Rosie you are so strong. Thank you for sharing your story & I wish you all the best.
Keep your head up Rosie
You are such a brave young lady for sharing your horrific story with us all Rosie, and here you are concerned for the welfare of others in a similar predicament. From the first moment that you started to speak here, I could sense your emotional intelligence and warmth as a person. Please keep working towards recovery and building the life that you so richly deserve ❤
Hi Rosie. You are heard and seen Mama. I’m sorry you went through this abuse and for so long. You deserved to have been protected from that monster. Thank you for speaking up now. I know you wish it would have been sooner, but I hope you realize that even now, your voice is just as powerful and it’s making a big impact. Your voice not only represents your sister, but also so many kids who have dealt with their own monster. Congrats on the apartment! Sending you a big hug! ❤️ ~Daci
When a mother tells her baby never to be alone with their dad, she knows.
Exactly...😡
It’s so wrong on the mothers end too..
Why on earth would she get with a man like that or stay with him!
@@SuperSlimshady1 Exactly..

This is why I have to watch these videos in moderation....
This broke my heart. So beautiful. So young. So smart. I sincerely wish you the best in life.
Agreed. I watched the one with Bethany right before this one but that'll be all I can get though tonight.
Exactly
Literally these mfs will have me with a house full of people it’s the Scorpio in me😅😅😅
Im hispanic, and I've talked to my family about what my cousins did to me. Its like they dont care, I suffer every day, and they get to live life like they did nothing wrong. Im so sorry for that little girl who lost her innocence. I pray you heal and are always surrounded by good people and lots of love.
And I pray that for you too precious one. 💜🌌🦋
Very typical Hispanic life
i don’t think it has anything to do with being hispanic but being coward and terrible people. i’m sorry for what happened to you!
Or they say don’t say anything we don’t want to cause problems
Deeply sorry x happened 2 me too
Her father is evil , but so is her mother for keeping her in that situation.
Her & her older sister in that situation. That’s pure evil by association
@@_blueshawty6698 Stockholm syndrome is real
Yes, the mother is evil and selfish
Everyone failed this young lady. I hope she can heal 😭.
Why women choose to be with monsters is beyond me, especially when you see attractive women who have all of the options with abusive men it makes no sense.
Rosie, I never comment on Mark's videos, but you need to hear this: You are in the middle of breaking the cycle of generations of abuse. It is hard work; it is GOOD work. You are a survivor right now, but you will thrive. Hold tight to those people who support this work, and steer wide of people who try to drag you into their own cycles of abuse (drugs, trafficking, other self-harming escapism tactics). You are worth the work. Your family is stuck in the cycle. You may forgive them in time, but your forgiveness will be for YOU, for YOUR peace, on YOUR timeline. I care so much about you, and I believe in you.
Stopping transgenerational dysfunction in our families from continuing is the most important work we can do 🙏
💯 ❤️
This cycle is painful and terrifying to face, but getting out of it is so worth it. I refuse to live the same pain of my ancestors to spite my own self. I refuse to abuse those who show me empathy because I am envious of their ability to see good. This world was made with a spot for all of us, and I will achieve all I want and need from this life and give all that falls freely from me, to others. There is no one size fits all, there is no specific timeframe; your peace is worth the work and patience of confronting your inherited pain. ♥️
Beautiful. 😊❤️
@@doyoufeelbonita❤️👏👏👏
She was right about her mother too. She was indeed a bad mother. You don't sacrifice your children for a bit of comfort. Her older sister and brother are nearly as bad. Ignoring their two sisters' repeated molestation in order to pretend there is a healthy, intact family to return to is grotesque. Rosie, you were forced to be the brave one in your own life, even as a child, and that is heartbreaking. Shed those tears; you've earned them. But don't forget that being treated so horribly has nothing to do with you and everything to do with the monster and his enablers. You preserved the kind, decent heart they treated so poorly. You can have a life full of good people like yourself, people who will treat you with the tenderness you always deserved. Be open to it. It really is waiting for you.
Undoubtedly, her mother was abused in exactly the same way! - So sick!
Rosie you have every right to speak up to family members about abuse. Even if they don't want to hear it. It's your body, and no one has a right to trespass your body! Your mother has to take responsibility for the abuse she caused you! You can love your mother, but you don't have to like her or the things she does!! I have been through abuse and learned it's not your fault. Your mother should have been so selfish!!
generational trauma runs deep especially in hispanic families:’) i hate how common these stories are. my heart aches for you rosie. i am so proud of you for speaking out despite how difficult and scary it is. im so sorry for how awful their reactions were but you are breaking the cycle of abuse and silence. this will probably not be something you can fully heal from but i pray you get pretty damn close to it. you are such a strong person for surviving this and still going, i wish you a life filled with love and good people who support you. thank you for sharing your story.
The ultimate betrayal is when a Mother does not protect her child. I am so sorry Rosie. No child should experience that. Stay strong girl.❤
And when a father does (or doesn't) do the same. Our children are the reason we are on this planet.
Blows my mind how women continually get blamed for the bad behavior of men. Many women are financially dependent or culturally/religiously taught to stay with the man no matter what. If she’s an Immigrant she may have limited resources and the daughter said in the video that she was getting abused herself. How about you place the blame where it should be; on the father. The ultimate betrayal is a parent choosing to sexually abuse their child. It is tragic that it was enabled by the mother however the abuser is responsible for his actions.
It’s not her fault he is an asshole
Horrible insight.@@ravenasana
Im so sorry Rosie this happened to you. God bless you. < 3 . I went through this very simular with my mom and dad they never protected me or helped me with anythimg. They just kept telling me they wish i was dead and that im nothing but a burden.
