    @@chadharrod5246 Yes she does have to get off of the drugs. Yes she admitted it is her responsibility to stop taking drugs. She even admitted at an early age she agreed to the drugs. She is still using drugs, but she was not the reason of her addiction. Her parents started getting her high off of heavy drugs at an early age, 10? Shooting morphine into her arms, opiate pills. Not only did her mother turn her into a drug addict. Then she was treated like the other woman after she was raped & forced to be her biological father's girlfriend hmm at the age of 13. So if she needed to be numb at an early age, that's understandable. Like she said, that's all she knows, is getting high on drugs. I'm sorry this is one of the worse stories on this channel I have heard. I have heard some wild stories, this one tops Kristine? a/k/a murder?

An Uncle molesting you from the age of 5-13 years old is not considered any type of relationship. The adults who keep letting the predator around the child had the relationship with the predator. The victim which turns into a survivor never had any type of relationship with the rapist

I had parents who used drugs and alcohol in the house and let the neighborhood run through the house doing so, sometimes when they weren’t there (or were checked out), so violence and abuse would occur without notice. Sometimes it’s even as obvious as my friend’s mother passing the crack pipe to her at 15. She said she smoked it because it was the first time she had spent time with her that she could remember. Another girl I know…her father gave her meth at 13 so he could more easily control and sexually abuse her. He figured if she needed the drugs she wouldn’t fight him anymore.

I’m genuinely curious on this mindset I just can’t imagine how human beings can be so heinous. Is it that easy for like minded people to find each other? Do they just think it’s okay because these girls did drugs? Is it just “normal” for some people to rape? I wish there was more research on it because I just really don’t get it. In the meantime, these are the type of people that would benefit from a little Ludovico Technique.

I couldn't think of 1 person in my life that wouldn't react with disgust at even the thought of raping someone, nonetheless carrying out the vile act of doing that.... so I don't understand how 5 people can come together and all agree that rape is acceptable... not even 1 person said "no, this is fucked up, we can't do this", I would think 4 out of 5 would be against it and bear the life out of the one person suggesting it or attempting to initiate it.... I too am at a loss for how 5 grown men could do that and be in agreement that that's the right thing to do? High or not another man or group of men could never even attempt that in my presence... I don't get how a man could get enjoyment out of having to force a unwilling sexual encounter... a crying or fighting woman you would think would be a major sexual deterrent but I guess their are some men that are just super mentally sick and fucked up... I don't get it either, I have 2 daughters and I am hyper aware and protective bc I don't trust no one and I'll be damned if my daughter's ever had trauma like that inflicted... just a sick world really and people are evil and vile really.

How do you help someone who's been damaged over and over and over again?

    MARK, this woman was NOT in a 'sexual relationship' with her dad, she was being raped - molested. Consent is required of a relationship. I'm appalled by your wording. Perhaps it was ignorance, perhaps it was a moment of insensitivity, but I believe an apology is in order. It may seem like a non issue to some , but practice empathy and think how it must feel for a young girl to have grown up the way, be hurt by those who should have protected her. Any implication that it was consensual or wanted is incredibly damaging. We all er, but regardless I feel pained for her and all victims/survivors.

Culture here is much different and mental illness, isolation and drugs run as deep as the cultural roots. Lack of adequate mental health in western NC is a big factor. Sad, I wish I had all the answers and solutions. This cycle goes on and on generation after generation and few decide to break it. Most are raised with a lack of encouragement and knowledge of a different life. I'm praying for you Jessica! Mark, I hope you can have an update on her. Much love.
