“YOU NEED TO BE DISCIPLINED”: Cardi B Takes a Stand as Her “Bad as Hell” Son Wave Refuses to Put Down His Tablet

Cardi B recently shared a parenting moment that struck a chord with fans as she opened up about the challenges of raising her son Wave. Known for her unfiltered honesty, Cardi described her son’s strong-willed personality, saying, *“My son bad as hell, I got proof he bad, even Offset be like damn out of all my kids, he’s bad. I knew it too; that’s why I was scared to have a boy.”* This candid admission gave fans a glimpse into the day-to-day reality of parenting her lively son.

The incident took place when Wave’s attachment to his tablet became a challenge. Cardi, determined to instill discipline, decided to take the device away to encourage him to engage in other activities. However, according to Cardi, Wave’s reaction was surprisingly calm. *“I take his tablet, he don’t care,”* she shared. *“Even if you take it, he’s like alright.”* Her son’s easygoing reaction to losing his tablet only adds to his reputation as the most mischievous of Cardi’s kids.

For Cardi, raising two young children—Kulture and Wave—while balancing her high-profile career isn’t easy. She has always been open about the challenges she faces as a mother, and her approach to handling Wave’s spirited personality resonated with many parents. Despite her fame, Cardi’s daily life is filled with the same challenges that most parents experience, such as setting boundaries around screen time.

The moment highlights a modern-day parenting dilemma: managing kids’ screen time while encouraging them to explore activities away from digital devices. By sharing her experience, Cardi showed her fans that setting boundaries is essential, even when kids react with indifference or resistance.

As she juggles her career and motherhood, Cardi’s approach is inspiring for many parents who want to balance discipline with understanding. In her own words, Wave may be “bad as hell,” but Cardi is clearly committed to guiding him with love and structure—one tablet at a time.