As a male survivor that was also fed to the wolves by my mom, what pisses me off more than the perps themselves, is the spineless, cowardly non-action of those that allow it to happen. My heart hurts for you Rosie, but know that the experience can hone you as strong as chiseled steel, but can also fill you with compassion and love for others that have experienced similar trauma. How do I know? I’m now 63 and have a great life.
So true, eff the cowards that stand by perps and allow it to happen. They deserve the same disgust.
Kudos to you
I’m glad you made it out and living your best life!
Absolutely! You will have super powers. Believe it or not.
Some that stand by do so because they themselves feel powerless because they too had been victims of abuse as children. What I want to know, to all the men out there, why do you not address toxic MALENESS that permeates our society? You rape, you molest, you physically, sexually, emotionally abuse and wreck so many generations of women yet you all do nothing to figure out what to do to FIX your gender.
This poor, sweet, beautiful girl was betrayed by both her parents. I applaud her for taking the initiative to free herself from her horrible situation. I pray she finds peace and happiness. ♥️
Rosie you are a STRONG LADY!! I'm from a Native American community and it's rampart here!! Stay strong girl!! Don't give up!! 🥰
Rampart😬😬😬

How native are you actually? 🤔
I don't understand how so many mothers lack the natural instinct to protect their children in this way. It's unbelievable
But the man is the natural leader and protector right? Why would she protect? 😂
and the father?
both parents are suppose to protect@@br00klynnative58
I think they feel powerless to speak out against it. Also, there's shame in some cultures, which they want to preserve their reputation and protect the abuser from punishment
@@br00klynnative58 yes we are in the good cases! I would die to protect my son and daughter and probably a strangers
This girl is going to be a success story. She’s got it all- she’s smart, she’s gorgeous, she’s insightful, she’s aware. Can’t wait to see what she goes on to do.
And she seems like a good soul.
After what she has been through, she's still a very sweet girl. Lots of strength of character, so I think you're right.... she'll do well.
You got a crystal ball
I concur! We are all cheering for you Rosie!
I agree ! 💜
I relate to her story so much. I also escaped my abusive father at 20yrs old, i couldn’t get a job, had health issues & chose to leave and be homeless. It’s gonna be a year in March since I left🥺
Bless you ❤
I'm proud of you!
Very proud of you 🥺
I wish you peace and safety Elizabeth.
Jesús is your savior
my mom experienced something similar. she was molested and sexually harrased by her uncle--my grandmother's brother--and *no one cared.* his funeral was a big deal, and when my mom refused to attend, my grandmother gave her so much shit for it. appalling. i hate her. the way the women of our family will bend over backwards to ignore the horrible actions of their sons, husbands, brothers, uncles. it makes me sick. it makes me sick that you had to go through this. breaking the cycle of abuse is so hard, but it's so important. you're stronger than you know, and you still have so much life ahead of you. you got this.
As a mother myself , I can’t understand how a mother can put ANYTHING above her child 😔
I felt I was ok with my abusive childhood. Then I had a child and it made me angry. I love her so much and would do anything to protect her. Why didn’t my mom feel the same?
Because you're a real mother. 💗
Happens all the time, women are weak
Lots of “mothers” out there are like this unfortunately.
@@higgaroc 60%
Your mother is as guilty as your father and the number 1 enabler to the abuse….this so sad!! Praying for you Rosie and I’m so sorry that you are going thru this horrible experience.
As someone who comes from Arab culture, this is unfortunately common. These women are male identified. They will tell you to "cover up" as if its your fault for tempting the husband.
I blamed my mother for years but as I got older I realized when you are poor or combined with poor and uneducated you feel like you have no options to even survive if you don’t have the man in the home. It basically turns being poor into a crime all in it’s own class. The mom probably stays stressed thinking , no not thinking, but knowing you gotta watch every move made by this man to protect her girls must be exhausting on top of everything else. I’m rambling and probably not making much sense but I know there can be many sides. I would like to think any mom would go to the ends of the earth to protect their babies I just know that in reality it’s harder than some may think to do the 100% right thing sometimes for the most messed up reasons.
I hope she reports this to the police. Abusers never stop
It’s the saddest thing to see her so broken yet so strong. Thank you for sharing your story Rosie. I truly believe by you sharing helped a lot of us girls who’ve been thru a similar life story.
Just like Gabrielle, Rosie mentioned how the eyes of the abuser changed. I met a sexual abuse survivor once... she opened up, told me her story and she said "you know the sound eyes make when they open?". I just stared at her. Of course I didn't. How can you hear eyes open? She said "I learned to recognise that sound", when her abuser would wake up in the middle of the night...
If hearing that her mother did not protect her makes me angry, I cannot even begin to imagine what Rosie must have felt. The anger she is feeling... is gut wrenching.
I am so glad she is still here, and even though I have not met her (or will ever do, probably), I am so proud of her for pulling through and becoming a beautiful person. Thank you, Rosie for sharing your story and all the best wishes for your future.
That sentence, just sent chills through me. “The sound eyes make when they open” just terrifies me.
@@letoitatum2899 I went numb when I heard it.
Mark, please keep us updated with Rosie if you can. You can tell she is a good person and I really only want the best for her. Is there anyway we can set up a gofundme specifically for her? I really want to help her and I'm sure others do as well. Rosie, please keep your head up if you see this. I believe you and shame on your mother for not supporting you.
Absolutely...this Girl needs help to get Out of everything and get good Therapy....and this PIG of a Father needs to See the Police -.-

Abuse is a cycle, she shared her mother was abused as a child. Sometimes woman have low self esteem and are trapped. Especially if the man is a good provider. It’s easy to say what you would do but it’s not easy. When you call police the police side with the man. In the 90 s they’d say go to a hotel for the night. After all we are talking married couples and families.
@@carlitasway2477so women will put up with anything to not be accountable for themselves or their expenses? Sound right to me..
