I love how much they’re finding themselves. They’re changing hair colors, and doing fun nails, and growing into the people they should have been long ago.
The look on Jennifer's face when she says "I have my own place, my own car, my own little kitty cat" It touched my heart; she looks absolutely in love with life. God please bless these women and keep them happy and safe.
and a bunny! I smiled so much at that. I have had both those pets. They are the best. I am so happy for her, building a great life from the ashes of the former one. Rising like a phoenix!
Amen to this Amy Leigh! Watching their story is a very good reminder to embrace and appreciate the little things we get to witness and experience each day. Simple baths, fresh air, food... wow.
Jordan's intelligence is actually mind blowing. Although her vocabulary isn't considered "normal" she still manages to articulate herself in a way that leaves you in awe. I just cannot comprehend how someone can know what happened to those kids and still let them be in a similar situation.
@@Rikb1234 ahhh, i get it. I thought you were being weird but clearly it’s me that needs to look in the mirror. haha cheers. & your right. very very sad indeed
Dude the fact that Jordan and 5 of her siblings went on to another abusive foster home after she escaped is mind boggling... And yet here she is, still so brave and so kind. These sisters are inspirational. Stay strong all... There is joy and beauty in this life, and I wish it all for you.
Yet California makes sure that, despite being flooded w illegal immigrants, sees to it , prioritizes to 'rescue " 12 year old girls from their 'abusive" parents to provide mastectomies, against parental objection, if the school manages to convince the girls that they are "transgender:. Yep, California has their priorities straight.
@@maiajanashiasmith - bc California is not making foster care oversight a priority. They have allowed themselves to be overburdened with other priorities, and there are simply not the resources of foster families, the resources for oversight, to prioritize safety of children in foster care. Theynare taking on ever increasing burdens from there continued increased FLOOD of children and adults illegally from other coin tries w no resources or even a penny to their names, who do not know the language, have no education, in need of medical care, and omg the educational needs! ALSO, California chooses to spend the $$ that SHOULD be allocated for the protection of children, to pay for hormonal treatments and mastectomies of 12 year olds whom the school has groomed into thinking they are transgender, and doing so AGAINSTn the will of these children's parents. The young think about it, there is no wonder the needs of American children flall through the cracks. .
@@finallythere100 well I forgot the fact they where in California there is nothing normaly functioning in that state. Oh this is fun fact as well - give a Ukrainian person refugee visa, let them come in and ask them to pay $400 for a job permit, while sending billions to launder gun money and to destroy their contry.
I see a lot of people appreciating Jordan, quite rightly, but I think Jennifer is the one who has suffered the most. Imagine trapped in this situation for 29 years. Jennifer my heart goes out for you !!
They're remarkable young ladies to be sure. Jordan is flipping adorable with how she blurts out information and I think that's why she gets a lot of the attention in the comments. I'm sure Jennifer has added emotions for being through it the longest and also being forced to partake in the abuse by locking her siblings in the cages. It's vile what these "parents" did, but to force one of their children to do it, too . . . well, I hope they get special attention in lock up. Jennifer and Jordan are extraordinary individuals and I appreciate how willing they are to share their stories. Being so free with that information is providing valuable resources to effect reform in areas like homeschooling to protect children in the present and future.
@UCTBF_XYezBnHpIdXD6a_TwQ Well, I think Jordan also has more of a TV personality. Jennifer seems a little more shy, though they both seem like great people.
Probably because she IS actress and model. They both are for this story that really seems made up for entertainment. There are simply way too many holes and inconsistencies. Either way, if it is a true story, let's hope the parents are disciplined in prison 100 fold for what they supposedly did.
The older sister absolutely breaks my heart because you can just see how much more traumatized she is. I really hope they all are able to get the help they truly need and a trusted support system.
Jennifer was so smart to help plan the escape, and the fact that she tried to leave before and left that night too but returned for her siblings is just remarkable! She had such a short time in public school and it wasn't very positive but she really advocated for their freedom and had a great sense of survival and love for her family! She is a beautiful person, inside and out. And Jordan is just so phenomenal! What a sweet, beautiful and courageous young woman!
@@jakeshim8785 I think Jennifer is a true hero. The children were so fortunate to have her as their primary care taker. She tried to protect them and she also is the one who nurtured them and gave them love. You can see how much Jordan loves her and I am sure all of the children loved her. I believe that is what allowed them to survive. She said that her mother was very kind to her when she was very young but then had a nervous breakdown from the father and became mentally impaired. She said it in her impact statement to the court that she saw how her father ruined her mother but she was not going to let him do it to her. She is very strong and a very kind person. She deserves only the best.
I read on wiki that many Turpin kids are homeless , out of school and one was abused in the foster home too. They didn't get any donated money.. the system already failed them.
When Jordan breaks down when she explains that she doesn't understand people telling her "She matters and is loved", you can see Jordan's deep pain and the abused innocent child surface. My heart just dropped and this brought me to tears. 7:05
Also why did the foster parents also abuse them? I mean come on those poor children! Man i hate people that abuse others. They are the poison of this world. Our Parents have a huge impact on our lives .If they are abusive they can make your life so dark and hopeless and it you will be traumatized forever. Thankfully my parents were very loving and caring So i hope and pray that God heals people from the pain and protects them against these people.
Jordan’s ability to articulate after such deprivation is blowing my mind. They are so smart I’m glad they are sharing their positive souls with the world
I’m a teacher and STILL can’t figure out how child services weren’t called for the oldest girl when she attended school. Smelling and wearing totally soiled clothing is a great big red light.
I was in an abusive family growing up, and the signs were obvious. None of the teachers figured it out, so I wouldn't put that much faith in the system.
Jordan wanting to become a motivational speaker is so amazing considering she was terrified to talk to anyone. Her voice is one you can’t forget either
@@jv-ep2tc oh hush, she's can take care of herself while also pursuing her dream. She's been locked away and doing that can be part of the healing process (obviously).
@@zz7073 not really. she is in rough shape. you have to be healthy [healed] and knowledgeable to help others. never put the cart before the horse. do not deny the seriousness of this woman's situation.
@@jv-ep2tc she seems to have healed but either way we wouldn’t know…maybe she has and u don’t see it. What difference would it make though? Genuinely curious.
“I want to be a motivational speaker to help others and stuff. My whole life it’s been so hard for me to understand why, why everything has happened. But if I can use what I went through to make a difference in the world, then I think that can heal me.” For someone who maybe feels she doesn’t have strong verbal skills, she just made such a profound statement. She has a Christlike outlook on pain that is so commendable.
I have an aunt who's a former drug addict. She's a lifecoach and has helped so many people. Jordan would be a fantastic motivational speaker. I'm sure she will help a lot of people.
It is a true testament to faith and the gospel that she never lost her true faith despite the hell her parents put her through. I pray that she will continue to hold fast
Is it me or Has anyone else been binging this story and crying uncontrollably? Jordan is so brave and so sweet and so beautiful. She just melts my heart. I hope and pray for the best life for these girls and their siblings going forward. They deserve so much love.
You are not alone in that. I found myself watching with tears rolling down my face. These brave women saved themselves and their siblings. It’s truly heartbreaking what they went through and inspiring how they didnt let it break THEM. So many people that grow up in similar situations repeat the cycle. My fiancé was actually grew up in a similar way. Not allowed to leave the basement and was only allowed to receive meals at the foot of the stairs. Although this is waaaay extreme. He too made the decision to be a amazing dad and make a change and not let the cycle of abuse continue. God bless that family
Jennifer seems to have a much harder time processing what happened. She's also the oldest. I give Jordan SO much credit for her bravery but I think Jennifer had a HUGE part in their escape and she seems to being having the most difficulty processing the outcome. My heart goes out to all of them, but especially Jennifer, given she tried to escape earlier and help her siblings but her speech was so odd given her upbringing and misconstrued as a special needs child and she was returned to her sick parents.
I don't think we can tell how people are processing things by how they appear. Some people find it easier to hide their pain & some people struggle to stop it from escaping. I agree both of them deserve massive credit for being brave enough to rescue themselves & their siblings.
Jennifer said she was forced to punish her siblings, like locking them in cages. I'm sure the guilt she must feel is overwhelming. Jordan just loving her and calling her sweet, that has to be emotional.
Jennifer is the eldest, so she went through hell the longest... I think she was asked to discipline the others while the parents were away too. That girl had to suffer the most while also growing up way too fast in that house of horrors. None of us could imagine what she's been through. My heart goes out to you Jennifer! 💛
jordan expressing how much it means to her when people tell her she matters and she’s loved made me tear up so much oh my goodness. i’m so happy these girls are free to heal. ❤️🩹
Like the homeschooled girls I personally know, they are ripe for abuse. Sexual and otherwise. Actual school, private or public, teaches kids who the takers are. Isolated children don't have the ability to develop this skillset. Sometimes the little assholes are poor black boys. Other times they're wealthy white boys. They're still takers/opportunists. The Turpin girls are still children. It doesn't matter that they're almost 30 years old.
Yeah same. I wish I could adopt them (i know they're grown but still) and teach them how to live properly and protect them from the world. Like they never had a chance they need people to look after them till they can stand on their own
@@katiaaskildt7830 I wish you could! We already know they were exploited and abused a few times since their release. They need patience and protection. The girls are seeing the world in wonderment and awe right now and I hope they dont fall prey to predators
I feel sad for them. You can see the sadness and terror in Jennifer's eyes. It's heartbreaking to hear Jordan's speech pattern and to think that this was all caused by years of neglect and abuse my her parents. I worry about these women being taken advantage of by the wrong people.
I’m just a grown man, laying in my bed at 2am, crying like a baby watching these two encourage each other and hold hands. Powerful… What a hell they went through…I’m sorry it ever happened--but on a positive note, I couldn’t be more excited for their futures. Beautiful women. God be with them.
