Until I started watching your videos I thought sexual abuse in children was a rarity. I CANNOT believe how prevalent it is...I am 68 years old with 2 beautiful daughters and was so naive ...I was so lucky that nothing happened to them. God Bless this couple.... and Mark I still say you are a Saint.
The stats for sexual abuse are 1 in 4 women have been sexually abused and 1 in 6 men have been sexually abused. That is a whole lot of people.
We need to change the laws for maximum sentences for child abusers. They cause so much damage.
There is a bit of confirmation bias as well. The people being interviewed are generally troubled people ergo troubled pasts.
Sexual abuse is a common occurrence. It happens often in families and it's not reported on if children tell another adult. Because they either don't believe the child, from guilt, or embarrassment. It's awful. A lot of people here interviewed end up getting abused physically too.
As for this couple, I think they have great dreams. Not exactly realistic, but it's great that they have hope. The trauma of sexually abused victims often manifests itself into drug abuse and violence. It's sad. This girl's only protection is her boyfriend. I hope these two can get back on their feet with help from the state (ideally therapy and state programs), but they sadly falk through the cracks.
@@beebee2781 the years i spent in AA I've heard multiple stories of sexual abuses. Men and women.
Yes, and it is delusional of people to think that it is the "cabal" or whatever that is primarily doing this, it is primarily FAMILY MEMBERS or people close to the family that is the mass majority of the cases, it doesn't need to be some rich overlord importing underage girls, simply a family member or baby sitter, etc,etc. People always watch out for strangers but it is family that you need to watch out for.
I’m from Clarendon Arkansas and I personally know Patricia she is a sweet soul I haven’t seen her in years I’m glad to see she’s still here🤞🏽❤️
Driven through numerous times. One of my all time fave places. So beautiful, but so much going on behind the doors.
I hope they find their way back to their friends and what family they have that cares about them😔
You knew her but at no point did you ever help her threw her abuse . As a community we knew what was going on even in LA shit like that don't fly. Fuck you
@@Villa125 Well that was rude and uncalled for.
@@Villa125 thats because there was NO ABUSE!!! Almost all of her story is lies. She wasnt molested she wasnt rapped she has no son. She has 1 daughter whos 2 and my husband and i have her. My husband is her brother.
That man walked for 5 months cross country to meet his mom. These 2 have serious integrity. You can't teach that.
Yup!
I know! I was shocked. I would have given up, and I rarely do. AND when I was in my early 20s, I would walk miles and miles when I didn't have a ride for myself through heat and cold in the Northeast. That is one headstrong individual!!!
I don't think he can accurately track 5 linear months lol was probably 2 streets over.... "yeah, I walked 4 months......STRAIGHT!
She left her kid for him
Leaving kids behind and doing drugs and have other people paying for you; yeah, let's all do that.
Mark, you might be interested to know; that watching
one hour of your content counts as an hour meeting
comparable to an AA meeting, in my intensive
outpatient treatment. So your helping addicts in so many ways, very grateful for this and you. Much appreciated, l'Il be signing up for your patreon.
Wonderful! That's great
Soft White Underbelly is my recovery! 100% 😁 Been clean for 6 years
I agree with you. If you want to shoot dope, get F***Ked up, do any kind of dope you won't when you watch Mark's channel
This is wonderful!!!!
I didn't know that, thank you! I listen to his videos every night before I go to sleep. I'm so grateful to be able to hear others stories and triumphs regardless of size. I hope everyone that is struggling with addictions seek help and find sobriety. To those we have lost may you rest in peace. ❤️❤️❤️
It was good to see this couple smile a bit. They look like sweet people, who've been dealt alot of heartbreak. I wish the best for them.
I was just about to wish them the same as well
Thank you, for the comment ✌🏼
M
Poor girl, so heartbreaking just horrible.
Its all lies. Only truth is she has medical issues and has a 2 yr old daughter we raise.
@@aprayerinheaven Whatttttttt?