Yes please …. She deserves only the best in life ❤
Devastating is not a strong enough word in hearing this story. As a father with all girls, I cannot begin to fathom how a man can look at his own daughters with anything less than the purest form of love. I cried for you Rosie. And always will.
Well said, Sir. I have daughters too and this breaks my heart. It’s the ultimate betrayal and sin.
Pedophile father
This makes me furious as a father mothers need to put their foot down and stop letting this happen to our kids
I’m so sorry, Rosie 💔
What about the women? Disgusting
Diane Langberg has a video on complex ptsd. She explains so clearly what our minds do during abuse and why we can't remember things that happened to us. She also talks about the lack of motivation because we're so consumed with dealing with the trauma internally. I always described myself as lazy and unmotivated but now I understand that I'm not lazy, I'm just detached from life because of all the trauma. I related to your story so much and Diane Lanberg's video on complex ptsd helped me so much so, I thought it might help you too. Good luck, I hope the best for you!
Mothers who let this happen are the worst kind of abusers
I just donated to Hope the Valley rescue mission in Rosie's honor. I have a daughter Rosie's age and this breaks my heart. As a father, my purpose in life, the only thing that matters to me, is the well-being and happiness of my children. I'm shattered that there are parents out there who would hurt their children, or allow them to be hurt. Thanks Mark for bringing this to us, and Rosie for motivating me to help, just a little.
Thank you for being a great Father to your children.
Thank You ❤
Thank you. ❤

@@SoftWhiteUnderbelly follow-up after she’s settled, please. 💕
Side note but the pandemic worried me so much because I thought of all the kids that had school to escape their unstable homes. That’s all I thought about. She was stuck there with no school no work. I’m so sorry this happened to you. What makes me more angry is her mom saying to lock her door. Wow.
SAME. 😢
I thought about that a lot too. School is some kids only esca
Same. Every day
I was a self absorbed new father who only though about my family. I never stopped to consider what you said. 💔
@@GrannySoupLadlei bet you're a liberal
Thank you for sharing your story. These things happen soo often in Hispanic/ Mexican culture and are soo often covered up and ignored. Your strength and courage gives me fuel to come out to my family about my stories. If you ever need anything feel free to reach out. From one survivor to another. I love you and I’m here for you. Echanle ganas hermosa poderosa ✊🏽💗
Hi Rosie, your story is reminiscent of my own. I suffered as my Dad” WAS my perpetrator. My siblings and I suffered for years of abuse. I thought I was the only one in the family getting abused but at the age of 14 found out about my young sister. I put his ass in jail!! A lot a pain followed but I was the change! I stopped the cycle of abuse. It’s scary but it’s also brave. He went to jail for many years then he was deported! I never had to hear from him again. I saved my family. That is what you are doing. You are saving you and your sister. Don’t be hard on yourself. Your so tired because of you’re hyper vigilant and now you feel safe and need to rest! You’re strong sister, I see lots of growth coming your way.
As a mother myself, I can't fathom how a MOTHER could EVER allow this. 💔 I'm so sorry, Rosie.
I want to believe you but I used to hear my own mother say things JUST like that in public only to let my father and brother abuse me in private before taking her turn too.
I've never met a virtue signaler who didn't use those phrases as a mask.
@@john-ic5pz,
In your mom's case, saying those words was virtue-signaling.
Those of us who have survived the harm sexual abuse caused don't say it lightly.
Online it's impossible to tell.
The good news is that those of us who survive long-term profound depression and self-doubt become vigilant about the safety of our children, grandchildren -- all children.
The statistics reveal there are many victims of childhood abuse who commit suicide. So, it's good that you've survived.
I've learned over the decades how weak my mother was when we needed her protection. If she had not retreated into her room leaving us unsupervised with our inebriated father and friends, or if she believed us when we told her what happened...but that was typical of her: the only person she cared about was herself.
I'm in my 70s and am finding it impossible to forgive her.
She's 97 and still obsessed with herself.
Nothing is ever her fault, and she's terrified of dying.
@john-ic5pz that's exactly what I was thinking. These parents that talk like they love their kids so much and "would kill if anyone ever thought about doing that to their kid" most likely won't. It's an act. Many people don't care about their kids. They just have kids because it's what they're 'supposed to do' by a certain age.
