I just want to reach out and hug her. It’s not fair that innocent children have to suffer physical and sexual abuse, starvation, wars and abandonment. Children deserve so much better.
This was my childhood too. Somehow I managed to be a productive person in society but the memories will never leave me. Hang in there sweetheart and try and not let the abuse define you. I know you probably won’t read this but if you ever need to talk to someone who has been through the same thing, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me.
I can relate to your story completely , I wasn't abused to the extent that you were but I'm now 67 and still think about what happened. I consider myself lucky as well that I didn't go down a dark road but along the way I have thought of suicide. ❤
@@dawnbarron3020 SORRY TO HEAR WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU AS WELL @DAWNBROWN. I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN ABOUT THE MEMORIES NEVER LEAVING YOU, THOSE DAMN PREDATORS CAN SMELL INJURED PREY AND KNOW WHO TO ATTACK NEXT IT SEEMS. I'm TURNING FORTY SOON AND STILL CAN'T SEEM TO NUMB AWAY THE PAINFUL MEMORIES THAT HAUNT ME EVERYDAY. THANK GOD YOU DIDN'T TURN TO DRUGS LIKE I HAVE.

You’re remarkable, you’re giving yourself the life they took from you. And now you’re not only helping yourself but so many people around the world. I wish you a wonderful life full of promise. xxx
This lady is so amazing❤ Im speechless. She reminds me of someone close to me that has been through CSA. She finds happiness in nature and music. Shes amazingly strong.
Darling girl, you are an Anomaly…. You are kind Insightful AF, Brilliant and Compassionate. I’m a Psych Nurse, Counselor Trauma Yoga Therapist, and a Fellow Survivor , You Are TRULY 1 in a million, I wish you would work as a Therapist, your lack of self pity and your sense of compassion and insight can help so many others like you … As for your Teachers…. IDIOTS !!! You are INSPIRATIONAL a TRUE ANGEL….!!!! Thank You… Sooo Proud of You for NOT becoming a Statistic…. Sending MUCH LOVE and PEACE … Also, you are 100% correct , ADHD is actually a trauma response, it is a coping skill …!!! You Are AMAZING !!!
I'm also a psych nurse I didn't realize ADHD was a trauma response but it makes sense most ADHD behaviors are basically hyper awareness on overdrive 99% of ADHD ppl are super smart
When Adeliz said she connects with nature to heal, the moon, etc I shed some tears. That she came to that understanding is beautiful. Thanks to you both. Inspiring interview ☀️
She still talks to her mother?… Where the fuck was she when all of this abuse was happening? Especially since SHE was the main one bringing all of these damn men into her home and around her daughter. I have to strongly question her conviction when she allows an obviously toxic woman who is the causation of her continued abuse to remain in her life, yet cut everyone else off.
This was definitely THE MAIN AND ONLY QUESTION I was hoping mark would ask...I know you don't wanna poke and prod someone who's been through all the stuff she says shes been through... But asking where her mother or caretakers or parents were at in all of this seems like a FAIR QUESTION.. and one I think almost everyone would want to know
This happens all the time. A mother in a rocky financial situation, struggling to keep a roof of her and her children’s head, possibly suspecting something but doesn’t really know for sure and ignores it becuz she doesn’t wanna be on the streets. Not sure how you don’t know about ur young daughter being tied up and painfully abused sexually with lashes on her back though, but I wasn’t there so who knows what the situation was. Fucked up situation all around.
By far one of the strongest abuse survivors I've ever seen. Her outlook is amazing, her children are absolutely lucky to have such a strong woman as a mother. My blessing to her and her family. Those who abused her, I only wish my absolute worst in life and I hope you get yours at the end.
What a strong woman. The strongest I have seen in awhile. Your ptsd is so so severe. Thank you for sharing your story. What a beautiful soul. I wish you nothing but the best.
She’s going straight to heaven after going through literal hell and still be able to be such a great woman with a purpose and a great mother, true hero.