There is such a childlike vulnerability and sweetness in these two. These precious souls absolutely break my heart. I've never wanted to hug someone through the phone as much as her.
take them home then
She left her kid to be with him
That momentary flash of pride when she answered "yes" to finishing high school 🥲
Honor Student too.....that was cute
@@terywetherlow7970 Yes, but what she said after that was horrible! That's a new story I hadn't yet heard on this channel. )":
That warmed y heart
Okay but "geret" is killing me
@The Ministry of Truth KMK I edited it literally within a minute of posting this haha you're quick!
When I hear this woman speak, I hear a hurt child. I’m so sorry you were let down, and I hope you & your husband both get everything y’all deserve in life.
i’m glad they have eachother, you can tell so badly she’s been needing to talk to someone and just vent all of this
This couple reminds me of my ex husband and I. We were on the streets together for a few years when we were young (like 20 years ago now) and it was SO hard to dig our way out. Once you find yourself on the streets, it's just not easy to fix your situation. I try to always remember those days and how hard it is for others in that situation, but it's also definitely possible to get out. Wishing this couple the best in their life.
These folks don't want to change. Still keep excuses very close in their conversations.
@@lilmule9576ur wack
@@amberadams2935 full of excuses, this stuff happens to a lot of people and still are productive in society. The excuses are bullshit. Look at this woman, she is over weight, doesn't go hungry. First time in human history that poor people are fat. Excuses need to stop.
@@lilmule9576 Grouch
Thank you for explaining this. And thank you for purposely remembering so you can empathize with those in it and teach the ones who don't understand.
I'm glad they have eachother, I couldn't imagine them both being alone on those streets...
It's always better to be with someone, even though you wish that they didn't have to be in that situation with you.
@@ijustrealllylikecats yes your right, everyone needs someone to have their back, keep them company etc especially when homeless....personally I don't think either of these would cope so well alone.
Man the world so cold
@@arieanalaird641 just the people on it unfortunately but thankfully their are good people too...
"I'm not smart anymore"... girl, yes you are. You're more than you give yourself credit for.
No she was right
@@kimmacdougal-srink5141 So shitty of you.
She is smart in all the important ways. She's got a pure good heart ❤️ strong morals
@@1976mcfarlane yes I agree, she was smart enough to get them both out of the bad situation with a strange man.
she has greatly reduced blood circulation to her brain which partly explains her slower manner of speech...she actually speaks quite well and is easy to understand...plus she completed high school...eventually they will get somewhere that feels like home to them.
The sadness and depression exudes from this couple. Im concerned about her bruises and looks like she has on a hospital band. 🥺😔. God wrap them in your loving arms and help them find their way 🙏🏼
Diabetics bruise easily. Takes them longer to heal, especially issues with their feet. She talked about her blood sugar bottoming out all the time from them not having food. Can't tell you how many times my dad held my moms mouth open while I poured syrup or something like that in it or put a glucose tablet under tongue to bring her back to consciousness. She went to the hospital A LOT!! My mom just wouldn't eat enough. Some of her medicines made her have no appetite. My mom was also the first women at UTMB Galveston,Tx to have a ❤ transplant. (She was also the 1st woman to have a heart& a kidney transplant (8yrs after the heart) she actually passed away when I was 18, the same age as the girl in this video. My parents were divorced, on paper only so the state would pay for her 1,000's of $ in meds to keep her alive, so at 18 I was my mother's guardian and had to make the decision to turn the machines off. So when she got emotional about her mom I could relate.
The sadness that exudes from these 2 just is heartbreaking. Both seem to have been broken people born from broken people. Sadness truly is an affliction of the heart, and they touched mine. Seems like getting out of Arkansas was a step towards healing. I do pray and hope that they get the life experience they desire and can move towards some closure and stability.
Yup...patricias portrait is soooo downhearted.😥
Its all lies. They had a home and he had a job. They left it all behind to do this. She wasnt abused sexually. She does have medical issues and has a 2 yr old daughter we raise, her brother and i. She has no son either.