The interviewer sounds like a compassionate person, also she asks very good, thought provoking questions! And I love how organically and gently she communicates with the guests, her attention flows from one sister to another and back and the interviewer keeps everyone involved. Great skills!
oh please she is total fake . Good morning America is a joke all they want to do is push the liberal agenda and you didn't notice how when she's breaking down and showing her sorrow they edit that piece out and segue into the next topic. you need to receive discernment using the holy spirit of God. seek Jesus Christ. wisdom will save you from evil people Jesus said that and also wisdom will help you see evil people even when they're trying to come off as good people. no matter what God was always with them and God rescued these children. but the world has evil sufficient unto the day and the evil will not stop until Jesus Christ returns. sorrow will still be in everyone's life and there will still be pain and they will still be fear but when you have God in your heart which these young women do, then there is hope and the hope is from God and it will not be killed. amen
I hope no one will take advantage of these women ever again. They’re so pure and innocent, and people can be manipulative and cruel. I hope they are surrounded by strong people with good intentions.
I thought the same. They may also attract a lot of men that like to be the protector and hero to a woman but as one of those types of men myself, I'd say this to any man that encounters them. Please get to know them first and don't let it become romantic until you're sure you can support them for the longterm.
@@Adam-uz3hj Wow Adam, you really do have issues and clearly a self appointed misguided belief that you're an expert in people based on very little information. For the record I've been married for 3 years to a woman that definitely didn't need saving after spending my 20s and early 30s mainly having flings and too many one night stands so clearly not an incel. I hope you find inner peace with the simmering anger you clearly feel inside and if writing anonymously in a way that might imply you're some kind of alpha male with no hangups to speak of makes you feel better then so be it but it's not really living is it Adam.
Poor Jennifer. To be 33 and not have been able to love a normal life must be so painful for her. Her childhood and youth taken away from her. I can see so much anguish in her eyes. Such a beautiful girl. 29 years of pain. I hope she has, and Jordan aswell have the best life and the rest of the Turpin kids. So sad.
They have been through more than most of us can even imagine. I believe with the right kind of support and healing the next chapter of their lives or better said this new outside life can be beautiful as they deserve.
Yes. She’s got a classic quality about her face. Reminds me of old Hollywood starlets…especially with that super blonde hair and the red lips. So pretty.
Yes! Her fashion sense is insane considering she was locked away her whole life. I noticed it during the documentary too. I’m intrigued and want to learn more about her. Jennifer too. I love her blunt cut and color. It’s like they can finally express themselves after being locked away for so long 🙏🏾
These young ladies made a grown man cry! Not one single child deserves any type of this kind of behavior from their parents! How brave and strong these young ladies are! Wishing you ladies and your siblings the very best of luck!
Yep i am a mess. Big bugger of a truck driver sitting in my cab sobbing what these kids went through and then again in foster care just dont know how any one could do this to children.
Man I have been in tears for an hour over this. I watched every video I could. When I first heard it from a Facebook post I was crying when I went over to Google and asked how is Jordan Turpin doing. That's where I'm at in the story right now seeing how good and how well everyone's doing these days. It takes a lot to move this much. If I could give each one of them a hug I sure would. I'm so sorry that happened to them. Then when I heard they got abused in foster care , I lost it again. Damn what a story. 50 years old crying like, what is wrong with me, this story touched my heart. God I pray for anyone suffering like they did. That's one of the most saddest horrible stories I've ever heard in my life. God bless all their souls. I am so happy for their rescue. I'm still at a loss for words.
They are all incredibly vulnerable. They are basically teenagers or adults with the mindset of children and no real knowledge about the world. They need some ppl who really love them to teach and protect them or someone horrible out there will abuse them again.
They're all vulnerable because of what they have been through, but Jordan was the one to escape and get help - she's stronger than people think. All of those kids/adults will be extremely wary of people for the rest of their lives.
Yes they are emotionally vulnerable but Jordan also has a spine of steel because of everything she went through, I saw innocence but also so much strength and courage in these young ladies.
I like how Jordan talks almost like she has her own little accent. She's so cute too. I love Jenny's sweetness and you can tell she's a loving person.. they are both beautiful ladies I hope they have a great life ahead.
@@pl3459 seriously. Your response is “they’re both cute”. These women are warriors and survivors and braver than anyone whose take home is “they’re cute”.
Jordan saying “I didn’t even know I ran that fast” Girl was so caught up in that moment to do her utmost best to find help and save her siblings. That survival instinct was strong and I can’t even begin to imagine what they went through but I am so happy to see them finally starting to experience life in their own way. What wonderful ladies these two are.
@@JprimeWorld It’s not their fault, they never got a proper education and probably never had a chance to speak. Now they’re bombarded with interviews and what not, don’t make fun of them.
It’s so frustrating and so aggravating that the system has failed them in so many ways. Even now they all should qualify for extensive counseling, education, therapies and financial assistance. There definitely needs to be a thorough investigation. Honestly all the children should sue.
I’m pretty sure I saw that 600,000 was donated & they don’t have any of it?! Beyond Brutal & sickening that the people that were supposed to help them abused them again 😡😢😢
I agree. I was horrified when I heard they were put in another bad situation once they were rescued. How could the system just abandon those kids like that after what they endured? I’d like to know what steps have been taken to rectify this. I hope there is a thorough investigation
Exactly! I think that over a half a million dollars was raised for them and they weren’t even given money to buy a bike! Some have been abused in placement and the older ones live in crime ridden housing! People need to be held accountable and they need to be given their money!!!
It’s beyond DISGUSTING that they got out of this situation and went into another horrible similar one! The system failed them! It’s insanity! I am just happy that they are trying to find their way. They are so sweet and positive and such beautiful young ladies. I pray that nothing but peace, pure love, support and happiness comes their way.
Jordan she saved so many lives on that night... She should get an honorary The Congressional Medal of Honor or it`s civilian equivalent for saving so many lives :):):)
It's incredibly sad to know that they ended up in a terrible foster home. After they were rescued from their parents, they should have only felt safe and cared for, instead they got the opposite. Shame on any foster parents that mistreat or neglect children placed in their care.
Yeah same, I tear up as soon as they start speaking. And I'm a strong, bearded, grown-ass man looking like a mix between a hobo and an angry bear. :'D I simply take a sip of my coffee and shed a tear or two. May their lives be full of joy.
Jordan’s natural intelligence is really staggering. Freedom and the real world must have been such abstract ideas, and the pure courage to chase that without any knowledge of what she was going to encounter on the outside is just unbelievable. It’s an incredibly rare kind of person willing to face chaos head-on like that. Clearly the groundwork had been laid by the older sister, with teaching the younger siblings language etc, but without a courageous person to carry out the task it’s all null. It’s incredible how the base traits of some people can have such a bearing on so many, and it does make you wonder where Jordan would have been in another, more normal, life. Amazing people 👏🏻👏🏻
I think she will be able to do great things. I have no idea what made the parents the way they were, but the mother, particularly, could not have been from a healthy circumstance or without issues, but in the very least, the father was intelligent in his own way, capable of good careers, so it isn't unreasonable for the daughter to be as bright and with time and opportunity now, to do amazing things. She's wonderful, they're wonderful!
The reason she was afraid to call 911 is because the real world is that scary! At time stamp 1:08 she states they stepped up to help people understand. Realizing now more is never better, more stuff, more pets, more kids is 1800century Bs. Regardless of what their bible or their god said these people should not have had more! This is how cycles repeat-so sad
There really is no word for what they are. Brave, heroic, yes but way beyond that. God Bless these great women and their siblings. They deserve everything good and kind.
Just looking at their hair colors, attire and listening to their speech...you can definitely see liberation in them. Freedom from a prison that should not have been. Freedom from dictators not fit to be parents! Courageous Jordan did it for her siblings and for herself!
Yes! They are beautiful girls enjoying life & taking care of themselves vs the shitty parents they had! They are free from those devils and can now be on the path to life!
@@estelleschneider9033 because the foster system is just as worse. Most couples that go into it aren't looking to care for a child but they are looking for a paycheck.
I hope one of them writes a book. Not only because I'm sure it would be a bestseller, but because I think it would help them to heal even more. What brave and beautiful girls!
@@CLWettstein22 Glad to see there are some good people left in this world. Thank You. For the others, such as the trolls leaving ugly comments in this statement, perhaps it is better that they are locked up and in jail. With that mentality and behavior as they do not make the world a better place.
I was surprised when she said she found herself in another bad situation after they were rescued from their parents. That's sad and just so horrendous. And then you realize all those younger kids are still minors. I hope they are in good, loving homes. They deserve only absolute love and protection
The 5 younger siblings were sexually, verbally, emotionally and physically abused by their foster parents who adopted them. I believe they were tried last month, November 2021
There are other sources too. I think New York Post has a story too. It is very disturbing! Why weren't they closely monitored?! Where were their advocates? The system fails children like this every day.
I can't believe that Jordan went from one horrible situation into another. How did the system fail them. They have gone through so much and they still are so positive and look forward to the future.
How can this happen, I mean really. Their has to be help to help all of them. Didn't they say they have been hungry again. Who has been helping these sister's. I don't understand!!!
The System is set up and run by predators. People that want to abuse children seek out positions of power to abuse children. After this special, and now that so many people know of them, they'll be exploited by those in power. The children have been brainwashed into believing in Faith (religion), which is a facade for evil people pretending to be good. They've escaped a matrix within another matrix of lies and treachery. If these children continue to believe these lies, they'll become the abusers. The cycle of stupid evil continues.
I absolutely love how Jordan embraces her sister everytime she starts to break! I was in a big family with an abusive father and I’m one of the youngest I alway stood up to bad situations to protect my older sisters. So I connect with her on being the one that ran away to save her siblings! Being older doesn’t mean you know how to take that role. I hope they have an amazing life from here on out! Cheers ladies!
Same here. Some of us are born to be warriors, and others are...not. I was the youngest of 6 in a viciously violent household. I was the one that took on the "protector" role, even though they were older than me. I knew I could handle it...but they obviously couldn't.