Her name should štand next to the meaning of the word unbreakable. ❤ She is so wise, and loving, I do not understand what kind of stuff is she made from to survive all of that horror. I bow down in awe🎉🎉
Thank you so much for sharing your story. You are definitely not going to let them win! Maybe someday you could even be a speaker to show that there is hope. Even when you've been through hell as a child. Thank you Mark for inviting her onto your show!
My first memory was also at age 3. The fact that I am a functioning adult after 9 years of sexual, physical, and emotional abuse is my greatest accomplishment. Drugs. Alcohol. Guns. Imagine being brought up around that every day. When I got older (in my 20’s), I was unable to pursue criminal charges because statute of limitations. I’m thankful that laws have changed since then. It’s a life long struggle of anxiety and depression. The shame is always there although after decades of on again off again therapy, it has lessened.
Congratulations ❤ I was physically, emotionally, sexually abused starting at two. Never did drugs, drink wine occasionally, college graduate and business owner only The Most High has protected me. Like you the statue of the crime prevented me to pursue. Both abusers are mad at me because I called them on their abuse. Not one has apologized or expressed what they have done to me. I refuse to talk to my mother. It triggers me because she refuses to acknowledge her abuse towards me.
When SA isn't handled in the right way by parents or family members, from my personal experience, the handling affects you more than the actual incident... Because of this, I have no relationship with my mother or anyone in her family... . I hope this lady continues to heal on this long journey 🙏 ❤
From a fellow nanny you’re such a blessing to those kids . Knowing what you went through as a child and the love you didn’t receive you’re giving to the children you nanny for keep pushing ❤️
"Always think deeper and try to understand." Thank you for sharing. I am so happy for you moving forward on the right path. God blessed you and your family🫠🫶😃🙏
No one is going to hurt you or your family in the future, you are now able to protect yourself. Thank you for sharing, so many of us have had abuse, I'm so glad now we can have a voice and attack the real problem.
In a similar boat here. Was sexually abused by an uncle from ages 4-14. I’m soon 27 & still in survival and don’t know if I’ll ever manage to get out of it. I’m barely functioning. Thankyou for sharing.
She is extremely positive (yet realistic) and strong for everything she has been through. Breaking the abuse cycle takes deliberate effort and she has definitely put in the work!
Thank you for sharing your story IV been through something similar my aunts husband sexually abused me from 7 or 8 to 16 years old I recently found the courage to go to the police and report him. I got a lot of family members blaming me for it which I cut off connection to I am hoping to get the justice I need in order to move on. You seem like a much stronger woman to even be able to share this not a lot of people understand it ruins a person's entire life it's a never ending struggle My abuser Edwin safari 383 w Wilson Ave Glendale CA I will get justice one day! You keep staying strong girl! It makes other victims as myself have a glimpse of hope to see you thrive
Wishing her the best life has to offer going forward after having gone through so much hell and coming out as strong and gracious as she does. Remarkable strength nobody should have to muster.
My jaw immediately fell to the floor hearing you're from worcester!! Lived there pretty much my whole life. You are so strong for telling your truth. Keep being amazing ❤
Wow thank you for sharing your story. You are an inspiration! You should be so proud of yourself as you have an amazing attitude toward life. I feel you have so much more to share and hope Mark has you back for a second interview.
I relate so much to her story and have watched almost all the interviews . When she said she wished the teachers when she looked at them could just see through her and see everything I felt that . Unfortunately I did become a static but I’m also very aware and have 6 years of sobriety under my belt but this crippling depression and the survival mode I haven’t seemed to get over it … thank you for speaking up for being relatable ,being a survivor . I have emailed mark and hope to one day share my story but until then i know I have family within the soft white underbelly interviews and I’m not alone . I think one of my biggest assets like you stated is seeing the bigger picture ,never really judging anyone someone could be smiling or be “pretty” and be dying inside and hide so much pain and trauma and a story of survival. Thank you . 🖤
I'm surprised that Mark didn't ask her about HER MOTHER......Where was she when all this abuse was going on?? And I imagine that the police/authorities not being able to help her by prosecuting these monsters, just put an end to her pursuing joining the police force?? Anyway, God bless her for being such a kind and peaceable person after all she has endured in her life.
