@@thematriarchy2075 , you can see the drugs have aged her, you can visually see the hardship of her life in her appearance however she is so wise & well spoken. Her mind is sharp despite her lifestyle. I hope she is well
She’s also articulate and versed. Without drugs in her life and more of a family circle I can easily imagine her as a business owner, or a team coach or Dr. or a librarian. Still, it’s good to see her and hear that no matter how hard Life tripped her up right out of the gate it seems, she still a whole person is her own person.
I love this Woman. She’s so humble and truthful . I wish the best for Tanya.She deserves to truly be loved and know that she matters. She has a beautiful soul.
@@cindyfitzgerald4500 I agree wholeheartedly....even as late as I am to this post, I feel with the proper resources, Tanya could be great and help a Lot of youths to not take her same path. Her humility is awesome and rare ❤👑
I don't get it, she's obviously unhealthy and probably malnourished but her skin has no blemishes and basically glows. Imagine how beautiful she'll be when she gets sober ❤️
These videos definitely gives me an insight on how we treat our children does majorly effect how they turn out in the future, People love your children and raise them right, respectively, full of love, drug free environment, give them a chance please.
@@mariehopkins8122 absolutely. And how to break that cycle is the real question, copying and mimicking parents bad choices....I truly wish her and her children well....she is so humble and talks strongly about how she wants NOBODY to live the life she had to live, esp on drugs
"I'm worth more than that" - Tanya if you're out there somewhere reading this I want you to know how proud I am of you and that I love you. We can get through this and I will keep you in my thoughts 💛
This was such a beautiful comment, you brought me to tears. To read this helps more people than you will ever know, and hopefully Tanya as well, I thank you 😊❤👑
"Anything that alters the mind, takes full control." ~Tanya~ Yes! Love how she handled talking to her daughter about trying substances. Tanya had a rough start in life that she didn't deserve, and once she moved past the underground world, she has been able to put her experiences to good use. Especially keeping her children away from drugs. ♥
Sad when a woman leaves a man who's abusive and leaves the kids with them ! Like if he hits you and you leave what the hell do you think he is Gonna do to the kids , sad
I've heard of many cases like this, where the mom left her kids because she couldn't tolerate the abuse. Typically, the mom doesn't have resources to take her kids with her, or she would have to deal with the court system for taking the children from their father. They don't have any options to deal with it amicably
@@dontbelongherefromanother You can leave a home with your children and if THE pig has a problem with it let him go ring the police and go through the court system for ACCESS !!! You don't save yourself and leave them poor things to put up with what you won't. No excuses AS a mother it's your DUTY to protect your kids. Your making excuses for them to walk away, it's a cowardly despicable thing
I was born and raised in Victorville, CA., and I walked to the Circle K about 1/2 mike away at 8&9 years old. By the time I was 13 we rode our bikes all across town. I started working at a Del Taco at 14, and would ride my bike home, (probably 3 or 3/12 miles) after 11:00 pm many nights. Never a fear in my mind!! That was in mid/late ‘70’s.... Today? I’m afraid to see grandkids cross a street without adult supervision!
@B. O.: Yes, I’m in rural place now, left CA in ‘92. Never looked back! But even here, in a town of 6,000, the pedo’s are real. Satan truly has corrupted so many hearts and minds. Sad.
I’m 47. When my parents were together, I lived in Anaheim. I remember my mom sending me to 7-11 with a note from her saying it was ok to sell me cigarettes. I went to the store every day for her cigarettes.This was late 70s.
You are so intelligent and beautiful. Just a person who has lost their direction. But the way you speak of your children... anyone can seen you have so much love. So many people believe in souls like yours. Please believe in yourself. You are so unique in a wonderful way. Drugs will always diminish that for anyone though.... Again, please believe in yourself to still have the power to get out of this situation. You’ve earned it for yourself.