I'm sorry yall had such worthless mothers.. 💔
@@keysnlemons7756i wouldnt go as far to say that MOST people don’t care about their kids
In our Latino culture, they say that “family comes first” or “family is everything” so when you go through this type of trauma everyone will turn on you and you will always be the outsider when you speak out against this bs behavior. I applaud anyone who is brave enough to speak out. Cut them out of your life! The titles they hold don’t mean s**t when their behavior speaks for them. Stay strong Rosie! No estas sola ❤
“Latino” means Latin and of Latin origin. Hence the term LATIN_o. Indigenous Americans and mestizo Americans etc. of south Central America and Mexico are Not ethnically Latino and never have been. HISPANIC LITERALLY MEANS SPAIN. AND THE CULTURA LATINA-THE LATIN CULTURE, THE LATIN PEOPLE, THE LATINO TRIBES (Latini), THE LATIN ETHNICITY AND THE LATIN LANGUAGE ALL COME FROM ITALY! LATINO IS THE SOLE IDENTITY OF SOUTHERN EUROPEAN LATIN MEDITERRANEAN DIASPORA WHOS ETHNICITY AND CULTURE COMES FROM THE TRUE AND REAL LATINO ANCESTORS OF ITALY. And Hispanic is literally the Latin language for Spain not the native Americans they colonized such as those Of south, Central American and Mexican origins weather you or others like you acknowledged it or not. Both Hispanic & Latin/Latino culture come from Europe that is Latin Europe. & Latin Europe was Latinized by Italy hence how Latina Italy got the historical Latin name LATINA! LATINO= SOUTHERN EUROPEAN LATIN MEDITERRANEAN DIASPORA OF THE LATINO ANCESTORS OF ITALY. Hispanic is the name the TRUE Latino people of Rome/Italy gave the Spaniards. People from south central America and Mexico are historically native Americans & now some Mestizos whom where just forced to learn Hispanic ways just like people in North America who where forced to learn English ways and it ends there. Being culturally UNROOTED due to brainwashed acculturation is why so many Americans especially North Americans don’t know their own identity Nor even care.TRUE Latin people need representation in North America as we are misrepresented all day long in this country and it’s not ok. Culturally rooted proud People native to south Central America and Mexico who embrace their true identity feel the same way with FALSE brands like Hispanic and Latino as that is Not their origin it is the origin of their conquerors. South Central Americans and Mexicans are indigenous Americans, mestizo Americans, Castizo Americans, zambos, pardos, sub Saharans etc. Not Latins, Not Latin Blood therefore Not LATIN_O. LATINOS are SOUTHERN EUROPEAN LATINS born anywhere in the world who’s roots come from the LATIN Roman Empire of the Mediterranean Race. Again HENCE HOW LATINA ITALY GOT THE HISTORICAL LATIN NAME LATINA! If those like you want to claim the Hispanic identity and origins of Spain then what ever. HOWEVER us culturally aware true Latin Mediterranean people are tired of this brainwashed American obsession with misappropriation and cultural rape of foreign Latin terms from Italy. Supporting American Brainwashed cultural theft for “gain” and “benefit” does Not magically change this. CULTURALLY REMOVED North Americans need to learn and respect their true culture that way they can stop stealing from mine. & TRUE LATINO MEN & WOMEN AKA SOUTHERN EUROPEANS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MULTI GENETICALLY MIXED ETHNIC PEOPLE DUE TO OUR MIDDLE EASTERN, NORTH AFRICAN & ETHNIC BALKAN DNA. THIS CULTURAL RAPE TOWARDS THE TRUE LATIN PEOPLE OF ITALY EXIST BECAUSE THOSE LIKE YOU BELIEVE YOU HAVE & WILL CONTINUE TO “BENEFIT” FROM THE CULTURAL THEFT TOWARDS US TRUE LATINO MEDITERRANEANS WHO DESCEND FROM ITALY! THE TERM LATINO DERIVES FROM THE VERY FIRST LATIN TRIBE CALLED THE LATINI. LATINI IS PLURAL FOR LATINO AS LATINO IS SINGULAR FOR LATINI. THEY WERE CALLED LATINI BECAUSE IT WAS A TRIBE OF MANY PEOPLE HENCE THE PLURAL TERM FOR LATINO BEING LATINI. LATINO REFERS TO A SINGULAR FORM OF BEING LATINI AND ALL THE LATINI INFLUENCES. THE SAME WITH LATINA BEING SINGULAR AND LATINE BEING PLURAL IN THE LATIN/ITALIAN LANGUAGE. THESE ARE ALL TERMS CREATED SOLELY BY THE TRUE LATINO MEDITERRANEAN ANCESTORS OF ITALY. YOU CAN NOT BE PART OF AN ORIGIN, HISTORY AND ETHNICITY WHICH YOUR ANCESTORS FACTUALLY ARE NOT HISTORICALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR. END OF STORY. IT HAS BECOME TRENDING PROPAGANDA FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT OF PROMINENT LATIN MEDITERRANEAN ORIGIN TO MISAPPROPRIATE LATIN EUROPEAN TERMS OF ITALY AS TRENDING PROPAGANDA TO APPEAR MORE DESIRABLE FOR SOCIAL STATUS FOR SOCIAL ADVANTAGE. AND IT NEEDS TO BE EXPOSED AND PUT TO AN END. PERIOD. there is No sono Latino/ soy Latino when you are Not of actual Mediterranean Latin diaspora, specifically of prominent Mediterranean Italian diaspora. There is No “our Latino culture” when you do Not descend from the SOLE people who are historically responsible for the Cultura Latina the Latin culture. And it is delusional to believe so.

Mark, thank you forever for giving people who are struggling (to put it mildly) a voice - a chance to just let stuff out without being interrogated, judged, interrupted, or preyed upon. This may sound weird but after watching a few of your interviews, I get this feeling that you listen with love - even though you're always off camera. Great job. So sorely needed.
Rosie, you are so incredibly strong and you have such a beautiful soul. I’m so glad you have finally been able to start your path towards healing… and the fact that you left your abuser and are able to share your story just shows how brave you are. That bravery will carry you far in life, and you have so much of it ahead of you. I wish you all the love, happiness and success in the world, you deserve it so much 💛
Rosie's mother should be SO GRATEFUL that Rosie turned out to be this smart, wonderful young woman in spite of what she allowed her to be put through.
She is a remarkable, beautiful, brave soul. She is so much stronger than she thinks. My heart goes out to her and her sister.
She is a real survivor, she accepts what her parents really are, she does not sugar-coat. She is is destined for good things.
I was abused from boys in my neighborhood when I was younger. I’d black out too from every encounter but since I’ve became a Christian, I’ve had nightmares, sleep paralysis and had to go through forgiveness for myself because none of it was my fault. It was tough, but in my walk through faith, I built a support system and shared my hurts, found healing. I’m in counseling now since anxieties came back from having my baby girl, but it’s eased my mind. My girl won’t have to be put in situations I was put in, she will be aware of herself, of people, and if anyone is to watch her- we will know everyone she is to be around. 🙏🏽 thank you Rosie. Thank you for sharing the hard parts. I’m sorry for your family but I know your story will help others just as it did for me today. - czarina
I should also add, I did forgive my abusers. Forgiving was for me, not for them. They couldn’t give a crap for all the hurt they caused me because I can only control how I feel about that part in my life. I don’t have to hold onto hate- despite all that was stolen from me. I have all I ever prayed for, and amazing husband who teaches me a lot, in laws that are AA goers and counselors- a healed mom from alcohol. And now a daughter for me to love and raise. 🙂
It's disturbing how many people go through stuff we will never know.
