be discussed publicly, a la the whole Steven Crowder debacle. It is always important to weigh in on things when they stand against your values. And this is something that despite me having agreed with Darius Jackson in the past about how women should present themselves in public, that is positively despicable. Yes, this happened in their own home. Yes, it is now breaking in the public. The media is now being given access to this. And it's important to say that this is wrong, that no woman should ever go through this, that no woman should suffer abuse. It's not that difficult to accept that. How the information was gathered, how it was leaked, I don't know. How her court filings were leaked, I don't know. But it is shocking to see this. It is always an act of cowardice when a man puts his hand on a woman. It is always an act of cowardice. There's never a circumstance where I'm going to look at that and say, well, obviously it's justified. Kiki Palmer is claiming that Darius Jackson was enraged because she allegedly showed a photo of herself, her workout results, at a friend's party. And he was allegedly a very jealous person throughout their entire relationship. In her filings, she states that, quote, the abuse during our relationship was not just physical, but emotional and manipulative. Darius would love a bomb me and make me feel like I was the most important woman in the world, only to get extremely distant and cold over a perceived insult to him. If we were at a party or an event and I spoke with one person too long or looked at someone a certain way, he would storm off enraged, telling me that I was a slut and a whore, accusing me of cheating on him and that I did not love him. Darius had a way of gaslighting me to make me feel like I was doing something wrong, even though I wasn't, she wrote in documents. She also alleged that there have been many instances of physical violence with Jackson, including him hitting her in front of her son. So yes, this has now become an incredibly toxic situation. He's talking about instances of her, him having thrown her on the ground, having grabbed off her glasses, stomped on them, throwing all of her belongings once upon a time on the pavement in the rain, incredibly toxic situation. Uh, and obviously now you can see with these stills that it did rise to the level of some sort of physical altercation. And so this is a situation that should be discussed, not because we are trying to pry into the lives of private people, because it's been brought forth in the public and it's important to state your position on things morally. You know, what are your actual values? And in this circumstance, you have two people that I think clearly did not respect each other, did not understand who each other were, and that allowed the toxicity to seep in. It is never the fault of any person. If they are being abused physically, it is not Kiki Palmer's fault. It is certainly not her fault. If the physical violence is because of what she was wearing or what she showed a picture, these people should not have been matched. And as I said again, it is never acceptable for a man to put his hands on a woman. Only a coward would ever do that. All right, guys, moving on into this unbelievable story, just such a sad story. One of these things that you almost want to be able to go back and watch an individual's life to see how it is that they ended up in this circumstance. And you know, a couple of weeks ago, we covered the little rapper, Lil RT, the nine-year-old who was, you know, rapping about guns and rapping about running from the police and rapping about, you know, having women perform sex acts on him. And I said, this is an abomination because this is obviously going to lead him down a path of death and destruction. And then no sooner did I say that and make that assessment, then I learned about this story of a baby-faced teen. His name is Noah Nay, who has now been sentenced to prison for shooting a five-year-old girl as part of a gang initiation. Guys, look at this kid. I really want you to just take a look at this kid and see how young he is, how much baby fat he still has in his face, and then understand that he is now going to be sentenced as an adult to more than 50 years in prison, again, for shooting a five-year-old girl in the neck as a part of a shocking gang initiation. It's incredible to think of this as happening in our country, that you have young kids that are being introduced to this sort of a street lifestyle. He was convicted, Noah, of all 10 charges against him, including shooting with intent to kill, firearm possession, and drug possession in connection with the April 2022 drive-by shooting in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He had been traveling in a stolen SUV when he opened fire, hitting the five-year-old girl in the neck and the shoulder as she played outside. Thankfully, genuinely thankfully, thank the Lord, this young girl survived after she was rushed to the hospital. The prosecutors are saying that she would have died if the bullet had even hit a spot that was just one inch away. So quite literally, this is divine intervention. It's the only reason that this five-year-old girl is alive. How do we get to a circumstance which a 16-year-old could have this sort of evil inside of him, that he could even think that it would be appropriate to, in a gang initiation, go after a five-year-old, I mean, a kindergartner? It's so incredibly confusing to me that we have arrived in these times and that we have these things that are taking place all across America. We don't talk about them ever. We don't talk about them. What's happening in the inner city communities, the further corrosion of what's happening in these inner city communities, the amount of children that are being killed. And now we have children that are being killed by other children. It is stories like these that further commit me to the belief that a single dollar should be sent overseas to help anyone, anywhere, until we focus on the issues at home, the issues that nobody wants to talk about. The dominating news cycle is always about who we need to be involved with, who we need to be