Congratulations Tanya on 18 years of marriage.... I enjoyed listening to your Story... Thank you... you are a Strong Beautiful Queen... 👑 wishing you the Best!
I really admire how open and honest she’s being. I think she took the opportunity to tell her story because someone is finally asking her. You’re a warrior, Tanya and the fact that you’re still here and fighting for better days is an accomplishment very few can achieve.
I like Tanya, I could listen to her answer questions all day. Something so refreshing about her way of getting her point to you. It’s direct but not offensive.
You can see how sweet this lady is. Bless her heart. She made it whereas most end up dead. I totally can relate to this woman. She is a survivor and that's so cool. I'd love to have a coffee with her and chat about how she made it and compare how much we have in common. Great video. Gives people hope.
I am loving the community of regular commenters on this channel. It's tough to get through our personal lives and also sit here and take in the stories of these people on this real channel, though I am so thankful that I am here to see it at this time in my life.
damn damn damn 😩😩😩😩 this shit hurts my heart that people go through this. i can’t even begin to imagine the pain she’s been through. bless her... wish her well also her hair and skin is absolutely beautiful ❤️
Tanya is amazing. Thus is one of the most honest accounts I've heard of the horrors of addiction and the devastating consequences. She provided awesome advice.
God bless you! Your remarks on education reminded me of a bumper sticker I saw 40 years ago. It read "if you think education is expensive, try ignorance ". It stuck with me.
Hey back to you beautiful Mz Fancy! I hope you have had a great day! I can tell just by reading your comments you’re a kind and caring person! Keep on being the amazing person you are 😊❤️
Thanks Elaine! I try to make every week of videos more interesting than the last.Your suggestion really makes a difference in what I’m able to do with this channel.
Tanya is a deep soul, very thoughtful, caring and well spoken. I hope she keeps up with living her best life possible, renews her enthusiasm for her and her family and their lives. And may I mention she is very attractive!
I missed this interview a year ago; I travel for medical reasons and my health is a drag to say the least...BUT I wish this one had way.more views! Tanya is such a lovely woman, coming from a horrible start in life. She has such an intelligence, heart and soul in spite of all the hardship. She has no bitterness or poor me attitude at all. Tanya's understanding if the human condition and her advice for others is no nonsense and the truth. I wish that many more ppl see this interview. Tanya is one of my favorites on this channel and Mark, you did great work here with a great lady; more relaxed and questions that were meaningful and important. God grant you blessings Tanya, you are unforgettable! Peace and love
It is the craziest thing how much abuse people have to endure by their bully parents. It is so so sad and I wish this never happened to these innocent children. This channel has really opened my eyes to how hard these peoples lives were. I think everyone should listen to their stories and we would be more tolerant and want to help them instead of condemn them.
My dad left me with my mom that lady was crazy he no it she lost custody of me her boyfriend was trying to mess with me I told one of the boys he shot him 6 times I was 14 years old
I really like this lady. She’s smart, confident, well spoken, but had a shit childhood. I wish someone would help her. I think she could really make something of herself. God bless her.
I like her. She's smart and articulate and gutsy. She's someone I could respect and enjoy meeting for lunch or coffee. I'm really glad that sje stopped tricking, and really glad that someone looked beyond her appearance and her past saw value and potential and someone he could love. Great story here, Mark@
Interesting channel. I’ve watched many of these videos. I would like Mark Laita to answer the same questions he poses to others. If he’s as brutally honest as these folks are, his answers would be equally disturbing.
Praying for you Tanya. Your best moments are ahead of you. Make it to the finish line. Forgive yourself; forgive others and live under the covering of most high
Having done every drug by 17, including using a needle, is more than teenage experimentation or peer pressure. It's a symtom of something much deeper and it's great that she asked her mom for help, so many teenagers do not. I hope more was done for her than just telling her to stop using drugs. Please🙏🏽break the cycle and answer her cry for help.
life beat her down but she still here!! mind is still sharp and well spoken, a makeover will help like some teeth & and hairdo the outside will start to match her insides @ this time in her life.
