Wait until she sees alt culture 😂😂😂 but protect this one at all costs 💕💕❤️❤️

[@valentinamartinez4213]

@@mikachan365 yes!!

[@scout-0853]

People are wondering why she looks so much better after. Most of the people in these shows have so much stress induced acne and aren’t very healthy in general. When hey go out of it, they start healing

[@viashenmoodley3284]

*Also makeup

[@pugassassin5591]

@@viashenmoodley3284 yeah they actually care for themselves

[@wowso4]

yuwo *_* very true stress can make you look very unhealthy

[@southernbelladonna78]

It's called beauty products and happiness.

[@Phlossyful]

Also, medical care. Once they leave they're able to see doctors with more regularity, including dermatologists.

[@smoore506]

The mother seemed way more accepting than other moms.

[@everettbarlow4092]

Sammi Jo Barlow it’s because all the leadership of the religion are in jail and people are starting to loosen up a bit and see that there is so much more to life.

[@erindolieslager3421]

For sure I think it made leaving a little easier. I cant even imagine leaving and not being able to come back

[@everettbarlow4092]

Erin Dolieslager yeah it sure made leaving much easier for me.

[@kiboxgmz]

i am happy you are out everett i hope eveyone will come to the relisation that there is so much more in this big beautiful world

[@latasharoddan7202]

She probably wants to leave her self 😂. I pray that these people wake up mentally and get there life back.

[@giot8067]

When she hugged her mom that was so heartbreaking cause you know the mom truly wants what’s best for her but in her mind their way of living is the only right way and to have your child leave what you been raised to believe to be right must be so scary Good for Maryann for recognizing her potential and for having the courage to stand up and out for herself.

[@raine420]

Gio T I never thought of it that way..

[@ellachastain4901]

People don't understand why it's so hard for them to leave home (like why they cry) but really that's really the only people that have ever "loved" them. It would be so hard

[@earondianna9353]

A lot of them also have no eduction or money. So leaving is hard because they also have no knowledge of the outside world and they never get to see their families.

[@ellachastain4901]

@@earondianna9353 yeah, that's another really good reason why.

[@littlelambinparadise]

Yeah, they want to leave because of the practicing of the religion they don’t want the leave their family.

[@mayablossom5218]

Never seen a mother so accepting and loving when their child leaves.

[@everettbarlow4092]

Maya Blossom That’s how my mom was when I left. It’s because the leaders, Warren and Lyle Jeff’s, are in jail and people are starting to see that there is more to life .

Probably because deep down she knows it's not safe for her to stay.

[@julieg25]

I saw one clip where a mom left.

[@ellieblackhurst511]

I’ve seen a lot of these and she seems like she is really in touch with reality and that’s awesome. You can tell that she has an actual personality. Wish her the best, she deserves it.

this girl seems like she got a strong intuition (:

[@theresenydahl9531]

You go, MaryAnn, go and get yourself your own life and make it a happy one, you deserve it🌷🌷🌷🌷

[@peacelife]

Wow she prob the most independent and modern mind thinking out of all of the episodes I have seen. It made me cry watching seen she said goodbye to her mom.

[@sunny4890]

Anyone start crying as soon as the little girl ran away?

[@lindsaydale307]

I started bawling when the mom told her mom said remember the good memories

[@cher9626]

Yeah you can tell she's a good mom bug brainwashed by this cult. I used to be part of a Christian cult. Nothing to this extreme though. I'm just glad we left when I was 13 and could be a normal teenager and now a adult

[@TwerkingTina]

Something I noticed about this show is that most of the people that want to leave have some type of accent and they kind of sound like they pronounce some words incorrectly but once it recaps them after they leave they have a different more clear voice 🤔

[@PovertyD]

Sure just like people tend to pick up British or Australian accents if they're there for some years. They can listen and learn you know?

[@earondianna9353]

They also have no formal education inside the compounds.

[@harlowitter3060]

I kinda noticed an accent too

[@georgia.x8378]

they have no education and never taught to speak full english so try they are caught in the system

[@reggieburkes4471]

The Amish also have an accent. When you grow up in an isolated society you form an accent.

[@crystalchavez4576]

The last pic of her they showed made me so happy You can see the happiness in her face

[@hannahstahl1857]

She’s probably thinking that her daughter is free and is gonna be happy but she’s not allowed to outwardly think like that

[@lulu2820]

The lady who helped her escape with the blonde hair is so pretty! 😱

The order girls are so beautiful and the FLDS ones seem more.... Homely (not trying to be mean at all)

She was extremely brave and Warren Jeffs cannot hurt anyone anymore.

[@eeltenaj19]

Apparently Jeffs tells his brother what god tells him during the night. He still hurts people from his jail cell. At least that's what the show portrays.

[@Perceptionreflection]

She's so strong and free thinking, I know she must be doing so well now. Outright calling him a pedophile like that? That's bravery and strength like many of these women never are taught. Not that they aren't capable, but it's... it's like Cinderella. The cruelty, the isolation, and still so kind and smart? That's one in a million.

[@lateesha8174]

"Jeans and a Tshirt kinda girl." Me too Maryann

[@Monica-fj5jz]

I really felt this escape... I hope she’s doing well and that her and all those who have escaped are receiving assistance building a life for themselves.