@@psychicrenegade It wasn't your older siblings' responsibility to protect you-- that was your parents' job. Older siblings' often endure far more abuse than the younger ones do, so they might have experienced more than you knew. Please don't blame your siblings because you were "stronger" than they were-- blame your parents.
I got a tear in my eyes when Jordan talked about how she felt about people’s loving messages online, when she felt that she never had those feelings. So tearful.
Jennifer cries every time I see her in an interview and she makes me want to cry to. I can only imagine what she's lost and what she's learning. I pray she finds peace and love in her life.
The hardest part of being psychologically abused by your parents is accepting the good, the love, and support from others. Reconciling how it's possible that others see your value, your worth, can love you, can accept you, can say you matter when those who brought you into this world thought and treated you the opposite, is almost as hurtful as the abuse itself. It is going to be a lifetime of healing.
Your comment is so empathic. I hope other children that have been abused as well can come to understand this. These girls are amazing for bringing child abuse to light in this way. It needs to be seen.
As a child that came from emotional abuse and sometimes physical, it’s very hard for me to accept love from other people. I have never been in a relationship because of it.
That was exactly my thought, it will take them forever to "recover" and i doubt they will ever fully heal but i i have high hopes for them! All i can say is that the worst part is over, better days are coming and i wish them nothing but the best in this life!
@@rhiannajd4412 It took me 35 years to get into a "real" relationship and believe I was worthy of love. I say "real" as I could not imagine a man wanting to have a relationship with me, loving me for me, other than use me and discard me. It does get better and though I had given up a long time ago, I have found a soulmate who showers me with love, I let myself be loved and am the happiest I have ever been. You will too, I have faith :)
I can't imagine the pain and suffering they went through!! They are extremely beautiful inside and out. It amazes me how strong they are. Wishing they have a happy and prosperous life!! What beautiful souls they have!!
I cry every time I see Jordan and Jennifer. No one on this show is talking about how the system failed them completely after they were removed from that nightmare. Then they were placed in homes, situations, that inflicted more hurt and trauma. No one asks where the money is, that was raised to help all of the children and how they ended up being completely screwed over. I hope Justin Bieber somehow gets involved and helps all of them. His videos were a light in their darkness.
For the past two years, Jennifer has been my best friend. I am blessed to know both of these young ladies. A major accomplishment for Jen was becoming a nationally certified phlebotomist! So watch out world, she knows how to use a syringe! Mwahahahaha! And even though we’ve climbed mountains together and petted wild donkeys on the side of the road, our favorite thing to do is just chill with a cup of Mountain Dew Baja Blast. She has overcome her past and is looking forward to such a bright future! I am so happy for her
I am but 1 of a million, I wànt to fill their hearts full of all they deserve. You are blessed to have the honour of knowing these girls, Jordan sweetheart you are loved. You are going to change the world. Just by being you.
Omg it’s like fate brought me to these videos that’s so weird earlier today I forgot the name of people who inject needles to take blood so I looked it up and has a whole talk with my friend that is so strange but I hope she is doing great! :)❤️
That is so great to know but I still worry that the adults do not have parental figures to help them navigate the real world and to be loved. I heard that the younger siblings were abused by foster parents and the older ones have been homeless and assaulted. Their money has been squandered too. I still don’t feel like all of them are protected. I would love to live nearby to help look after them.
Such brave girls. One can see that their self esteem has risen. It's so good to see them now. I hope their siblings have good lives too. Love from Norway.
People need to realize how bright these girls are! Jordan got her high school diploma despite never being able to attend school. She must pick up on concepts quickly. These ladies are very astute
@@realiteaparody9198 she could literally have a career as a singer if she wanted to train and record. Her voice is actually beautiful (as a singer/songwriter and vocal music coach, I am really particular too!)
I love Jordan’s outlook. She has somehow retained her innocence and you can tell both of their essence is just kindness. And truly they are the epitome of hope and gratitude for life. I hope all of the children are blessed with amazing lives after this 💕
@annag cocl She said she doesn't really talk about it all though. That's not healthy. I worry for her long term. I very much hope they ALL get the help the need and deserve.
It is just amazing how charming, beautiful, poised, honest, and sweet these young women are after the many many years of abuse and suffering they experienced both with their biological parents and foster parents! My heart hurts for them so much and I am so angry they were not helped by anyone for so long. How did this escape anyone's attention? The human innate will and love is amazing. Jordan literally overcame her years of brainwashing and abuse and risked everything to escape and get help for her siblings. Also, I think Jennifer tried her best to get help for her siblings but so much brainwashing and abuse was foisted upon her, I can only hope they receive the best therapists on earth and continue therapy as long as possible. I am so angry at the county child protective services as their fidicuary in refusing to give ANY of the kids the donated monies ($600,000) to help them. They are finally suing the county and I hope the county has to pay for punitive damages in addition to pain and suffering and the $600,000 owed plus interest. God bless them.
Jennifer is so strong. Imagine growing up as the oldest sister, seeing how her siblings were abused in so many levels and She couldn't do anything to help them Imagine the helplessness and pain she must have felt for so many years. It's absolutely heartbreaking. I hope with all my heart that she is okay now.
I still don't understand what were her parents plans. Keeping your children locked up till 50? these two devils shouldn't by judged by jury but by god. Give them a death sentence
You can tell that she struggles to find the vocabulary to express everything she really feels 😓 I admire their strength and I look forward to seeing them grow and flourish 💕💕
I cant believe what these kids had to go through. I couldn't stop crying when I saw what they went through. I'm so glad that Jordan had the strength and the courage to go and get the help. I can't believe that parents would do this to there kids. I'm so happy they are on the road to recovery.
i really admire Jordan for her social intelligence while speaking with the cop appearing in very little moments , like she already knew she sounded weird and that it's difficult to comprehend that she doesnt know anything about medicines or addresses , it amazes me that she explained very well despite the horrors she faced .
Exactly! And it’s her outstanding intelligence that saved all of her siblings life isn’t it amazing Those evil subhuman monster abusers that you can’t call parents will now suffer for decades in jail hope they will go through the worst but I’m sure they will even in prison inmates hate that kind of subhuman trash
I'm just amazed that a cop believed her. There is a good amount of people that refuse to believe kids just so they don't have to deal with it. I know its a bare minimum but it definitely shows how much these kids worked to get out.
The world does not deserve these girls. Their innocence and kindness blows my mind. I'm so happy to see that the evil they suffered did not corrupt their hearts. It made me cry to hear Jordan so emotional over thinking that she matters.
Im a 22 year old man and I cry everytime I watch these brave women. They have my full respect and I wish them nothing but eternal happiness and blessings in their lives as well as for their brave siblings.💜💜💜
Tears instantly started rolling down my cheeks when Jordan said: “Me personally, I thought that I wasn’t loved. So when people are saying that I matter; and they say I’m loved, and that I know that I’m making a difference.. I just like don’t understand it because my whole life I thought that I didn’t matter, and I wasn’t loved. So it just means so much to me.” Jordan I’m in awe on your beaming outlook on life. It’s contagious, especially for those who haven’t touched the surface of your childhood, yet still have such an ugly view of the world. Your motivational speaking career has already started💗🥰
I hope the girls see ur message because u nailed it on the head! Im so proud of all of them! Im telling you these kids are gonna do so much good for this world, and boy oh boy I am here for it!! I've been keeping a very close eye on this case so it makes my heart so happy to see these young ladies today. I can't wait to see what their gonna do in the future. Im so excited for them!
I’ve been going through some dark depression lately but hearing these brave, beautiful sisters tell their story and talk about their new found love of life, really puts things in perspective for me. Life IS beautiful and I’m very lucky to be here.
I watched the special in clips on UA-cam and I was impressed by how strong and brave these women are for not only escaping this and sharing this horrific story. May they and their siblings have a better life.
Don't forget the fact that people like Vanessa Espinoza were a big contributing factor in the failing of the system for these girls. There has to be some kind of an accountability for the money and for the continued harm against them. I hope a lawyer picks this up and takes it all the way and gets these girls the restitution they deserve.
YES! I very happy they called her and all the shady county officials who continue to abuse them. It's disgusting! What the hell is going on in California. That family deserves those funds and most of all to be cared for with basic needs.
@@CHEDDARANDWAFFLES actually no Satan was …their parents were not true followers of God. If you read his word these people did not do nothing he said to do….parenting is a gift and they will answer for their actions
The cruelty these young women and their siblings went through was unforgivable. They are heros and I hope they can find stability, real love, respect and be safe.
Being kicked out in to this world without the mental, emotional tools or financial tools is cruelty beyond humanity. We can send hope or $$$ their way but too many kids! One out of 13 could snap, the cycle repeats and who is to blame. Idiot parenting!!
The lack of real support is saddening. A few of the siblings were thrown into foster care homes where further abuse was reported. It’s ridiculous we don’t have a better child care system in this country
And then going to a foster -or wherever bc I have no idea- that mistreated and denied them food.( Hungry again) Unbelievable!!. I pray whoever it was will never be able to foster again. The whole world knows these kids so it's amazing the fosters would do anything but pamper and protect these children.
As a child abuse survivor i feel so connected to their expressed sentiments , amazing strong ladies May you always feel loved and happiness in all aspects
In another interview she said she was always afraid no one would believe her and the fear of being forced to go back if no one did believe it... I felt it in my soul.
I am sorry that happened to you 😭 I was abused by my father and my mom never believed me since he did it when she was not home. Every time I told her he was saying that I am making this up. She also told me that I mind hurt his heart that’s why he did it, because emotionally you can hurt more than physically. That is what she was saying to me. I was also verbally abused and my mom never was on my side. I left Russia and now live in USA and did not see my mom for 8 years and not excited to see her.
