- I am a divorced woman.

Now we can plan the future.

I am turning 30 this year with a baby.

Like the time is now.

At the same time, I would rather be married.

- There was some issues with the kids picking on Kloie,

so me and Sean thought it would be a good idea

to just do homeschooling.

So you take ten of these blocks.

- Okay, so we're not doing what I was doing?

- This is just gonna be easier.

- I'll just go in another room then.

- We don't need two people barking at her.

- I'll just go in the other room.

- I just feel like it's overwhelming for her.

- Well, it's not. If you wouldn't--if you would

just let me talk instead of cutting me off

and saying you got it.

Homeschool is not for the weak-hearted.

- Yeah, that's why most kids go to school.

- See, it's a tent.

- It's a tent. - Tent.

- Tent. - Sorry, it's a tent.

- I feel like Vaeda hasn't really

been talking clearly yet.

- And you've noticed that she's always been kind

of speech-delayed with articulation and enunciation

and things like that.

We're gonna get a hearing test today.

- Okay. - Because we wanna make sure.

- So I'm just gonna play sounds for her

through the speakers. - Okay.

- Yay!

- So, okay.

So the good news is her hearing is perfect.

Her speech and with all of her behavioral development,

I'm gonna give you guys into some good speech therapists.

- Okay.

- Are you thinking about doing speech therapy?

- I don't know. What do you think?

- We're kind of just-- - I don't know.

I would just wait.

- I don't know if you've heard or not,

but, you know, of course, me and David, we've separated.

How do you feel about moving?

I think it would be really, really good

for all of us, you know. - Okay.

- You know, my manager friend, August?

He was the only friend David would let me talk to weirdly.

- [bleep] does he live?

- Las Vegas. - Okay.

- I'm gonna look at places here.

I'm gonna look at places there.

- Wow. - I'm gonna decide which--

where I wanna go.

I was thinking, you know, if I did go to Vegas,

I could start my own marijuana business.

- Yeah, that's really big out there.

- Yeah.

- What's in there?

- The medication I paid for, Briana, help yourself.

- What is that?

- It's a narcotic.

It's methadone.

- We're on drugs?

- I found a woman's center that deals with trauma.

I think I'm gonna go over there.

Do you know a time frame of how long you're gonna be there?

Six weeks?

- You know, Kloie's probably like,

I'm sick of being around you guys.

- I'm sick of y'all. I'm sick of y'all.

- I need a break. - Yeah, she is.

- Get me with some kids.

- But one of my friends told me about this school.

They said they could get her in this year for kindergarten.

They'll give her, like, an assessment test,

and then they could have her enrolled

within the next couple of weeks.

I feel like teachers, like, I need them to be real with me.

the class is really loud.

- Maybe she's over--

- Yeah.

- It's too loud?

- Friends did.

- The friends are too loud? - Yeah.

- Yeah.

- Does it matter we're the only ones that

can tell what she's saying?

- Hey, ladies.

So I kind of need some mom advice.

Vaeda is five now, and she's

still not speaking that clearly,

and she's definitely uncomfortable

in loud environments.

Her teacher and I have talked,

and they want to get her an IEP,

which is an Individualized Educational Program.

Has anybody else's kids had to get this done?

I'm trying not to make a big deal out of it,

but it's definitely got me a little stressed.

[phone ringing]

- All right.

- Hello. - Can you put it on speaker?

- Hi, how are you?

Yeah, I was told that Vaeda is going

to have an IEP evaluation.

- Yes.

She'll be evaluated at school tomorrow,

and then we'd like to schedule a time to go

over her results with you.

- Um, so--and when you guys do this and she gets, like,

a certain score, does that help you

know if she's a little like--

- Neurodivergent, or?

- Neurodivergent or anything of that nature?

- It does not.

I think you're kind of feeling out for, like, autism.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

- It does not give me a score for any of that stuff, no.

So that would be something that we test for

later on with, like, a psychologist.

- Okay.

- We really don't start looking at that stuff

until it starts impacting her education.

- And yeah, that all sounds good.

And then I'll wait to find out about the IEP meeting,

and then we can kind of go from there.

- Okay. Thank you so much.

Talk to you later. - All right. Bye.

He's a grower in the cannabis space.