@@aprayerinheaven Patricia is lucky to have family that helps her with her children instead of letting them go into the foster system. Whether or not she and Sam have made all the right choices is not my place to make judgement. When watching any of the Soft White interviews , i watch knowing that not everyone is completely honest. I dont know them nor do i know you, but i can understand your anger. I am grateful that even if you disagree with their life choices that you are there for them in some respect. I dont believe mothers always want to have to choose to abandon their children. perhaps she knew she wouldnt be a good mom in the current situations or places. Id like to think if they picked up and left how you say they did, that they did it for a reason. She is lucky to have you in her life, may god bless you and your family.
my heart goes out to this couple they are hurting emotionally this is the damage adults do to children when they abuse them they leave them lost I hope they both can find the right path
There was no abuse no molestation no rape no son at 12. She does however have medical issues and a 2 yr old daughter my husband and i r raising. My husband is her brother. Almost everything was a lie. They had a home and him a job they walked away from.
May these two find a way out of homelessness. They especially touched my heart and I wish them nothing but the best. Thanks for all you do, Mark
They did they had a home and he had a job they walked away from. We have their bio daughter she is two and there is no other child no son.
@@aprayerinheaven wow, really? It was a lie?
Her mother shouldn't just have tried to keep her father from molesting her, she should have left and called CPS on him! ( Although maybe part of her family being cops has something to do with why she couldn't.)
She knows law enforcement! Called them crooked like two minutes in. 😏
small town law enforcement, she did say her mom tried to stop him, but i can’t imagine the abuse the mother got as well
If it happened for 14 years I don’t think she did much of keeping it from happening...
Cps is often just as crooked...same with many of the judges.
Or just lawfully shot him in self defense.
She was relieved after her dad died. The main person who should have protected and cared for her was the villain that hurt her. She forgives him.
Their depression has them in somewhat of a catatonic state it seems. I suffer with major depressive disorder myself, unfortunately, so I know how they feel. Years back I struggled with really bad substance abuse addiction (for nearly half my life) and I subjected myself to so much hell, just to get my next fix each day. I wasn’t living. I was simply existing…barely. I was in and out of jails, rehabs, shelters, detoxes, halfway homes, psych wards, etc. etc .. and my addiction resulted in me becoming homeless numerous times. All together I spent a couple years on the streets as a slave to my addiction. I ended up sleeping on the streets and subways all over NY.. I was homeless in Harlem, Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, and Long Island.. and I chose the absolute worst, most ghetto, crime riddled areas to settle in because that’s where the drugs were. Being homeless is the absolute worst man.. it is sooo fu€k!ng depressing and you feel incredibly hopeless and alone. Spent many nights starving, shivering all night long in the dead of winter. Freezing cold, hungry, contemplating ending my life very often. Around the time I finally got clean my eldest brother took his own life, which had me closer than ever to ending mine. Thankfully I got my life together almost 5 years ago now and have been clean and I have a roof over my head. I still suffer with really severe depression, but the drugs and homelessness magnified my depression A LOT! I emphasize with this couple a whole lot. I’m so glad they don’t have drug addictions to feed on top of being homeless, cuz believe me, it makes things SO MUCH WORSE. I’m quite certain they suffer with some mental health issues though. The poor girl has been through hell and back having to grow up in such a broken home with her sick predator of a father and being abused by the other dude who she considered to be like a brother. It’s so heartbreaking and it blows my mind how much evil exists all around us. But yeah, sorry for the lengthy comment. Their sadness and sense of hopelessness is just so palpable. I hope they find some light in their lives which has been dark for so long.
It always starts with childhood trauma which often leads to drug use which leads to homelessness. It's a horrific cycle that continues.
They had a place
Having a happy and healthy childhood in a happy and healthy family is priceless !!!!!!
And a Rarity!!!!!
That's where it starts!
This channel honestly gives you so much perspective, what you are born into is honestly a roll of the dice. You don't get to choose what or where you're born. I was lucky to be born into a staple family in a relatively safe small town in New Zealand, i didn't grow up wealthy or poor, but i have a family that love me with every fibre of their being. I will never ever take that for granted.
Oh I’ve always wanted to visit New Zealand. It looks like a beautiful country. Do you still live there?
@@michellehitt1976 sure do, it's very beautiful and full of laid back people. Before covid the country had a thriving tourist industry, and i've met so many amazing people from all different cultures because of it
when this Lady spoke about her Mum I could feel a tear ever so near
I can see Sam being a truck driver (Assuming he is a good driver). Patricia would be his rider. They would be able to travel the USA and make plenty of money to support themselves. Truck drivers are in high demand.
