#ParisHilton #Congress #Politics
I dealt many years of abuse of these facilities. I wish they would get shut down. Still haunts my Over 8 years later
Thank you Paris for the courage and bravery to speak about this and to be the voice for others that can not be heard.
Good for her, good job Paris
She is honest and we all deserve to see our abusers inprisoned
The authorities are abusive. This does need investigating more at other facilities. Good for you Paris.
She's right. This system has been broken for decades.
I agree, most of our public services are well behind our modern times. We have changed as a society, tremendously. The landscape is not the same as it was 25 years ago when Paris Hilton was enrolled in any of her 4 programs...and is now in charge of retooling it.
Thank you, Paris.
Why do I only see these talking heads instead of the actual testimony?
script reading too...survivors dont need to write it down..its in them.
She has empathy God bless her.
Love you Paris, thank you for all your hard work
Not a Paris fan, but Im from the land of "kids for cash", had to send my own son to the country to protect him from that system.
Hold' on! It's done!
The lady broadcaster’s last comment seemed unnecessarily shady. My gosh, way to miss the point
Why was Paris in these places? 😮
She was kind of wild back then. Her parents put her in a facility so she had a chance to see what goes on first hand.
@@SaHayes-it2uw She was in 4. And no, she was not a foster kid, and no they were not foster homes.
Again how does this happen w/o her parents knowing? How does this not happen to her sister? Kim-K learned everything from Paris-H
They lied to the parents kept the kids drugged and lied that the kids were out of control and these parents believed the staff and authorities they also paid big money and thought that the facility was equipped severe but no one pays so much money and think their kid is abused. They use some bs thing telling the parents the kid will lie to leave the strict facility...so the teen is hopeless and helpless...to me it's easy to see
What medical and health health services??
Still remember the movie “1 Night in Paris” from my college days. She was an amazing actress. By far her best work.
Sicko! Grow up . This is about children .
Good job paris 👏👏👏
One night in DC
Paris Hilton?..😮
what would americans be of their youths, liars?
Wait. Is this a video game?
why didn't her RICH
PARENTS sue the facilities!??
" paris was SA, & ABUSED....."
her story is very odd 🤔 😐😮
The old case of prove it...
They gone talk about everything except what's important
RUSSIA
😂 anything for media attention lol
Bet Swift can't advocate 😂😂 even do charity work

Save your money and don't invest in Crypto that's How😂😂😂😂
Ask Trump.. he's an expert on the subject 💙
@shondrawhite9317 Still living rent free in your head I see 😆 🤣 😂
South Park was right 😅
😂😂😂she was a wild child. Parents were desperate, did not know what to do with her. Does she not remember her ways ?😢😂😂
It doesn't justify how abusive the facility is. No one deserves that!!!
You don’t know her , stop making assumptions !
@@girlwiththecurlyfro2552 To be fair, you also don't know the people that worked with her and others at these programs...
@@AtlantisLeadershipAcademy I never said I did know her . I just commented how people lack empathy and brain cells to make assumptions about people they don’t even know . Regardless if Paris was a “wild child” like the comment stated above , no child deserves to be mistreated in a treatment center . Paris is using her platform to raise awareness. What is @fatimateresa19 doing with her free time?
CNN is the only reason i am voting Trump for 2024.............
two words: Jeffrey Epstein. Buddy of Trump.
@@Anonymous1038HI You must be a Bill Clinton supporter..............
Well,you'ree a kid,they can do whatever they like.
You don't have rights like adults do.
What an awful comment. That's not an excuse to treat someone inhumanely.
I desperately hope that you do not have children...welfare check would be in order.. sadly
I would argue they do have rights
Constitution says nothing about this
PLEASE do not breed... 🙏🏻
Doesn't she know we're to busy sending financial aid to other countries and supporting migrants that aren't legal here just put this on the to do list and move on already
Thanks for the insight, comrade!
Lies..just do a search and pull up the documentary born rich and she is not looking abused at all, if shopping sprees on mommy and daddy's dime is abuse the woe is the poor little rich girl boohoo😂
Sounds like Taylor Swift being picked on.
@@VoiceofReason6 In no way standing up for Provo Canyon, I know nothing about them. Just seeing that they were in operation for over 50 years...there are no documented success stories? People that changed their lives around? No positive impact for anyone? Juts 5+ decades of straight abuse...doesn't seem reasonable...
She is flying private all around the world and her Mom is wrapping up an episode of Housewives of Beverly Hills...seems like a success story so far.
