The gut-wrenching reality of school violence hits home in our latest discussion, where we tackle the alarming incident involving an 18-year-old student's assault on a teacher aide. Our society's response, or lack thereof, to such incidents begs the question: What are we teaching our youth about consequences and compassion? It's not just about the unnerving statistics; it's the personal stories behind them that truly resonate. As we sift through the details of this case and its implications for school safety, we're reminded of the vital role of empathy and action in our communities.

When Abby Lee Miller reached out with words of admiration for our daughter Faith, it underscored the disparate worlds of entertainment and personal struggle with health adversities. Abby's interest in joining us on the podcast promises to bring her unique perspective on resilience and fortitude, something our family knows intimately as we navigate Faith's healing journey. In a warm blend of personal reflection and encouragement, this episode promises both the light-hearted family anecdotes you love and the inspiring stories that fuel our collective hope.

Finishing off with a dash of humor and nostalgia, we engage in a hearty debate over James Bond actors and our quirky attempts to remember all the faces behind the iconic 007. From taco nights to TikTok ventures and the endearing quirks of a 25-year marriage, we serve up a conversation that's as varied as it is vibrant. So pull up a chair, maybe grab a taco, and let's share in this tapestry of sobering reflections, family life, and the lighter side of things. Abby Lee Miller's anticipated presence only heightens the promise of an engaging listen.

Speaker 1:

I don't want to hear it.

Speaker 2:

Good evening, welcome to another. A Contagious Smell, unstoppable. I am Victoria, with my husband Michael, who always says I don't know what to talk about. I don't know what to talk about. Yet here he is to talk with his wife. So what's happening?

Speaker 1:

This is your show, woman. It's not my show, it's our show. You start this off. You want to talk about what's going on right now in court?

Speaker 2:

okay, let's talk about this. So there is a student who is is he 18? He's 18. Right, who attacked his teacher or a teacher aid for taking away his Nintendo Switch and literally right hooked this teacher aid and teacher goes out on the ground unconscious. I've seen the video, michael's seen the video, and several people just walk by when this is happening. What is your take on this? That's it. Well, I wanted to see what you had to say, since you're fidgeting and looking at everything I wasn't thinking about um.

Speaker 1:

So yes, it's. It's horrible that you've got um 6'6" 270-pound kid whooping on anyone right, because you're going to outweigh and you're… that's a big boy. Yes, I'm 6'1" and I'm 270. I drink a lot of beer y'all, oh my God, but this kid was massive compared to that female right. And that right hook, clearly, clearly, you know, even though the camera blurs her face you could tell he hooked her because, she immediately went out.

Speaker 1:

He didn't push her to the ground, her head didn't strike the ground and then she became unconscious. He walloped her and she was out. Good thing, because she didn't feel all the brutality that he's missed.

Speaker 2:

Feel it when she wakes up, I promise you, and uh, I'm glad she's.

Speaker 1:

She's doing better. Still said that she's still not okay. But you know, here here's this, this big hoss of a kid. Whether or not he's uh, mentally challenged in special education or is just a normal student, that doesn't matter at this point. We have, and what got me? The very first thing that I saw was this white man in what appeared to be a uniform, and I hesitate to say Marine, but it was khaki, brown and color bridges with a stripe down the outside of the leg with an ID badge on it, and that's indicative of Marines or some type of JROTC. Several comments mentioned that you know Postman was a Marine or JROTC in the high school. Was a Marine or JROTC in the high school?

Speaker 1:

how nonchalantly and casually he assessed the situation while, on his cell phone, approached the situation and continued, to non-emergency fashion, move at a leisurely wall to attempt to break up the fight or the beating. And it is so atrocious that A a man would do that right that he wouldn't go in defense of another human being ASAP. I mean, just go Drop everything.

Speaker 2:

Not everybody's going to do that. Not everybody drops to assist.

Speaker 1:

Now that brings drops to a CIS. Okay, Now that brings me to the second thing.

Speaker 2:

If he was in.

Speaker 1:

JROTC or a Marine at some surmise, then he has training, he has special training, he has a special mindset. Hell, he even has first aid CPR from AED under his belt so he can render aid after everything's over, and that apparently didn't happen at the end of the video. But if you're any type of military or law enforcement, you have a call to action. You, you jump, you go what about the military?

Speaker 2:

who causes the action?

Speaker 1:

well, this was a kid. We're not talking about the military right now, we're talking about his response Lacked much to be desired. Marines, I'm not hating on y'all. I was Air Force. I'm not hating on my military Well that's not going up. If this was the case and he was, there needs to be some consequences on his end.

