Alexia's World: My Mother Is Nuts!

Alexia gives a comical perspective of her life being raised by her black, single mother. Culturally, black mothers have a unique way of expressing themselves. Alexia's mom is no different. Her unusual and no-nonsense approach to discipline often leaves Alexia wondering what just happened. She instills discipline and respect through tough love and what can be perceived as humor, though not intended to be. As Alexia tells it, everyone knows she has a crazy Jamaican mother.
