Karina's mother explained, "I raised her fairly easily because she was such a nice kid." Jason confided in Karina's mother and shared, "I thought my son was docile but it's still hard." Karina's mother responded, "But, he'll grow up well."

She went on to share a short anecdote about Karina and what she told her mother as a child. Karina's mother elaborated, "When Karina was young, she told me something. She said 'I can grow up well just as much as you believe in me'." 

Jason, as well as fans and netizens, were touched by what Karina said as a baby. And netizens commented, "Karina is the real deal the more you get to know her," "How does a baby say that? she's so sweet," "Her mother seems to believe in her a lot," "This is so touching," and "I didn't have interest in Karina before but I saw a few YouTube shorts of her and she seems to have a really down to earth personality. So I started liking her."