And his daughter runs all of the dispensaries

- Cool.

- And so I brought you up just to see if they would be

interested in doing some sort of deal,

because I know you've always wanted your own cannabis line.

- I always wanted to come out with a marijuana brand,

because, you know, I've smoked, you know,

since I've been younger. - Yeah.

- I mean, it helps me medically, mentally.

- What I'd like to do is introduce you to Adriana

hopefully this week, because you're here.

Meet in person, and see if you're feeling it.

Cool? - Yeah, let's do it.

- You should start thinking about the type of products

I want this to be very personable, you know?

Not just a big brand was like, hey, let's use Jenelle.

It's like, no, I actually put effort

I wanna test it out, you know, be completely involved.

I'm just happy that I don't have the obstacle

of David in the way.

So hopefully now that he's not in the picture,

- Hey, guys.

I know I've been a little MIA,

but I did find out that my mom has struggled

with a drug addiction.

I'm trying to process everything.

But Jade, I would love to give you a call,

and maybe you can give me some advice.

[line trills]

- Hi, beauty queen.

- Hi.

- What are you up to?

- I'm at work.

- So I wanted to call you because I need some advice.

My mom went to a rehab center.

She has-- - Okay. For what?

- I guess, back in the day, she was addicted

to heroin for a long time.

- Like real heroin or like opiate?

- Heroin.

And she got on methadone.

- Okay. - And--

- Like, she's been on methadone--

like this was recently?

- I found out from my grandmother

that she's been on and off of methadone

since she was pregnant with Brittany.

Brittany's 32 years old.

- So wait, so she just never told anybody?

- My whole family knew, my grandmother and all my aunts,

but they didn't tell us. - [bleep].

- It's just, like, so shocking to me.

Like, I'm--like, it's killing me on the inside,

and I feel like I'm going into this really dark place.

And I don't wanna do that, especially around the kids.

- There's all these different emotions that you go through,

and then you start thinking, like,

you're [bleep] crazy or something.

So I feel like having other people makes you

feel like you're sane.

You should try Al-anon.

- I think I need it.

I think I need to do something for myself.

- Yeah, I think it'll help.

Start with Al-anon and, you know,

learn how to start with, like, accepting

and moving from there.

Like just taking it one step at a time,

really, because that's all you--that's all you can do.

- [vocalizing]

- Ooh!

I forgot how pretty the beach was.

It's been so long.

So Khesanio's mom is coming into town,

and I have met her before when Khesanio took me

to Jamaica to meet her.

But the kids have not met her.

So she's coming to stay with us, and I'm a little nervous.

So you guys know that Miss Angie is coming soon, right?

- Uh, yeah, she's coming in, like, two days.

- Yeah.

Are you guys excited? - Yeah.

- This is a special moment for me

because you guys know I love Khes.

And we're two families coming together and meeting,

and this is important for us.

Khes is obviously very important to me,

and his mom is the most important person in his life.

So I'm nervous.

There is still a huge part of me

that, like, wants to impress.

And his mom's name is Angie, and my mom's name is Angie.

It just seems destined to be.

- My mom is very, very, very important to me.

And in Jamaica it's big on respect.

So just make sure you guys are respectful.

You guys keep the place clean.

- And her coming here, she's meeting my kids.

So I'm hoping that they will behave.

These are not Khesanio's biological kids,

and she is gonna see him, like, being

a father to these three kids.

You know, I don't really know--

[sighs] Her thoughts.

that she gets overwhelmed?

- Honey, she's only five, okay?

She literally just turned five.

I just didn't wanna cry in front of all these people.

- You don't wanna cry. I guess--

- Honey, don't feel bad for her.

She is fine.

She's okay.

- Yes, I do.

- Did I leave my stupid phone in there?

- No, it's right there.

But I'm saying all kids have strengths and weaknesses.

I think you need to look at it more like

what her strengths versus her weaknesses--

weigh it on the scale.

And she's--her numbers went zoom.

I mean, you see that graph?

- No, I know she's succeeding. I just feel bad.

I just don't want her to struggle.

- So you're worried about, what,

her emotional being overwhelmed or being over, over--

- And she doesn't like, changes and--

- Okay.

I think that's pretty normal.

Humans hate change.

We hate--all of us hate change.