helping overseas. And nobody cares about this story. You're never going to see this sweeping the news. You're never going to look at the number of children that are being killed in inner city communities, the number of children that are dying because of accidental overdoses. It's not something that we talk about here. It's not, because we always need to play police everywhere except for on American soil. Again, a tragic story both ways. This kid obviously deserves to go to prison. I believe that people have been testifying, talking about how he's always been a threat to the larger community, which is why they have decided on these adult charges for him. And his aunt testified, by the way, throughout this trial that her nephew had been neglected his entire life by both his mother and his father, who have been in and out of prison. So yes, it makes sense. That is what happens. We talk routinely on the show about what and who are the spawns of father absence. And in this case, you're talking about also missing that maternal presence as well. And so you could say in many ways he didn't have a chance, but he did something horrific. And now, unfortunately, he is going to be where he should be. All right, guys, moving on from that story. I just have to hammer this because it's the end of the week. Don't be mad at me. You are going to be mad at me. You're always mad at me. I'm trying to bring up Taylor Swift. You're like, stop, leave him alone. She's just a 15-year-old girl. She's not a 15-year-old girl. I am very proud of myself because people didn't understand this. I am the only person that has been raging against the fact that her and I are of the same age and 35-year-old women do not behave this way. And I will be the only person that points this out until you all come back to me when she's 40 and she's behaving like Madonna on Instagram. I'm going to be like, well, the signs were there that things were not right with Taylor Swift because she acts like a child. And nothing frustrates me more than the fact that she plucks up girls like they're Barbie dolls. And she's just collecting them and pretends that they're best friends. And so now, obviously, Taylor has instantly become best friends. It's so easy to become best friends just to meet somebody. And then you're just like a puppy. And you love each other instantly at the age of 34. And you have no questions. And her and Brittany Mahomes are now best friends because Brittany Mahomes, oh, my god, that's so funny. You're dating someone on the team too? Oh, yeah, I'm actually married to the star quarterback, Patrick Mahomes. Let's be best friends. Yeah, sure. Let's make sure we're the paparazzi all the time and show people that we're best friends because we're going to hold hands. Yeah, that's what they're doing. Her and Brittany Mahomes, who just met one blink ago, Taylor, new beau that she's been seeing for a couple of weeks, they are now holding hands everywhere they go. And it's cringe. It should make you cringe. It should make you question why she acts like this. Two 34-year-old women do not hold hands after they just meet. Trust me. How do I know? I'm a 34-year-old woman. Here she is holding Selena Gomez's hand because now she's out in public. And she's in love. And so holding hands is definitely a sign that this is your best friend. I'm telling you guys, this is just not normal behavior for a 35-year-old woman. You don't meet a woman and then instantly hold their hand a couple of weeks later in public. There's just a little bit more of like, who are you? What do I want to know about you? And then even if I absolutely love you, who am I a fan of? I love Rihanna. I get it. People throw things at me. Oh, Rihanna's just like a… I have a thing for Caribbeans, obviously. I'm a little biased because my family is part Caribbean. And I just like Rihanna's vibes. And if Rihanna and me were vibing and then we were like, oh yeah, we like each other. We're Caribbean. I wouldn't be like, let's hold hands in public. You would think it was weird if Rihanna and me were holding hands. But for some reason in your head, you're going, I don't know, Taylor Swift. I just kind of let her do that because she has convinced the world that she's 15. And two 15-year-old girls holding hands, by the way, totally appropriate. Barely appropriate, but totally appropriate. Preborn is the largest provider of free ultrasounds in the United States. They connect with women who are considering abortion and offer them a free ultrasound so that they can hear their child's heartbeat. This divine connection has proven to double the probability that a mother will choose to carry her child to term. Hi, I'm Aisha and I just wanted to share my journey with how the clinic has helped me come along this way. I just moved to LA to pursue a career. I found myself going through an unplanned pregnancy. I was debating whether or not I was even pregnant. So I did an online search and I found the clinic and for sure I was doing this. I made the appointment, showed up to my appointment. I spoke to one of the counselors and took a test. While I was waiting, they talked to me about different pregnancy choices and different options and information that helped me be more educated. The test is positive. To confirm, I got an ultrasound of the pregnancy test and it was for sure positive and I got to hear and see my baby for the first time. Hearing the heartbeat made me cry and it was certain that I was going to keep my baby forever. And from time to time, I still go to the clinic to get additional services like baby clothes and diapers and other things and I've had so much support from everyone, the staff, the volunteers. I now see my daughter and I cannot imagine my life without my happy, lovely, joyful, smart baby and I'm so grateful. Every day, Preborn's network of clinics saves 200 babies lives but doesn't stop there. They offer mothers maternity clothes, doctor visits, and the support that they'll need to raise a child after giving birth. This is an incredible organization that I am very proud to stand behind. You can support Preborn with a gift of just $28. This will cover the cost of one free ultrasound and it