Speaker 1:

So that's the second thing that got me First is the size of the kid after he waylaid the female, and then the response of just that one gentleman. That one guy could have cut down the brutality by at least half had he ran and tackled the boy Got him out and away from her.

Speaker 2:

Now the mom of this 18 year old is begging the court for leniency because she says he can't handle being incarcerated. And now, correct me if I'm wrong, but I read that they are going to sue the school for this kid getting that irate he felt the need to have to get physical with the teacher. They're going to sue the school over it. So that's what is so ironic to me is that they're going to go back and school and sue the school. I want to make sure I get this correct by we are teacherscom. Do you know that in school, 90,000 kids are hospitalized for intentional injuries that happen on the school grounds every year? Let that sink in. 90,000 students are hospitalized for intentional injuries that happen on school grounds every year and this is from weareteacherscom. And they're saying that there are abrasions, lacerations, fractures, brain injuries, sprains and unknown. 68% are males, 32% are females, with the average ages starting between five and nine years of age.

Speaker 1:

Okay, wait a minute. There's a question here. Okay, Okay A. Who are the injuries from? Okay Okay.

Speaker 2:

A. Who are the?

Speaker 1:

injuries from, because it's saying are they from teachers, students or self-inflicted? I mean come on, it says intentional injuries, fractures.

Speaker 2:

That happens while at school? Who? Fractures their own self I'm talking about while at school.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, on school grounds.

Speaker 2:

So either this is from students or teachers, but those numbers are just crazy. An abrasion.

Speaker 1:

I understand. The kid walks up the stairs, trips, falls. Now he's got an abrasion and a sprain. Okay, maybe he has a compound fracture. Okay, that's understandable. Okay, is that intentional? No, was he skateboarding at the time? Yes, now Is that intentional? No, was he skateboarding at the time? Yes, now is that intentional? Yes.

Speaker 2:

And if you scroll down a little further they have another little photograph, if you will, that says rounded percentages are based on 700 media accounts of violent incidences that transpired in schools. Single events targeted one or two individuals that claimed three quarters of lives lost in school incidences. Most assailants 75% were students. Guns were involved in more than two-thirds of deaths in a single event. Single event. That's crazy, that's so crazy. I mean that's just crazy. This is school, it's school violence. Sorry, they're actually saying and I was trying to get a number before the show but they were too diverse before I could get an average number but the number of violent acts are on the rise, the most in elementary schools.

Speaker 2:

So, you know I understand about self-preservation.

Speaker 1:

Okay, folks don't want to get involved in a fight. They don't want to get hurt, you know, any type of injury. I understand that my wife and I don't carry it. If something were to happen, we're going to first, a put our child safely on the ground behind a barricade or something, and then we're both going to draw down because we're going to prepare and we're going to plan for the worst. Okay, I just don't. I fail to understand why you had all those individuals um, you know teachers and I saw a student in the background why they didn't have the proper training to restrain an individual. Okay, you've got, I believe, a total of 18 people on the scene at some point. Okay, if you have at least three people, right, let's put one teacher on each arm at least and interlock their arms with them right.

Speaker 1:

That's right. That's all you need. Okay, Hands kill people. Was he kicking her? Yes, he was kicking her.

Speaker 2:

Okay, have the biggest, fattest drag him away, like literally just move him Right, sue him away. Well then they'd sue him even more for child abuse. But I'm saying to deescalate the situation, interlock their arms and at least move him, move his physical person away from this individual on the ground.

Speaker 1:

We don't send our kids to school to get beat. We don't send our teachers, our, our wives, our daughters to school to get beat okay very true, I just.

Speaker 2:

This is why I believe teachers should not have the authority to pat kids, which we talked about last time. I just, I just don't, I don't think anybody should have the right to do it.

Speaker 1:

So in this aspect, as it probably will get worse because we see school shootings all the time. These elementary kids are packing so many guns and barcels and manifestos 125-page manifestos.

Speaker 2:

And still coming to school getting inside the school with them. Yeah to manifesto. Still coming to school.

Speaker 1:

Getting inside the school with them? Are we going to go to 100% stay-at-home Zoom, whatever vibe online? Do you see that coming?

Speaker 2:

Possibly the number of homeschools are getting bigger and bigger. Probably yeah. I don't allow faith to go to public school because of all of this I just watched several videos of students hitting the teachers and even some teachers hitting students.

Speaker 2:

It goes both ways well, yes, it does definitely go both ways. But when Faith was in elementary, the high school had a mass incident and they locked down the elementary school because the suspect was on the loose and was on the grounds. That's no, no, no, no, not okay. These are not things that we had to worry about when we were in school. We never had to worry about this stuff ever. That was nothing we had to be aware of, and that's not what we should have to be concerned with.