Yes, what about the mother?Did this child get blamed by the mother for this abuse?Many abusers blame the person they abused, as making them do it and not taking responsibility for their actions. Mothers will blame their own children just so they don't have to hold their male companions responsible....thus they don't have to be a responsible protective mother either. There is no excuse. Their is no crime greater than harming a child and the worst crime is to blame them for being abused in the 1st place.
@@Drizzly_Bear Well, I just simply think he didn't think about it because he does so many interviews, so he has other things on his mind, and it for whatever reason, didn't occur to him to ask a relevant question. I know for myself, I always think after the fact, 'Why didn't I say this or ask that......' Mark doesn't seem to hold back on saying something he wants to.
WOW! This blew me away! She is the ultimate inspiration for people who have gone through (or are going through) similar experiences. OMG.....how could those people do those things to a baby?!!! I cried as I listened, but what a strong woman! I am 100% confident she will continue to go down the right path and have a wonderfully successful life.
She is amazing. I hope she realizes how competent and resilient she is. I have so much respect for her and she deserves so many kudos for her strength through abuse. She’s made very special.❤
Until watching your videos SWU I didn’t know so many people out there have gone through what I went through as a child to adulthood. To this beautiful woman, you beat them, they didn’t win..don’t forget that! You grew up going through all this pain and suffering holding onto hope, that’s your saving grace! Hope is all we have to hold on to, it’s played a huge part in how we grew up..We believe as we went through our abuse there is something greater, something better, we were right! We can’t change these creeps, these people who are/were saposta love us and protect us, it’s their demons they choose to hold on to. We choose good, love and beauty. We didn’t give up on ourselves and we let God in our life…all along he was right there holding us up. Stay strong and don’t ever lose hope! God won’t ever let you down! All we can do is pray for these horrible people who have hurt us and those who continue to hurt others. They can’t change or take back the pain they caused, but we can pray for them..pray they never harm another, pray they seek God. Don’t ever let go of hope…I tell everyone, HOPE IS what we who have faith will wake up to one day. We will then know pure love and total peace..beauty will surround us 🙏❤️
You are the epitome of SURVIVOR but a better word is, THRIVE! You are amazing Aideliz! Keep telling your story and I hope it impacts many more people. God bless you and your children!
Aideliz it sounds like you're succeeding in life, I'm so glad you're brave enough to share your story. It will help so many people including little kids. So redemptive and motivating, wishing you the best!
This woman is AMAZING! Wow, so sad and yet so empowering for many people who have been through this! I read the book “ A child called it “ Devastating what they both have been through, and both have come out better in life than most 💕💕 FYI: NEVER let someone tell you to “ get over it “ or to “ move on “ !!! We all handle things differently, moving forward as slowly or fast as we see fit! It’s never anyone else’s place to tell someone how to do it!
Sorry you've had to go through all of this, your such a strong and inspirational human being! There's great men out here who love their daughters! Thanks for speaking.
Aideliz, I am so deeply sorry for what you have been through, when you should have had your innocence protected. I think you are an amazingly brave woman and the way you choose to live life is such a testament to your strength of character. Sending love & prayers for happiness for your life❤️🙏🏼❤️💐👑
Adeliz, great interview. You were open and to the point. I can understand how that would be freeing for people hearing you. You’ll be an excellent police officer because I believe you’d see the truth of situations others would not. Many blessings to you and yours. ❤❤❤
Hugs to you young lady.. you did not deserve such a horrible ordeal.. shame on these sick individuals.. god has the battle girl . Good luck in your career.. help is on tour side
I love her strength and courage to speak up. I also changed the way I view others' actions. I've learned to deal with road rage and try not to let those things get to me. It's a game changer. I wish more people would do that in their lives. The world would be a better place if we just tried to understand each other.
She's well on her way ,if not there already, to going from survivor to thriver mode! Way to go for taking charge of your life and changing it for the better!