This has been one of the hardest stories to watch in recent years. The lack of vocabulary and sentence structure, their naivety, and innocence is just so unfair. They’re doing so well, and her cadence in speech has improved so much. Feel weird saying I feel proud but I do. Fucking good for them, for real
That’s what I have been thinking but didn’t know to phrase it. My heart is broken to who they could have been. These girls are hero’s. Proud of them beyond what they can imagine.
And through it all they've still maintained a sense of dignity... The naivete will probably be with them forever but that, too, is almost a "forgiving" attribute - they don't appear to understand the depravity of what they've been through because there was nothing else to compare it to...so it's as if being unaware has protected them... I've never witnessed a situation where the heroes have no idea of the magnitude of their accomplishments...
I love the courage of these two girls . Their love for each other are overwhelming ! Time heals the wound .. May they find inner strength and continued courage to live a better life and be a role model for everyone who the unfortunate ones !
I hope Jennifer knows how incredible she is to watch over her siblings. Have the courage to put them before her. I hope your life is filled with so much life, love, and big dreams. Jordan is so courageous, a big dreamer I hope your future is everything you wish it to be.
Justin Bieber I hope he reaches out to these hereos- it was his career, interviews helped give these 2 courage & strength. Oh my goodness. This family & their story breaks mmm heart, especially to hear they (Some) were in a Horrible foster care
You’re always 10 times stronger than you may realize that’s why professional athletes when they win awards are always shocked they don’t realize how good they are
What an incredible story. I hope their other siblings are doing well also. When Jordan said her first visit to the park and fresh air and natural beauty left her feeling "how could heaven be better than this?". Well, if that doesn't give you perspective what will?.we all take our ordinary lives for granted
And don’t ever be embarrassed about what you didn’t know and how your speech is a little different. Everything you say comes out with truth and heartfelt. You’re honest and good people. Hope your siblings are finally receiving assistance they need and deserve.
I’m actually shocked of how clear they sound because if you watch the documentary about the girl named jeannie who was isolated, neglected and abused for the first i think 13yrs of her life, you would see that the turpin kids definitely came out of that horror with miracles.
@@anonnnymousthegreat older kids experinced normal school for a short period time. And they determined to teach their little sibling as much as they know.
Jordan she saved so many lives on that night... She should get an honorary The Congressional Medal of Honor or it`s civilian equivalent for saving so many lives :):):)
I’ve noticed Jordan mouth breathes. She talked about how nasty and foul the smell inside the home was. I wonder if she became a mouth breather because of the filth she lived in her entire life. And I wonder if that’s why she has a unique dialect
In a way they kind of do. The only people they were speaking to was their siblings and sometimes the parents. I honestly am impressed with how far they managed to come under their circumstances.
@@squiggleworks9 Idioglossia, also known as "twin speak" describes what you are getting at quite well I think. In this case, the children just never had another source to correct their speech, and so their speech patterns never disappeared like in most cases.
It breaks my heart that Jordan escaped her house of horrors and then ended up in another bad living situation. Such a brave girl. Hope the other 11 siblings are doing well and healing from such a horrible upbringing.
@@tanyaa4826 they aren't giving any of the turpins money raised for them for education etc and some of them had to couch hop i cant remember where i read it but it's online also one of the brothers he asked to use some of the money raised to buy a bike for transport they refused n now he has no form or transport
Omg! I remember literally like thousands of people wanting to help them and some saying they would take in all 13 of them. But the system said it all had to be done privately because there are minors involved. How could these children been fail again? Ugh
no one talks about how they were still abused in foster care after, and how the public guardian failed to marshal 1.2 million dollars they received through donations and so they’re STILL STRUGGLING. how this world has failed these children is flabbergasting
I'm in tears just listening to them. As a mother of two young boys, I just can't comprehend how anyone could treat humans let alone their own children like this. My maternal instincts just wants to adpot them and be a loving mother to them. I wish them the very best, and most of all, I wish them to be healed of their past life.
@@saharagold it is a sad reality, that the mother herself and unhealed traumas, you're right. This is why therapy and support is so important before being given responsibility over other human beings (own babies /children) A vicious cycle if they're left to their own devices.
When jennifer says “mother” and “father”, you can tell she is disturbingly traumatized. In the 20/20 interview, she said that she hates even calling her birthgiver, “mother”. And i don’t blame her one bit for that. I would disown my parents if they were monsters as well.
The sisterly dynamic between these two is incredible! You can tell they truly depend on each other and love one another so much. Hoping for brighter days ahead for all the children that came out of such a horrible situation!
I hope they're not. I hope in prison they find out what they did and punish them. I've heard that child molesters are treated very bad by inmates. I'm sure everyone knows what they did, even there.
@L true but even then they’re getting their ass whooped but they have beds, showers, food, they can walk around, do activities etc. It’s still not as bad. Isn’t their sentence like 25 years or something? it’s not even the time the eldest kids spent in that house of horror 😔 unless i understood the sentence wrong, i’m bad with American justice 🙃
I HIGHLY doubt they are . I watched this prison stuff once and the girl said “when the inmate’s know your story and know you hurt children your life will be hell”
It makes me so mad that Jordan was put into another bad place/home after everything she already went through but it’s incredible that she is still so positive and didn’t let that defeat her. I’m so glad she, Jennifer and the rest of their siblings are in a much better place now and I wish them nothing but the best now and in the future. I hope they manage to stay in touch with each other and just live the normal life they all deserve.
Exactly. I about flew out of my seat when I heard that. I can’t really find anything about it, do you know what happened? I feel like I need to personally go make sure these kids are being taken care of
Well they will be used up and thrown away by Hollywood/media first and foremost. Predators are gonna circle these poor people. The story is worth millions and they are pretty girls. Somebody should look out for them. Get them out of cali for starters
I wish the best for all of them. This story moved me so deep. They deserve all the love and good stuff that the world can give them. Love from Argentina.
I was isolated from the world for 18 years, all my siblings ran away. My sister stayed with me even though she was 3 years older. I'm so glad I escaped, and I'm 25 now. But the amount of work you have to put in to adjust to the world is earth shattering. Learning how other humans work is such a hurtful process. People and the world can be so beautiful, but the PTSD the kind of abuse we went through gave us can be debilitating. The moment I ran away was exactly how Jordan was, just utter terror, I felt like I was going to die if my mom caught me. Just like Jordan, you had to make a divisive plan to leave, you couldn't just run away, if we left we had to leave for good. Just like Jordan, I snuk on the internet to learn how other humans were, and it wasn't Justin Bieber for me - it was the Jonas Brothers for me and my sister. Movies like The Lord of the Rings trilogy, High School Musical, Hannah Montana, Camp Rock, all those really kept me going through the abuse, and it was the few shows we were allowed to watch. Before the Turpin story broke a few years ago, I never heard other people had a similar life to me. It's a very odd life that not a whole lot of people experience, specifically THAT type of seclusion and abuse. The type of religious trauma you have to get over, is a huge struggle too. Thankfully I've met the God of love and not the one of hatefulness, judgment, limitation that I was taught about.
I am so glad you survived and your sister stayed with you. I hope you are all doing way, way better than just surviving each day now. In my experience the cptsd never leaves (I went through severe sadistic child abuse as an only child and I am a 57 year old woman. On paper, have done extremely well, alone. However the hyper vigilance, and panic attacks persist).I hope you process fully all you went through with a empathetic supportive psychologist trained in cptsd , educating yourself and your shared loyalty and history with your sister. Love, and all the very best xo
These two are beyond sweet. They deserve so much love and the fact that they went into another bad situation makes me so sad. They should have been taken care of and kept together❤️😞
I love how much they’re finding themselves. They’re changing hair colors, and doing fun nails, and growing into the people they should have been long ago.
Word. Let them discover all the things that we've had the luxury of having it.
Exactly.
i am 100% sure they dont decide what they wear on camera. TV shows get sponsored and have people that choose the outfits.
@@Pimpmedown Yes for sure
@@Pimpmedown yes but they definitely chose their manicure and hair color
The look on Jennifer's face when she says "I have my own place, my own car, my own little kitty cat" It touched my heart; she looks absolutely in love with life. God please bless these women and keep them happy and safe.
and a bunny! I smiled so much at that. I have had both those pets. They are the best. I am so happy for her, building a great life from the ashes of the former one. Rising like a phoenix!
Amen
Amen to this Amy Leigh! Watching their story is a very good reminder to embrace and appreciate the little things we get to witness and experience each day. Simple baths, fresh air, food... wow.
💯💫
Amén
Jordan's intelligence is actually mind blowing. Although her vocabulary isn't considered "normal" she still manages to articulate herself in a way that leaves you in awe. I just cannot comprehend how someone can know what happened to those kids and still let them be in a similar situation.
Spot on.
Blownminding.
All jokes aside, i completely agree.
@@Rikb1234 sus
@@Rikb1234 ahhh, i get it. I thought you were being weird but clearly it’s me that needs to look in the mirror. haha cheers. & your right. very very sad indeed
The foster family are not usually good people 🙄 there alot of abuse on not feeding the children and sexualy abuse.
Dude the fact that Jordan and 5 of her siblings went on to another abusive foster home after she escaped is mind boggling... And yet here she is, still so brave and so kind. These sisters are inspirational. Stay strong all... There is joy and beauty in this life, and I wish it all for you.
Yet California makes sure that, despite being flooded w illegal immigrants, sees to it , prioritizes to 'rescue " 12 year old girls from their 'abusive" parents to provide mastectomies, against parental objection, if the school manages to convince the girls that they are "transgender:. Yep, California has their priorities straight.
What is wrong with people. The foster home!!! Why take them if they gona abuse the victoms of an abuse! Wow!
@@maiajanashiasmith - bc California is not making foster care oversight a priority. They have allowed themselves to be overburdened with other priorities, and there are simply not the resources of foster families, the resources for oversight, to prioritize safety of children in foster care.
Theynare taking on ever increasing burdens from there continued increased FLOOD of children and adults illegally from other coin tries w no resources or even a penny to their names, who do not know the language, have no education, in need of medical care, and omg the educational needs!