Speaker 1:

So here's a part of something you didn't know. I'm sharing this on air. As a kid growing up, I was a little chunky.

Speaker 2:

I knew this, but I didn't think you were chunky. I was chunky. I saw so many pictures.

Speaker 1:

I got bullied a lot in middle school A lot, and particularly by this one kid. He was a big old, hefty.

Speaker 2:

And you got picked on. But he was a big, hefty boy.

Speaker 1:

Yes, he was like a Shoney's, wasn't it?

Speaker 2:

Shoney's boy. Shoney's boy.

Speaker 1:

But anyway, he bullied me, he bullied other kids and one day I stood up to him. One day I fought back and stood up to them. We got in a fight, we became friends.

Speaker 2:

Then my dumb ass Is this going where I think it's going took on his mannerism and I became a bully. Yes, Is it who? I think it is.

Speaker 1:

No, but yeah.

Speaker 2:

Is it who? I think it is.

Speaker 1:

No, I have no idea what you're talking about. You're no, no, anyway, anyway.

Speaker 2:

I can't see you as a bully.

Speaker 1:

I don't know.

Speaker 2:

It's kind of like you know, everybody told me you are a cop. Oh my God, you're so intimidating and I'm like who? And they'd say you. And I'm like you have an Asian cop named you Because I know you're talking about him. Like everybody was so intimidated by you and I resist, you know.

Speaker 1:

No, I'm a big softie. My daughter will tell you that. No, your daughter, no, our special daughter, who is in the bedroom right now, probably watching one of those stupid youtube videos about ghost honkies?

Speaker 2:

well, let's go and take this to left side for a second. So while we're having dinner and did I? Cook y'all, oh my god, it was out of a box. That doesn't constitute cooking, that's called defrosting. So my husband defrosts these tacos that faith came across and learned about at costco that she thought were amazing and she wanted to have taco night with dad. Um, so they're eating their tacos and faith and dad are talking and whatever, and dad is telling us about his tiktok page. What's the name of your tiktok page?

Speaker 1:

well, it's a, it's a tiktok shop I'm setting up what's the name of it shop.

Speaker 2:

How would somebody find it? I?

Speaker 1:

would? I would come up on their for you page for the tiktok, or they just look at my name so they have to search your name yes, we'll plug it later anyway.

Speaker 2:

So we're talking about dad's tiktok shop and I get a message on my phone from nobody other than abby lee miller, who I'm not like. You didn't say that. Abby lee miller now hold on a minute. First and foremost, anybody who's ever had any kind of dance training or dance experience or somebody loves to watch binge TV shows, whatever knows who Abby Lee Miller is. Jojo came from her training and JoJo is a proud, like amazing young woman who trained with Abby Lee and she, jojo was on Dancing with the Stars and a bunch of other things and JoJo has come out as a lesbian and she is an amazing young lady. I just think the world of JoJo. So anyway, siwa, jojo's Siwa, anyway, she was always when she was on Abby's show she had these big, cute bows in her hair, but anyway she was don't call her Abby Gilleton, abby Lee Miller, it's Abby Lee Miller.

Speaker 2:

So so many times when Faith and I would be in the hospital and we're up all night because we all know you don't get to rest in the hospital we would watch reruns of Dance Moms or Abby's Ultimate Dance Competition or you know whatever, and we always saw like the pyramid they would do and they would learn these new routines and and Abby was a force to be reckoned with, right. And then there's the moms, right, the drama moms, and she had so many seasons of success, abby Lee. And then, bless her heart, she had a really rough patch, like I was so upset for her when her dog passed away and her mom was very sick and Abby ended up becoming incarcerated for something that's behind her and she's overcome it and good for her. And she got very sick and now, without telling her whole story, because it's hers to be inspired by, she is up and moving and amazing and inspiration, to say the least. And she had sent this message video over talking about how amazing faith is and that she put faith on the top of the pyramid and she wants to come on and have faith.

Speaker 2:

Interview her and I was dumbfounded because I think that this woman's story of strength needs to be out there and and it's amazing and inspiring. And you know it's hilarious because people just have this mentality that you don't screw with abby lee because she will snap worship in service so quick. It's not funny, okay. But I loved watching her because the controversy around her and you know, even other people loved her or hated to love her or love to hate her, you know, and everything she's overcome. You can't help but be in a corner, you know.