Boom! Problems solved 💵🇺🇸🤯🚛
money doesn’t fix mental issues
@@allysonmarie3642 it doesn’t but you have to find solutions to fix your life, not everything will work but you have to try regardless. i think him getting a cdl is a great thing especially if you have no other experience or qualifications
Of course he would need to apply for a CDL and most companies will provide it given he goes to their school and go OTR with an instructor for a few months (meaning she would not be able to go unfortunately leaving her by herself). Unless he does straight truck only requiring a regular L's. Which usually smaller llc companies do. It will be rough to sleep in a box truck with 2 ppl (I've done it with my husband for a year when we went thru a rough time) but it can be done.
i promise you it isn't always that simple.
@@ock.tober666 didn't say it was simple. Life is hard. Life isn't fair. It's not in people's best interest to play victim your whole life. Even if someone got dealt bad cards in life people should take responsibility of THEIR situation. They're are opportunities out there.
How can I help? There is so much of the story that resonated with me. I grew up in Arkansas actually near Clarendon and now live in NYC. If Patricia ever did quiz bowl (she said she was a honor student) we may have actually met at some point. I'm also familiar with upstate New York and how cold it gets so people in the comments probably don't recognize how impressive it is that Sam walked there during winter. The snow and cold is like no other. I hope they do get a chance to visit all the places their hearts desire.
You’re so sweet. You’re comment was very nice. 💜
Yes! Especially in central NY where the lake effect weather is brutal.
@Jilliana what do u mean?
My god you can literally feel her pain through the screen. Patricia you have had many, many lifetimes of trauma, more then any one person should endure. You are definitely one of the strongest people I have ever learned of. I hope one day soon your path leads you down easier times, god knows you are deserving and that you have more then paid life's dues. Good luck, you will forever be in my thoughts.
When the severity of trauma begins at such a young age; Patricia being molested by her father, having a child while still a child herself plus in my opinion, I suspect she endured a lot more abuse not mentioned here by her father. It causes a person to stop emotionally maturing therefore she is desperate need of specialized help to grow and find herself as an adult now. Thankfully Sam is able to watch over her fragile state. I pray they both find and receive everything they’re seeking in this life ❤️🙏💪
Im married to her brother. She lied alot. She did not have a child at 12. She had one child and we have adopted her after we got her from dhs when dhs took her. They had a job and home they up and walked away from. She does have fam she talks to. Her biggest regret shld of been walking away from our daughter. They have had fam try n help and have helped and they bite us everytime. I got them housing and they refused it and sam called me a B!TCH. We tried to get him to hold our daughter and she was placed n his arms and he tossed her back to us (his own bio daughter).
@@aprayerinheaven why should we believe you over them? its obvious you have family issues maybe you are mad that they are exposing things on youtube and making all these comments to make your family look better or maybe they made up this elaborate story.
@@idorus it doesnt make my family look bad. Her ex bf isnt my family. Her father isnt my family. Nothing she says wld make me mad as it has nothing to do with me and my kids or my husband as her dad isnt his dad. All thats mute. We r not mad or upset at her. We r worried for her safety at this point. Why r u so quick to believe just bc it said? Lots of people are homeless bc they cant work or lost their job etc.. The list goes on. They CHOSE the life their in right now. They had a house he had a job. He wasnt fired it wasnt that he cldnt find work. Lets not forget while their lying and she says her regret was an ex boyfriend they both have a daughter im raising. Her regret shld have been walking away from her daughter. Bc altho we adopted her we still tried to let them b part of her life. I even send pics as she grows and update them even tho they NEVER ask about her or even check on her. Even this past week. There isnt ANYTHING to expose!! Their faking their lives for monetary gain and if ppl want to fall for that thats on them. Sucks there r true ppl needing help who cant get it and these two take away from those who really needed it and have real stories.
@@aprayerinheaven Interesting, I don't know. I think I believe you. But there are 2 sides to every story so I'm not completely sure.