ALSO, California chooses to spend the $$ that SHOULD be allocated for the protection of children, to pay for hormonal treatments and mastectomies of 12 year olds whom the school has groomed into thinking they are transgender, and doing so AGAINSTn the will of these children's parents.
The young think about it, there is no wonder the needs of American children flall through the cracks.
.
@@finallythere100 well I forgot the fact they where in California there is nothing normaly functioning in that state. Oh this is fun fact as well - give a Ukrainian person refugee visa, let them come in and ask them to pay $400 for a job permit, while sending billions to launder gun money and to destroy their contry.
What??? The child services knowing what they went the and they aren't monitoring them better. What a joke! 🤬
I see a lot of people appreciating Jordan, quite rightly, but I think Jennifer is the one who has suffered the most. Imagine trapped in this situation for 29 years. Jennifer my heart goes out for you !!
They're remarkable young ladies to be sure. Jordan is flipping adorable with how she blurts out information and I think that's why she gets a lot of the attention in the comments. I'm sure Jennifer has added emotions for being through it the longest and also being forced to partake in the abuse by locking her siblings in the cages. It's vile what these "parents" did, but to force one of their children to do it, too . . . well, I hope they get special attention in lock up. Jennifer and Jordan are extraordinary individuals and I appreciate how willing they are to share their stories. Being so free with that information is providing valuable resources to effect reform in areas like homeschooling to protect children in the present and future.
@UCTBF_XYezBnHpIdXD6a_TwQ Well, I think Jordan also has more of a TV personality. Jennifer seems a little more shy, though they both seem like great people.
They all suffer! They all suffer the most so stop
THANK YOU ❤
Jordan saved them so of course a lot of ppl are proud of her
Crazy how Jordan Turpin literally looks like a actress or model. Hope she gets to live her best life. She deserves it. As do her brothers and sisters
yes she's so beautiful omg when I first saw her I didn't believe she's one of the Turpin siblings
she kinda reminds me of anya taylor joy
But she can't enter that business coz that'll be another trauma for her.
Probably because she IS actress and model. They both are for this story that really seems made up for entertainment. There are simply way too many holes and inconsistencies. Either way, if it is a true story, let's hope the parents are disciplined in prison 100 fold for what they supposedly did.
She's so beautiful!
The older sister absolutely breaks my heart because you can just see how much more traumatized she is. I really hope they all are able to get the help they truly need and a trusted support system.
She probably feels alot of guilt. The older children were made too subdue the younger ones and we're threatened if didn't, too.
Jennifer was so smart to help plan the escape, and the fact that she tried to leave before and left that night too but returned for her siblings is just remarkable! She had such a short time in public school and it wasn't very positive but she really advocated for their freedom and had a great sense of survival and love for her family! She is a beautiful person, inside and out. And Jordan is just so phenomenal! What a sweet, beautiful and courageous young woman!
Right..she was forced to lock her siblings in the cage..she also the one who prepared/served the parents’ meals when she’s literally starving
@@jakeshim8785 I think Jennifer is a true hero. The children were so fortunate to have her as their primary care taker. She tried to protect them and she also is the one who nurtured
them and gave them love. You can see how much Jordan loves her and I am sure all of the children loved her. I believe that is what allowed them to survive. She said that her
mother was very kind to her when she was very young but then had a nervous breakdown from the father and became mentally impaired. She said it in her impact statement
to the court that she saw how her father ruined her mother but she was not going to let him do it to her. She is very strong and a very kind person. She deserves only the best.
I read on wiki that many Turpin kids are homeless , out of school and one was abused in the foster home too. They didn't get any donated money.. the system already failed them.
When Jordan breaks down when she explains that she doesn't understand people telling her "She matters and is loved", you can see Jordan's deep pain and the abused innocent child surface. My heart just dropped and this brought me to tears. 7:05
Aw me too was so sad lol
Also why did the foster parents also abuse them?
I mean come on those poor children!
Man i hate people that abuse others.
They are the poison of this world.
Our Parents have a huge impact on our lives .If they are abusive they can make your life so dark and hopeless and it you will be traumatized forever.
Thankfully my parents were very loving and caring
So i hope and pray that God heals people from the pain and protects them against these people.
Me too, I started to cry to when you could see how emotional she was getting
@@dude9318 Amen to that 🙏
@@dude9318You’re very blessed. ✝️🤍🥰
Jordan’s ability to articulate after such deprivation is blowing my mind. They are so smart I’m glad they are sharing their positive souls with the world
If I remember, someone said that Jennifer had SOME education and did what she could to teach her siblings too. It's amazing that they got through this
She was the one who taught her siblings. Amazing how she turned a short amount of education into what she is now
@@Crazypixiness Yes, Jennifer went to school through 3rd grade. She was the only Turpin child who went to school.
@@Crazypixiness 3rd grade when's when she was taken out of school and none of the other kids ever went to school after that.
Yeah. She's brilliant in her wishes to articulate beyond her educational arrest.
I’m a teacher and STILL can’t figure out how child services weren’t called for the oldest girl when she attended school. Smelling and wearing totally soiled clothing is a great big red light.
Either they did call and CPS didn’t care or the teachers didn’t care.
Huge red flag.
I was in an abusive family growing up, and the signs were obvious. None of the teachers figured it out, so I wouldn't put that much faith in the system.
thats what im saaying,.. my teacher would have called them instantly
I doubt the clothes were as bad back then as they were in the pictures, but I agree it was a total failure by the school system
Jordan wanting to become a motivational speaker is so amazing considering she was terrified to talk to anyone. Her voice is one you can’t forget either
Like a flower blossoming
That decision to escape literally saved all of them
she needs to take care of herself first
@@jv-ep2tc oh hush, she's can take care of herself while also pursuing her dream. She's been locked away and doing that can be part of the healing process (obviously).
@@zz7073 not really. she is in rough shape. you have to be healthy [healed] and knowledgeable to help others. never put the cart before the horse. do not deny the seriousness of this woman's situation.
@@jv-ep2tc she seems to have healed but either way we wouldn’t know…maybe she has and u don’t see it. What difference would it make though? Genuinely curious.
“I want to be a motivational speaker to help others and stuff. My whole life it’s been so hard for me to understand why, why everything has happened. But if I can use what I went through to make a difference in the world, then I think that can heal me.”
For someone who maybe feels she doesn’t have strong verbal skills, she just made such a profound statement. She has a Christlike outlook on pain that is so commendable.
I have an aunt who's a former drug addict. She's a lifecoach and has helped so many people. Jordan would be a fantastic motivational speaker. I'm sure she will help a lot of people.
It is a true testament to faith and the gospel that she never lost her true faith despite the hell her parents put her through. I pray that she will continue to hold fast
Is it me or Has anyone else been binging this story and crying uncontrollably? Jordan is so brave and so sweet and so beautiful. She just melts my heart. I hope and pray for the best life for these girls and their siblings going forward. They deserve so much love.
Me literally awhile ago 😭😭😭😭is there a part 6?
@Spirits of the Children bro ikr, literally was crying on each episode
Literally me
Same. Idk how I managed to get through this without literally sobbing.
You are not alone in that. I found myself watching with tears rolling down my face. These brave women saved themselves and their siblings. It’s truly heartbreaking what they went through and inspiring how they didnt let it break THEM. So many people that grow up in similar situations repeat the cycle. My fiancé was actually grew up in a similar way. Not allowed to leave the basement and was only allowed to receive meals at the foot of the stairs. Although this is waaaay extreme. He too made the decision to be a amazing dad and make a change and not let the cycle of abuse continue. God bless that family
Jennifer seems to have a much harder time processing what happened. She's also the oldest. I give Jordan SO much credit for her bravery but I think Jennifer had a HUGE part in their escape and she seems to being having the most difficulty processing the outcome. My heart goes out to all of them, but especially Jennifer, given she tried to escape earlier and help her siblings but her speech was so odd given her upbringing and misconstrued as a special needs child and she was returned to her sick parents.
I don't think we can tell how people are processing things by how they appear. Some people find it easier to hide their pain & some people struggle to stop it from escaping. I agree both of them deserve massive credit for being brave enough to rescue themselves & their siblings.
Jennifer said she was forced to punish her siblings, like locking them in cages. I'm sure the guilt she must feel is overwhelming. Jordan just loving her and calling her sweet, that has to be emotional.
Jennifer is the eldest, so she went through hell the longest... I think she was asked to discipline the others while the parents were away too. That girl had to suffer the most while also growing up way too fast in that house of horrors. None of us could imagine what she's been through. My heart goes out to you Jennifer! 💛
I think all of them are in Shock and it is really sad and upsetting
Yes because she is the oldest, she suffered the longest
jordan expressing how much it means to her when people tell her she matters and she’s loved made me tear up so much oh my goodness. i’m so happy these girls are free to heal. ❤️🩹
Like the homeschooled girls I personally know, they are ripe for abuse.
Sexual and otherwise.
Actual school, private or public, teaches kids who the takers are.
Isolated children don't have the ability to develop this skillset.
Sometimes the little assholes are poor black boys. Other times they're wealthy white boys.
They're still takers/opportunists.
The Turpin girls are still children.
It doesn't matter that they're almost 30 years old.
Heartbreaking.
@@jstravelers4094 r h
The state of Cali is holding money that was donated to them this case is far from over cuz now the system is victimizing them. Smh
I can't see how the interviewer kept a straight face. That was heart wrenching.
The bond that the sisters have is unbreakable. Its what kept them going and gave them the strength for their siblings to escape.
I just worry they may get taken advantage of. They are smart but perhaps also naive. Someone needs to protect them.
THIS!!
Yes
Yeah same. I wish I could adopt them (i know they're grown but still) and teach them how to live properly and protect them from the world. Like they never had a chance they need people to look after them till they can stand on their own
@@katiaaskildt7830 I wish you could! We already know they were exploited and abused a few times since their release. They need patience and protection. The girls are seeing the world in wonderment and awe right now and I hope they dont fall prey to predators
@@riase How were they exploited and abused? I haven't heard about that.
