She had the chance and money to live with her kids and start new, she even changed the gang from the bloods to the cripts or whatever they are called. The apartment was full of sex toys, etc. That's ridiculous.. There are so many women who pick up the pieces and take good care of their children. Even one's with terrible situations. So there is no excuse.
id: 555730 - Text: THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
1. You shall have no other gods before me ( a made up god in your mind that suites your own image so you can get away with all the sinful things you love to do ) Anything that takes the place of the True Biblical God. You might say my god is loving and he will not send people to hell or he isn't angry with the wicked every day
2. You shall not make any idols ( false gods are anything that has been created that is not the one and Only true living God )
3. You shall not take the Name of the Lord your God in vain ( This is using the name of God or Jesus Christ to replace it with a four letter filth word that is human bowel waste ) Have you ever said OMG? That's blaspheme, so serious it was punishable by death in the old testament. Would you use your Mothers name as a cuss word? Why not? Because you love and respect your mother but you use God's name as a cuss the one that gave you life and gave you your parents
4. Remember the Sabbath and keep it Holy
5. Honor your Father and Mother ( Have you always been obedient to your parents and respected them? If you did not obey their instruction as a child in or out of their presence that is not honoring to them. Im talking about correct instruction not instruction to do wickedness and sin against God
6. You shall not murder
Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.
1 John 3:15 ESV
7. You shall not commit adultery
But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
Matthew 5:28 ESV
8. You shall not steal ( A person that has stolen something is called a thief regardless of the value )
9. You shall not lie ( if a person lies they would be called a liar even if it is a fib or white lie, it is still a lie
10. You shall not covet ( Desired anything that belongs to your neighbor)
(For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it. James 2:10 ESV) God's standard is Moral Perfection, the first definition of Good in the dictionary is Moral Perfection, None of us are good by God's standard we all fall short of the Glory of God, Only God is good alone.
If God was to judge you by these 10 commandments which is God's moral, would you be innocent or guilty? You would be guilty like the rest of us. The wages of sin is death and we have all earned death as a punishment for our wickedness and sin against God, our violations of His Holy law. There is a Day of Judgment coming where all thieves, liars and murders and lawless sinners will be Judged and thrown into Hell the lake of fire.
But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral ( Things like adultery and fornication which is sex before marriage), sorcerers ( mind altering drugs), idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”
Revelation 21:8 NKJV
But there is GOOD NEWS
Although we broke God law, Jesus paid our fine. If you are in court and have a stack of speeding tickets and someone pays your fine, even though you are guilty the Judge can let you go free so he can do legally that which is Just and show mercy at the same time. Jesus paid our fine in his life blood he was obedient even until death on cross. God became a man Jesus Christ of Nazareth and lived a perfect life he willingly gave his life as sacrifice to God the Father to reconcile sinners back to God. He was buried and rose again on the 3rd day.
For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.
2 Corinthians 5:21 NLT
Repent ( turn from sin and have a true brokenness and sorrow over your sin ) and then Trust alone in The Lord Jesus Christ not in your own goodness and God will grant you forgiveness and give you a new heart and His Holy Spirit so that you may delight in Him and that which is right his Holy Word.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.
John 3:16-17 ESV
True repentance doesn't make excuses and blames other for their own sin
id: 555749 - Text: As a mental health professional, this entire "interview" really rubs me the wrong way. From the start, you titled it "prostistute interview" - She is a victim of sex trafficking, which is entirely different from being a prostitute - this poor choice of words is disrespectful. The way you talk to her and handled this situation is not even remotely trauma informed - it's downright irresponsible. This is not an interview, this is you talking at her for 10 minutes straight about how disappointed you are in her while she sits there silent, looking like she's dissociating. It has been only TWO MONTHS since the first interview - almost nobody recovers that fast, ESPECIALLY with that amount of complex trauma, and you're acting surprised and shaming her for something that is rarely possible? If you knew ANYTHING about meth addiction, you'd know that the relapse rate is 40-60% (likely higher) - it's not simple, recovery is RARELY linear. She really opened up in the first interview and told you about how she endured horrific traumas every. damn. day. for YEARS, MOST of her life. Coming out of that and entering a happy, healthy life is TERRIFYING when all you know is trauma and instability. Often victims of trafficking feel that they do not even deserve to be happy because there is so much self-hatred that happens as a result of sexual trauma. She already carries shame, she KNOWS she's making mistakes, but it's evidently extremely difficult for her to escape. You made a mistake by exercising an entire lack of boundaries (you're at her place?? in her bathroom??? looking at her sex toys????) - a HUGE and VERY well known sign of drug relapse is asking for gigantic amounts of money - are you so misinformed that you did not know this? This interview is supposed to be about her but I lose track of the amount of times you are patting yourself on the back for helping someone who desperately needs it, repeatedly making it about you and how much of a savior you are when it's supposed to be about her... that was really strange to me, because as a counselor who works with people who relapse into problem behaviors, not once do I shift the focus to me and how much I'm helping them, because there's no way they have the space to worry about me and any toll helping them may take on me. I'm surprised you expected differently - yes she is an adult and yes it is very important to hold someone accountable, that is part of the treatment/learning process, but ranting at them on camera for 10 minutes and posting it online does NOT fall into that category, that is PUBLIC SHAMING, and shame pushes people deeper into unhealthy habits, there is a ton of evidence to back that up. Imagine her reading comments about how disappointed everyone is - for someone who already carries so much pain and shame, I can only imagine how much of a blow that is to her healing process. Lastly, it was creepy to me how throughout these interviews you've showed a portrait of her and slowwwwwlyy panned down her body - her body has been exploited and abused, and it can be retraumatizing to have your body put on display like that - you clearly don't understand how complex sexual trauma is, how triggers work. You demonstrate through this once again that you are not trauma informed. You've handled this very strangely and irresponsibly. Next time, refer people to an ACTUAL counselor/rehabilitative center, because she deserves professional help from someone who exercises healthy boundaries and understands trauma. Trying to "help" when you are unequipped to do so, as opposed to referring her to someone who can do better, was just selfish and is a gigantic red flag signaling a savior complex within you. She doesn't need to be "saved", she needs to be empowered.
id: 555753 - Text: @clementjohnson4391 Impact always matters far more than intent. They consent to their portrait being shown, but I doubt they have much to do with the odd slow pan-down. That's his choice, and paired with his disrespect, lack of boundaries and entitlement issues, I'd say this is all entirely the opposite of empowering the disenfranchised. Putting yourself on a pedestal and crucifying a sex trafficking victim for relapsing isn't doing anything to change anyone's mind, it actually reinforces negative stereotypes about these individuals and leaves people uninformed of how complex and difficult these situations are, how it's not so simple as to "just leave". In doing this, he exercises the exact opposite of sympathy or compassion. If you're working with trafficking victims, you should know about trauma, otherwise you're going to hurt someone. I'll maintain my stance that this is gross and deeply irresponsible.

Psychosocial support is very important because she has been exploited since she was young, and undoing the pain and rejection in her past needs professional help.
Then she can build her self esteem and know what to make of her life.

id: 556335 - Text: @leslietealdi4995 I think the trauma is maybe way to deep? The woman was raped at 10 and basically sold as sex slave ever since! Raped, beaten, tortured, branded, forced to walk the streets, jail and God knows what else! I think even that would need to be done with extreme care! I can only imagine the ultimate survival mode this human must be in to go through all of that!