It's natural.

Baby, she's--she's fine.

As far as it's not affecting her learning.

I think this right here--look, she's much more than others.

She's more alert and active in a learning environment

when compared to other students.

- I don't know, it just makes me emotional.

- I think that's normal, honey. You're a mom who cares.

- I just want her to succeed and do great.

- Well, according to her, she's exceeding.

- Yeah, you're right. - So.

- Yeah, because she is progressing.

- A lot.

- It's just more of the sensory stuff.

She has to remove herself or she needs

to stand to do things. - Which is totally okay.

I'm proud of her that she does it on her own.

Do you know how important that is

for a five-year-old girl who just turned five

to regulate herself?

Adults can't even regulate them damn selves.

I wonder how better I would have been as a kid

if someone did what we were doing.

Because when I was younger, it was--

I was just--they just threw it up and said

I just was a behavior problem. - Yeah.

And I'm hoping if I create like a cozy corner or something,

it'll help her with the meltdowns at home.

We met up at Vaeda's school,

and we met up with her speech therapist, the principal,

her teacher, and then another lady

who does, like, evaluations for sensory issues.

We did find out that Vaeda struggles

with like loud noises, wanting to move or fidget.

For Vaeda, it comes out in, like, yelling

and getting angry or crying.

But she is also, like, exceeding everything in class.

And at first, it was very overwhelming.

Like, oh, my gosh, she's gonna struggle.

Now, we're just gonna have to help her as best as we can

and learn about it.

- I'm telling you, she's gonna be fine.

- Yeah.

- She is fine.

we're the only Black-owned dispensaries.

So I started about seven years ago with my family.

My brother is our head cultivator.

I run the operations and the dispensary.

And I also own a cannabis consumption lounge.

We have a room where we get hotbox.

And we give out tons of samples.

- That's so funny.

- We do comedy nights.

We do live music.

We do paint sessions.

So anything you can think of-- - That's cool.

- That would be fun to do with cannabis,

we do it at the café.

So we have a few other celebrity

brands that we work with.

Just recently, we launched Emma & Clyde, which

is Whoopi Goldberg's brand.

And then we are launching Gary Payton.

Our license is fully integrated,

so we have the cultivation, the distribution,

and the dispensary.

So what's great is we have the storefront no matter what

for all of our brands.

So what makes you want to start this and be a part

of the cannabis community too?

- So basically, you know, a long time ago

when I was on "16 and Pregnant," "Teen Mom,"

it was me and my mom arguing.

And I was like, it's about this time of the day.

I want to smoke.

And that just, you know, resonated with everybody.

I have not smoked all day.

I'm about to flip the [bleep] out.

- Smoke what? - Weed.

What do you think?

- Do you need drug rehab?

- No, not really.

I like to smoke about this time of the day.

That one scene, I thought to myself,

I need to do something with this relating to weed.

And I thought the best thing would be to start a brand

called This Time of the Day.

- I think it's a great idea.

- I think my history is gonna have

a lot to do with this brand.

And then I was thinking, like, moms are shamed for smoking.

- Oh, yeah.

There's a lot of women who use cannabis

to help with a lot of problems like menstrual and above.

What do you think of also doing like a spin off

and do Time of the Month?

You have Time of the Day.

You have Time of the Month, something to--

- Yeah, that would be awesome.

- You know, I feel like I grew up watching you as well.

maybe like a pre-rolled pack and then

just expand from there. - That's a great idea.

drive to pursue a career now.

- Hello. - Hi. May I speak with Jade?

- Yeah, this is her.

- I'm calling from the [bleep] school with the results

of Kloie's assessment.

I wanted to share the good news that Kloie

passed with flying colors.

- Awesome.

Nice.

Any parent that has, you know, sent a kid

to school that watched their kid be miserable,

it's a terrible feeling.

You wanna do anything in the world to make sure

that your kid is happy and feels safe, feels like they're

at a place that they belong.

We really made the right decision

deciding to homeschool her.

And I really think that me and Sean are really good teammates

throughout life and parenting.

Everything's going pretty smooth.

give us a timeline like every, what, 60 days,

For me, like, when I think about an addict

I think I need to educate myself a little bit more

Today was a lot.

I feel like it kind of instilled something in me like,