Thanks for stepping out.
Some people do not deserve to have kids. Her father is disgusting but her mother is just as complicit. I really hope Rosie is able to find her healing and inner strength. She's so young and she can still be happy without those people. Thank you for sharing your story and the awareness that it creates ❤❤❤
Que triste historia yo lloré con tu testimonio pero tu eres una persona muy linda valiente y vales muchísimo deseo que encuentres el alivio para tu alma no te rindas en buscar sobre salir a todo esto
My father was abusive, physically and mentally. My mother also could not leave for over 30 years. She is Asian and grew up being taught that your husband is God for you. You cannot ever leave. This codependency was so deeply ingrained in her, she couldn't act. She was terrified of being alone. I blamed her for a long, long time, and even now I bring it up during fights. Deep down, though, I know that it was not her fault. This is a systematic, deep, deep opression of women, carefully cultivated for centuries, in many strongly patriarchal countries. It destroyed the lives of both my sister and I. My father just passed away last week, not having improved himself at all, never admitting anything. I feel sorry for him. The girl in the video can hold her head up high, know she is a good human being. At least she always has that.
Everyone who sees this video who knows this girl and her parents, will know what her parents did.
Rosie you are beautiful. You are articulate and intelligent. I hope you get through your trauma and life starts to treat you kinder.
What a beautiful young lady, articulate, intelligent both academically and emotionally who has suffered her whole childhood from the worst kind of abuse, sexual abuse from her father and unprotected, unloved, neglected and dismissed by her mother. Wishing you a good strong recovery Rosie, you will make it and from that recovery will be able to help others suffering in a similar way.

Wow, you are so aware and well spoken. It saddens me to hear your story because I can hear the pain in your voice and how hard you have struggled with this. Your trust in the two people that should have been your biggest supporters has been shattered. You are a brave and lovable soul. I hope you continue to take the steps you need to get your education, stay off drugs and heal fully. You are not to blame whatsoever for any of the abuse brought on to you. I wish you great things in your life, thanks for sharing your story.
Her mother told her never to be left in the same room with their father, but Rosie’s first memory of him sexually abusing her was when her mother left her in the room with him after speaking with him. She knowingly fed her daughter to the wolves that day & every day after that..😢😢😢😢
This actually makes me want to bawl this girl is so beautifully soft and sweet and she NEVER deserved this but I couldn’t picture a better person to come out of it all 🖤 (as a fellow girl who’s been hurt)
It’s hard not to cry along with this young lady. Her pain is so heavy.
Nice fake story, "i just need a job" WTF Have you been doing for 20 years lazy bum. Stop crying and pull yourself up by your bootstraps. Your fake story isn't going to get you money from me.
I cried too. Rosie deserves so much better. I’m proud of her too.
Yeah I clicked on this expecting an intense game of hide and go seek but instead I got detailed trauma
The fact that she didn’t even know what happened made it a lot less sad for me.
fucking incel that is called trauma your mind will block the bad memories@@Seargent_Scraps
I’ve heard many stories about pedophiles raping many women men, but this story really made me cry. I can tell by the sound of voice she is so hurt. I was also a victim of my stepdad. That’s why I was always cautious with my four boys.

Rosie I was sexually abused by several step father's step grandpas my biological grandfather and step uncles. My mother knew everything!!!! I was more angry with her than my abusers also. I feel a connection with you and your story. Im so proud of you for sticking up for yourself. I spoke up All the time and my mom would just turn the other cheek. Absolutely sickening im 46 now and haven't spoken to any of ny biological family since I was 14. My grandma aunt and all the family shunned me for speaking up and reporting my last step father best thing ive ever done. It was hard supporting myself at such a young age. I went through hell trying to deal with my emotions but truthfully I will always struggle it never goes away. But at least today im not suffocating from my trauma it doesn't go away but t gets somewhat better. Keep your head up and always remember that you are a survivor!!! Thoughts and prayers sent your way ❤️
They should be publicly shamed. Not protected!
Sick evil perverts,so sorry.
Im so proud of you! I was abused for almost 10 years growing up. Age 4(maybe even earlier)-11 or 12. My mom’s dad was the perpetrator. He’s dead since 2004. Even when he was bed ridden he tried to grab my hand and force me to to let him touch me. The worst horror of my life. I cried of relief the day he died. 35 years old now and thank god for a few years of therapy to get me passed my immense amount of anger I felt towards my mom, my grandma and that family. I told my mom when I was 7 years old she denied he would touch us. We drove to my grandparents house every weekend from Los Angeles to Rancho Cucamonga. It didn’t stop for another 4-5 years. Thank god got therapy.

Thank you for sharing this
I’m looking forward to a 6 month follow up with Rosie. She is a warrior in the middle of the hardest battle of her life. We stand with you Rosie.
We believe you.
she's a warrior? what's that mean?
warriors have training, tools, and the support and admiration of their societies.
Rosie and everyone like her are just regular people with survival instincts.
calling her a warrior is like calling her dad a monster... no, that glorifies what is an every day reality of human nature and the human condition for large percentages of the population.
@@john-ic5pz
existential warrior
When you have to fight to survive and overcome major adversity while also possibly caretaking or defending others.
I hear you ❤
How can a father touch his own daughter that is sick her dad needs to get lock up wtf
Thank You for having the courage to share your story! I pray for your peace as you find healing! Take the time you need to heal and know that your are being cheered on by those who hear you! I believe you! I know your truth and I am sending you prayers!