I feel sad for them. You can see the sadness and terror in Jennifer's eyes. It's heartbreaking to hear Jordan's speech pattern and to think that this was all caused by years of neglect and abuse my her parents. I worry about these women being taken advantage of by the wrong people.
they unfortunately already have been.
Nah I don't worry about that. They're strong, they had to learn to be strong the hard way. And they know they deserve better
@@AFoodReview what happened,
yes, I hope they stay close and can help guide each other in the life ahead.
I feel the same exact way. I hope if they get into relationships it’s with strong loving men who won’t take advantage or abuse them
I’m just a grown man, laying in my bed at 2am, crying like a baby watching these two encourage each other and hold hands. Powerful… What a hell they went through…I’m sorry it ever happened--but on a positive note, I couldn’t be more excited for their futures. Beautiful women. God be with them.
Me too, man, me too.
I'm not a man, but I'm so with you 😘 they're going to leave a beautiful path behind them when they're gone
Me too
Yep, me too! Can’t imagine what they went through.
Me too! They are amazing
The interviewer sounds like a compassionate person, also she asks very good, thought provoking questions! And I love how organically and gently she communicates with the guests, her attention flows from one sister to another and back and the interviewer keeps everyone involved. Great skills!
oh please she is total fake . Good morning America is a joke all they want to do is push the liberal agenda and you didn't notice how when she's breaking down and showing her sorrow they edit that piece out and segue into the next topic. you need to receive discernment using the holy spirit of God. seek Jesus Christ. wisdom will save you from evil people Jesus said that and also wisdom will help you see evil people even when they're trying to come off as good people. no matter what God was always with them and God rescued these children. but the world has evil sufficient unto the day and the evil will not stop until Jesus Christ returns. sorrow will still be in everyone's life and there will still be pain and they will still be fear but when you have God in your heart which these young women do, then there is hope and the hope is from God and it will not be killed. amen
Yes, she did a very good job keeping the interview tasteful and kind spirited
I was actually thinking she was a bit too business-like, she just interviewed them she didnt ‘talk’ to them if that makes any sense
I hope no one will take advantage of these women ever again. They’re so pure and innocent, and people can be manipulative and cruel. I hope they are surrounded by strong people with good intentions.
I thought the same. They may also attract a lot of men that like to be the protector and hero to a woman but as one of those types of men myself, I'd say this to any man that encounters them. Please get to know them first and don't let it become romantic until you're sure you can support them for the longterm.
Blessed be 🙏🏼

I read somewhere they were taken advantage of. Someone created a gofundme for them and stole the money.
Poor Jennifer. To be 33 and not have been able to love a normal life must be so painful for her. Her childhood and youth taken away from her. I can see so much anguish in her eyes. Such a beautiful girl. 29 years of pain. I hope she has, and Jordan aswell have the best life and the rest of the Turpin kids. So sad.
She does have tons of pain in her eyes. My heart breaks for her
I know. :.(
She still has a lot of living to do. She is on the right path.
She's still young
They have been through more than most of us can even imagine. I believe with the right kind of support and healing the next chapter of their lives or better said this new outside life can be beautiful as they deserve.
Jordan is STUNNING like her hair, her outfits, girl is living her best life and that makes me very happy.
Hello, how are you doing? Hope you’re having a wonderful day!
Yes. She’s got a classic quality about her face. Reminds me of old Hollywood starlets…especially with that super blonde hair and the red lips. So pretty.

She's gorgeous! She could be a model!
Yes! Her fashion sense is insane considering she was locked away her whole life. I noticed it during the documentary too. I’m intrigued and want to learn more about her. Jennifer too. I love her blunt cut and color. It’s like they can finally express themselves after being locked away for so long 🙏🏾
These young ladies made a grown man cry! Not one single child deserves any type of this kind of behavior from their parents! How brave and strong these young ladies are! Wishing you ladies and your siblings the very best of luck!
I''m nearly 60. Dad and a grand dad. I am a mess in tears.

Man I have been in tears for an hour over this. I watched every video I could.
When I first heard it from a Facebook post I was crying when I went over to Google and asked how is Jordan Turpin doing.
That's where I'm at in the story right now seeing how good and how well everyone's doing these days.
It takes a lot to move this much.
If I could give each one of them a hug I sure would. I'm so sorry that happened to them.
Then when I heard they got abused in foster care , I lost it again. Damn what a story.
50 years old crying like, what is wrong with me, this story touched my heart.
God I pray for anyone suffering like they did.
That's one of the most saddest horrible stories I've ever heard in my life.
God bless all their souls. I am so happy for their rescue.
I'm still at a loss for words.
Jordon is so vulnerable, predators will be drawn to her. The community needs to look out for her, and all of them really.
They are all incredibly vulnerable. They are basically teenagers or adults with the mindset of children and no real knowledge about the world. They need some ppl who really love them to teach and protect them or someone horrible out there will abuse them again.
I saw that in her too
So innocent
They're all vulnerable because of what they have been through, but Jordan was the one to escape and get help - she's stronger than people think. All of those kids/adults will be extremely wary of people for the rest of their lives.
All of them are
Yes they are emotionally vulnerable but Jordan also has a spine of steel because of everything she went through, I saw innocence but also so much strength and courage in these young ladies.
I like how Jordan talks almost like she has her own little accent. She's so cute too. I love Jenny's sweetness and you can tell she's a loving person.. they are both beautiful ladies I hope they have a great life ahead.
I think Justin Bieber should give her a call, she would flip! Someone should arrange it
@@jennifercameron7143 true. Waiting for that moment.
They're both cute, why are you saying only one is cute?
@@pl3459 seriously. Your response is “they’re both cute”. These women are warriors and survivors and braver than anyone whose take home is “they’re cute”.
I don't know Justin personally or I would that would be cool though
The dyed and styled hair, the makeup on their face, little things like this that show their freedom. God bless them
They’re so beautiful inside and out ❤️
Their individuality!
I am concerned about the bleached blond choice. It is essential that they be in therapy for a very long time and I hope they are.
The blonde hair makes Jordan look like Anya Taylor Joy, she's definitely got that pretty, unique look to her
She does indeed
wow.. it must feel strange watching those first moments with the outside world again, you can tell it brought back so much emotion
Jordan saying “I didn’t even know I ran that fast”
Girl was so caught up in that moment to do her utmost best to find help and save her siblings. That survival instinct was strong and I can’t even begin to imagine what they went through but I am so happy to see them finally starting to experience life in their own way. What wonderful ladies these two are.
It is chilling to know that she/they were probably never allowed to run. They were forced to sit a great deal of the time. 😭
They are ao brave and intelligent. You can tell they don't have the vocabulary but they try and they get their point across!
considering the situation i think they sound great and speak well:)
WOW Lanaaaaaa!!!! So glad this story reached to youuu! P.S You have AMAZING hair by the way! ✨
I think they were on Molly while talking
@@JprimeWorld It’s not their fault, they never got a proper education and probably never had a chance to speak. Now they’re bombarded with interviews and what not, don’t make fun of them.
@@JprimeWorld You should be ashamed of yourself
Take a long look in the mirror
It’s so frustrating and so aggravating that the system has failed them in so many ways. Even now they all should qualify for extensive counseling, education, therapies and financial assistance. There definitely needs to be a thorough investigation. Honestly all the children should sue.
I’m pretty sure I saw that 600,000 was donated & they don’t have any of it?! Beyond Brutal & sickening that the people that were supposed to help them abused them again 😡😢😢
I agree. I was horrified when I heard they were put in another bad situation once they were rescued. How could the system just abandon those kids like that after what they endured? I’d like to know what steps have been taken to rectify this. I hope there is a thorough investigation
As someone who experienced the "california child protective services" system first hand I was not at all surprised that those things happen to them.
Exactly! I think that over a half a million dollars was raised for them and they weren’t even given money to buy a bike! Some have been abused in placement and the older ones live in crime ridden housing! People need to be held accountable and they need to be given their money!!!
@@streettrout855 Oh My Love...I’m So Sorry to hear that. Where are You now? Are You ok
I love the bond they have as siblings, that they are able to support each other even though they have a dark past
It’s beyond DISGUSTING that they got out of this situation and went into another horrible similar one! The system failed them! It’s insanity! I am just happy that they are trying to find their way. They are so sweet and positive and such beautiful young ladies. I pray that nothing but peace, pure love, support and happiness comes their way.
They were put into another shitty home after all that? What was the system thinking? Why not keep them together so they can help eachother heal.
Jordan she saved so many lives on that night... She should get an honorary The Congressional Medal of Honor or it`s civilian equivalent for saving so many lives :):):)
Does anyone know exactly what happened?
@@marianagfx that’s what I wanna know. That’s shocking!
This made me so angry. The system is constantly failing these children.
I cannot watch these girls without crying. They deserve all the love in the world.
I hope the rest of their lives is filled with love, hope and healing
How true! Is there a charity to help them?
It's incredibly sad to know that they ended up in a terrible foster home. After they were rescued from their parents, they should have only felt safe and cared for, instead they got the opposite. Shame on any foster parents that mistreat or neglect children placed in their care.
Yeah its heartbreaking
Yeah same, I tear up as soon as they start speaking. And I'm a strong, bearded, grown-ass man looking like a mix between a hobo and an angry bear. :'D
I simply take a sip of my coffee and shed a tear or two. May their lives be full of joy.