@@bradsully6620 some is true like she did have a bf kick her n the head (but her issues r not bc if that) she does have health issues and she does have 1 child a daughter who is 2 yrs old. If we knit pick the whole thing like some have she is indian she i assume is homeless now. My husband said she was honor roll but in special ed not regular classes. Im unsure the rest that i hwvent pretty much hit on. Oh and we dont like sam but not for reasons she stated.
All these people with brain injuries ( football injury for him, kicked in head for her…) it explains a lot about how so many homeless people are surviving on low execution function ..sometimes it’s childhood trauma that starts the spiral, but many other times it’s brain injury, but always subsequent head injuries and cognitive decline is the result. Truly heartbreaking. Recently read a statistic that over 70% of homeless males have at least one TBI.
I worked as a case manager for homeless people who were in and out of jail in San Diego and I would say 95% my clients had either a TBI, schizophrenia or both. I really wish more would be done with the knowledge in California but the state refuses to help anyone on the streets because it would infringe on their "freedom." So backwards (I live in SF now).
She wasnt kicked in the head. Her issues are from birth. Her heart is why. She stopped breathing and had lack of oxygen for to long. Childrens hospital has seen her since birth. Bc her heart issue is a pediatric issue only. Im married to her brother and we have theie daughter. We adopted her. They had a home and him a job they walked away from.
I have low executive functioning due to ADHD and I wonder how many people in the homeless population have it and aren’t diagnosed since it predisposes you to a higher risk of dropping out of school and makes you VERY susceptible to addiction.
@@aprayerinheaven Sorry if this is too invasive but do you know if the stuff she said about her childhood accurate?
@@sludg3fact0ry she wasnt rapped at any time n her life. She wasnt molested by her father unless it was when she was grown. My husband lived with them till he was like 30 she was 15 by then. She never has a son or baby befire 2 yrs agi. 11 2019 our daughter was born. She was kicked n the head by a bf when she was a teenager but thats not her brain issues. She had lack of oxygen as a infant bc of her heart issue and it left her with a child like mind.
This young lady is so precious! Her faith even in brokenness is so amazing! Praying for this couple.
I really really like her. She's got star quality but extremely humble. There is something special about her and I pray that she is able to start singing and show off her talents.
Yeah right!!! 😂
Well I see it, maybe you don't.

@@wesleyalan9179 I respect comments like Kim’s that are being honest instead of those who can’t leave an honest comment. I guarantee you thought a lot of what the weak society considers “mean comments” but you’re too chicken crap to leave them. Instead you, like the rest of the lemmings, just say what everyone else in the comments are saying. Telling people what they want to hear helps no one.
Breaks my heart. I really hope this couple finds their way
Bless her heart. Your mom should have gotten you out of that situation. You deserved good parents. I’m so sorry you didn’t have either. God bless you.
Thank you for sharing your story. I wish the best for you all. Safe travels, blessings and love!
It’s crazy how you just never know what people have gone through and where they come from. Stay blessed folks.
my heart breaks for her.. getting pregnant at 12 i can’t imagine 💔
She never got pg at 12. She does have a 2 yr old her brother and i r raising and adopted.
@@aprayerinheaven .. she literally said she got pregnant at 12?🤷♀️
@@MrsHouseTakeNewVegas she never got pregnant at 12. I am married to her brother. She has one child a daughter who is 2 and special needs and requires around the clock care. This is the ONLY child she has ever had. She was born at 28 weeks 1lb 11 oz. She was adopted by us.

This couple’s strength and courage gives me some hope that maybe I won’t be alone for the rest of my life
Thank you for what you're doing here Mark... Fantastic content.
This is possibly the most difficult interview I've watched yet....I feel for this couple. Thankfully they have and found each other to keep safe and loved.
There so young and been through soooo much, it breaks my heart
What she’s been through sounds absolutely horrible. I can’t even imagine.
She did not go through any of that
@@aprayerinheaven what are you even on???
@@rocioolivera1258 she is my sister n law ik for a fact the majority of the interview were lies. Thats what im on!!!!
The trauma these two have is so sad . I pray they can overcome this .
I want to wrap them both in a warm hug. I’m so sorry for the long hard road you’ve had. Stay safe, be good to each other.