This is deeply disturbing and genuinely heartbreaking. I cannot understand how a man can sexually abuse anyone, let alone a child, and let alone his OWN child. It makes one question how often this happens without any consequences. I pray for her and wish to send her healing energy.
Me too man it keeps me up at night it's horrifying
A lot
Most likely Dad was abused. It’s the cycle
@@dimplesp4046it could be, but not necessarily. It’s still a disgusting thing to do to a child either way
Seriously. How does anyone do this to an innocent child, it doesn't get any more depraved than that.
Rosie was not only heard, but just gave a voice to those of people who can’t speak up
Wow. Such a moving interview. I felt her pain from her words. Rosie, you are beautiful. You did not deserve any of that. Nobody does. I wish you all the best!
Oh, Rosie. My heart and prayers go out to you. I cried along with you in this, you are so strong for sharing such a deep wound. As a survivor of my own father, I can tell you that things do get better. I hope you can find the strength to keep going, keep loving yourself. Thank you for showing me that we are never truly alone!
This is sad, disgusting, moving, specially for anyone who went through the same situation as her. Never be ashamed Rosie, we are survivors.

Your amazing!! Thank you for sharing your story, what a testimony!! Love & blessings 🩷✨
I'm a 48 year old man and a father of 2 girls and a boy and I want to wish Rosie all the best this world has to offer God knows she has suffered plenty.. Cried throughout listening to her telling her story..
It’s horrific to hear how many mothers allow their children to be abused- which obviously is abuse in its own right.
Sending prayers that Rosie goes on to have a wonderful, healthy life full of people who value her.
It’s very hard to believe that there are good men who have no wish to SA children.. so thank you for being good. It helps a lot.
rosie, im really glad you did this. growing up in a machismo household is hard enough and i cant imagine the pain of other things you went through that came along with that. i feel very heard and seen through your words and emotions, and i realized im not alone. echale ganas rosie you’re worth the world and more, and i know the grass is so much greener on the other side. thank you for your story❤️
God rosie, ur story really hurt my heart… I can’t imagine how stressful ur experience has been. The important thing is that u survived to tell ur story. God bless u
Only one person hated more than an abuser- a truth teller . My heart goes out to this person :(
Damn, that is to the bone truth.
She is lovely wishing her the best
This woman is so beautiful and well-spoken. Her pain is palpable. I hope she finishes her education, stays clean, and creates a safe and nurturing life for herself. Her mother, and father are both the abusers. They are both weak and pathetic.
No mames dont insult her mother
@@raulchaidez2946Her mother is a fucking hypocrite, she allowed Rosie to be abused and tormented by her father. Knowing 2 of her daughters were being abused she still allowed that man back into their home. while also saying “I don’t know why they are inviting my abuser to our family gathering”. Her mother is clearly in the wrong as well.
@raulchaidez2946 her mother is just as complicit as her father. Her mother allowed her father to continue abusing Rosie.
It doesn't take away from Rosies love for her.
Just like many paedophiles. Some were once assaulted too. They just grew up to become the perpetrators. Just like Rosie's mum being a victim and being aware. Yet choosing to live a fantasy instead of reality. She knows and she chose to allow it to continue.
Thw word for what they are is - evil.
@@raulchaidez2946 wtf!? Did i misunderstand you? You being sarcastic?
Dear Rosie, I am sorry for the pain that you had suffered at the hands of your parents. No child should ever feel unsafe with the very people that are supposed to protect them. I wish I could give you a hug and tell you that you are such a beautiful person. Keep up that fighting spirit and know that you are so loved.
Sweet baby. As I sit here bawling my eyes. Not only because of what you have gone through but because I have a daughter that in my heart I know something happened to her yet she hasn't opened up to me about it. She went from a happy child to closing up doing drugs and was very depressed. We enrolled her in rehab and slowly she has been doing better. We have a better relationship. You are super strong and valient. It pisses me off that your mother didn't protect you. I wish you nothing but the best! And if there is anything that I can help you with please reach out. I don't know you but i feel this protectiveness. God bless you❤❤
Prayers for you. I hope you get the answers your daughter needs and she comes out strong and on top
Being Mexican and around the Mexican culture I know how hush hush things can become and it’s heartbreaking how many victims and stories go unknown and you became a voice for many of those. Being vulnerable is the strongest thing a person can do and I hope nothing but healing and prosperity for you girl
Dirty Peps
Same in black communities unfortunately.
@@tywilliams3891 🐒 that's why
@@tywilliams3891 So true. 😔
@@jamesmanning6421 what's up with the monkey?
“I’m uncomfortable with myself now” was such a powerful line for me. Your pain radiates through the screen, but so does your strength. Thank you for speaking out, giving a voice to those who haven’t found theirs yet. ❤️
Thank you for sharing! You're so strong! I can relate to so much of your story. I'm finding healing still. You are going to have a happy life, stick with all of your support. Much love for you! Never give up! 💜💜💜
As an American of Mexican descent, I can tell you in our culture sexual abuse within the family is common, and it is kept silent. Because of this, the cycles continue. I’m a survivor and didn’t even realize I had a severe traumatic childhood until my therapist told me. Thank you for bringing awareness to the forefront.
I was about to say this is such a mexican cultural thing. (i too am mexican america) It’s sickening
Why, though? My boyfriend is Mexican and his oldest brother is a pedo and almost all the family protects him. What is this? Why is this a cultural thing? The fvck??
Absolutely true. Bad hombres.