Speaker 2:

And then you watch them tour and get on the tour bus and the drama of all the moms and I would sit there and think, oh my god, I don't know if I could ride a bus for four, six, eight hours every week with like eight drama moms who are all just itching to get their kid on that front line, you know. And there's Abby in there going oh my god, you know on the bus every week and it's hilarious. Anyway, I'm so inspired by her. I can't wait to have her full-on chase uh podcast. I don't know if Lola will be on there with her for this one or not, but she is such an inspiration. She looked amazing in the video. She looked absolutely amazing. I know that she's no longer in her wheelchair, which I can't wait to get her story behind, and I'm so just in awe of that.

Speaker 1:

That's very inspiring.

Speaker 2:

Because she kept fighting and she fought, and she fought, and she fought.

Speaker 1:

And my hat's off to her for that one.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, because she, you know, went from everything to nothing and back up again. Good for her, like good for her, and she looks fantastic. I mean, you know, I can only see her from the waist up in the video, but she's, she's a beautiful, inspiring person that I can't wait to tell the story now that I've kind of way off in my field, um, but that was super exciting so that I hope will get scheduled here in the near future. And what else? Uh, faith has a couple of appointments this week, so we will go get a CAT scan done and then we will go back to the surgeon to see what all's going on there. She's starting to get her appetite back.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, those y'all keep following faith. Her wound is almost completely well according to the doctors, it's healed up, it's all closed.

Speaker 2:

It's almost all closed.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we got a couple little places that still have to scab over. But, yeah, she's looking great, she's getting her weight back up.

Speaker 2:

Little by little, Definitely her attitude, her sass. And if you guys can and you, go to supermomcom, somebody put us out there. I don't know who nominated us, but we've already made the first cut and we are in the top 20. Remaining entries what?

Speaker 1:

website. I think it's Supermom.

Speaker 2:

It's called thesupermomorg and if you go on and look, we are currently in fifth place for this opportunity to be in women's world magazine and win a trip to palm springs and take home twenty thousand dollars, which would be amazing, because, first of all, we haven't been on a vacation since before faith was born, except to do her Make-A-Wish, and that was the only time we've ever been anywhere. Then you have four days left. We are already in the top, we are in the left over last 20 contestants. And it is for Children's Miracle Network, and I think that's how we got in there is because Faith was a finalist for Children's Miracle Network several years ago and the $20,000 would help tremendously in so many ways because, as you all know, we are still working with special needs families, we're still working with survivors of domestic violence, we're still working with, you know, lots of kids, and it would still help us, you know, with all the offsetting of the costs we hadn't been expecting, you know Michael and I were talking about it is that I haven't.

Speaker 2:

Normally, I think I fill up the gas in my vehicle like every two weeks maybe, and I'm doing it at least at least twice a week right now, if not more, uh, gas, and then you're talking about just parking is like 40 to 50 a week on top of it, and when you have, you know, these three hour round trip appointments and then you have appointments in between you have, you know, these three hour round trip appointments and then you have appointments in between, you know, and you stop to get a quick bite to eat. It's still. It adds up tremendously very quickly, and so part of that would go to helping us with paying that off as well. So, please, it's free to vote. It's amazing and we'd love the opportunity to help other families as well. So that's going on and that is super exciting.

Speaker 1:

I've got a lot of replies back from individuals and even some of my my current customers who have commented about how happy the families are with the puppies that they received from us.

Speaker 2:

That's amazing, it's amazing.

Speaker 2:

How wonderful the puppies are doing in their new environment I did post maybe 10 to 15 pictures of the different puppies with their different new mommies and daddies and families and everybody loved them, everybody. And they're all talking about how happy they are and the dogs are so happy, happy and it's a beautiful thing to see. But it's hard because you can't help but not get attached to these beautiful little bundles of love, you know, and then you just feel like, oh, you know they're doing so good for somebody, but then you got it for a moment, or selfish, you're like I really miss them.

Speaker 1:

Every time I come home there's nobody to bark at me and greet me at the fence with a toy, so you know there's a whole. There's a whole.

Speaker 2:

That was funny. You didn't even laugh. That really was funny.

Speaker 1:

Faith would have said it. You know we're focused on our daughter right now and getting her back up at it. We're focused on our dog right now and getting our dog back up. I hope within this year, within half this year, we can get her off the feeding tube.

Speaker 2:

She worked her ass off to get it off. We can get back to about one-tenth. That would be amazing. I mean she worked for 16 years and got rid of that feeding tube and they put it back. And it was the most heart-wrenching thing when we saw her face, when she learned that it was back, and it was like I did all that for nothing. I mean, how do you, how do you look at your child and try to console that? That's quite the challenge.