She has had to learn and figure out this world on her own, but she's achieved much wisdom from Life. I saw her light up when she said her happiest was when she got married. I wish her peace and love.
A perfect example for many young girls who think there is a benefit from prostituting. Wasted like for a few $$. I tip my hat to those who use the fast money wisely to empower or educate themselves.
Tanya, you are truthful and to the point-direct. You are a beautiful person inside and out. Abuse of any kind even whippings and spankings can and will cause trauma that stays with you for life. Depending on how much violence and terror was involved as well as how often or how old one is when they first experienced someone’s rage directed towards them. Children’s brains are developing and they feel everything like 10,000 times more than older children. Once a child has experienced true fear from an authority figure when punished harshly or verbally attacked, the limbic kicks in to protection mode. This is the emotional center for trauma that sets an abused child on a course of please, fight, flight and/or freeze mode. The damage is done ✅. These children suffer tremendously throughout their lives. They have no to little self esteem, self worth and drive or will power because they rebel. They rightfully so are confused, hurt and carry that pain within so deeply that they suffer dearly because they feel hate and or just never felt loving nurturing care. They feel guilt and shame and helpless therefore they are fearful and can not standup for theirselves. Or they project that pent up anger outwards onto others. Depression and addiction can aid in their downfall if they feel the need to escape their circumstances and their home life experiences as well as reality in general. They are easily manipulated-the more vulnerable and trusting the more they are targeted. Self sabotage is common for children who survive in a constant state of CPTSD-complex post traumatic Stress Disorder. High alert state can shorted ones Telomeres, and fray the ends due to ones ongoing and active stress levels just to cope in ones life. There are few choices when one is trapped or escaping from oneself into the drug scene. Drugs control those who partake as they clog up the synopsis’s receptors used when trying to make a personal choice. The will to quit and change is dulled to the point of nonexistent on any substance that is addictive. Abuse and strict punishment are one in the same, more harmful and negatively affects a child life for life. It actually is disabling a child’s ability to function in society. To raise children without damaging them, a parent or both parents must communicate with their children so that they understand and trust you. Once a child fears an adult and is hurt by an adult with physical or verbal treats, their trust is skewed-altered. Their dependency is heightened as well for which welcomes in poor decision making. Escapism, trust issues and dependency is a recipe for disaster. Addictive personalities, addiction and victimization follows suit meaning further abuse down the road as well as self abuse; and repetitive self sabotage. Life becomes extremely difficult, chaotic and challenging. That quote, spare the “Rod” spoil the child actually means in biblical terms-spare the “way of god” spoil the child. Children were not born to be abused in any which way or form. Children have rights and they have a right to stand up for themselves. Abuse robs a child of their power to grow up and make healthy decisions. Stop the abuse! Learn to love, nurture, care, effectively communicate, empathize, understand, accept and have more compassion and forgiveness for children. Believe a child, protect your children from harm and those that have no foundational upbringings and teachings. ETA🌹
I would have loved to heard more about her marriage now and how her life has changed as an adult now as a result of all her experiences. Focus more on the experience itself rather than getting specific answers! That’s where the phenomenological magic is, and where you get at the root of humanity.
@A'ja Grisom is she doing well?? I really hope her marriage is healthy and she’s living happily. I hope you’re doing well, too. You and your mom come from a lot of hardship but if you’re anything like her, you guys are resilient and keep fighting.
I found this channel quite awhile ago and I watch every notification bing watch ones I haven't seen rewatch ,got my friend and his mom now who watch this channel and it's not because I like seeing hurt people or that I haven't experienced some issues and problems, habits of my own I guess all stories of these amazing broken people's lives and I don't know I just know am hooked but also have new respect for certain people and understanding for homeless people ect I've always gave few bucks if I had to give but now if I see someone on hard times it hurts my heart so much and if I don't have to give I try find way to get something so I can give