[@celestehallam4054]

I don’t understand why they gather up belongings. I view this as the same as a battered person situation. You leave with the clothes on your back. These rescuers are putting themselves into danger. All this stuff can be replaced.

[@celestehallam4054]

Nyesha Harris it’s a dangerous situation and they are dealing with people who are completely nuts. Anything is possible.

[@celestehallam4054]

Maybe they get more views if they add the danger element.

[@NaoshieImonia]

Shut up , let them live their lives and make others happy

[@emmyrip8615]

Celeste Hallam how the heck could they afford anything

[@celestehallam4054]

Emmy RIP The videos on this channel are part of an entertainment company and that’s why they do the drama about the possessions. The whole thing is orchestrated. If you read the small print just under the video then you will see it for yourself. Given that, who really knows if they need these possessions. Maybe they make so much money by being actors that they don’t need the possessions. Nevertheless, I walked out of my abusive marriage with the clothes on my back and I was 3 months pregnant. Yeah it was hard and I cried a lot when my kid was little, but that was better than allowing him to punch me in my pregnant belly and tell me, “I don’t care about that baby.” If he acted like that before the kid was even born, I feel he would have murdered my kid and that’s why I left with nothing. I live in Akron Ohio and we have a generous community support network so I was able to get the necessities for my kid and myself, but I do remember sleeping on a lawn chair and having it dig into my pregnant sides. But I eventually got a bed . . . Back then I was 30 years old so I could take a lot of discomfort, but now I’m an old woman and I can’t take it.

[@milksips3876]

How independent and questioning this young women was, not to mention brave for opening calling Warren Jeffs a criminal as he is was inspiring. Her mums caring reaction may show a bit why her daughter was so strong.

[@heh2084]

Oh god this was heartbreaking, I started crying when she had to leave her mom

[@jazminestryder]

That really seems like that poor girl could probably have told her mother long ago that she wanted to leave, and got her ready for it - her mom seems like she was just accepting and understanding but heartbroken all the same.

[@seranathenecromancer3470]

If she told her Mum, someone else will know. The way the neighbourhood works is that everyone is always checking everyone else. If you truly believe in the religion and you’re harbouring someone who wants to leave, you end up l

"Is that her?" She's the only woman walking in there in a prairie dress, that's her.

They have more than one mom being a polygamist. Her mom is probably her birth mom the one she called mother out to the creek is probably one of the other wives.

MaryAnn is such an adorable little spitfire, you can tell that the brainwashing just wouldn't stick to someone like that.

Perhaps ( deep down ) the mother also wants to leave. It was incredibly decent of her not to try to dissuade her from leaving, by using reverse psychology or emotional blackmail.

[@hellishboy1517]

For, those who can understand those society's I will tell this. My, family has almost crushed thanks to this man me and a couple of my male sibling's runaways my older brother had a business and wanted to provide education for me that was one of the reasons. After I run away I have been crushed physically and mentally my dad had 12 wives and 70 sons u can imagine as the youngest what it is I was 8 at this time. My father and the others won't try to reach out till I had to take the pills and slice my vines the next thing I saw was hospital my dad whit hands in his head and his wives next to him. The doctor said I was lucky the rest of my siblings had come into my brother California villas. (That exactly Warren Jeffs doing separate families) thanks to the fact I was European citizen I suited Jeffs family to pay me 900 000$

[@mikmak2102]

I’m surprised her mother was still comforting considering she was leaving. I hope she gets that happy life she wants. The loss of stress and worry would do her wonders.

i just wanna know what kind of danger are they in for leaving? like whats gonna happen?

[@heatherlynncarter4285]

kendal and alyssa they have a militia type organization that is known to be hostile to outsiders, and they sometimes snatch people who are thinking of leaving the cult and send them off to “houses of repentance” hundreds of miles away, where they are pretty closely guarded and not really treated nicely.

[@nadines1889]

They also kill apostates and bury the bodies out in the desert, never to be found

[@celestehallam4054]

Camilla Marino yep I believe that. They don’t brag about this because they know better.

[@celestehallam4054]

Yes they separate parents from children for acts of disobedience like trying to leave and for other unjustified reasons. There is no justification in separating families, but they do it all the time.

[@Head82]

The things they're capable of are unfathomable. They will do anything to keep members from leaving and sharing the shameful things they do. I've heard a few stories and believe them where others said the people were crazy. They're not crazy in my opinion, what they tell is very very very much possible. In years past you'd also believe them too if you went to the creek and simply pulled off barely into the town. Within seconds vehicles would appear and watch and if there were any women and children nearby they would run into their homes.

[@barneyhole4732]

You go MaryAnn 💕

[@Regiwulf]

I've seen a few of these and I'm wondering if these girls can meet up with rescuers then why can't they just go on their own?

[@marysc1308]

Bendrakon The rescuers have resources and are able to provide them with housing and connections once they leave. The rescuers also provide them with support when they try to get their possessions and leave.

When the mother appeared at the door I immediately thought of Isabella from Promissed Neverland

It's sad that some human beings have the ability to brain wash others in believing their faults information.
