      God bless you. Take your time with that decision. Almost all adoptions are now "open". You will be required to be in some sort of contact with biological family. This can be an enormous hurdle and can even sabotage relationship with you child.

      The answer is responsibly raised children raised by responsible parents. The culture has endangered the Maddy’s of the world. All the children abandoned and caught in self destructive circular patterns in family histories exist in so many variations and types. They’re often described as on the margins. Appreciate and understand why so many want to rescue those on the margins, but the best result is raise your own, and love them without this broken culture that has let down so many.

      Just listening is sometimes the best for everyone. We get to watch uninterrupted & she was using this like a therapy session just to get it off her chest. That’s a very healthy thing to do. The more you hold things in, the more they fester. As long as she stays away from drugs & selling herself there’s a good chance she can get a job & have a better life. She has to use professional facilities like daycare or schools though to keep her daughter as safe as possible. I wouldn’t trust leaving her with friends or neighbors while at work. Save the money up to keep the daughter in a secure place. Give her a healthy happy childhood so she sees none of what the mother had to go through. Give her the best opportunities for an easier path to success. That way, you broke the cycle ❤️

    'I was damaged, but not unfixable damaged " This was so pivotal for me. My Wife (whose life was very similar to Maddy's) always said to me that none of us is ever broken. I am not broken, Maddy is not broken, none of us are. I know now that we cannot heal unless we face the insurmountable task of not only learning to like who we see in the mirror, but love them. Because if we don't think we are precious, perfect right here, right now, we will not do what it takes to fight for ourselves. It is excruciating work. But so far it has been worth it. Maddy, you are a rockstar. And your inner belief and inner strength are a goddamn torch blazing in the sky. Love, peace and blessings to you and your little girl. Namaste ☮️

      She's got a sense of self-respect, and that makes all the difference. What is really amazing is that with all the bad that people have done to her and tried to do to her, they did not ever manage to take that away from her. She did the right thing each time she decided to look out for herself and left a toxic situation, even if it meant having to risk running in with the law (and she owned up to this!) or going into the unknown without a plan (that is scary and takes a lot of courage to do). She learned stuff the hard way, but learn she did. She always kept her head up in spite. Others would have been broken beyond repair, turned to drugs as painkillers or other forms of backfiring self-medication, would have suicided or seeked violent revenge. She just persevered and tried to grasp any opportunity at (more) freedom and independence that presented itself. Unfortunately it hasn't been much so far, but she keeps her head and her hopes up without an overbearing sense of entitlement and without giving up her sense of self-worth, and what's even more is that she manages to still have empathy and sympathy for the people around her. That's more than most well-to-do people her age have managed. There is so much self-hate, abuse, exploitation, bitterness and coldheartedness around, but she isn't taking part in that. That's a strong personality right there, a true character.

Whether it’s true or even half of it. Who are we to judge someone’s trauma and their interpretation of their lives? Be grateful it’s not you or a loved one or maybe it does reach someone in this exact situation that needs hope. That is all this is for.

      Even the most deeply wounded can heal, through self awareness, self acceptance, kindness and understanding. Maddie being a good example of someone who has learned that growth and peace ultimately come from within. She has the strength, and the ability to be brutally honest with herself. I'm not saying she won't have times when she struggles with her trauma, but overall I think she will meet those challenges. It would be better not to dismiss and devalue survivors. It's no help to them, and we deprive ourselves of their hard won wisdom and compassion.

      @@SoftWhiteUnderbelly That's really strange to me, Mark. I have never had that impression of you, not even a little bit. But we both know that individuals often project, and that's in addition to their perceptions being colored by their own experiences. The reality is, NONE of these people (women who've endured trauma especially) would open up to you if you were stern or uncaring. They'd skim the surface, say what they think you want to hear, get paid, and be on their way. The emotional vulnerability you elicit in your interviews is proof positive of who you really are and what you're trying to achieve. Anyone who claims otherwise has their head up their ass, to put it plainly. And just for the record, I have 2 years clean from heroin on February 8th, after using for 10 years. So I can relate to these stories. When I say "Thank you, Mark," it truly does come from the heart. Btw, fellow Chicagoan here! Be safe. Continue to be kind and open-minded.

    It’s really incredible how often people comment on subjects like Maddie in Mark’s videos and are so amazed at how intelligent, well-spoken, and/or articulate they are. I’m guilty of it, too, but really, it’s that we’ve been living under this assumption that people who live life on the fringes, ie sex workers, addicts, criminals, must NOT be smart or they wouldn’t be in these situations. The truth is that we have thousands and thousands-maybe even millions- of broken, abused, thrown away people walking amongst us who we try to ignore even exist bc it makes us too uncomfortable. Watching this channel is a crucial exercise in developing empathy and I think the world is made better because of it. Kudos, Mark. Huge fan.

    Get a legitimate advocate to provide you with a referral to a credible, kick ass, cause-driven, social Justice litigator and go after the perpetrators criminally (some jurisdictions in the US allow for financial compensation in criminal matters as well) and the child protection system/workers/treatment providers civilly… if you don’t want the $ for yourself, set up a foundation.
    At the very least, you are owed justice. ✌️

      Yes, but you can pretty much count them on one hand. While sexwork absolutely is a legitimate last resort profession, the problem is that you pretty much can't become a famous pornstar without actually enjoying the repeated, emotionless sex, and that is something no woman enjoys unless she's mentally broken.
      Moreover, the industry is absolutely horrendous, the abuse would be completely unacceptable literally anywhere else. It's to the point where even the illegal high-end escort industry is less abusive. Porn agents are, without exception, exploitative scumbags.
      The solution, however, is NOT to stigmatize the pornstars further, the solution is to recognize the profession's last resort nature, and to stop glorifying it. The industry also needs strong regulations to weed the abusers out.

    While it’s a testament to her strength that she has not turned to drugs to channel the traumatic pain of her past, the truth is there are many outlets for pain including volatile and turbulent relationships, seeking out partners that are not only emotionally unavailable but also completely unable to meet her needs or value her. Full healing would require her to better understand this history of codependency/love addiction as well. I absolutely wish this recovery for her, she is an amazingly powerful, intelligent woman with an incredible warriors spirit. She deserves to heal, be at peace and live a beautiful life, at only 24 years old she has many more years to live and i truly hope those ahead are kinder to her.❤️

    This interview blew me away. I’ve been a foster care caseworker for 9 years and I have been blessed with the opportunity to shine a light on all the things she spoke about. I’ve spent so much of my career empowering my clients to seek safety and to feel comfortable in using their own voices to not only speak for themselves but also for those who are unable to.
    My mantras for my career are to empower my clients to become the best versions of themselves and to use my voice to advocate for those are unable to do so for themselves. Everything she spoke of is a reality. I can’t tell you how many foster parents I’ve seen treat kids like this or use the money for everything except taking care of the kids.
    I do my best every day to get my clients out foster homes like the ones she spoke of but unfortunately the system is so broken. A lot of times I find that regardless of how hard I try to promote positive change in these kids lives and the system over all so much of this is out of my hands. It’s makes me so sad. I can only hope that in the future enough people in my position receive the proper mental health care opportunities and fair compensation which will enable them to work harder to advocate for these kids. It truly breaks my heart.
