I love that these ladies are sharing their stories and supporting each other. They are some of the best people that can talk to Jayme about everything. Elizabeth also went to Jayme’s town to talk to them about how to act with her when she comes back. I love that. These ladies are telling their stories on their terms and it’s so empowering.

I'm sorry but why are the monsters able to take our children with such ease? I say OUR children because when you're a mother you are automatically part of the club, like it or not.

Elizabeth Smart is such an incredible, strong woman and has been such a great voice for survivors and families over the years. But all of these women, and many more, have managed to do real good in spite of living through hell. They should never have had to go through what they did, but the fact that they are pushing forward and supporting others is so inspiring. Everyone should be taking a page from their book.

Everything Elizabeth Smart does and says is so phenomenal to me. It’s not often we see survivors in the public eye like this, and then going further to counsel and support others. ♥

I'm so glad these women are able to talk with each other and support each other. This is such a horribly specific situation that no one else can begin to understand.

What an amazing group of strong people. Such an inspiration to other survivors.

Sometimes I get depressed when I think about my problems and feel helpless. Then I see my problems are NOTHING to what these young women are going thru. Wakes me up big time.

It's really statistically uncommon for abduction victims to survive, actuallyvery uncommon. Not all abductions/missing persons are high profile outside of their local area, but when the missing person is found alive it will get a lot of widespread media attention due to how rare survivors of these circumstances are, especially when the perpetrator is a stranger. This is not always the exact case, but in general survivor stories are high profile in comparison to unsolved or non-survivor cases

Sadly, all the therapy in the world can never give her back their innocence or restore the piece of mind that was stolen that fateful day.

Honestly Elizabeth is one of the BIGGEST role models in my life.

These woman deserve everything, what they have been through is beyond unjust and unfair. I send all my love to them all. The fact that they now still speak out and are trying to help others, the strength they show is one of the most incredible things I have ever seen.

What I would find most traumatic in a situation like this all is if the world didn’t take my case as seriously as other cases. If the police and media didn’t care that much.

guys get kidnapped & harmed too... happened to me a long time ago & the cops did NOTHING about it, despite me being found beaten & unconcious at a park... Same thing happened with the boy who almost escaped Jefferey Dahmer.

Other cases involve a woman kept shackled in a cargo container and that Austrian girl, which may be the worse case. They deserve sympathy too.

Because it seems kinda creepy because you can search up anything on KZread and it can turn a person on a very very bad path if you don’t catch them in time. That’s the issue Look at Breck in 2014 he became like the bully he was kinda rude, because someone brainwashed him over playing a video game. So if that can happen to someone by telling them imagine just seeing an anti bullying video or and anti sex offender video. Ones that are meant to help people but sometimes the off person takes it out of context. They don’t think that what they are seeing is not real online.

Mary and Michael were the parents who were shot in their own home in the middle of the night then 9 year old Jennifer was abducted and then killed about 50 miles away. The killer has never been found, but I feel it's someone who stalked the family and surveyed the house as it was up for auction in 2002.

I think most of these bad people don’t start off bad. I think at one point they were caring, outgoing, and wonderful people. But like I said on Twitter people can snap, and I think KZread has lots of do with the bad choices people make these days.