1:57 in and I'm amazed at all the things that girl went through as a little girl. *all the moments I waited for him to hug her, grab her hand or comfort her in some way😔😢
He's very young... Maybe the reason he can't be all the man she needs, yet
@@junglegirl5174 ya, your right. I can't even remember how old they said they were. I was so saddened by their stories.
@@junglegirl5174
He’s 26 years old. If he hasn’t learned how to comfort his wife by now with a touch of his hand, chances are good he doesn’t feel comfortable doing so.
From experience of feeling uncomfortable in situations because of my past experiences and parents not being loving whatsoever, and not knowing what to do, it might be because he never received it so doesn't understand what to do. I will get so much anxiety trying to figure out what to do . Should I hug them? should I give them space? Should I wait? I'll just stand and try to wait for their cues while I have anxiety the whole time that I am not doing the right thing and no matter what I do will be wrong. I know he isn't the same as me nor has same issues as me, but I thought maybe a different perspective might help. Or maybe he's just a dick I have met those type of people too.
@@-_oOtianaOo_-
He seems detached from her emotionally. When she was relating what her father did to her, he (her husband) didn’t even look at her let alone offer her any comfort. Something is off with him and it could well be that nobody cared when he cried. I don’t know, I’m not a psychologist but it’s interesting.
They need each other to survive out there I get the feeling. I hope they find a easier more comfortable way of getting thru life. Respect and honesty- go along ways
The way she smiled when mentioning she was an honor student.
I just explored Arkansas for a week a couple months ago. That State has TONNES of people like this. It's the saddest place I've been in this country by far
I've live in Arkansas. There are a lot of people like this here. We have programs to help. It's not enough. Lots of wealth inequality. Lots of poverty.
Thanks for letting us know. Hopefully, I'll never return to that sweat zone area of the county, but if I do, I'll skip the sightseeing there.
@@sherrylienable holy shit, condescending much?
I live in Arkansas. I have lived here most of my life. It is generational poverty that has bred and continues to breed this. Meth is a huge issue. Thank God these young people are not on that. But there is a large majority of people that are poor, uneducated and these are the result of that. I see it everyday here as a Substance Abuse Counselor. Heartbreaking stories. What always impresses me though is the continues faith in God. There is hope for each of them.
I hope you both have great travels! I appreciate the interview. I feel blessed knowing you both are here on this earth. Thank you so much for sharing your story. Big hugs!
This interview leaves me breathless. Patricia is so very vulnerable.
These poor poor poor babies. I hope they find some light in their life.
I wish this couple ALL the love in the world 😘. Peace love and light to them from Kansas ✌️💞🌞🌻
Makes me sad listening. Why do people litterally break anothers spirt so badly? I pray god blesses this couple with the stability that they seem to have never had. I pray they find it in one another. Living a stable life isnt so bad ❤. There is peace in it.
I guess I don’t understand the necessity to travel and spend what money you do get on Greyhound tickets when she could have her shower and a bed with her disability check. I’m sure she would qualify for other assistance if they stayed in one place long enough?
This couple is young and yet they have experienced so much pain, once again in their childhood. How to build on a foundation of abuse.
In France, child abuse is increasing. It is appalling. Despite their dramatic past, Sam and Patricia know the true values of honesty and respect.
Respect, a word that comes up often in these videos.
"What would you guys say is the most important lesson you've learned in your lives?" Enormously precious 💖 *Honesty Respect*... then they both kinda like the other ones' answer. With that, you've got everything to do whatever you put your minds to. *hugs* 😎
Clarendon Arkansas is an hour from Little Rock Arkansas, I’m from Clarendon Arkansas and I can personally say she was one of the sweetest people when I was younger, I haven’t heard or seen her in so long, I’m glad to see she’s alive and well
God Bless them! I feel the sadness just pour out of them.
Thank you Mark! You are a true good man. ❤️
When I feel down
Particularly around Christmas I just look at your videos and feel OK
My problems are nothing compared to your stories
That's exactly what I feel like after watching all these videos Nothing on my life can compare to any of these although I've been through a lot of different problems and still daily struggle with life and finances and living on ssd is rather crazy and rough especially around the middle to end of the month waiting for the next check to be in the checking its a day to day struggle
@@shelleymitchell8834
Don't look at life as a drag but rather each day makes you stronger
I was told one day by an old man that life is like a library
A book alone will fall down but if you add to your shelf it will stand
I need a drink after watching this
This one really touched me......what a beautiful couple and kind human beings....my heart bleeds for Patricia
These two seem like real genuine people, and I hope they get nothing but good things coming to them, I hope they are happy and doing good.