could save a life of an unborn child. To donate, just dial pound 250 and say the keyword baby. That's pound 250 baby or donate securely at preborn.com slash candice. That's preborn.com slash candice. All right guys, it's time to read some of your comments regarding episodes past. First couple of comments regarding the GOP debate and me finally having endorsed someone, Nikki Haley, the president of Israel. That's where she belongs. Happy Hermit says, Nikki Haley just disintegrated before my eyes on that one. Stupidly emotional reaction to a morally neutral observation from Vivek. Her daughter is on TikTok. She could have just said her daughter is an adult and she can't control her app usage. She reacted like he accused her daughter of being on OnlyFans. Yeah, it was a really bizarre reaction. Very strong and way too emotional. I think she said, keep my daughter's name out of your voice. I don't know if that makes sense. I think she's got to hit up Will Smith because I don't keep my name out. Your voice doesn't even make sense. Neither does your heels being ammunition. Anyways, Amy Lowe says, Candace, this has come to be one of your best monologues in a long time. Although you kick ass all the time, this is even better. You know, I must not be the only one who notices that all American presidential candidates grovel and compete to convince you that they love Israel the most. It's just so pathetic. In addition, there is always the mention of anti-Semitism, but I never hear any mention of anti-Gentilism. No one ethnicity has a monopoly on discrimination. Couldn't agree more. I've told you I'm done with it. I don't care. Call me an isometic all the time. I have always been America first. It would offend you only sometimes when it was regarding Israel. It's because you're an idiot. That's the truth. Okay? So take that clip and circulate it on the internet. Leon writes, that debate, we all saw a different side of Vivek that has never been seen. He just had no patience for anyone that was calm and coordinated. He was the Oprah Winfrey of spanking that night. You get a spanking. You get a spanking. You get a spanking. Everybody gets a spanking. It was glorious. Yeah, he seemed really confident, really in control, and kind of in a weird way spanked them politely, which was also quite endearing. And I did very much enjoy him. I have always enjoyed Vivek, but I think that now he's becoming quite polished, and he's really kind of finding his groove. MKAllDay writes, Vivek for my big brother 2024, I swear I've never seen a better debater. He's wholly enthralling and wildly intelligent. I've always said Trump has a fan base, and a lot of Trump supporters vote as fans. Vivek expects a merit vote, and our country should be run on exactly that merit. I seriously love him. Yeah, I think Vivek is definitely playing for 2028, but I'm so glad that he's been introduced to the American public, because I've liked him. He is obviously high-functioning. He's very intelligent, and he's a fighter. He is. He comes out of the cage fighting, which I deeply respect. And I also think that he has allowed some autonomy from the political lobbyists, so to speak, simply because he has his own money. I mean, I think Vivek himself is worth just under $1 billion, so he has that freedom that Trump had to stand up to the establishment and not to kowtow to the establishment, which is something that Nikki Haley can't do. There are people in her pocket. He brought up Boeing. There is no question that she is trying to ingratiate herself amongst the military-industrial complex, because they're enriching her. And so when she's up there saying, let's bomb everything, and my heels are ammunition, even my heels are bombs, there's a reason for that. And that's not because she cares about the American people. It's because she cares about money. And she's going to get it, by the way. She's playing her cards very well. She knows she's not going to win President of the United States. But she will, in fact, win some good contracts and some speaking fees in the long run. Moving on, as a second topic, you guys who saw Lil RT, our nine-year-old illiterate rapper, who has responded to me in a video simply because his parents are forcing him to do that, and his parents should be checked out by CPS. John McNally writes, if this kid doesn't make it big in rap, he'll be an 18-year-old crying and bitching that he's oppressed, when really, the parents are to blame. That is very true. If he does not make it in rap, I can imagine that he will become the kind of person who claims that the world is oppressing him, and the world is doing things to him. And he'll never really be able to understand that his parents set him up for failure. It is sad. It is absolutely sad. And I make no attempt to make fun of him because it's actually something that warrants a further discussion in our society. It is something that we should be observing and talking about and coming up with conclusions about how we fix this and how we've even gotten here. Elaine Frazier writes, I'm a preschool teacher, and unfortunately, this is not an isolated situation. It's so sad to say, but even at three and four years old, we can generally foresee how a child's future will turn out and what kind of person they'll become based on how they are being parented. I honestly believe that expectant parents should go through some trading and earn the right to be parents. Lazy, dumb, feckless, and selfish. Selfish are not qualities needed for raising kids. Ah, which brings us back to the beginning. Parent your children. Restaurants, on the streets, at home, parent them. They are meant to be parented, not raised to be lazy, dumb, and feckless, as Elaine Frazier has stated. All right, ladies and gentlemen, that unfortunately is all the time that we have for today, all the time that we have for this week. People are placing bets that I might give birth over the weekend. I don't know. Maybe. Maybe I will. Maybe I won't. I think I won't. Some people say I will. So I don't know if I'm going to see you on Monday. I really don't know. I hope I see you on Monday. And if I do see you on Monday, I will be glad. See you guys then.