Jordan’s natural intelligence is really staggering. Freedom and the real world must have been such abstract ideas, and the pure courage to chase that without any knowledge of what she was going to encounter on the outside is just unbelievable. It’s an incredibly rare kind of person willing to face chaos head-on like that. Clearly the groundwork had been laid by the older sister, with teaching the younger siblings language etc, but without a courageous person to carry out the task it’s all null. It’s incredible how the base traits of some people can have such a bearing on so many, and it does make you wonder where Jordan would have been in another, more normal, life. Amazing people 👏🏻👏🏻
I think she will be able to do great things. I have no idea what made the parents the way they were, but the mother, particularly, could not have been from a healthy circumstance or without issues, but in the very least, the father was intelligent in his own way, capable of good careers, so it isn't unreasonable for the daughter to be as bright and with time and opportunity now, to do amazing things. She's wonderful, they're wonderful!
10/10 for sure 😍
She really is smart, courageous and beautiful too.
The reason she was afraid to call 911 is because the real world is that scary! At time stamp 1:08 she states they stepped up to help people understand. Realizing now more is never better, more stuff, more pets, more kids is 1800century Bs. Regardless of what their bible or their god said these people should not have had more! This is how cycles repeat-so sad
100%
There really is no word for what they are. Brave, heroic, yes but way beyond that. God Bless these great women and their siblings. They deserve everything good and kind.
Just looking at their hair colors, attire and listening to their speech...you can definitely see liberation in them. Freedom from a prison that should not have been. Freedom from dictators not fit to be parents! Courageous Jordan did it for her siblings and for herself!
Yes! They are beautiful girls enjoying life & taking care of themselves vs the shitty parents they had! They are free from those devils and can now be on the path to life!
Reportedly the younger children placed in foster care are being abused..but if they are and if it is known why are they still in that situation ??
Jordan in that RED baby! Liberation !!!!!!!!!!! Yes
I don't think what you are seeing is their daily reality
@@estelleschneider9033 because the foster system is just as worse. Most couples that go into it aren't looking to care for a child but they are looking for a paycheck.
I hope one of them writes a book. Not only because I'm sure it would be a bestseller, but because I think it would help them to heal even more. What brave and beautiful girls!
I hope they make a movie, and perhaps gain some financial freedom for all siblings.
in the abc 20/20 episode jennifer mentioned that she wants to write a book some day, but i don’t remember if she said it would be about her life

I was surprised when she said she found herself in another bad situation after they were rescued from their parents. That's sad and just so horrendous. And then you realize all those younger kids are still minors. I hope they are in good, loving homes. They deserve only absolute love and protection

There are other sources too. I think New York Post has a story too. It is very disturbing! Why weren't they closely monitored?! Where were their advocates? The system fails children like this every day.
@@hungryfortruthhelpmate no way, that's insane. How could the system fail them again.
The kindness, love, and innocence shine through them😌
I can't believe that Jordan went from one horrible situation into another. How did the system fail them. They have gone through so much and they still are so positive and look forward to the future.
How can this happen, I mean really. Their has to be help to help all of them. Didn't they say they have been hungry again. Who has been helping these sister's. I don't understand!!!
Well the Foster Care system failed them. How did they get away with all of this? Don't people check on them? Ridiculous.
The System is set up and run by predators. People that want to abuse children seek out positions of power to abuse children.
After this special, and now that so many people know of them, they'll be exploited by those in power. The children have been brainwashed into believing in Faith (religion), which is a facade for evil people pretending to be good.
They've escaped a matrix within another matrix of lies and treachery. If these children continue to believe these lies, they'll become the abusers. The cycle of stupid evil continues.
what even happened to her?
It’s insane the lack of funding our foster care system gets. I’m sad the mainstream media just goes right over her comment too. 🙄
I absolutely love how Jordan embraces her sister everytime she starts to break! I was in a big family with an abusive father and I’m one of the youngest I alway stood up to bad situations to protect my older sisters. So I connect with her on being the one that ran away to save her siblings! Being older doesn’t mean you know how to take that role. I hope they have an amazing life from here on out! Cheers ladies!
Same here. Some of us are born to be warriors, and others are...not. I was the youngest of 6 in a viciously violent household. I was the one that took on the "protector" role, even though they were older than me. I knew I could handle it...but they obviously couldn't.
So sorry to the both of you.. I hope you're doing alright. Sending lots of love.
@@psychicrenegade wow you’re incredible! Sending all the beautiful positive vibes your way! 🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@mentallydisturbedllama473 wow thank you for that. Honestly that truly means a lot 🙌🏾
@@psychicrenegade It wasn't your older siblings' responsibility to protect you-- that was your parents' job. Older siblings' often endure far more abuse than the younger ones do, so they might have experienced more than you knew. Please don't blame your siblings because you were "stronger" than they were-- blame your parents.
I got a tear in my eyes when Jordan talked about how she felt about people’s loving messages online, when she felt that she never had those feelings. So tearful.
Jennifer cries every time I see her in an interview and she makes me want to cry to. I can only imagine what she's lost and what she's learning. I pray she finds peace and love in her life.
The hardest part of being psychologically abused by your parents is accepting the good, the love, and support from others. Reconciling how it's possible that others see your value, your worth, can love you, can accept you, can say you matter when those who brought you into this world thought and treated you the opposite, is almost as hurtful as the abuse itself.
It is going to be a lifetime of healing.
Your comment is so empathic. I hope other children that have been abused as well can come to understand this. These girls are amazing for bringing child abuse to light in this way. It needs to be seen.
As a child that came from emotional abuse and sometimes physical, it’s very hard for me to accept love from other people. I have never been in a relationship because of it.
That was exactly my thought, it will take them forever to "recover" and i doubt they will ever fully heal but i i have high hopes for them!
All i can say is that the worst part is over, better days are coming and i wish them nothing but the best in this life!
Yes, it certainly will take a lifetime of healing. Nobody should have to spend their adulthood healing from their childhood. This story touches me so!
@@rhiannajd4412 It took me 35 years to get into a "real" relationship and believe I was worthy of love. I say "real" as I could not imagine a man wanting to have a relationship with me, loving me for me, other than use me and discard me. It does get better and though I had given up a long time ago, I have found a soulmate who showers me with love, I let myself be loved and am the happiest I have ever been.

I cry every time I see Jordan and Jennifer. No one on this show is talking about how the system failed them completely after they were removed from that nightmare. Then they were placed in homes, situations, that inflicted more hurt and trauma. No one asks where the money is, that was raised to help all of the children and how they ended up being completely screwed over. I hope Justin Bieber somehow gets involved and helps all of them. His videos were a light in their darkness.

That is so great to know but I still worry that the adults do not have parental figures to help them navigate the real world and to be loved. I heard that the younger siblings were abused by foster parents and the older ones have been homeless and assaulted. Their money has been squandered too. I still don’t feel like all of them are protected. I would love to live nearby to help look after them.
Such brave girls. One can see that their self esteem has risen. It's so good to see them now. I hope their siblings have good lives too. Love from Norway.

@annag cocl She said she doesn't really talk about it all though. That's not healthy. I worry for her long term. I very much hope they ALL get the help the need and deserve.
She’s literally a hero. To have courage like that isn’t taught, it’s in your heart and she carried so much of it. Truly inspiring.
For real. If they weren't even taught what bruises were, they definitely weren't taught to have courage.
It is just amazing how charming, beautiful, poised, honest, and sweet these young women are after the many many years of abuse and suffering they experienced both with their biological parents and foster parents! My heart hurts for them so much and I am so angry they were not helped by anyone for so long. How did this escape anyone's attention? The human innate will and love is amazing. Jordan literally overcame her years of brainwashing and abuse and risked everything to escape and get help for her siblings. Also, I think Jennifer tried her best to get help for her siblings but so much brainwashing and abuse was foisted upon her, I can only hope they receive the best therapists on earth and continue therapy as long as possible. I am so angry at the county child protective services as their fidicuary in refusing to give ANY of the kids the donated monies ($600,000) to help them. They are finally suing the county and I hope the county has to pay for punitive damages in addition to pain and suffering and the $600,000 owed plus interest. God bless them.
Jennifer is so strong. Imagine growing up as the oldest sister, seeing how her siblings were abused in so many levels and She couldn't do anything to help them Imagine the helplessness and pain she must have felt for so many years. It's absolutely heartbreaking. I hope with all my heart that she is okay now.
I still don't understand what were her parents plans. Keeping your children locked up till 50? these two devils shouldn't by judged by jury but by god. Give them a death sentence
Sadly, these kids fell into a bad foster home where the abused continued for another 4years.
She also was instructed to put her brothers and sisters in cages or she would be punished. So messed up to do that too a child.

So true 💔🙏
I cant believe what these kids had to go through. I couldn't stop crying when I saw what they went through. I'm so glad that Jordan had the strength and the courage to go and get the help. I can't believe that parents would do this to there kids. I'm so happy they are on the road to recovery.
i really admire Jordan for her social intelligence while speaking with the cop appearing in very little moments , like she already knew she sounded weird and that it's difficult to comprehend that she doesnt know anything about medicines or addresses , it amazes me that she explained very well despite the horrors she faced .
You can tell both of these girls have very high emotional intelligence, which is their real saving grace.
Exactly! And it’s her outstanding intelligence that saved all of her siblings life isn’t it amazing
Those evil subhuman monster abusers that you can’t call parents will now suffer for decades in jail hope they will go through the worst but I’m sure they will even in prison inmates hate that kind of subhuman trash
I'm just amazed that a cop believed her. There is a good amount of people that refuse to believe kids just so they don't have to deal with it. I know its a bare minimum but it definitely shows how much these kids worked to get out.
Without those pictures the cop would probably have taken her right back home.
The world does not deserve these girls. Their innocence and kindness blows my mind. I'm so happy to see that the evil they suffered did not corrupt their hearts. It made me cry to hear Jordan so emotional over thinking that she matters.

Don't forget the fact that people like Vanessa Espinoza were a big contributing factor in the failing of the system for these girls.

The lack of real support is saddening. A few of the siblings were thrown into foster care homes where further abuse was reported. It’s ridiculous we don’t have a better child care system in this country
And then going to a foster -or wherever bc I have no idea- that mistreated and denied them food.( Hungry again) Unbelievable!!. I pray whoever it was will never be able to foster again. The whole world knows these kids so it's amazing the fosters would do anything but pamper and protect these children.