SAchica: I had heard this from a friend who was from same group. Did not want to mention it so, Thank you. The more we understand,the better. Tee
I also come from a Mexican family and it happened across several generations. My cousin was abused my multiple family members. My Grandfather molested neighbor children ( he died before I was born) My uncle tried to do it to me and there are others. I never thought of it as a cultural thing
I’m so proud of you! None of this was your fault you did what you had to do to survive at the time. I was also assaulted at a young age and I can’t remember all the details and it bothers me too. I also peed the bed for years after my abuse stopped. I didn’t realize it was from my trauma until I listened to your video and it makes sense now looking back. My predator was my foster brother so there was no escape. Stay strong and keep pushing forward!
Sweet and fragile heart, you are loved by strangers more than you know. Thank you for your courage in telling your story. May God bless you and keep you in his hands for a peaceful and happy life from here on forward. Thank you, Mark.
Dear Rosie- When Mark asked about your regret, you said you wished you said something sooner. I hear you. What you feel is real and valid. Having said that, I’d like to gently shed a little light on your regret. Please try to see that you DID speak up over and over and over, from such a young age. You spoke up in the limited ways a child is able to speak up. You spent years searching, waiting for someone to hear your cries- especially your mom who should’ve been a reliable protector. As a trauma survivor who has wrestled with very similar regrets, I have a gentle challenge for you: Is it possible that you could reassign that regret to your parents? THEY BOTH are the rightful owners of that extremely heavy burden you carry. You did the absolute best with what your growing mind/brain could possibly handle throughout the years. You are resilient with a strength beyond your years. As you seek to leave your trauma in the past, you will develop your own tribe; a true family who supports you in healing with love and grace. Please keep up with therapy- the work is worth it. Each day, and especially on the dark days, I humbly request that you give yourself the gift of self-care. You are worthy and you are loved. My hope in writing this is that you could somehow feel the strength of a fellow woman-warrior who can tell you, without a doubt, that there is light and love to be experienced as you emerge from your past life that was full of trauma. Your voice is not only worthy to be heard and acknowledged, but your story will bring hope to countless others for many, many years to come. May your soul be filled with peace, may everyday bring a new reason to smile, and may you see yourself as the mighty warrior you are. ❤️🩹 There are countless brighter days ahead for you, dear one. Hugs. -e
I love this post very very much thank you. And thank you Rosie
I hope she hears these words. They resonate with me. The guilt I held has been similar to you and Rosie. Mine Guilt was for getting under the cover, but it’s not mine to hold, being a child and speaking up over and over in many ways. You are right Erica, she did speak up sooner! Amazing note. I’ll say lastly, I believe in us Rosie. :)
Perhaps what she really means is that she wished she had DONE something about it sooner. Either way, you are right about reassigning the regret to her parents, and the only genuine way to do this is by taking actions against her parents. The only way to properly reassign the regret to her parents is by making them regret what they did. She needs to seek retribution not only for her own peace of mind, but also to warn any abusive parents out there that their victims won't stay as victims forever...
The culture of silence is breaking because of these brave souls who are speaking up for themselves and for all victims.
Also , this is so amazing you had the courage to speak about all this and be so articulate at such an early age and so close to the trauma , I was shocked when you said you were just 20 ! This just happend! So you are making huge strides towards healing . Your going places I know it
I’m so sorry Rosie. May your heart be healed and your life be happy and blessed. ❤
I am Mexican/American and this happened to me. Sexually abused by 2 uncles that lived with us. Now I'm 30 years old and i refuse to have children. Thankfully I found my amazing husband who understands and even got a vasectomy.
Speak up about this 💔, I'm sorry you went through this. It's not your fault.
Don't change your life because of what some garbage humans decide to do. Bad things don't have to happen to your kids. As a parent, you're the protector.
@@the.marinatorDon't be so inconsiderate
@@Ashley-mc5bi Huh how was I inconsiderate? I just said she shouldn't let others limit her life's potential. If she doesn't want to have kids, then that's her prerogative.
@@the.marinator They're not "letting" garbage humans control their life. Until you've experienced that trauma you won't know that you don't have a choice in how it affects your mind and personal views long term.
“ I just want to be heard” oh honey, I hear you. So proud of you for getting out. You should be proud of what you did telling your story. 😢
Yep you’re right,
so definitely xx
So proud of you for speaking up! You are a very strong young woman! God bless you ❤
Rosie you have not giving up on yourself, and that is so amazing. You deserve compassion towards yourself. Try and give yourself a break. You will feel good one day because you are a healer and can heal yourself then others too.
Someone please give this girl a career opportunity she deserves you are one brave beautiful young lady love u Rosie ❤
She's only young she will be able to figure it out on her own, she seems like a very capable lady.
Suggestion for you….rent a room, go to a trade school for something like Medical Assisting. If you like it, climb the ladder to nursing. I think you’d do great with your compassion, grit and determination. A lot of schools may only be 6months and help with job placement. Good luck! You’re a champion!
💜💜💜💜💎💎💎💎💎
Who are you talking too@@hollyegee2199 ?
Medical person here: Rosie, Know that you are an honest, very kind & really intelligent and beautiful person, who has the strength to know right from wrong and Chooses to be with Healthy people. You are Definitely Not Lazy, you are appropriately grieving your trauma right now.
Just give yourself a bit of time and know that All that you are doing with therapy and being with the right people who support you, will totally empower you and ALL YOUR MOTIVATION will come back and you will make your dreams come true!! ❤from Montreal

Thank you for sharing, as someone who has been through something similar, it’s very empowering to hear your voice, too see your tears.
This is heartbreaking... All of luck, healing & success to Rosie!
My grandpa did similar things to my mother and me. My grandma also looked the other way. I want to commend you on confronting this and addressing your trauma. My mother never would confront it and it caused her to drink herself into an early grave. You’re a beautiful and intelligent young woman. You are an advocate for all CSA victims and all children. You have a bright future ahead of you. Focus on your health. You deserve it. Much love and prayers to you ❤
Also you’re not lazy. Your nervous system needs to recover. I recommend Pete Walkers book on CPTSD and the body keeps the score.