Aideliz, I hope you continue your work. I am much appreciative that you are being honest. Concerning, your nightmares every night. I too had been abused every day, but fortunately, not sexually. Idk if this will work for you. I took control of myself in my dreams to prevent bad things happening in my dreams. Good luck in your healing, growing, and finding greater self mastery.
They are less frequent for sure and I now am able to keep running and im 9 out of 10 times never caught now. I also run fast in my dreams. Up untill my early 20s was I always running really slow almost in place..Thank you for your kind words. I appreciate your feedback greatly.
I hope all of your dreams come true. You deserve nothing but the best in life. Your story is incredible. Be proud of yourself for being a cycle-breaker. Sending you peace and love.
A. This woman is so strong and beautiful. I'm proud of her. B. This is completely off topic but man I miss Blockbuster so much! Movie rental places were the best.
If you can't trust your family who can you trust........ What doesn't kill You will make you stronger. You are a very strong lady. Don't trust people I don't. If you don't trust people, you will not give them the opportunity to hurt you. It's Just hard when you're a kid and you have to trust family. If you're lonely get a pet..pets are unconditional love. There Are many people that are miserable and if they're miserable, they don't want you to be happy.
What an incredibly strong, courageous, beautiful, articulate & intelligent young woman. I have no doubt you will help many people in your life. You have a gift. I’m just desperately sorry you had to go through hell first. If only the world could learn how you are able to endure a living hell yet somehow not let it destroy you. You clearly have very real struggles with your depression & anxiety & your eating disorders but thankfully you’ve never felt the need to turn to drugs or alcohol to try to escape your past. That in no way is against the many, many abuse victims who sadly are unable to do that & will do & take anything to try to escape their poor tortured minds. I wonder if there have ever been clinical studies such as brain scans to compare abuse victims who cope relatively well, to those who turn to substances to try to escape & to those who become abusers themselves. I saw a very good TV programme here in the UK about an ex footballer (soccer) who had a very serious gambling addiction. They scanned his brain whilst showing him various images. His brain responded much more actively to images of gambling than to images the majority of us would respond more to, such as nature, food and family.
I like when she said “ how can I be a police officer is I haven’t even help myself “ in other words its a lot of people becoming police officers who still deal with trauma & take out their frustration out on civilians
I think you are amazing ! Strong .resilient, beautiful! You have a lovely voice . You should have your own podcasts or something ! I could listen for hours ! Incredible story ! You are a survivor and I love that you do not represent yourself as hopeless or just a victim , but to keep your mind open !! Love that ❤ Goodluck🦋 !!
What a vulnerable testimony... and what a beautiful soul. whether therapy or not, do what you feel is best for urself! Love "never too late to speak up" i can relate to a lot of her thoughts
God bless you sweet girl. Thank you for helping not just myself but soo many people all around the world. You look like an angel💞🫶🏼🙏🏻💖 lord knows you are💗💗💗
Such a strong noble spirit to have been surrounded by broken people. The worst of her story is to have been betrayed by her father in Puerto Rico. What a piece of DUNG her father was, just Unbelievable! Many blessings to you 🙏❤️🙏
After all youve gone threw ,.. ur tough and more then that your beauitful.. keep moving forward your aspiring u and your story may god bless you and im sure the man above has many good things for you and your future..your amazing
She demonstrates that experiencing abuse does not have to lead to a life of misery and defeat. We choose how we respond.. there's always an impact..but she chose to live an inspired life, despite her trauma
Oh bless her heart.😢😢 so heartbreaking, I have a 14 year old and a 2.5 year old both girls (I say this all the time on here) but I could never imagine anyone harming them.. it’s sickening. I will never understand it.❤😢 I’m so sorry honey.
I’m glad she made the point that even though she was always smiling, there was horrible abuse behind the scenes. That’s a thing. When I began speaking out about what happened to me, one of the things that got thrown up to me by people who didn’t believe me was, “You were always smiling and cracking jokes. You were smiling in all the pictures.” It was called coping. Acting. Surviving. Whatever you have to do to get through the day with the least damage possible. Aideliz, you are lovely and an inspiration. Your kids are very fortunate to have you as a mama. And your dress is beautiful.