Speaker 1:

I was just looking at Amazon making delivery for our neighbor's house. Like I was telling my wife earlier, most things are being delivered. So why not do affiliate marketing where you're promoting other people's products? Because that's the way we're doing y'all we sit on our butts at the house or we work from home and we buy everything online, or, you know, we buy most things my wife and I personally don't go to, and I'm not mentioning this name, but I'm going to call it Wallfart Wallyworld. Yeah, man, we go there once. Oh, God.

Speaker 1:

I bet I ain't been there in three months.

Speaker 2:

Oh, it's been longer than that since I've been there we love Costco, I'm a Costco fanatic. I love Costco.

Speaker 1:

It's the same thing, but yeah, why not jump on the wagon and start helping sell products? Because that's what we're doing. We're just buying online, right? Hey?

Speaker 2:

Stucco. That's not Stucco, that's Rusty. That's our cover. There's Mama Stucco, hey Uno.

Speaker 2:

Also, we have created a brand new activity book, which is really sweet, and it is for our Moms and Mothers Day. That is two weeks away. I can't believe Mother's Day is two weeks away and we've cut the price 75%, so it's $5.95 right now and it's an activity book that you can do with your little ones, create lifelong memories. I know, with Faith, every time she's drawn, anything like most parents, you know, we keep it as a memento of that year or what have you. And there are so many fun things in this activity book that you get to do with your kids and there's even some really awesome coupons for your kids to give our special moms, to let us have time to ourselves. So these things are amazing.95. You can go to.

Speaker 2:

Let me make sure, if you go to POTA, p-o-d-i-a and put in a contagious smile, it should give you the opportunity to find that plus all the other amazing things that we offer. So you would do podacontagioussmilecom and it would show you all of the options we are doing classes and such other things. So you could learn about all of that there, as well as the new activity book we did for moms and it's also linked on our Facebook. You can also go to our Facebook page, which, if you're on Facebook, it's just a contagious smile and the link for the Mother's Day memory making activity book is there for you just to click on and go right to Awesome. Give us a good share for the week, give us a good thought or memory or whatever A good share.

Speaker 1:

Dads, let me talk to you, dads.

Speaker 2:

Mother's Day is only two weeks away. Get off your rumpets and do something nice for your moms. If you have one, we don't, but if you have one definitely your wife. Flyers what flyers what is a flyer? Say it again flyers, flyers, no flyers.

Speaker 1:

A flyer A flyer. You know things like that Before they're marked up.

Speaker 2:

They mark them up like 300%. Oh my.

Speaker 1:

God, get it early, set it to the side a couple days before.

Speaker 2:

And then surprise her.

Speaker 1:

Are you going to do that? Don't be that guy, like I usually am, that goes into Kroger on his way home from work on Mother's Day.

Speaker 2:

No, because you don't work on Mother's Day ever. It's on Sundays, whatever yeah.

Speaker 1:

So you know that's not a good answer. No, you're supposed to share something Liar. F-c-l-o-w-e-r-s. Is it o or zero?

Speaker 2:

that was oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. So what's the best part of this whole week for you, this week, ben? What's the best part?

Speaker 1:

ben well I took a nap today one it's a slow day for you. Had a beer yesterday, had pizza yesterday Ooh, that's good pizza.

Speaker 2:

Pisha, pisha, pisha. That's not really a good memory.

Speaker 1:

So, basically. I spent time with my family.

Speaker 2:

I sat on my butt at the house and didn't do much.

Speaker 1:

I helped our daughter clean her out of her room, which is still not complete. No, I did get most of it swept and mopped and de-organized, de-organized, de-organized, de-organized.

Speaker 2:

I want to know how many.

Speaker 1:

You're the one with the doctor, not me, so I'm not expected to speak proper English.

Speaker 2:

English. I want to know how many women out there now I understand we support our men and spouse when they have their hobbies or activities, when we build our forever home. And my husband can't wait to go hunting for bambi and he wants to gut it and kill it, obviously, and whatever. And he's like wait till you get the smell of the contents of the stomach. Yada, yada, yada, yada.

Speaker 2:

Now, not everybody agrees with this, that you know. Killing a deer or whatever, it's inhuman, it's cruelty to an animal. People find you know the one side or the other about this. I wonder how many women would be like honey, I support your need for feeling like a man and going out there and hunt and kill and whatever. But how many of you are like listen, go get a portafridge or a little Coleman cooler and take that somewhere else and if you have to do it, you put that meat in that freezer not in my kitchen, not in our home, it stays out. And then get one of those like campfire little what do you call them? Little burner things where you can sit outside and put a little frying pan or whatever on there and then you can like put the meat there, get a couple pieces of bread and schmear that on in there, then you know, by all means, I'll support you a million percent.

Speaker 2:
