cesleigh brooke There's multiple FLDS members who have said similar things. A woman and her young daughters said something very similar. It just goes to show how hellish life in the FLDS truly is. It's a sentiment shared between many who have escaped. edit* I commented this before the woman and her daughters were shown. I think they're actually the ones who also said what I referred to above, in the video where they get haircuts.
Watching him struggle to read the word “dogs” hurt my heart. I wish the government would crack down on the abuse that is happening. I can only imagine this is the tip of the iceberg for the abuse these children have endured
Land of the free and home of the brave... Too much freedon causes this disgusting crap. In my homecountry he would not do half of what he did in the US
I think you are right. Eventhough I live in Germany where homeschooling is forbidden I think a lot of Kids actually Benefit from actual homeschooling but it can‘t go unchecked otherwise something like this Happens or Kids End up being abussed by their Parents
No dentist in their religion, and lack of education they never learned proper dental hygine, they probably brush their teeth, but anyone can get holes and stuff, especially kids who's teeth are more fragile. But 'normal' people see a dentist about once a year and get it fixed, but I can guarantee you that they have never met a dentist or even seen a dentist chair before, and when holes font get fixed they end up looking like that
Jess Johnston. I must admit I don't know how it is with dental care (dentist) here in Norway when it comes to preschool children. Allthough things have changed a LOT since I started grammar school (1950) I can't remember I was taken to the dentist before I started in school. The teeth you get as a child, you lose at at 6-7, not much sence in throwing out a lot of money for dentalcare before they start growing "real" teeth, unless there is actual desease or/and pain. Dental HYGIENE is something different again, THAT should ABSOLUTELY been tought any and all children from the first tooth. THAT I remember my brother and I did religiously every morning and evening. I also remember we were tought both general hygiene and mouth hygiene at school, even in that day and age.
I feel so incredibly sorry for these children and I am disgusted by how they were treated. The little girl already has really bad tooth decay! I'm glad they're better now.
I spent several months researching this a few years ago. I read several books, there was a reader board (??) where "apostates" would discuss what was going on in the adtermath of Jeffs conviction. Im glad so many are getting out and (hopefully) realizing what a fraud he is!
This is CRAZY! I was homeschooled in Tennessee and it was required we had to do yearly testing to make sure we were at the correct learning levels. This is heartbreaking.
From when? How did they solve problem? Still it's allowed to teach children in private school that doesn't learn anything I guess, that is a bigger problem.
Candice Honeycutt Just like most people believe that child brides is not a real thing because most states require one to be 18 to marry. However, there are children as young as 12 marrying adults in the United States today. It's rather sad www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2017/02/10/why-does-the-united-states-still-let-12-year-old-girls-get-married/?.e1d3164dbc9e
A lot of Mormons would probably agree with you, @Sherwin McPhee... FLDS is a splinter, after all, and *most* Mormons are embarrassed to have even a partial connection to whacko polygamist cults.
Daniel Levinson I totally agree. I was raised in an LDS family. I haven’t followed along. But it’s embarrassing to even has a similar name to that horrible group.
Erika Martinez I wish I’d never cut my hair. I gave it to locks of love, which makes people pay for donated hair. Then I got a comb stuck in my hair. I would’ve got it trimmed, like I do now, but I’d NEVER cut it!!!
Just pass a law that states every child homeschooled must have an exam at the end of the school year, once a year or every two years. That'll solve your not being able to know what they're being taught at home.
@@coolyeh1017 uh the government wants you to remain uneducated.... That's how they keep control take away rights and have the schools pump out a bunch of factory workers.
The government of Utah chose this. It is a state known for being heavily controlled by extremist religious sects, and one of the least regulated states in the country as a result. The government of the state has outright endorsed child abuse. And this is a good lesson in why federalism theoretically seems like a good way to prevent massive government overreach, but in practice results in certain regions producing incredibly inequitable qualities of life for its residents as compared to other regions or even the national average.
KevinCummings Fitness there’s a lot of things they shouldn’t do: separate mothers from their children, take child brides, rape them in a so called church, be under the authority of a sick pedophile, who hopefully spends the rest of his earthly days behind bars. These people have been so abused and hurt. I hate it.
Isolated areas in Utah should be monitored and local officials should make sure all kids are attending an educational institute in order to make sure the next generation is prepared to face any hurdles in today's world.
No child should be calling themselves “wicked” or being an “apostate” (at least in the way they think it means) at such a young age. I’m so happy they got out, I hope they can escape the brainwashing too💖
Wow. I feel bad for these kids. The state needs to change their laws on home schooling. I was taught at home. When I went to take the test for my GED, I was two year college level on all subjects.
Aww watching him read is so precious, I'm teared up 🥺💗 be safe, all you, trying to escaping hell !!! I'm praying for you and sending you lots of positive energy!! Its about growing as a being and evolving !
I love when at 5:26 the journalist asks if they know how the president of US is elected and one of the girls quickly asks "how?". so eager to learn and now she has a chance
Most religion don't do Christmas, it's really recent. My parents were educated as Catholics in Europe and it didn't exist as it exist now. So just about 50 years ago.
+Lego WW2 It proves your control over people while your claiming your not brainwashed. You don't have to believe in something to know about it. You are definitely brain washef
+Parii27 because the US government is not a dictatorship, people have constitutional rights which you seem to want to deny them. Perhaps we should force you to live like them? Those same rights that protect you from living like them, protect them from living like you.
+Dirk This is not an argument. I could have a concentrstion camp and say it's the USA and not a dictatorship. These poor kids don't want to live there but they are FORCED into this sick shit!
Parii27 and how many of their kids complain about it? You dismiss a whole culture on the complaints of a very small dissatisfied minority who have left. The same way they voted with their feet and left, so can all the others, yet they choose to remain. Got to wonder why. From their perspective, it is you who has been forced to live in a sick and twisted society, not them. Your society's issues with drugs, homicides, rapes, suicides, alcohol, unwed teenage pregnancies, unemployment, school shootings, school dropouts, DUI's, homeless people, high divorce rate, aids, prostitution, etc. is proof enough to them that you are indeed living in a sick and twisted society when compared to theirs. Perhaps you should first clean up 'your America' before forcing others different from you, to live in your society's carnal filth and decadence. It is always easier to point out the faults of others than to admit to our own.
+Jeff Cagle no one is saying that criminal activity doesnt take place among the FLDS . It does. but you cant paint them all wity the same brush as Jeff Warren. I'm not mormon. I personally believe Mormons need Christ , even if they live a moral lifestyle. But thats not my decision to make for them.
Oh my gosh that little girl at the end _soooo_ looks like a friend's daughter! Hopefully they'll find healing and starting a new life away from all that mess.
religious freedom can also be a bad thing in cases like this. wolf wearing sheep's clothing. the whole town is crooked, and miles from another town. they were taught outside world was evil. police also were same religion. so calling police, only got u in trouble, because they told your parents. and returned u to them. very scary. I lived in Utah. not a Mormon though.
"If this is hell, well i am glad i stepped out of heaven". Be strong and be of faith, real Heaven awaits where is not bounded by dictatorship, nor evil.
I'm surprised at how laid back Utah is with it's homeschooling laws. In Florida if you decide to homeschool you have the state and county school system both breathing down your neck till graduation day. The endless paperwork, yearly evaluations and laundry list of requirements you have to follow are enough to drive anyone nuts.
Would love to see update on the girls if anybody knows of a link let me know I’ve always thought about them ever since this aired. I hope they are all well❤️
Maybe when you get older you will realize the whole Jesus thing is a massive con game just as much as this asshole as a massive con artist SO2 the Jesus thing is a massive con job
Fernando Furia Esq. yes religion was made to control people but there is a difference from being in a religion so controlling in a way and being a follower.
Fernando Furia Esq. you just might think so because so many people are using his name in blasphemy and vain for their own gain. And because of all the extremists, fake church’s, all the lies some tell. But if you have a connection with God and can study and understand the King James Bible Correctly then you may think different.
Tina M Fam oh please. LDS were polygamist, Brigham Young, Joseph Smith they all had several wives and young ones, they stopped that crap because it wasn’t “acceptable” anymore and they change church rules when it’s convenient for the church. LDS it’s a made up eligion. It’s funny how modern LDS don’t want to admit it and want to erase that from the church history.
In the UK, you don't have to follow the National Curriculum as taught in schools, but local authorities can check on the child's education, and issue a school attendance order to force the child to go to school if they think it's warranted.
Makes me glad about California. All education programs must explicitly disclose three areas to the board of education. 1. accreditation standing, 2. examination results, 3. curriculum
I am sorry but the last bit were the girl put up her clothes on a hanger broke my heart. I mean how does she even know those words she what 5. My God the bullshit that gets thrusted on the kids, women and even men in this group is sickening:/
The sad thing is there are some good principals they teach: hard work, modesty, temperance, etc. but they are being taught with the end goal of control in mind.
"Did you guys hear of santa clause?" So it's not okay for them to be taught that Warren was the president but it's okay to lie to your child about santa claus? Okay double standard much. Lol