She also told me that I mind hurt his heart that’s why he did it, because emotionally you can hurt more than physically. That is what she was saying to me. I was also verbally abused and my mom never was on my side. I left Russia and now live in USA and did not see my mom for 8 years and not excited to see her.

This has been one of the hardest stories to watch in recent years. The lack of vocabulary and sentence structure, their naivety, and innocence is just so unfair. They’re doing so well, and her cadence in speech has improved so much. Feel weird saying I feel proud but I do. Fucking good for them, for real
Couldn’t have said it better myself!
That’s what I have been thinking but didn’t know to phrase it. My heart is broken to who they could have been. These girls are hero’s. Proud of them beyond what they can imagine.
Those " parents" can rot in hell
And through it all they've still maintained a sense of dignity...
The naivete will probably be with them forever but that, too, is almost a "forgiving" attribute - they don't appear to understand the depravity of what they've been through because there was nothing else to compare it to...so it's as if being unaware has protected them...
I've never witnessed a situation where the heroes have no idea of the magnitude of their accomplishments...
I love the courage of these two girls . Their love for each other are overwhelming ! Time heals the wound .. May they find inner strength and continued courage to live a better life and be a role model for everyone who the unfortunate ones !
I hope Jennifer knows how incredible she is to watch over her siblings. Have the courage to put them before her. I hope your life is filled with so much life, love, and big dreams. Jordan is so courageous, a big dreamer I hope your future is everything you wish it to be.
Justin Bieber I hope he reaches out to these hereos- it was his career, interviews helped give these 2 courage & strength. Oh my goodness. This family & their story breaks mmm heart, especially to hear they (Some) were in a Horrible foster care
I hope he does too.
Abc has the power to reach out to him for them....
@@daba2646 why does he have to maybe he has no idea about it..
@@chapingaryjr perhaps he doesn’t but public relations can
I wish we can tag him on here
I was in a bad place and their story made me realize that if they can persevere, so can I .
You’re capable of more than you realize!
hope your out of that bad place now
You’re always 10 times stronger than you may realize that’s why professional athletes when they win awards are always shocked they don’t realize how good they are
Are you ok right now?
Sending you positivity and love.
What an incredible story. I hope their other siblings are doing well also. When Jordan said her first visit to the park and fresh air and natural beauty left her feeling "how could heaven be better than this?". Well, if that doesn't give you perspective what will?.we all take our ordinary lives for granted
And don’t ever be embarrassed about what you didn’t know and how your speech is a little different. Everything you say comes out with truth and heartfelt. You’re honest and good people. Hope your siblings are finally receiving assistance they need and deserve.
I’m actually shocked of how clear they sound because if you watch the documentary about the girl named jeannie who was isolated, neglected and abused for the first i think 13yrs of her life, you would see that the turpin kids definitely came out of that horror with miracles.
@@anonnnymousthegreat older kids experinced normal school for a short period time. And they determined to teach their little sibling as much as they know.
@@anonnnymousthegreat Jeannie was isolated with no human contact - Like genuinely isolated. These girls grew up with 13 siblings to communicate with.
Jordan she saved so many lives on that night... She should get an honorary The Congressional Medal of Honor or it`s civilian equivalent for saving so many lives :):):)
Their speech is so unique. As if they have their own dialect.
I’ve noticed Jordan mouth breathes. She talked about how nasty and foul the smell inside the home was. I wonder if she became a mouth breather because of the filth she lived in her entire life. And I wonder if that’s why she has a unique dialect
In a way they kind of do. The only people they were speaking to was their siblings and sometimes the parents. I honestly am impressed with how far they managed to come under their circumstances.
I’ve been intrigued by this too. I’m guessing it has to do with the lack of socialization with others outside of their family unit
@@squiggleworks9 Idioglossia, also known as "twin speak" describes what you are getting at quite well I think. In this case, the children just never had another source to correct their speech, and so their speech patterns never disappeared like in most cases.
They weren’t able to speak growing up imagine hardly using your voice. I can imagine why their dialect is off
It breaks my heart that Jordan escaped her house of horrors and then ended up in another bad living situation. Such a brave girl. Hope the other 11 siblings are doing well and healing from such a horrible upbringing.
What happened w the other living situation?? So horrible:(
@@tanyaa4826 they aren't giving any of the turpins money raised for them for education etc and some of them had to couch hop i cant remember where i read it but it's online also one of the brothers he asked to use some of the money raised to buy a bike for transport they refused n now he has no form or transport
@@tanyaa4826 ua-cam.com/video/_kG243vh6FI/v-deo.html omg here's the link to a video explaining so sad! i never knew it was this bad
Omg! I remember literally like thousands of people wanting to help them and some saying they would take in all 13 of them. But the system said it all had to be done privately because there are minors involved. How could these children been fail again? Ugh
@@chelskaf disgusting! What an evil world!
no one talks about how they were still abused in foster care after, and how the public guardian failed to marshal 1.2 million dollars they received through donations and so they’re STILL STRUGGLING. how this world has failed these children is flabbergasting
I'm in tears just listening to them. As a mother of two young boys, I just can't comprehend how anyone could treat humans let alone their own children like this. My maternal instincts just wants to adpot them and be a loving mother to them. I wish them the very best, and most of all, I wish them to be healed of their past life.
Very sad that apparently their horrible mother suffered very similar herself as a child. But treated them just as bad, if not worse.
@@saharagold it is a sad reality, that the mother herself and unhealed traumas, you're right. This is why therapy and support is so important before being given responsibility over other human beings (own babies /children)
A vicious cycle if they're left to their own devices.
When jennifer says “mother” and “father”, you can tell she is disturbingly traumatized. In the 20/20 interview, she said that she hates even calling her birthgiver, “mother”. And i don’t blame her one bit for that. I would disown my parents if they were monsters as well.
she is the closest thing jordan had to a mom and i hope she knows that
I refer to my biological father as biological father or parent. He’s not a dad or father.
The sisterly dynamic between these two is incredible! You can tell they truly depend on each other and love one another so much. Hoping for brighter days ahead for all the children that came out of such a horrible situation!
I always cry when they do. I hope God protects these women and their siblings for the rest of their lives.
It so sad that the parent's are being treated better in prison than they ever treated there kids!!
I doubt it.. they probably done had their salads tossed a few times.. 🤔😎
I hope they're not. I hope in prison they find out what they did and punish them. I've heard that child molesters are treated very bad by inmates. I'm sure everyone knows what they did, even there.
@L true but even then they’re getting their ass whooped but they have beds, showers, food, they can walk around, do activities etc. It’s still not as bad. Isn’t their sentence like 25 years or something? it’s not even the time the eldest kids spent in that house of horror 😔 unless i understood the sentence wrong, i’m bad with American justice 🙃
I HIGHLY doubt they are . I watched this prison stuff once and the girl said “when the inmate’s know your story and know you hurt children your life will be hell”
It makes me so mad that Jordan was put into another bad place/home after everything she already went through but it’s incredible that she is still so positive and didn’t let that defeat her. I’m so glad she, Jennifer and the rest of their siblings are in a much better place now and I wish them nothing but the best now and in the future. I hope they manage to stay in touch with each other and just live the normal life they all deserve.
Exactly. I about flew out of my seat when I heard that. I can’t really find anything about it, do you know what happened? I feel like I need to personally go make sure these kids are being taken care of
@@derikloesch2472 me currently looking for the exact info
Well they will be used up and thrown away by Hollywood/media first and foremost. Predators are gonna circle these poor people. The story is worth millions and they are pretty girls. Somebody should look out for them. Get them out of cali for starters
And sad that the younger ones were revictimized after being put in foster care and sent to an abusive home !!😩😩☹️
@@ilovenails1276 OMG WHAAAATATATATATA
I wish the best for all of them. This story moved me so deep. They deserve all the love and good stuff that the world can give them. Love from Argentina.
What a lovely comment
I was isolated from the world for 18 years, all my siblings ran away. My sister stayed with me even though she was 3 years older. I'm so glad I escaped, and I'm 25 now. But the amount of work you have to put in to adjust to the world is earth shattering. Learning how other humans work is such a hurtful process. People and the world can be so beautiful, but the PTSD the kind of abuse we went through gave us can be debilitating.
The moment I ran away was exactly how Jordan was, just utter terror, I felt like I was going to die if my mom caught me.
Just like Jordan, you had to make a divisive plan to leave, you couldn't just run away, if we left we had to leave for good.
Just like Jordan, I snuk on the internet to learn how other humans were, and it wasn't Justin Bieber for me - it was the Jonas Brothers for me and my sister.
Movies like The Lord of the Rings trilogy, High School Musical, Hannah Montana, Camp Rock, all those really kept me going through the abuse, and it was the few shows we were allowed to watch.
Before the Turpin story broke a few years ago, I never heard other people had a similar life to me. It's a very odd life that not a whole lot of people experience, specifically THAT type of seclusion and abuse.
The type of religious trauma you have to get over, is a huge struggle too.
Thankfully I've met the God of love and not the one of hatefulness, judgment, limitation that I was taught about.
I hope you are doing well ..... Sending lots of love and strength✨
i’m so so sorry that you ever had to go through that! God bless xx
Sending positive thoughts to you and I hope you have a wonderful future
Sending you love and healing!
I am so glad you survived and your sister stayed with you. I hope you are all doing way, way better than just surviving each day now. In my experience the cptsd never leaves (I went through severe sadistic child abuse as an only child and I am a 57 year old woman. On paper, have done extremely well, alone. However the hyper vigilance, and panic attacks persist).I hope you process fully all you went through with a empathetic supportive psychologist trained in cptsd , educating yourself and your shared loyalty and history with your sister. Love, and all the very best xo
These two are beyond sweet. They deserve so much love and the fact that they went into another bad situation makes me so sad. They should have been taken care of and kept together❤️😞