Just finished watching Aideliz's story. All I have to say is she's found strength by speaking about all the hell she endured. No child deserves that at all. Her story reminds me of Marisol's story, another survivor who's thriving.
This video came out 10 minutes ago at the time of this comment and is 16 minutes long. Stop the cap. You're just trying to get likes. These are real people's lives.

So happy to see that she has a very strong sense of right and wrong, didn’t stay silent with her abuse, and I’m glad the court system actually did something. I hope she continues to thrive and help others the way she wants to.
I just want to reach out and hug her. It’s not fair that innocent children have to suffer physical and sexual abuse, starvation, wars and abandonment. Children deserve so much better.

Their is no crime greater than harming a child and the worst crime is to blame them for being abused in the 1st place.
@@Drizzly_Bear Well, I just simply think he didn't think about it because he does so many interviews, so he has other things on his mind, and it for whatever reason, didn't occur to him to ask a relevant question. I know for myself, I always think after the fact, 'Why didn't I say this or ask that......' Mark doesn't seem to hold back on saying something he wants to.
WOW! This blew me away! She is the ultimate inspiration for people who have gone through (or are going through) similar experiences. OMG.....how could those people do those things to a baby?!!! I cried as I listened, but what a strong woman! I am 100% confident she will continue to go down the right path and have a wonderfully successful life.
I am awed by your strength. Remarkable. There are no appropriate words for the depth of admiration I feel for you. You have triumphed. Well done!
She is amazing. I hope she realizes how competent and resilient she is. I have so much respect for her and she deserves so many kudos for her strength through abuse. She’s made very special.❤
Until watching your videos SWU I didn’t know so many people out there have gone through what I went through as a child to adulthood. To this beautiful woman, you beat them, they didn’t win..don’t forget that! You grew up going through all this pain and suffering holding onto hope, that’s your saving grace! Hope is all we have to hold on to, it’s played a huge part in how we grew up..We believe as we went through our abuse there is something greater, something better, we were right! We can’t change these creeps, these people who are/were saposta love us and protect us, it’s their demons they choose to hold on to. We choose good, love and beauty. We didn’t give up on ourselves and we let God in our life…all along he was right there holding us up. Stay strong and don’t ever lose hope! God won’t ever let you down!
All we can do is pray for these horrible people who have hurt us and those who continue to hurt others. They can’t change or take back the pain they caused, but we can pray for them..pray they never harm another, pray they seek God.
Don’t ever let go of hope…I tell everyone, HOPE IS what we who have faith will wake up to one day. We will then know pure love and total peace..beauty will surround us 🙏❤️
You are the epitome of SURVIVOR but a better word is, THRIVE! You are amazing Aideliz! Keep telling your story and I hope it impacts many more people. God bless you and your children!
Aideliz it sounds like you're succeeding in life, I'm so glad you're brave enough to share your story. It will help so many people including little kids. So redemptive and motivating, wishing you the best!
Sending you so much love and light Aideliz!!! Healing comes in waves, and I am in awe of your strength!!
This woman is AMAZING! Wow, so sad and yet so empowering for many people who have been through this! I read the book “ A child called it “ Devastating what they both have been through, and both have come out better in life than most 💕💕
FYI: NEVER let someone tell you to “ get over it “ or to “ move on “ !!! We all handle things differently, moving forward as slowly or fast as we see fit! It’s never anyone else’s place to tell someone how to do it!
Sorry you've had to go through all of this, your such a strong and inspirational human being! There's great men out here who love their daughters! Thanks for speaking.
I’m so thankful that you told the police about what had happened. You became your own hero. I’m so thankful you have overcome.
Thank you, Aidelz, for your bravery to come forward to share your story. You're going to make an awesome Police Officer when the time comes.
My heart actually aches for her. I admire her resilience. What a QUEEN. Healing from trauma is a life long journey. Keep going love. ❤
Aideliz, I am so deeply sorry for what you have been through, when you should have had your innocence protected.