Sad stuff man 😔 God bless them 🙏
I believe they need a social worker, psychiatrist, and therapist to help them set and achieve Realistic goals and live life to the fullest! I truly believe they could do it❤❤❤ Best Wishes
Yes. They definitely need some help with that. They're very immature for their ages.
They had that help. They had a job a home they walked away from. She had a counselor amd psychiatry and social worker and everything. When dhs got involved they tried helping them till our daughter was 5 mo old. Dhs took her and she called her brother who is my husband. Dhs gave the baby to us whom we have sense adopted. They had family help them and try to help. They were unappreciative and did this.
@@aprayerinheaven Wow I knew they had some kind of help! I have no patience for
Poor mouthing adults
You can see her heart through the words she speak. Praying they have big blessings come their way very soon ❤️❤️
She seems so sweet. She’s endured so much trauma. They seem like a nice couple. I pray that they get off the streets soon. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Great interview. Such sweet tormented souls. Hopefully they can find their way in life but it seems they will need some structure or assistance.
People with disabilities need more protection man. This girl is so vulnerable and needs help.
she needs to let go of her past when referring to her ex bf's. Its over & ur with ur husband release all that and enjoy your time with your husband. U can c it makes him uncomfortable when she brings up her ex bf. Wish them all the best and hope they can find a more stable way of living. All the best.
Maybe she meant her biggest regret was going back to her ex to have her head kicked in and to have been left with brain damage as a consequence.
Mark you’re a blessing to a lot of people🙏🏾👍🏾☝🏾💯
Patricia and Sam, I wish I could hug you and tell you everything is going to be ok. Hope you enjoy your travels and make beautiful memories ❤️
God, this is so heartbreaking. They are both so sweet and wounded. I pray that they’ll make it.
A very sweet and sad couple God bless both of you and keep you protected while you travel and find yourselves ❤️❤️
We can all learn from this couple, god bless y’all.
Learn? To lie? Im married to her brother and we r raising their biological daughter. She has no son wasnt molested wasnt rapped and her mind isnt what it is because she was kicked n the head. Her minds been this was due to lack of oxygen when she was a baby because of her heart issues. These two had a home and he had a job they chose to walk away from. They havent been traveling nor has he alone. They been in Dewitt Arkansas in their own place and job for a year.
@@aprayerinheaven wow 😮
We can learn what not to do at least.
@@aprayerinheaven SWU should highlight this comment
So sorry to hear about the horrific childhood abuse.
Can I suggest something? If you use your disability income for some kind of housing, you can have a bed & a shower & a roof over your head. Sam might need to get some type of a job.
It's not safe or healthy for your heart to be living on the streets.
Check out a social service office to try to get housing, before something bad happens to your heart from traveling & living on the streets.
Good luck! Be safe! Hope it all works out for you.
Best wishes to you both ❤
More of this, please. Now this is where I have compassion, these people are victims in every sense of the word. I hope they can find a better life, somehow.
My heart goes out to Patricia going through 2 pregnancies before she was old enough. I pray for Sam and Patricia that they find Peace.
I don't mean to be rude but how can a man not work, leech off of a disabled girls disability money and make them both homeless
I was thinking the same thing
That ia why we (her family) have issues with him. Her family got him a job got them a home. They walked away from it all to do this. But until this past yr he never worked and took all her money. We have their 2 yr old daughter there is no son she never had a child other than the baby girl we are raising.
@@aprayerinheaven that's horrible, sorry to hear that 😞
@@aprayerinheaven so the story she told about having a baby at 11 was embellished?
@@AVG_81 she said 12 and she never had a son or a baby till 2019. Our daughter is 2 yrs old and that is the only child she ever had
Dont go North now.. Im in Maine and nights are in the low 20's..and its only gonna get colder..
Head South East and then head up in a few months after it warms up.