People that look the other way are just as bad as the molesters.
The same to you girl. You stay strong and heal ❤
The lack of memory is a trauma response. I have had the same with my trauma. She's a brave woman for telling her story and I am happy she is in therapy. As soon as she started crying it broke my heart ... Rosie you are a beautiful, smart young woman and I wish all the best for you x
Am so proud of you and your courage to tell your story. Please keep telling people your story. Your experience helps so many....you're a Strong, Brilliant Woman your transparency gives others strength ❤❤ Keep going, don't Stop!!
You are loved. You are worthy. Thank you for telling your story and for being vulnerable. I would have been so nervous, too. Your strength was given to you by a higher power🙏🏼 you are definitely helping someone who is watching your life story. Go out and live your life to the fullest❤
Rosie... my heart goes out to you. My mom forced me out of her house when I was 13. A homeless girl in the city. God rescued me... I went to medical school. There is hope for your life. Ditch the drugs...get your education... pray. I am praying for you. Rosie, you are so intelligent, articulate, and beautiful. Oh, I excelled after I left my toxic family. I went from homeless abused girl, got myGED, went to college, and now stand on my two feet. Work through the depression. Your child Will come back to you from heaven one day.
Do NOT ditch any drugs until you are emotionally stable...self-medicating is part of your healing process.
🙏🙏🙏💪💪💪
This poor girl. You can hear the pain in her voice as she tells her story. I would be 100% down for getting some sort of go fund me set up for her to help this girl get on her feet and have a shot at life. ❤
Mark stated in another comment that if you donate to his gofundme and specifically note that you would like it to go to Rosie, that money will be given to her.
@jewelsbarbie thank you!
@@brooketheil6551 ❤️❤️
Heart goes out to you girl 💓 I’m so sorry you experienced this type of trauma 😓 praying for your healing journey 🙏🏼
So incredibly strong, brave and beautiful. My heart aches for the amount of pain you’ve experienced. Stay strong, you deserve nothing but peace and love in your life. ❤
Wow! I’m so sorry you had a mother that didn’t put her children first. It breaks my heart when I hear of mothers like that. You’re beautiful, brave, and a remarkable young lady.
❤
But you’re not sorry she had a father who put her through that and was an evil person? Yall are sick people. Im sure thats the last thing she wants to see over “im sorry your father did that to you”
Rosie,
I know nothing can replace a parent’s love and protection, but I hope these comments show you how deserving you are of that and much more.
We believe in you.
Oh dear Rosie…I am so sorry this happened to you. Please be strong. I have no words to comfort you that will remove the pain. I hope you find the light and know there are people who will always support you.
I’m so so happy you have finally felt heard & seen Rosie, I don’t underestimate how terrifying it must have been to open up such horrific trauma to the world but I hope you don’t underestimate how many people this video will help and even save, you did great girl!! There’s a book you should read called The Body Keeps the Score - Mind, Brain and body in the Transformation of Trauma by Bessel Van Der Kolk, it could change your life. Much love and strength ❤
Omg, you can hear it in her voice that she’s still so hurt & traumatized about this situation. Mom genuinely betrayed her daughters.
This was the hardest video I've ever watched of yours. My heart was crushed listening to the beautiful young woman talk about this monster. This man needs to be in jail. You're a strong woman with your whole life ahead of you. I wish nothing but the best for you moving forward in life x
I haven't watched videos from this channel in well over a year but I'm watching it after the one with Bethany. I've literally watched well over 1,000 homicide documentaries over the years, possibly a few, but these were tougher to get through than a lot of those. The First 48 does a good job of showing the horrific impact of homicides on the survivors, albeit not as much as Mark can with this format. Heartrending stuff.
What an incrediblely courageous person you are to tell your story. I relate to the way you feel about your family and it made me cry. I wish for all good things to come your way. You more than deserve it 💛
Hear the pain when she tells her story. Be strong, stay sober! Keep moving forward everyday
He is a sadistic, evil "man". Her mom is just as bad.
My heart breaks for you. You are brave. I wish you healing and strength.
I am a older woman who has lived through sexual abuse from my father and physical abuse from my mother. She didn’t believe as a child or as a teenager. In fact no one in my believed me. He wrote me a letter asking for forgiveness for what he did to me. Mother never did. I guess this triggered me. Sorry that this happened to you. You’re a survivor who is not alone. Stay strong ❤
Couldn't make it past a few minutes but I appreciate you sharing your story Rosie! Glad you're better enough to share your story,I know how it is with this type of abuse to say the least,thank you for still being here,God loves you.
Rosie - I just wish you love, joy and peace. You have been thru alot - It takes great strength to endure what you did. That same strength can be your springboard into a better future for you. You just keep going - you are doing great. I am so sorry for what you went thru and had to endure - but you made it and that is truly a testament to who you are inn your heart and soul. Please focus on that - your strength will guide you to higher ground. May God bless you
Rosie has it more together in life at 20 then many of us decades older.
maybe for u
Plenty of time to screw things up still
So many positive replys jerks! She actually does, hopefully she gets her stuff in order and stays away from alcohol and drugs , she is a very smart girl.. sometimes we get treated like were the crazy ones when it truly is everyone else, now that shes distanced herself from her family she should go far
I have a lot of hope for her because she's so introspective.
“Together”? What does she have more “together” than most people? Paying rent is basic.
I hate that she keeps apologizing for crying ☹️ Rosie, it’s okay to feel, to grieve, to process. This is really hard stuff that isn’t normal or okay for a child to endure. You’re so strong for sharing your story, please please don’t apologize! Every feeling you feel is valid and heard ❤