I think you are an amazingly brave woman and the way you choose to live life is such a testament to your strength of character. Sending love & prayers for happiness for your life❤️🙏🏼❤️💐👑
You are giving me stregnyh and hope to face my past
Thank you for sharing
Your si strong❤️❤️❤️
Adeliz, great interview. You were open and to the point. I can understand how that would be freeing for people hearing you. You’ll be an excellent police officer because I believe you’d see the truth of situations others would not.
Many blessings to you and yours. ❤❤❤
Hugs to you young lady.. you did not deserve such a horrible ordeal.. shame on these sick individuals.. god has the battle girl . Good luck in your career.. help is on tour side
I am amazed at the strength and resilience of this woman..prime example of how you can change your life and turn things around
I found her to be an exceptional person. Thanks for this interview. 💜
I love her strength and courage to speak up. I also changed the way I view others' actions. I've learned to deal with road rage and try not to let those things get to me. It's a game changer. I wish more people would do that in their lives. The world would be a better place if we just tried to understand each other.
She's well on her way ,if not there already, to going from survivor to thriver mode! Way to go for taking charge of your life and changing it for the better!
This girl is so mature and aware of what's wrong and right I wish her nothing but the best! God bless her and her children. 🙏❤
Aideliz,
I hope you continue your work. I am much appreciative that you are being honest.
Concerning, your nightmares every night. I too had been abused every day, but fortunately, not sexually. Idk if this will work for you. I took control of myself in my dreams to prevent bad things happening in my dreams.
Good luck in your healing, growing, and finding greater self mastery.
They are less frequent for sure and I now am able to keep running and im 9 out of 10 times never caught now. I also run fast in my dreams. Up untill my early 20s was I always running really slow almost in place..Thank you for your kind words. I appreciate your feedback greatly.
I hope all of your dreams come true. You deserve nothing but the best in life. Your story is incredible. Be proud of yourself for being a cycle-breaker. Sending you peace and love.
Aideliz, you are amazing. Your strength is mind blowing. You deserve all the good things in the world. I wish you the best.
Humans are so resilient and it’s simultaneously inspiring and absolutely heartbreaking…
You are a hero! 👸 You are going to help so many people! Maybe you could focus your portraits on survivors of childhood abuse. 🤗❤
A. This woman is so strong and beautiful. I'm proud of her. B. This is completely off topic but man I miss Blockbuster so much! Movie rental places were the best.
Her story deserves a book...
Beautiful. Thank you ❤
If you can't trust your family who can you trust........ What doesn't kill You will make you stronger. You are a very strong lady. Don't trust people I don't.
If you don't trust people, you will not give them the opportunity to hurt you. It's Just hard when you're a kid and you have to trust family.
If you're lonely get a pet..pets are unconditional love.
There Are many people that are miserable and if they're miserable, they don't want you to be happy.
Yeah hurt ppl hurt people 😢 strong headed woman, good on her god watch over her 🙏
That's not the best reason to get a pet.
What an incredibly strong, courageous, beautiful, articulate & intelligent young woman. I have no doubt you will help many people in your life. You have a gift. I’m just desperately sorry you had to go through hell first. If only the world could learn how you are able to endure a living hell yet somehow not let it destroy you. You clearly have very real struggles with your depression & anxiety & your eating disorders but thankfully you’ve never felt the need to turn to drugs or alcohol to try to escape your past. That in no way is against the many, many abuse victims who sadly are unable to do that & will do & take anything to try to escape their poor tortured minds. I wonder if there have ever been clinical studies such as brain scans to compare abuse victims who cope relatively well, to those who turn to substances to try to escape & to those who become abusers themselves. I saw a very good TV programme here in the UK about an ex footballer (soccer) who had a very serious gambling addiction. They scanned his brain whilst showing him various images. His brain responded much more actively to images of gambling than to images the majority of us would respond more to, such as nature, food and family.
