children who are traumatized actually need stability and familiarity. The real reason she couldnt have the kids though is more due to where she lives. Shes a single woman who lives in a country where women dont have much rights. they wouldnt let her have the kids. they wanted the little girl aborted cause she was a girl and treated her awfully again cause she wasnt a boy. you can see their parents also had the same behaviour where they favored their son and blamed everything on their daughter. its a generational and cultural long standing issue she was trying to fight she couldnt win.
Damn. OP straight up saved both kids from abuse and a life of misery. It's sad she didn't get Lu but her and Josh are now in the better because of OP. She's a guardian angel. Please listen to the whole video its linked.
"destroyed reputation, destroyed family" what I don't understand is how horrible they had to be to ignore the obvious ab*se of the younger kid but are mad at OP for exposing the family.
Like father like son. You can see by the brothers encouraging attitude where his son got his manners and “kindness” from. It isn’t even Josh’s fault, and it’s visible how he regrets it and it’s even taken a toll on his mental and physical health. I pray for the best for both children and their new families.
As long as she is in safe hands is whats most important. Same with Josh. Remember YOU didn't do anything except protect those children. Make sure to stay in their lives. They need someone to stay connected to.
No matter how much the other kid messed up (Josh) I do agree that leaving him with his grandparents isn't a good idea as well as putting him in the same house as Lou. Josh might have been a shitty kid but he's still a kid who was enabled to do those things but he can still change. I wished they were a normal family to begin with but seeing how things turned out I hope both of the kids and the OP will find peace and live happy 🥹
This whole story sucked. It’s sad she doesn’t get to see them. Especially Lou. She blew up her life and mental health to help them. She still lost. The parents don’t care. It’s beyond sad. Glad the kids are safe.
"My cat thinks she owns me, though." So, it's a normal cat? Man, OP went through hellfire and brimstone for those kids. Hope they all heal physically and mentally.
I’m honestly heart broken for OP why do they have to be distanced from the aunt who saved them that brother and his wretched wife and parents don’t deserve any happiness they knew it was happening and done nothing there own daughter to took a beating from her own brother and they still berated her for pressing charges and ruining his family so disgusting, they poor kids and all the pain they endured especially Lou at least there safe now but my heart goes out to OP 😢
Anyone not wanting to look up rest here's a summary: Op was able to get parents to agree on recording to take girl, girl was doing better, op kept record of everything. Ops brother broke in and attempted 💀 but neighbors saves op. He was arrested but brother and sil said op was saing the kids. Their countries cps got involved and placed girl with cousin of op. Op is doing rins of classes and certifications to do better and provide better for girl. Girl is thriving with cousin (who is married and have kids and ahes doing good in a stable loving home) and cousin is planning to adopt. Everyone is in therapy. Brother and sil are divorced and there are restraining orders. Brother was rearrested for trying to 💀 sil, neither are interested in either child. The boy, who was discovered was also being abused in a different way, nor legally allowed to say, is living with op and doing better. A different cousin is going to take the biy in a different city so both kids can have a new start without interfering family. Op got a sassy cat so they aren't alone now the kids are gone. Summing it up: Kids are safe. Brother is in jail. Sil moved on. Op has sassy cat (they are very happy with their cat) still getting certifications and job seeking for stability.
No only if you have back up power for it. When OP mentioned scheduled power outs sounds like a South African thing, we call it loadshedding. It's expensive to own additional backup power supply. So if OP is from South Africa this could be the only reason to why.
while i do appreciate your extended family supporting the children and wanting to help them; there are some people who will in the end bring their problems and portray it other kids like making them turn against parents while they are the “good ones “ i know this isn’t everyone and every one does need a second chance but you can’t help someone who doesn’t want help i’m talking on personal experience we had a cousin living with us and she messed my family up 19:30
Thats so sad that they need to distance from their aunt who saved them for their own good im glad their safe OP should find a roomate
its sad but it make sense. they associate their aunt with their worst times and past trauma that led them to uproot their lives

This is stupid the auntie should be able to see her niece and nephew idiots

She tanked her life to save those kids. Dang. Her perspective of the positives is honestly really inspiring. She doesn't seem to have any regrets.

I know that it hurts but you saved those babies, you did good
I hardly breathed watching this...OMG...OP is literally giving her life up for these children, I'm in tears.
That poor boy is also a victim. This is so standard for abused children. This is not abnormal for families like this.
This whole story sucked. It’s sad she doesn’t get to see them. Especially Lou. She blew up her life and mental health to help them. She still lost. The parents don’t care. It’s beyond sad. Glad the kids are safe.
Sounds like she is an amazing aunt. The kind everyone deserves. I hope she gets to stay in their lives.
Watching this felt like music to my ears, OP is a great person and I hope they continue to be one
Every one got happy ending except the person who identified the abuse and had guts to do something about it. 😢
"My cat thinks she owns me, though."
So, it's a normal cat?
Man, OP went through hellfire and brimstone for those kids. Hope they all heal physically and mentally.
Christ those poor babies! And gods poor OP! Everybody was put through the mental and emotional wringer and had their entire lives ripped apart.
Those grandparents are awful!
Honestly, she should focus on writing this story. It may be therapeutic and helpful to others suffering through abuse.

she should 100% not take josh in. he needs some serious help after the things he’s done and his parents have enabled.

Op is an Author; She should write this
German here. I cringed every time thy voice said "The ss lady" 👀
💀😂
Yeah , it was a pity that a different name couldn’t be used , maybe op doesn’t realise how those initials affect people .
It's cruel to see such a young kid going through pain and for her own father to yell at her
Ok but why at 10:21 do the cameras not work without electricity, shouldn’t they have a battery backup?
They possibly have cameras that only operate via electricity
Na, maybe that was just some cheap camera with a cord like for baby phones.
No only if you have back up power for it. When OP mentioned scheduled power outs sounds like a South African thing, we call it loadshedding. It's expensive to own additional backup power supply. So if OP is from South Africa this could be the only reason to why.
That honestly isn’t fair to OP for the kids to distance themselves from
Give Lou the gift in front of nephew
Born to a psychopath dad and a sociopath mom, sigh.
It's called child neglect
I feel bad for those kids and the op
accidentally early 😂
while i do appreciate your extended family supporting the children and wanting to help them; there are some people who will in the end bring their problems and portray it other kids like making them turn against parents while they are the “good ones “
i know this isn’t everyone and every one does need a second chance but you can’t help someone who doesn’t want help
i’m talking on personal experience we had a cousin living with us and she messed my family up 19:30
What county is this?
Barely barley
