TV personality Emily B chatted exclusively with TheYBF.com about navigating motherhood (and her new clothing line) while being a reality star…just in time for Mother’s Day.  You might say she’s inadvertently teaching her daughter some sketchy things about self respect as it relates to relationships with men…but Emily has a different take.

Get her nuggets of wisdom about how she keeps her teen daughter from doing foolish activities on social networks, why she will never fight on TV & what she teaches her kids about relationships…

On how women should carry themselves as an example to their daughters

“There are a lot of women who fight on television and I promised myself that I would never do that.  My advice to women who are put in bad situations in front of their kids is to shut down!  You don’t have to participate in the madness.”

On what she loves most about being a mother

“It’s my motivation, my kids are everything.  I don’t know what I would do without them.  I wake up every morning and take my kids to school and try to remain normal.  I love being a part of their life.  I don’t need anything else but my kids.”

On the hardest part about being a mother

“The hardest thing for me is always thinking that my daughter will make the same mistakes as me.  I got pregnant at 16 and sometimes I’m always comparing her life to mine.  I had to realize that she’s not me.  She’s a different girl and I have to know just because I did it, doesn’t mean she will do it.  I tell her, don’t be like me…..be better than me.”