I like when she said “ how can I be a police officer is I haven’t even help myself “ in other words its a lot of people becoming police officers who still deal with trauma & take out their frustration out on civilians
Our lives are so similar. I was a police officer also. I’m glad you’re okay. I’ll pray for you.
She's so strong. God truly bless her ❤️
I think you are amazing ! Strong .resilient, beautiful! You have a lovely voice . You should have your own podcasts or something ! I could listen for hours ! Incredible story ! You are a survivor and I love that you do not represent yourself as hopeless or just a victim , but to keep your mind open !! Love that ❤ Goodluck🦋 !!
What a vulnerable testimony... and what a beautiful soul. whether therapy or not, do what you feel is best for urself! Love "never too late to speak up" i can relate to a lot of her thoughts
First saw your story on tik tok. Strong woman right here ❤
What’s her TikTok
That’s crazy.. I’m from Worcester as well. It’s crazy hearing someone say that place’s name since I’ve gotten away.
God bless you sweet girl. Thank you for helping not just myself but soo many people all around the world. You look like an angel💞🫶🏼🙏🏻💖 lord knows you are💗💗💗
When she said a child called it … 😢😢😢 she’s a warrior !!
I wish this lady the best of luck
I love seeing young women who survived in a healthy way. Not a prostitute or drug addict or being abused, thank goodness.
Such a strong noble spirit to have been surrounded by broken people. The worst of her story is to have been betrayed by her father in Puerto Rico. What a piece of DUNG her father was, just Unbelievable! Many blessings to you 🙏❤️🙏
After all youve gone threw ,.. ur tough and more then that your beauitful.. keep moving forward your aspiring u and your story may god bless you and im sure the man above has many good things for you and your future..your amazing
I’ve read that book. My prayers for you to find peace. 🙏🏻♥️
She demonstrates that experiencing abuse does not have to lead to a life of misery and defeat. We choose how we respond.. there's always an impact..but she chose to live an inspired life, despite her trauma
Her story was actually inspiring how she’s not crushed by what she’s been through
Oh bless her heart.😢😢 so heartbreaking, I have a 14 year old and a 2.5 year old both girls (I say this all the time on here) but I could never imagine anyone harming them.. it’s sickening. I will never understand it.❤😢 I’m so sorry honey.
Aideliz: you're everyone's heroine....we all know you'll survive and have a great life.
I’m glad she made the point that even though she was always smiling, there was horrible abuse behind the scenes. That’s a thing. When I began speaking out about what happened to me, one of the things that got thrown up to me by people who didn’t believe me was, “You were always smiling and cracking jokes. You were smiling in all the pictures.” It was called coping. Acting. Surviving. Whatever you have to do to get through the day with the least damage possible.
Aideliz, you are lovely and an inspiration. Your kids are very fortunate to have you as a mama. And your dress is beautiful.
That dress alone speaks volumes about the type of person she has become.
it all starts with the parents.
Just finished watching Aideliz's story. All I have to say is she's found strength by speaking about all the hell she endured. No child deserves that at all. Her story reminds me of Marisol's story, another survivor who's thriving.
This video came out 10 minutes ago at the time of this comment and is 16 minutes long. Stop the cap. You're just trying to get likes. These are real people's lives.
You posted your reply 6 minutes after it was released.
@@freedom4all108 I have the SWU app which show stories hours before they post on RUclips. This is not a post to gain likes. Calm down.
Bruhh, relax. It’s a comment… people crack me up with what gets them going. Wow
@@Brenduhhh420thank you!!! I watched her interview on the SWU app on my Roku which was posted around 8pm last night. Mark always put them on there first before loading onto RUclips. That guy must've slept on the wrong side of the bed this morning.
What an amazing strong woman! I wish you , beautiful soul , a wonderful life , if anyone deserves it it is you ❤big hug from someone out of the Netherlands who admires you
So happy to see that she has a very strong sense of right and wrong, didn’t stay silent with her abuse, and I’m glad the court system actually did something. I hope she continues to thrive and help others the way she wants to.
She is such a warrior. Aideliz, do everything you can to protect your kids from animals like the ones you’ve encountered.