Good luck to you both.
I live in Maine too. From Portland area, live in the Mid coast region on the water now
Videos like this always makes me appreciate my parents so much. I have a great support system. Maybe if this couple got the support when they so desperately needed it, their lives would be alot different now
okay I'm an old school kinda guy ( 55 today ) and I tend to keep things to myself, don't really cry or show my weaker side, but when this young Gal started to talk about her mother passing away and started to cry, that hit my heart like a ton of bricks and I instantly wanted to do something. Not just her but other's too so I'm going to check into that starting today.
You are beautiful humans. Nothing that happened to you as a child was your fault. It just happened. You do not have to harbor that shame. Ever. I hope for peace and for a society that builds you up, not tears you down for all of you in the future. My story isn’t great either but I didn’t let it beat me. With hard work and introspection you can beat this. You just have to believe in yourselves and never give up. Thank you for sharing your story. I hear you. I see you. I love you🤍
Ohh Mark, you truly are incredible ❤️
Im from Hot Springs Arkansas, I see so much of this. So sad to see more and more people homeless around here. This lady seems to be so sweet.Hard life is what she knows and its horrible. I pray for these kids.Hopefully they can find some stability, and heal from their past.
She didnt have that kind of past. She also only has one child a girl we adopted. She is 2 yrs old.
Wish them the best. Life isn't fair to all of us.
I pray for this lost couple, God bless them and keep them
They should separate d then get back together it’s easier to say outside looking in but that’s what’s always best best of luck💪🏾🙏❤️
Amen to that prayer.
She’s already beating the oddds 28 days vs 28 years glory be ❤️
I'm so glad they have each other. That beautiful young woman carries a burden NO ONE should...These kinds of traumas are so heavy that drug use makes sense...Without proper support or mental health care? It takes a LOT to have any good quality of life without something to take the edge off...I'll never judge a person on the street (or at all) because you never know what their story is. May they find some peace from life's wounds ❤️
The People who should be there to protect us sometimes hurt us the most. Thank you for helping Patricia and Sam. I wish I could help them both...
These poor people the child hood tramua that happened to them it shows now that there grown so lost in deppression and pain 🙏thanks for doing these wonderful videos mark it shows the world whats really going on
Such a very, very sad couple. She said she wanted a shower and a bed. That sounds so simple, But unattainable for this couple. I hope they find some happiness in their lives. And, have safe travels, if that is what they want to continue doing.
I love these two. GOOD LUCK! Safe travels
They both seem so sad 😔 I just wanted to hug Patricia when she cried about the abuse 💔 God bless her sweet soul.
I wonder if Patricia baby that she had at 12 is her father's. 🤔 Her mom's side hates him because of her having a child at 12 by him.
She said it was
She referred to a 2nd individual she called her ‘brother figure’, who she said got her pregnant.
Their depression is palpable. 😢
This is such a sad interview two lost souls I wish them peace happiness and health
What a sweet couple I wish them every happiness love and protection .
It never ceases to amaze me when I check the comments and see that there are actually some 'people' out there who watch this video and say things that are judgmental, discouraging and rude. How can they not actually listen to the f****ing interview and not be profoundly moved, particularly this one? I feel like those are the exact 'people' who have ensured that someone who never had a chance will never get one. Shame on you all. Love to Patricia, Sam, Mark and everyone else who has the courage and desire to share their stories with us. I'm sorry some of us aren't worthy of you. Can't wait for my t-shirt. Love from Ohio
Thanks for keeping it real. it's very true✌
People are cruel, end of story.
Sadly, it’s just how the world works…I guess saying something nice is too much for these motherf***ers.
🗣️PLEASE, say this shit again for the shit ass people in the back (annnnd front) who don't hear this👏👏
@@thatgurljazzy8677 Oh boo freaking hoo. People are entitled to their opinion good, bad or indifferent. You don’t like it... agree to disagree and move tf on. Also coddling people and telling them what they wanna hear instead of the cold hard truth only makes their situation worse.
@@DesignzRUs1most of the comments are people not being honest themselves. Just telling people what they want to hear helps no one.
God Bless that young couple
love this channel
These stories are amazing
