“Beyoncé, she was very shy,” Tina explained. “She got bullied a bit... The day that she stood up for someone…she didn’t stand up for herself, she stood up for them.”
“I’m getting emotional talking about it. I couldn’t have been more proud of her.”
Tina also shed some light on Solange's childhood, revealing that Beyoncé's equally legendary sister was "always an activist" and would ask people to sign petitions from a young age.
She also dished on Beyoncé's childhood friend and Destiny's Child bandmate Kelly Rowland. “Kelly was always this kid that tried to protect everybody,” she recalled.
Tina shared the clip on IG and wrote in the caption, "Each child is different! But all so special. I believe kids are born with their personalities. My three girls All handled things very differently. Learn their personalities and respect the individuality."
"Never compare the negatives, always praise the positive differences and pay attention to the things that you can brag on about them. They love it and it encourages positive behavior."
There you have it!
